Here are 10 creepy facts, because I have no idea what to write.

1. A human head remains conscious for around 20 seconds after being decapitated. Wonder who found that and how-

2. A body decomposes four times faster in water than on land. 

3.  Within three days of the death, the enzymes from your digestive system begin to digest your body. 

4. About 153,000 people die every day. But around double, that number is born every day. Hello, population problem.

5. When a person dies, their hearing is the last sense to go. So you probably could hear your doctor tell your parents/guardians, "I'm sorry, they passed."

6. Men who are hanged to death have an erection called rigour Erectus. Pretty awkward if you ask me.

7.  Dead bodies swell up like balloons after about four days, due to the release of gasses and liquids. Probably the reason why they float in water.

8. The Zoroastrian Parsi community in India offers its dead to vultures rather than burying/burning them. This has Prometheus written all over it.

9. Left handed people die three years faster than the right handed people. I'm sorry lefties.

10. The Turritopsis Dohrnii Jellyfish is the only officially known immortal creature in the world. We don't need no jellyfish world domination in 2022.
