Er, no. Nikola Tesla had no hand in inventing the light bulb, whereas Edison made the first commercially viable one. You can see several people who worked on incandescent light bulbs here, however.

No, Tesla invented the light bulb, Edison made it commercially available.

Link proof.

That talks about the fluorescent lamp. Although it is commonly used today and referred to as a "bulb", it is different from the traditional idea of an incandescent light bulb which was invented and commercialised long before the fluorescent lamp anyway.

I can't find an article on this because it's a less known fact. I've read in books, I don't remember the name, and I feel an argument coming on.....let's talk about something else....

Dogs are daltonic. Their reds, greens, and oranges aren't perceptible as those colors, but they see them in their yellow to blue spectrum of color.

The heart never gets tired.

The sound of the beating of the heart is the sound of the flaps opening and closing inside the heart.

Your spinal cord is as thin as a pencil.

If you drink too much water you die.

Without plasma in your bloodstream, your blood would be like tomato paste.

If you spread out all of the alveoli (tiny sacs the lungs are made of), they would almost cover up the area of a tennis court.


If someone tries to prove me wrong on this, I will be depressed. THen angry. Then depressed again.
Repeat steps 1-3.

If you took all the fluids out of the world's population - everyone could be condensed to the size of an ice cube.

It is a superstition that dog saliva helps heal cuts faster. At least in my neighborhood.

I don't know about dogs, but that's certainly true for wolves. Or at least, they disinfect wounds.

Wouldn't disinfecting wound make them heal faster? I dunno.

A certain kind of carpenter ant explodes and releases toxic fluid when threatened.

And also yes, I've heard that dog saliva myth when I was asking my friends about what I should do to help some cuts that I'd gotten. It sounded kind of suspicious so I didn't bring my dog over to lick them anyway e_e

Hehe, yeah. I have this really big gash on my knee from soccer. It hurt too much to let my dog lick it, so I just let it scab over and drenched it in Hydrogen Peroxide.
