RANDOMN: Bet You Didn't Know

Here is a break from the deep thoughts.

Did you know that:

The 50 tallest mountains in the world are all in Asia.

The lowest temperature on Earth (-128.6 F) was recorded in Antarctica.

The surface of the Atlantic Ocean is saltier than the surface of the Pacific Ocean.

The Great Wall of China spans roughly 4,500 miles--that's almost as long as the continent of Africa.

About two-thirds of all known tornadoes in the world occur in the United States.

The minute hand on London's Big Ben clock travels about 118 miles a year.

Oregon's D River is only 120 feet long--shorter than an Olympic-size swimming pool.

Smile and share it.
