    Re: 37 Things You May Not Know

    Supposedly Guinness World Records gets about 5 calls a month with people telling them that they can lick their elbows because they were told it was impossible but can do it.  I have a really long tongue and I can do it, though I have a friend who can lick their elbow even with a short tongue.

    My opinion stands, you will just pass out if you hold your breath.

    I agree, theres a certain point where your brain is starved too much of oxygen and so it conks out. However, the moment you conk out, you no longer have control over your body, thus you can't hold your breath no more, And so your wonderfully automatic breathing system kicks into gear again, just in time Smile

    I apologize for the science lesson, i know no one wants to hear it Stick out tongue
