  1. Humans in peak condition can outrun any animal on earth in a marathon - Did you ever think that'd be possible? Wow, yeah even if I was in peak condition, I still think outrunning a cheetah in a marathon might be a little tough (source).
  2. You cannot own pets in certain cities of Iceland -Well, it looks like I won't be making a trip to Iceland anytime soon. Just think about all the pets we have: dogs, cats, birds, lizards, turtles, fishes, ect... In Iceland all of that would be gone (source).
  3. Alcohol kills more people than all illegal drugs combined -If you really think about it this ludicrous fact does make a lot of sense. Most people (Of legal Age) do drink regularly, but its not really typical for someone to do drugs regularly if even at all (source).
  4. 90% of U.S. money has traces of cocaine on it -If you have any cash in your wallet it most likely has traces of cocaine on it. This is mostly due to drug dealers using bills to snort cocaine, ....yuck (source).
  5. Lobsters are immortal if not killed by outside forces -That's right, lobsters are technically immortal. They show no signs of aging or sickness and can live without food. External forces such as other animals killing them are one of the only ways they can die (source).
  6. There are already more than 250 people cryopreserved (Frozen Alive) in hopes future technology will bring them back to life -You know what, if they have the money to do that good for them. They're clearly thinking ahead and it could end up being a good idea (source).
  7. Moaning Myrtle portrayed in the Harry Potter series was actually played by 37 year old actress -I honestly am shocked by this one. Moaning Myrtle sounded like she was 10 years old! Guess it was pretty good acting and pretty good aging (source).
  8. We take over 380 billion photos a year -Yeah I guess you could say with: Instagram, Facebook, Vine, and selfies all about this fact makes a lot of sense (source).
  9. Tupac Shakurs ashes were smoked by his closest friends -To be honest I'm a little disgusted by this one. That's a lot of dedication by some really close friends (source).
  10. Most of the time, cats only meow to communicate with humans - not other cats -Huh, interesting, I bet their asking for food (source).
  11. The song happy birthday was copyrighted up till around February of 2016-Yeah, well if people took this seriously I bet that copyrighted person would be a billionaire (source).

You may not know how to react in a situation where a co-worker does something crazy (like put your office supplies in jello) but thanks to "The Office," now you'll have an idea how to behave ifsomething like that should happen.

Here are just a few of the things that religious Office watchers can expect to learn.
