Ripley's Believe It or Not by Ripley’s Believe It or Not! for April 29, 2019

Hindus can’t eat cattle’s flesh, but they think it’s okay when it comes to orally ingesting its bodily fluids?

Do the deerstalkers then use rifles to hunt the deer or are they just trying to give them heart attacks? And since there are no “bulls” or “dogs” involved, shouldn’t this really be referred to as “para-shooting”?

People still drink human urine for medical reasons.

Of course bees can fly higher than Mount Everest. Mount Everest can’t fly.

So Bumblebee can fly higher than Mt. Everest. What about Optimus Prime? LOL!

No surprise about the cow urine, after all pregnant mare urine has been used for birth control in humans for decades. Look up Premarin. really.

And so was born Cow Pee Soup!

Time to milk some cow puns, folks?

That explains those bug smears on the windshield of my SR-71.

Can’t say as I blame you, bees.

Well, I can safely say that I can jump higher than Mt Everest since Mt. Everest can’t jump.

(Isn’t English wonderful?) :)

Maybe that high up the bees can escape the Monsanto neonicotinoids. :(

According to all known laws of aviation, there is no way that a bee should be able to fly. Its wings are too small to get its fat little body off the ground. The bee, of course, flies anyways. Because bees don’t care what humans think is impossible.

Flying higher than a bee? What about Cheech and Chong ??

Assuming any healthy animal’s blood is generally pathogen free, the urine would also be sterile, but I also would rather avoid it.

The bee thing was done by putting the poor things in a box and sucking the air out to simulate the pressure at altitudes of up to 30,000 ft (only some survived…). However the experimenters admit that the bees wouldn’t have survived in the real world because the temperature at that height is too low. Another case of ‘More research needed’ click-bait experimentation.

I hope this puts to rest the “bumblebees can’t fly myth.” That was based on a quick “back of an envelope calculation” with incomplete information.

I’m amazed at the Bumble Bees. They’re not even suppose to be able to fly aerodynamically, but they do! This just makes the lil critters more amazing!

So how high can Mt. Everest fly?

Okay, so who started the cow’s urine thing, and were their stomach problems due to their ingesting random things to begin with?

premarin is not a birth control,, it is a hormone prescribed for post menopausal women, mainly to control hot flashes. but it most certainly is NOT a birth control. (answered by my friend A. Arnold, RN,ob/gyn PA)

might be better than the bleach drinkers in Washington state

It doesn’t cure anything, but the taste makes you not care about being sick…

…and when the bees reach the jet stream they can pass a fighter jet…

No wonder bumblebees stare at us for so long. They are studying us to consider excitement ratings.

Because Mount Everest can’t fly!
