Ripley's Believe It or Not by Ripley’s Believe It or Not! for January 20, 2018

Are the seals embarrassed because they have no ears, or did they drop the beach ball??

how many pounds (or even tons) of mortar did it take to lay those ten million bricks to build the ESB?

I saw a show on History Channel about how they built it. They put a lunchroom on the upper floors because it took too long for the workers to get all the way down and back up during lunch.

I already knew about the Waffle House intruder.

Looks like they’re rednecks too.

Only took a hand full of box cutters to bring down two taller buildings.

I wonder how many bricks it to to build the World Trade Center?

America needs the Norway seals.

Fort Jefferson is a massive but unfinished coastal fortress. It is the largest brick masonry structure in the Americas,23 and is composed of over 16 million bricks, the building covers 16 acres (6.5 ha).4 Among United States forts, only Fort Monroe in Virginia and Fort Adams in Rhode Island are larger. The fort is located on Garden Key in the lower Florida Keys within the Dry Tortugas National Park, 68 miles (109 km) west of the island of Key West. The Dry Tortugas are part of Monroe County, Florida, United States. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fort_Jefferson_(Florida)

Depending on the circumstances, the "whole staff’ of a WH might be a whopping two.

As they say: If you want the things well done, do them yourself.

I bet they hired a new bunch of workers at that Waffle House!

I was at the top of the Empire Bldg. in 1959 seems like we had to get on several elevators to get to the top.

Alex was offered a job by Waffle House Corp.

How many bricks did it take to construct the Chrysler building?

and Trump wants all those walruses to come to the US

“Entire staff” was actually one employee according to this source: http://www.nydailynews.com/news/national/waffle-house-customer-meal-employee-sleeps-article-1.3672995

Ripley’s is making it seem as if more than one person was found asleep which would be pretty odd and may have indicated CO2 poisoning or something. But alas, it was just worded incorrectly.

Then Alex Bowen passed out because the place was full of carbon monoxide from the malfunctioning oven vent.
