Ripley's Believe It or Not by Ripley’s Believe It or Not! for May 28, 2019

So since we make up only 7% of the people who have ever lived, where is the space for all of those past souls. That kind of makes a good case for reincarnation (kind of like recycling).

I choose not to believe the penguin urine claim. But how much of the glaciers do they claim is made of penguin poop?

What would be considered point A to point B on a Chinese atlas that 250 miles? Beijing to Hong Kong? (My Chinese geography isn’t that good.)

a few selected glaciers,

I’ve always wondered what do polar bears do. There’s no woods in the arctic.

Now we know why antarctic ice looks a wee bit yellowish.

Speaking of penguins, I’ve always wondered what do polar bears do. There’s no woods in the arctic.

so does your brain for you to believe that. where did you spend your earlier lives?

Who figured out the penguin thing? As for the seismometer it was shown on a show I watched, it may have been a Mythbusters episode. It had to do with jars and a ball. If the Earth shook, the ball would move and fall into one of the jars. That way they could tell direction. I forget how they did the force. Maybe more than one ball and the others were gradually bigger.

Earth. And beyond.

93% of the total human population is dead!!!!!!!!!! OMG!!!! The end is near! Repent!

Scary to think about how many people will be on this earth 100 years from now.

so does this ‘believe it or not’ prove or negate Charles Darwin’s THEORY survival of the fittest? OR does it mean that humans are the one species that can manipulate the world around them to allow even the ‘unfit’ to survive? News after the game!!!

A reminder from Mother Nature about eating yellow snow.

But we have no idea of pre ice age humans ….how many or much of anything. There were a whole lot more than we think before that comet.

Would have thought that the debate here would be: How far back in time in the evolution of humans do they count?

The easy answer is in Genesis, except that it is a fairy tale.

Penguins, being birds, don’t pee, they poop. Nor do they live on glaciers. On the other hand read this article about Danco Island, where effectively the surface may well be ‘enriched’ to a significant extent by penguins doing their recycling duties. (https://www.nationalgeographic.com/adventure/adventure-blog/2016/03/25/penguins-antarctica-danco-island/)

3 per cent penguin urine? I find that hard to believe! A lot of that ice is miles thick! Maybe they meant 3 millipercent?

It’s worth noting that the reason the population is so high today is due in large part to vaccinations becoming common roughly a century ago. It took nearly 10,000 years of civilization to bring the population up to about 1 billion, but in just over 100 years we went up to 7 billion.

So-o-o, I guess 93% of all humans that have ever died – are dead right now!…
