F1 cars generate so much down force that they can drive upside down at speed.
actually they only have to be going 81mph to have sufficient downforce.

The microwave was invented after a researcher walked by a radar tube and a chocolate bar melted in his pocket.

The blue whale can produce sounds up to 188 decibels. This is the loudest sound produced by a living animal and has been detected as far away as 530 miles.

The Amazon river has more flow than any other river in the world. So much that the next ten rivers in the list (of flow) combined still don't match it.

The human body generates electricity.

And every object in existance generates its own gravitational field relative to its mass.
