Humans fart at a speed of 9.5 km per hour. Find out this and many more weird facts about your own body?

Human body is the greatest of mysterious objects in the earth. In this blog I will be sharing some weird facts about the human body. I bet you have probably never heard of these facts.

1. Length of circulatory system
The total length of our circulatory system stretches to an amazing 60,000 miles. That is more than twice the distance around the Earth. The central nervous system is connected to every part of the body by 43 pairs of nerves.

2. Sneezing Speed Can you believe that you sneeze at  speeds of 100 miles per hour or more? Yeah but its true. This gives you a valid point to cover your mouth and prevent someone from being attacked of microbes at a speed of 100 miles per hour.

3. Fart A typical fart is composed of about 59% nitrogen, 21% hydrogen, 9% carbon dioxide, 7% methane and 4%oxygen. Only about 1% of a fart contains hydrogen sulphide gas and mercaptan, which contain sulphur, and the sulphur is what makes your fart to stink. The average human farts 14 times a day which is enough to fill a medium sized balloon. Humans farts at an average speed of 9.5 km per hour. Even dead bodies of human can fart for 3 hours after death. Unbelievable but true that women's farts smells worse than men's farts. But dear men ,don't be complacent enough because you fart more often than women. Tighter anus means louder farts. Intensity of farts can be found by looking at asses. Tighter ass gives louder farts.

4. Kidneys The length of nephrons in both kidneys when placed end to end horizontally  will cover a distance of 16 kilometres. Kidneys pump around 400 gallons of recycled blood everyday.

5.Brain Your brain contains about 100 billion neurons which would take you over 3,000 years to count them all. Whenever you dream, laugh, think, see, or move, it’s all because of these  tiny neuron transmitting signals. Neurons send info to your brain at more than 150 miles (241 kilometres) per hour. When a bee lands on your bare foot, Sensory neurons in your skin relay this information to your spinal cord and brain at a speed of more than 150 miles (241 kilometres) per hour. Your brain then uses motor neurons to transmit the message back through your spinal cord to your foot to shake the bee off quickly. Motor neurons can relay this information at more than 200 miles (322 kilometres) per hour.

6. Intestines In humans, the small intestine is about 6 metres or 20 feet long and the large intestine is 1.5 metres or 5 feet long

7. Nails Nails of Men tends to grow faster than the nails of  women. The growth of nails is faster in summer than in winters. Women’s nail grow much faster than anyone during pregnancy.

8. Hairs The density of human hair per square inch is even more than that of chimpanzees and apes. This may sound strange as none of us wants to look hairy but if you look through a magnifying glass you can see a lot of hairy pores in your skin.

9. Body odour The human body has 50 thousand sweat glands that can produce up to one litre of sweat a day and release harmful toxins.  The groin and the armpits are the areas that produce the majority of odour. East Asians (Chinese, Koreans, and Japanese) have fewer apocrine sweat glands compared to people of other descent, and the lack of these glands make East Asians less prone to body odour.

10. Bones There are 206 bones in human body if which  27 bones found in each hand. Femur (Thigh Bone) is the longest bone. Ankle bone is the most breakable bone. It can break even while running. Evel Knievel , the pioneer of motorcycle long jumping exhibitions, had suffered 433 bone fractures by end of 1975. In the winter of 1976 he was seriously injured during a televised attempt to jump a tank full of sharks at the Chicago amphitheatre. He decided to retire from major performances as a result.
