For years, scientists have been perplexed by a peculiar phenomenon occurring on the hills of Ladakh. When vehicles are parked in neutral gear, they inexplicably move uphill at a speed of 10-15 kmph.

It's actually that about 200 feral cats live in Disneyland to help control the rodent population in the park.

Helium has the ability to work against gravity.

When helium is cooled to near-absolute zero temperatures (-460 degrees Fahrenheit or -273 degrees Celsius), it becomes a superfluid, which means it can flow without friction. It can literally climb walls for gods sake!

Bananas are radioactive.

Bananas have naturally high-levels of potassium and a small fraction of all potassium is radioactive. Consuming one banana would deliver a total dose of 0.01 millirem (0.1 microsieverts) of radiation. This is a very small amount of radiation.

The largest and deepest sinkhole in the world is Xiaozhai Tiankeng, in Fengjie, China. Its name means something like "well of heaven".

With its 662 meters deep, 626 meters long and 537 meters wide, it is one of the most impressive natural attractions on Earth. In addition to a great variety of fauna and flora, it is home to an underground river that measures a total of 8.5 km that ends in a spectacular waterfall. In the rainy season, a waterfall is also generated at the mouth of the sinkhole.

The script for the movie “The Terminator” was sold for $1.

Buzz Lightyear's original name was Lunar Larry.

As with most initial design concepts, they tend to change over time. What Disney fanatics may not be aware of is the fact that Buzz Lightyear was originally named "Lunar Larry," and his early sketches look almost unrecognizable from the Toy Story fan favorite that audiences have come to know and adore. Lunar Larry doesn't quite have the same ring to it as Buzz Lightyear, but early sketches are interesting reminders of just how far the Buzz Lightyear development has come.

As seen in early designs (pictured above), Lunar Larry features the "LL" insignia on his spacesuit, which shows the complete redesign of Buzz Lightyear's entire concept -- including the name -- to give life to the image that Disney ultimately agreed upon. Other vastly different appearances were considered for the character alongside many sketches that slowly amounted to the final rendition of the loveable space ranger. As the images progressed, the character began to resemble the irreplaceable Buzz Lightyear.

The Japanese monarchy is the oldest continuous hereditary monarchy in the world.

I have been dabbling in learning over 10 languages and this is a little fun fact that seems apparent from all this learning I've done: nouns for (most often) technological innovations are generally the same across languages based on the globally dominant language of the time.

If it is not distinct to a region, it will have its own unique name.

Example: Pizza Zulu: ipizza Scots Gaelic: piotsa Spanish: pizza Russian: пицца (phonetically still sounds like 'pizza') Chinese: 比萨 (pi-sa) Arabic: بيتزا (bit-za)

Not original, therefor different in most languages: Bread Zulu: isinkwa Scots Gaelic: aran Spanish: pan Russian: хлеб (khleb) Chinese: 面包 (Miànbāo) Arabic: خبز (khubz)

Believe it or not...

The fun: Taxes are voluntary, always have been, everywhere! And I bet you'll not find any law or legislation that define the opposite.

The fact: governments and dictatorships enforce tax collection with treats and various strategies to make citizens believe they are forced to pay.

Note: it isn't the payment of tax that's voluntary. Rather, it's the manner in which citizens submit their own taxes. Citizens have the obligation to file tax returns because already under contract with whatever Gov Corporation, but no one force anyone to be a citizen, an employee of the Gov.

Honey never spoils. Archaeologists have found pots of honey in ancient Egyptian tombs that are over 3,000 years old and still perfectly edible! This is due to honey's low moisture content and acidic pH, which create an environment in which bacteria and microorganisms cannot thrive.

Zealand - have tattooed their faces for centuries. The marks are called 'tà moko', and are etched with 'uhi' chisels instead of needles to leave grooves along with the ink. The pigment used was soot obtained from burning kahikatea, or white pine, sometimes mixed with kauri gum or soot from the oily koromiko (hebe) shrub. The true form is sacred, unique to each person. Ta moko reflects an individual's whakapapa (ancestry) and personal history. Traditionally, men received Mataora on their faces - as a symbol of nobility. As maori believe the head is the most sacred part of the body, facial tattoos have special significance.
