So it was back in December when I made a blog regarding interesting facts of Life. There were a few facts which I laid down but there is so much more happening things that goes around and we don't know about most of those things. It's important to pay attention to the world and the facts that are out there. Here are a few more interesting facts that you would like to know about and might not know already:-
Indonesia: Land of smallest people in the entire world
Indonesia is a country which is setting new benchmarks in terms of development. They are reaching new heights there but when it comes to the height of people over there, it has to be amongst the shortest folks around the globe. The average adult height in Indonesia is 5'1. This is a rare feat for Indonesia and although the people are short, they are capable of doing huge things.
Microsoft headquarters: The quietest room in the world
Located at Washington DC, Microsoft headquarters isn't entirely the quietest building. But a room over there which happens to be the lab of it is really quiet. There's literally no voice that is going around in this room and when one enters it, there's a unique sort of energy that it provides which is deafening to the ears. It might seem like the strangest place in the world at the same point of time.
The longest place name comprises 85 letters
Yes, you have heard it absolutely right. There's a place whose name would require an eternity for you to get it right. This place is located at New Zealand and is called Taumatawhakatangihangakoauauotamateaturipukakapikimaungahoronukupokaiwhenuakitanatahu. I have just copy pasted it, relax. You need to give the credits to the people living there who actually get the pronunciation right. This is one of the most interesting facts, isn't it?
The coldest temperature ever: -144 degrees
This happened in a place called Fahrenheit. It is located in Antarctica and you can expect the temperature to go really down in this continent. But -144 degrees is way too much for its own good. This is one of those interesting facts which was discovered during a study conducted during the period of 2004 and 2016. You stay in this temperature for a minute and you can say goodbye to your dear life.
The most popular name in the world: Muhammad
You would think some name like John or Chris or Matt would be the most popular name in the world. What if I told you more than 150 million people across the globe have been named Muhammad? It is the most used name in the entire world all thanks to Islam and the norms that are set around in this religion which makes Muhammad a really common name and sets it apart in some of the most interesting facts.
Most pets in a household
New Zealand is the country with most pets in a household. There is about 68 percent of the New Zealand population who have pets at their home. They are followed by United States of America where people are very fond of having pets as well.
Tokyo: Most crowded city of the world
This is one city which is first on my list in the cities I want to visit. But interestingly, it happens to be the largest city in the world as well. There are about 37 million inhabitants in Tokyo. Imagine a small country like Japan surpassing China, India, USA in terms of a crowded city. Tokyo has done that and the biggest reason behind that is the fact that the standard of living and cost of living have the balance which would allow the people to save the money as well here in Tokyo. This is why it is the most loved city in the world as well.
So these are some of the interesting facts that you might or might not know already but you are sure to get intrigued by it. There's a lot more to be discovered and another blog might be on the way on the same topic, who knows. Until then, keep a check on your health, stay quarantined and stay hooked into the blogs by Ajtalk!
