Oranges were originally green. ...
Going to work is more dangerous than going to war. ...
Russia has more surface area than Pluto. ...
You can fire an arrow around an object to hit a target. ...
There is no specific time zone at the South Pole. ...
The first ever 3D film was released in cinemas in 1922.

  • You can still buy green oranges here, most get yellowish but not all. Its darn annoying when they place them next to lemons, as sometimes you mistake both.
  • This statistic is probably due to the fact that people work everyday but wars are very rare in comparison (same reason more people die in car accidents, etc).
  • And its no longer called a planet because of that Smiley. Currently the correct number of planets in the Solar System is 8, there are at least 3 "accepted" Dwarf planets.
  • Boomerang arrow? Interesting, citation needed...
  • The south pole and the north pole simply don't quite match the rest of the planet surface. It would be easier if it followed a single timezone, but each country putting a base insist of following their own, even tho it doesn't really make sense.
  • Mentioning the title is overrated? According to wikipedia, it was: The Power of Love.

What makes the South Pole more complex, for example, the North?
