Did you know that... ?

*Only few planes (small ones, 2 seated most) in world uses Rocket engines and all those r made by civilians. Engine itself on those planes is not bigger than a sodacan, but it can push plane faster than 500kmh. and i mean ROCKET engines not Jet or Turbines. Rocket engine does not need air to work unlike jet and turbines. rocket engine uses special fuel/air mixture. just like shuttles.

*Air speed record is over 11000kmh and plane that can go that fast has no moving parts at all in engine. Engine uses Hypersonic air to work, and ofcourse fuel. Those kind of engines can't even work on slower speeds because they would overheat. (those engines uses hypersonic air to cool themselves)

*one of the fastest land speed maker is ''Eagle'' (vehicle) and it has titanium wheels, since rubber cant take such a speed (heat). It has over 40000hp and brakes never touch the wheel. It uses electromagnetic brakes. because if they would then even titanium would melt. land speed record is about 1300kmh. F1 cars can go up to 400kmh, on race track they go around 250-320kmh and even braking from that speed will heat brakes up to 500-600 degrees (celsius) imagine how hot brakes would get on 1200kmh (no its NOT 500 multiply with 3-4 times, its not math, its reality so this heat would probably be around 4000-5000 degrees)

*Mach 1 (speed of sound) creates shockwave which is lethal if craft is not specially designed for this. ..and some rookies think that its joke to drive car on 300-400kmh. about 1200kmh is already mach-1. Even if normal car could go that fast, then it would just fall apart. just like in CRASH with wall because air has that much resistance if craft is not designed for that kind of speed.

*water speed record is about 520kmh and its made on homebuilt boat.
F1 racing boats can go over 300kmh and has about 2000hp. most importan control is the front wing. pilot uses pedals to turn this wing up or down. It is very important because if pilot moves wing too much up then boat will roll over back. if pilot moves wing down too much then boat will go under...and on 300kmh its like impact with concrete. Those kind of boats has little wings under them which turns the boat. Those wings have to take more than 3 tons of pressure in turns.

*It is possible to pull out 4Gs with a handglider (1G = your normal weight, 4Gs = 4 times your weight). so if u weight about 70kg then on 4G u will weight 280kg)

*Monorail trains have no engines. track itself is the engine. it uses electromagnet which pushes the train on top of the tracks. train also does not touch the ground or track...it simply floats/flys over the tracks. In theory monorail trains have no speed limits. If monorail train would travel on mach-1 then it would simply destroy everything around tracks with shockwave.

*fastest train in world can travel over 10000kmh and it bursts into fire when doing so. it also rips apart tracks behind it.
there have been made only few tests. ofcourse no human can travel inside it.

*normal human can take about 10Gs before passing out.

*falling into water from like 100m height would simply tear you apart. no matter how u land into water. its like impact with wall.

*Top fuel dragster's acceleration: 0-100kmh = 0.2 - 0.5secs, it can reach up to 400-500kmh in just 5 secs.

*Fiber optic cables uses binary language and light waves to transfer data, many times faster than normal metal wires/cables.

*If you shoot into water from super-sonic weapon like 50.cal then bullet simply disintegrate into tiny lil pieces in just 10-30cm below surface. Thats because bullet moves so fast that impact with water is like impact with siever.

*Electricity was discovered between 250BC-250AD. they used vase, 2 metals and some liquid for that (basically like car's battery, but using different components)

*world loudest car stereo can make about 155db of noise and it will apply around 3 tons of pressure on the peak moment of beat to a car from inside (if doors and windows are closed). It will not brake anything because it applys that pressure only during the beat.

*new age skyscrapers uses a massive counterweight inside of top levels, which is controlled by computers, to balance the skyscraper in strong wind.

*car's tank will not explode when you shoot a bullet into it. It can only occur when you use tracer rounds from specific distance.

*you can dissolve iron/steel using only strong food (salsa or something like that) and electricity (DC works better). It can be used to escape from prison for example. It takes under month to dissolve iron bars in prison.

*one of the first computers in world weighted about 33 tons and it used binary language. this kind of computer was programmed by plugging and unplugging cables. binary language is 1 and 0 = on and off

*speed of light is 299 792 458 meters per second = 1 079 252 848 800 km/h

*fastest high speed camera can capture speed of light itself

*you can turn your DVD writer into a burning laser.

*Neon light is generated by burning gas (neon). This is where Neon gets it's name. Neon is actually a gas. Burning that gas in special conditions will give you the cool neon-effect. To light small neon tube (30cm long meant for PC, works from 12v) you need about 600 volts. input power can be 220v or 12v ..or something else, but transformer will transform this into 600v. many people think that its just a light...its not, its a burning gas that makes this cool effect.

*Kung-Fu was invented by a woman. You dont need strenght to be good in kung-fu, all you need is mind. Many punks think that strenght is everything when you fight, its not. Big muscles actually reduces the strenght of punch. Kung-Fu is all about mind power and speed.

*In Taiwan, police SWAT team is learning Kung-Fu so USA's Police, SWAT etc... is nothing compared to them.

*Racing in game (simulators - TestDrive unlimited, LFS2, RACE, GTR2) is way more harder than in real life, because in game you don't feel when car starts to slide, lose control, oversteer and/or understeer.

*It is possible to control human's with sound. For example, injecting baby crying sound into a cellphone's ringtone (it cant be heard as baby crying) can make woman's breasts crow like 2-4cm in 10 days.

*Big muscles decreases your punching power, because you have two main muscles for hand, one that pushes hand and other that pulls hand back. Muscle that pulls your hand back, is on top of your hand. big machos have big muscles on top of hand, but this muscle pulls your hand back, not straights it out, therefore it is bad to have big muscle if you want to have strong punches. it would actually pull your hand back, instead of a strong punch. for strong punch, you need speed more than anything, the faster your hand moves, the more damage it makes.


Everything here, is true. If you do not believe me then start googling or use wikipedia...
Maybe I have made some mistakes about speed records ...etc but generally its true. I really do not remember all those speed records and such so well.
I wrote this by myself atm. It means i did not search any of that, but all that can be seen in discovery channel or in google (science sites or something like that, with videos)

*Nitrous Oxide (NOS) is not flammable. lot of ppl (drooling noobs), think that Nitrous is flammable and explosive, but it's not. so what happens if you inject NO into car's engine:
it cools down the system (intake) and allows more air and fuel to enter cylinder/s causing much denser charge of fuel/air mixture.
you can compare it to the "water into burning oil". every idiot should know that if you pour water into burning oil, it will cause a huge fireball (kind a like explosion) and every idiot should also know that water does not burn.

* Avarage kitchen sponge has more germs on it than an avarage toilet seat. actually avarage kitchen sponge is more dirtier (has more germs and microbes on it) than any other common household item (cellphones, remote controls, money, light switches..etc).
