Weird Facts Wednesday

See I told you I'd forget. Thanks mom.

Just for you: Sharks pee through their skin, and they smell heavily of ammonia when they're dead. Also Horses can kick with a force equal to 1ton of pressure. For instance a small colt, can bend a quarter in 1/2 quite easily with a play kick.

Is the quarter just on the ground? How does the colt bend it in half with a kick if it's lying on the ground?

good question kurt, i'm glad you asked!

in reality it was in a mans pocket at the time of the incident, but i like to think that its a dare devil competition where one flings quarters at the horse until it kicks one against a 2x4...
