In Germany, trees are numbered.
This is done in order to keep a list of the trees in the forest. The list contains all the information about the tree: age, condition, species. This is necessary to take proper care of the trees and to prevent them from falling down.

January 15, 2009 "Miracle on the Hudson" - the famous landing of the A320 in New York City
Ninety seconds after takeoff, the plane collided with a flock of geese, resulting in both engines failing. The pilots realized that they would not make it to the airport, so they decided to divert the plane to the Hudson River. Miraculously not hitting the George Washington Bridge, the commander of the A320 leveled the plane over the river and, with a strong impact, dived. Only 208 seconds elapsed between the crash and the downdraft. Another 24 minutes later, all passengers and crew were rescued.

Hugging is good for your health
During a hug our body increases the level of the hormone oxytocin. Accordingly, we feel calmer, more peaceful, feel safe. Oxytocin in turn stimulates the production of endorphins - "hormones of happiness" and reduces the production of cortisol - "stress hormone".

In fact, Elvis is not a brunette; nature gave him light blond hair.
He dyed his hair brunette because his blue eyes combined with the resin hair color looked more spectacular on the color screens.

In the 1930s, American radio began to feature multi-episode programs with unpretentious, tear-jerking plots.
They were sponsored by manufacturers of soap and other detergents, since the main audience of these programs were housewives. Therefore, the expression "soap opera" was reserved for radio and later television series.

The sweetest animal, the Galago.
The complex and folded structure of its ears makes the Galago possess the finest hearing. By the sound, they track the movement of an insect even in complete darkness, through the foliage.

The fruits of the pistachio tree are harvested at night.
The fact is that during the harvesting of the nuts, the leaves release essential oils that can even make you dizzy, so high is the concentration of these vapors. This is why the pistachio is harvested only at night.
