Strange Statistics
I love looking up weird facts and statistics. So here are some that I found.
-  2 people every year die from having a vending machine fall on them. (This one just blows my mind! Is that bag of chips really worth risking your life?!)
- There are more $100 dollar bills in Russia than in the United States. (Ugh. Let’s not even go there.)
- The average life expectancy of an enemy solider in a Chuck Norris film is 4 seconds! (Ha! I love this one. Go Chuck Norris. It is all SO realistic. Blah.)
- A piece of paper can not be folded more than nine times. (OK, I am totally going to try this one!)
- 40,000 Americans are injured by toilets each year. (That is just plain weird! I don’t even want to think about how that is possible. Do we really have that many stupid people in America? Apparently so.)
- Last, but not least: the youngest parents were ages 8 and 9. They lived in China in 1910. (This is just plain weird. Too young, too young.)

Parents at 8 and 9 years old? Holy crap! I’m 28 and don’t feel ready for my first one!
