Even on the sunniest and most joyful days, the dark side of reality is always nearby, and it never misses an opportunity to remind itself. Watch yourself, be careful! 
Bacteria and viruses can be frozen for millions of years and still remain viable and infectious. And if they have also never met humanity before, the results of the meeting will be the most catastrophic. That's why scientists are anxiously awaiting the opportunity to study what pathogens lurk in the permafrost, which is now gradually melting day by day. 
One of the reasons ravens and ravens are associated with death is that they often followed armies as they went into battle. Being extremely intelligent scavenger birds, they realized that a large group of armed men marching in the same direction meant that the birds would soon have a feast of corpses. 
The smell of a freshly cut lawn is actually a chemical distress signal emitted from the grass as it is cut. 
Female mummies in ancient Egypt were always more decomposed than male ones. The reason is that men's bodies are embalmed much earlier than women's. Women's bodies were kept in the house until they began to decompose, to avoid necrophilia from the embalmers. 
The bottom of Lake Superior is so cold that the bodies of the dead sailors do not decompose. Instead, they receive a coating of adipose tissue—liquid body fat that hardens, enveloping them in a sort of cocoon. 
The blobfish in its natural habitat looks like a regular fish, but lives so deep underwater that it does not use a normal swim bladder to maintain balance in the water column. Its role is played by spongy skin, slightly less dense than water, which becomes damaged and bloated when fishermen lift it too quickly. So it's actually not the ugliest fish. Simply rising to the surface for her is the same as for a person going into outer space without a spacesuit. The difference between the pressure at sea level and at a depth of more than a kilometer, where it lives, is about 60 atmospheres, and on the surface it is simply slowly being torn apart. 
Rosemary Kennedy was John Kennedy's sister. At birth she suffered from oxygen deprivation, which slowed her mental development. Fearing that her behavior would jeopardize his political career, her father, Joseph, decided to lobotomize his daughter. Her mother, Rose, was against it and forbade him to do this. However, Joseph arranged the operation behind her back while she was traveling.
After the operation, Rosemary's already low IQ dropped even further, to the point where she could no longer walk or communicate. Her family placed her in an orphanage and essentially abandoned her. They never visited her and never acknowledged her existence publicly again. Rosemary died at the age of 86. Her mother never forgave her husband for what he did. 
If you receive a blood transfusion and receive the wrong type of blood, one of the symptoms will be a “feeling of impending doom.” 
Crocodiles can gallop like horses. Luckily, alligators can't. 
If the sun were to explode right now, you would be blissfully unaware of it for eight minutes as the energy moved towards you at the speed of light. 
It wasn't until 1987 that the American Academy of Pediatrics declared it unethical to operate on newborns without anesthesia. Until recently, the medical community considered it dangerous to give babies anesthesia because they believed they did not feel pain. 
Fibrodysplasia ossificans progressive is a genetic disease in which muscle tissue is replaced by bone. Bone growths form under the skin, and sufferers gradually find themselves imprisoned in bones just beneath their own skin. They usually have to choose between sitting or standing for the rest of their lives. By the end of their lives, they can only eat through a straw and are barely able to move. 
Observations of cockroaches have shown that they can eat human flesh, both living and dead, and eat nails, eyelashes, feet and hands. The American cockroach and German cockroach are more likely to bite people than other species. 
Mount Everest is covered in frozen corpses because cleaning them up is very unsafe and time consuming. They are easily visible from climbing routes, and some are used as trail markers. 
Colombian serial killer Pedro Alonso Lopez, known as the Monster of the Andes, raped and murdered more than 300 girls from Ecuador, Peru and Colombia. However, after he was caught and jailed for 18 years, he was committed to a mental hospital. There he was examined, declared sane and released, despite his frank statement that he intended to kill again. He was released in 1998, and no one knows where he is or what he is doing. He would currently be 71 years old. 
Suppressing a sneeze can cause damage to organs in the head, such as ruptured blood vessels in the eye, ruptured eardrums, and even a ruptured brain aneurysm. That is, there is a small chance that a suppressed sneeze could kill you. 
Over time, there may be more pages on Facebook belonging to dead people than pages of living people.

The Malaysian Boeing, operating flight 370 from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing, disappeared on March 8, 2014, and to this day no one knows about its fate. 
In 2015, a young woman started having headaches. Doctors discovered she had a brain tumor. When doctors removed and examined it, they were shocked: it was a skin-like lump that contained bones, teeth and hair. The formation was called a “teratoma” or “monstrous tumor”: it was formed by tissue cells that accidentally entered the brain during embryonic development and continued to develop there during pregnancy, growing hair and teeth. Strictly speaking, it was a strange extra organ that the body did not need and accidentally grew in it. 
There is a parasite that enters the fish's mouth, eats its tongue and replaces it with itself, becoming the fish's new tongue. 
Often after the death of the deceased, belching occurs because a lot of gases accumulate in the body. For the same reason, sometimes corpses can sit down on their own. 
The astronauts aboard the space shuttle Challenger likely did not die until they fell into the water several miles below the site of the original explosion.
