My head is filled with random facts of God knows what. People always seemed amazed by the pointless knowledge so I started putting them down on my facebook on Fridays. Then I decided why not have somewhere to post them for others to share and see on days besides Fridays.

FUN FACT FRIDAYS March 11th 2011
YAYYYYY JELLYFISH. So each tentacle on a Box Jellyfish has 500,000 cnidocytes which are microscopic harpoon shaped coiled hollow hairs. When triggered they spring out as fast as 700 nanoseconds, thus reaching an acceleration of up to 5,410,000 G's. That is the fastest moving thing on earth not on a cellular, molecular, or particle level.
