    In England it is illegal to go into a church wearing a fake mustache to make people laugh.
    Also in England it is illegal to hang your bed outside your window.
    I said this one in another forum a few days back but, quicksand can't 'swallow' you up like you see in films, you actually float on it.
    Also pretty sure a shrimps heart is located in its head.
    A lighter was invented before a match was.

    Other way around. Cold water is denser than hot water.

    It takes roughly 6 months for a finger nail (the entire nail) to grow. From base to tip.

    This kind of depends.. From what I understand. I'm no scientist, and I'm kinda drunk, but I try to explain how I understand it anyway.
    So let's say we have 2kg of water, then we divide it in two containers, and we cool down 1kg and heat up 1kg.. What happens is, the heated water ends up weighing a tiny bit more than the cold water (because of whatever Einstein energy bs).
    So yeah, in this case you could say hot water is heavier.

    But the hot water also expands, while the cold water gets more dense.

    So next, let's say we have some pre heated and cooled down water, and we put them in their own 1 litre containers, we notice we can fit 'more' cold water in the container because it's more dense. So in this case the cold water weighs a tiny bit more than the hot water because you can basically fit more in that 1 litre container.

    So yeah.. However you wanna put it I guess.
    and you probably shouldn't quote me on this when doing your homework or anything.
