The universe is full of pointless but endlessly amusing tidbits about life, nature, and everything in between. What's the deal with cats' aloofness, why do bees die when they sting you, and do gas giants really smell as bad as they sound? Read on to find out!

Mount Everest is the tallest mountain in the world, right? Well, no, not technically. Mauna Kea in Hawaii is actually the world's tallest mountain, as the height of a mountain is the measure taken from the base to the summit. Unlike Everest, which, from top to bottom, measures 29,032 feet, Mauna Kea measures more than 33,400 feet.

The difference? Only 13,803 of those feet are above sea level.

Block out the seriousness of everyday life, at least for a few moments, with entertaining and interesting fun facts each and every day.
