6. Food can be grown 100feet (30m) below ground level.
7. William Thackeray is the mutual ancestor of David Cameron and Al Murray.
8. Humans picked up genes linked with smoking addiction when they interbred with the Neanderthals.
9. Half of the world’s men are clueless about the size of their partner’s dresses.
10. You can open a can of food simply by rubbing it on a concrete surface.
