You might look up 'Curses! Broiled Again' It explores all sorts of urban legends and the psychology behind them. Besides being a darned good read, you learn stuff!

Hey Mike, tell me about your shirt. What is that character and where can I get one?
Isnt that a horseshoe on your choker? 😂😂
A good reminder that people ages ago were not ignorant. They were much more observant than we are today but they just did not have the technical means to test ideas. They understood how things worked even if they didn't understand the why.
People from "ages ago" weren't stupid. However they were ignorant of so much that we now know that it's amazing. I once had a patient say "these old remedies have been used for hundreds of years so they must have worth." when defending some ridiculous superstitious cure. I pointed out that hundreds of years ago the average life expectancy was around 30. They didn't consider this, they just got angry. Secondly, notice how many of these aren't actually proven correct by science. They just boil down to 'if your really invested in this ludicrous idea then following it may lessen your anxiety or stress. That's far from saying trixidecaphobia means Friday the 13th is statistically more dangerous or that throwing salt over your shoulder, crossing your fingers, or knocking on wood has any affect on the real world other than in your perceptions. Walking under a ladder, OTOH, I understand.
On full moon is usually more busy for police & hospitals, kids seems have more energy. If the moon affects the tides of the ocean, with all the water were made of seems it would have some effect on us.
Absolutely. I've noticed that sometimes when I'm questioning my emotional response to something, I check the moon, and more often than not, it's a full or nearly full moon.
Good point!!
My dad teaches preschoolers, and he's observed this.
The phases of the moon do not change the gravitational pull on the tide. The Moon is always the same size, regardless of how much light is shining on it. Therefore, it would have the same effect on the earth whether a full moon or just a sliver.
@@phife1878 but they do. When the moon is closer it effects humans and the tide
I still believe that the leaves on the trees "flipping over" is a sign it's about to rain.
Silver Maple, specifically!
It is true, the trees around here do it all the time.
The top side of a lot of leaves on trees are often waxy or shiny to keep some of the moisture in the rain is coming. The leaves will flip over so they can gather. Is more moisture.
I trust it more than I do the weather channel
@@_am.ber_
Well the weather channel is TOTALLY WORTHLESS.
Isn’t salt over shoulder only if you spill some?
That is what I've always heard. Some YT chefs always throw it over when they use salt, which just makes me cringe and want to immediately grab a broom!
i was literally looking for this comment
Salt was precious-- You tossed a bit over your left shoulder into the demon's eyes, to keep him from getting you.
That’s was I was always told, keeps the devil away.
That’s what I always thought too
I've seen the end of a rainbow once. The end of the rainbow was by the edge of a wooded area. It a really had the ground and the trees lit up a golden yellow color. No wonder they think that leprechauns hide their gold at the end of a rainbow. It really was a site to behold.
Me too, I was driving on the highway here and I drove straight into the end of the rainbow and was blinded by a bright light, I loved it.
A rainbow is an optical illusion, impossible to see the ends as they never reach the ground .
Yes I rode my horse through the arch it looked it was from one field to another. The light was magical. To add to that it was Xmas day. Wonderful moment.
@@sleepyheadsleeps "A rainbow is an optical illusion, impossible to see the ends as they never reach the ground ."
Not true. Supported by the photo in this video and by my own personal experience. I had the pleasure of actually walking through the end of rainbow once.
you must be very tall then.
I also don't really like daylight saving time. I think it's weird that we mess with time.
Wait until you learn that time zones are something the railroad companies created to make scheduling trains easier
That's actually the origin of it? Time zones kinda make sense to me, but of course it's the railroad @@nooneofconsequence3847
It’s because people have to feel in control of everything in life, including time itself.
Joints feeling the weather definitely real. I'm not an old person, but I broke my foot in 5th grade. I can still feel when there is moisture in the air or when it's really cold, usually before any weather comes in. The older I've gotten, the less it happens, but it still does. Also, I'm student teaching right now and it seems like the kids are crazier than normal where there is a full moon.
No, kids are DEFINTELY crazier around a full moon. I don't need a scientific reason--I live it monthly. I don't know how, but it affects them. And the kids aren't paying attention to moon cycles, either.
Worked in a hospital. Can tell you we had many full moon nights! Not kidding. This was nice!🙂✌️
The behaviors on the Eve of the eclipse has been interesting. 😊
Mike, apparently Friday the 13 goes back to The Knights Templar,, who were arrested on Friday 13, 1307. My youngest son was born on Fri. 13, and he is a great guy, I don't know if he's ever looked for a four leaf clover, but he was struck by lightening (he survived).
Like I said 13 of the fall on one day
You are correct. What's his face is wrong, which causes me to doubt the accuracy of the rest of his "facts". Hell done, Katnero.
There is a belief that Jesus Christ was crucified on a Friday 13th.
@@jt2473they aren't his. List25 has writers and researchers that find this stuff. Mike is merely the on-screen personality. He and a former List25 left (or they were let go, still not sure on that) and started their own channel a while back. I think it was Okay, Thank You. In any event, List25 suffered without Mike and his own channel didn't do well, so he connected with the again a year or so back.
My husband and I went out on our first date on Friday the 13th. We’ve been married 32 years.
Barometric pressure changes are no joke. I’m not old but I feel it sometimes
100%
Yes! The weather was scheduled to rain all day today, and before it started, both of my hands started cramping with aches. I applied Aspercream to my hands and it helped. The atmospheric pressure effects people even if they don't have arthritis.
It is definitely A Thing. I have some complex medical stuff going on, and have some arthritis-like symptoms, and got "lucky" enough to get the weather-sense.
Was in a major wreck thirty odd years ago. Screws plate. Ow. I can 100% tell you if it is going to snow, or could before it started to not hurt ALL the time!
@@ekramer2478 oh gosh. That sucks
Why is the title "25 Superstititions that Science Has Proven True" when about half were explanations about the origin of the superstitions, but with no proof of them being actually rooted in observation? Very interesting video, as always.
Was about to ask the same thing. WTH.
There was one time I found three 4-leaf clovers in one day in three different locations. And just a few months ago I found my very first 5-leaf clover in my back yard. Overall I have always been good at finding 4-leaf clovers, usually I find an average of one or two a year.🍀
Yeah pesticide use is def high in your area.
i have had days of finding 20 plus in a few hours if i look for them. i rarely bother anymore as it became too easy. it got to where i could feel there were X amount of them in a patch, let someone else look, amd sure enough, that was the amount in that patch. had a cousin almost as good at finding them as i was. grandmother had alot of clovers growing in her yard and one day he and I decided to look for as many as we could find, we wound up with over 100 4 leaf clovers that day (quart sized sandwich bag full). i have also found 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9 leaf clovers over the years.
I love learning when superstitions and wives tales are true like this. Keep up the great work Mike and team List 25.
Thanks! Will do!
💯👍
Your just telling me that ppl belive these...yes thats why they are just ol wives tales
OLD wives' tales (like me)
@@myriamguns2162 Why not old husbands' tales?
Dreaming of my teeth falling out used to happen to me a LOT in my 30's, when I was pursuing my career. After I quit working and took on a much more relaxed lifestyle, those dreams stopped. It's horrifying to dream about spitting out your teeth into your hand, and will wake you up in a cold sweat, unable to go back to sleep. So yes, I associate dreaming of losing teeth with extreme stress in reality. Also, on the rare occasion I now have that dream, it is during stress.
I have never had that dream, and I had never heard of it before this.
@@freethebirds3578 dreams are personal, and most certainly mysterious. I have often dreamed of being lost in a school, usually a campus, where I can't find the building I'm looking for, and it's urgent, because I'm late for the class. I haven't been in school in over 35 years.
My best friend suffered from these dreams when he was in a custody battle. Stress and those dreams are probably correlated.
During my early teens, I often dreamed about loose/falling out teeth. Never(so far) as an adult. (Im 75!!)
Throwing the salt was supposed to be throwing it in the devil's eye
Yeah screw that dude 😉
I had a girl throw gum in my hair when I was in high-school. She was mad when I didn't have to cut my hair to get it out. She said she did it because my hair was prettier than hers and she was jealous.
My mom was a school teacher. She once used peanut butter to get gum out of a girl’s hair. It was against the girl’s religion to cut her hair, and a boy knew that and stuck it in her hair to be mean.
@@smscraig children can be so mean.
If you have ever worked in retail or emergency rooms you will know the full moon does effect behavior
Or just work in a hospital; I am a RN and at one time in my career I worked in the ICU. We hated full moons not only because our patients would act up but we would usually be very busy & fill up with admits from the ER.
I worked in a mental health clinic. Full moons were always busy and weird.
My husband was schizophrenic but in the early days I could tell it was full moon because he got worse. Absolutely for real.
Cats have also have the ability to predict storms. Sailors used to keep cats on ships because cats get the zoomies when a storm is coming.
That Estrin Estrogen bit KILLED ME!🤣
My birthday is on the 13th, when it comes on a Friday I usually have good luck all that year
12 apostles, 1 Jesus = 13
If you believe you're lucky, you are. Your beliefs create your reality. Law of Attraction 101.
I still knock on wood; if there's no wood around I use my head. Works every time 😉
*the barometric pressure one is furreelz. I have no cartilage in either of my knees and several of my vertebrae...I can tell 48 hours precisely before rain comes.
Confirmation bias
@@brie1987No it's punishment. When I was kid. And an old person would say, I feel rain coming in my bones. I would always tell them your crazy. And they would always reply; One day you find out for yourself. To this day I'm still not sure whether they were cursing me or not. I'm leaning towards the curse part the older I get, though. 😅
I also knock on my head when no wood is available!!!😍😉🪵
@@thebigdog2295 Guess I'm 'glad' I'm not the only one. Best of luck mate 🤙
@@brie1987 (I was kinda joking about the wood one 😉)
And although completely off topic, the only association I can make with that last one is that it was often a running gag in many old Windex commercials, where some naughty crows would be laughing at someone’s misfortune as they walk into the door or something, falling victim to these “jokes”. 😂
Oh wow. I haven’t thought of that commercial in years. I was a kid. Guess I’m old enough to remember it 🥲
@@BananaGrace Yeah, same. And by the way, I meant to put glass door. I think I was such a little kid when these commercials were on at the time they were among the most popular things randomly on TV.
I've never understood the 'lucky rabbit's foot'. At school, I did a presentation on superstitions and managed to get a rabbit's foot for a visual prop. A friend asked if he could have it afterwards, I warned him the rabbit didn't have much luck, and he had 4 of them! He was really chuffed when I gave it to him, turned, took 3 steps, tripped over a bright green, knee high box and broke wrist in 2 places! 🤣🤣🤣
I always had those 😂
Looking back, that was kinda creepy 😅
stop the madness do away with daylight saving time
Absolutely NOT. 😡 DST when it starts and stops is a much needed reminder to do important things nobody remembers to do otherwise. MOST people check their smoke and CO detectors, change batteries in detectors and emergency flashlights etc, check expiration dates and replenish emergency kits, change furnace filters, and more. The clocks in vehicles lose time, and generally require being changed by 1 hour and 1-5 minutes at each changeover. Remove these reminders and such things will be neglected even more. If you aren't using DST like this, you're the problem. Remember, the shorter days during standard time won't feel any longer if DST stays year-round, and there are actually psychological benefits to the already longer days being lined up better during the DST switch.
How is the day longer? You make it sound like people aren't checking expiration dates before dst.
It had its purpose before electricity was readily available. But how long ago was that??
If a month starts on a Sunday, there will be a Friday the 13th
I figured that out when I was seven years old.
One of my great grandmas believed that if you cut your hair on a full moon, your hair would grow back faster. I'm not sure if that's superstition or not, but still a fun thing to think about.
Witches practice cutting hair at full moon for faster growth. Cut hair at New Moon to preserve a hairstyle or permanent.
I love that, I’m gonna pick it up
When I was a child I would avoid cracks because I was afraid I would break my mother's back. Lol😂
What does this mean? 😂
@@Lauraabreu1528 the next sentence to it is "step on a line, break your mother's spine".
Although Devo said it best, "Step on the brake, break your mommas back!"
@@Lauraabreu1528that you will kill her 😭. I was terrified of this as a little kid.
When my son was young, we would get in the car and go look for the end of the rainbow. The pot of gold was the many hours we spent in quality time!
Friday the 13 was very unlucky for the knights templer. That is the day the Catholic church attacked the knights temple and destroyed them. From what I understand, that's when the fear of Friday the 13th started.
So, most of them are just total BS, and the title is just clickbait. Got it.
Yeah I'm annoyed at it... The true ones were interesting but the rest were just like "yeah, sometimes dogs do howl" 🙄
Yes, let us say it was just of the weaker videos of him.
Hardly any off these involve science at all, they are just origin stories
I can attest to the fact that sugar cures hiccups. My husband is very smug about this - he's the one who taught me to do it. Thanks! ❤
I found 2 four-leaf clovers within the same day when I was around 5 or 6, vacationing with family in Montana. Never came across others since then, but I'll never forget that day. 🍀🍀
I saw a video sometime this past week where some dude found a clover with 53 leaves! NJ! I think it was either a List 25 or a 50 Amazing Facts video.
4 leaf clovers are actually very common. If you actually go looking through a patch of clovers, you'll find a bunch of them
I don't like time savings either
I say that we should change 1 final time by 30 minutes, that way everyone should be satisfied.
As far as I know, nobody does. It's stupid, pointless, and harmful. I don't know if I care either way. Just pick a time and live with it!
@@freethebirds3578 Agreed
@@freethebirds3578it really is useless now. There are two states in the US that don't change the time (Arizona and Hawaii) and several territories. If they don't have to, neither do we.
i'm not superstitious, but i'm a little stitious.
I'm more understitious, I usually have better things happen on a Friday 13.
24: I had surgery on my right knee 30 years ago and have screws through it.
This happens a day before a big storm...about 10% of the time. It's an unmistakable ache.
Rarely do I talk about it.
Was the surgery good, or bad?
I've been able to tell when it's going to snow when I get a certain pain in my back since I was a teenager. People don't believe me despite me always being right.😅
68 years for hiccups and also the indigenous peoples also did the knock on woods and the druids in front for luck and mischief for in back it’s lucky if a wedding ring is made from a horse shoe
I once saw the end of a rainbow, and it just so happened to be in Golden, Colorado.
Number 1 made me chuckle and took me back to the funniest memory of my eldest daughter. On my wedding day, my husband and I were out on the patio at the hotel/zoo we got married at having a chat with some friends and getting fresh air, and my eldest daughter (she was 6 years old at the time, she’s 11 now) came out to ask us a question and when she went to run back indoors, she ran straight into a glass door. It was absolutely hilarious cause she full pelt ran at it. The door was so clean she didn’t realise. She left a line of dribble or snot behind in the door. So so funny. Thanks for reminding me of one of the highlight moments of our wedding reception 😂😂😂
So you think it's funny that your daughter had this misfortune and could have been severely injured.
I like your videos! They actually match with the titles you give them. SO MANY do not. Keep up the good work and KUDOS to you!
Thank you very much!
Thanks for the video. I knew these ,but it was fun listening to you, Mike. 😊❤😊
When I was a kid, I was visiting a friend one day. The house where he lived had a sliding glass door that looked out onto an enclosed front porch. His family had a rather large white angora cat. Well, my friend and I were sitting in the living room when his older sister came into the house. Suddenly, we heard the scampering of claws on linoleum as the cat came scampering out of the kitchen in a white blur, racing like there was no tomorrow through the dining room, through the living room...and right into the sliding glass door with a resounding WHAM! Apparently, the cat had heard the sliding door open but not close again. Fun times!
I saw the end of a rainbow over an outhouse. I didn't want to know if there was gold there.
About the wheat and barley test it also tell the gender of the baby too depending on the wheat or barley,my aunt died in the afternoon because a dog howled across from the mental health center where I was and a few days later I learned of her death she died that day,😢 I cringe when I hear a dog howl in the afternoon now. This was in the early 2000’s when she died she was my mom’s baby sister.
The same thing happened when my brother passed away. He took care of our neighbors dog when they went on vacation. He was in the hospital . When the dog howled my mom knew he passed away. The hospital called to tell her of the bad news.
@@Samurai17thc oh wow and scary
How's this for luck..? On a scavenger hunt in Jr. Highschool, I not only found a 4 leaf clover... No one else did... But before I turned the list in... I lost it. So I went back to the same clover patch... AND FOUND A SECOND ONE!.. and then lost that one!
4:14 “do they arrive more than once?” 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Thousands of not tens of thousands infact
I too hate daylight savings time. Just leave the clock ALONE. Ugh
Great video, Mike! 😁
My youngest son has been able to predict the weather, meaning if there is rain within 15 mile radius, since he was an infant. It's called CHRONIC PAIN ❕️‼️❕️
That pain has no equal as far as I know and it occurs before storms and other natural events to me .The phenomena can become so intense I cough up blood and other problems . I have this at 68 and it's getting worse by the year ! What a damned curse !!!!!😢😢😢
I love daylights saving time 😂 I might be the only one tho
Years ago, I had a teacher when I had hiccups to hold my breath and swallow three times.
To my surprise it worked, still does.
The five leaf clover glasses! Haha
I had a wart on my thumb when I was a kid that wouldn't go away. My mother told me to go bury one of her dish towels in the yard, and It actually worked. My wart was completely gone in 2 days.
That is the same thing that I was told! Except I had to hide the dish rag under a rock and never look at it again. 😮 To this day I’ve never looked under that rock. And yes, the wart disappeared!
The night of a moon is when people have issues, weird things happen in restaurants or the hospital is packed. Mostly intuition. 13 floor in elevator is considered unlucky. 3 strikes you’re out,unlucky.
Sharen
My dog will always wake me up right before an earthquake strikes if it happens in the middle of the night.
7:50 The Historic Mayflower Hotel in Akron, Ohio, actually has a clearly labeled 13th floor.
It was refreshing to see a historical landmark in the Art Deco style that didn't pander to that superstition.
Ooh la la for the Art Deco aspect as well!
When I think of rainbows, I think of the poem, "The Rainbow Bridge. " So when I see a rainbow, I tell all the furbabies I miss that they're loved and missed😢.
I've felt storms in the bones of my legs and knees, even when I was a child. It would always hurt from the inside, either the night before a storm or shortly beforehand.
Back when I was under 5 years old, my mom warned me that if I kept making faces it would stay stuck. Well, I kept making faces anyway. I still have a face, so that superstition is proven.
That's about the exact same level of "scientific proof" provided for nearly all of the entries to this list.
I feel bad for laughing at my grandmother for saying it was going to rain. I can now do the same thing.
I loved this video
I HATE daylight savings too!😂😂😂
You the salt over your left shoulder 😂♥️
Placebo mentality is a powerful way of thinking for things like knocking on wood or for thinking positive or for that wanting to manifest what they're thinking of.
I’ve tried the sugar method for hiccups didn’t work for me. What works for me every time: take a very deep breath and hold it as long as possible then exhale slowly as much as possible and hold it as long as possibly. Works for me. If I get a hiccup in between I just start again with the breathing
Hiccoughs (hiccups): I tried sugar once but inhaled some during a hic. Standard medical try was to have the sufferer breath in and out in a paper bag to increase the carbon dioxide. Knock on wood: If you believe it helps, it probably will (placebo effect). Fish leaping: In the book Kon Tiki about a raft expedition across the Pacific, it mentions a flying fish nearly landing in a hot skillet in someone's hand! Walking into glass:: All the time--usually WITH a glass in my hand.
#22 I have another cure for hiccups, sucking on a pretzel rod. Not sure how it works, but I discovered it with a friend who got the hiccups frequently, I gave him a pretzel rod, hiccups gone.
#12 it was told to me that an itchy left palm was receiving money, the right hand was to pay out money.
How right-handed of you! 😁😁😁
It's fascinating that things are the way that they are. Keep it up. I'm subscribing. Pass the love.
Thanks for the sub!
Peanut butter and gum remind me of The Simpsons 😁
I agree with you about DST, when the sun is highest in the sky it's mid day, which means 12:00, i even leave all my clocks at GMT without the dst offset selected.
Cure for hiccups ? just hold your breath, hold it long enough and they will be gone :D
Actually, i do hold my breath, but do it so it's like you're trying to constantly breathe in (mouth open), works most of the time.
Once my former husband and I were having a drive in light rain, and we saw a rainbow, squee!
However, the rainbow was literally arching from the sky onto our car! He was driving our 2-seater, so I turned to see where the Rainbow was appearing to land...
It ended in the trunk of our car!
That was a one in a billion phenomena, the rain being just light enough, and the Sun at the perfect angle to see this Rainbow rising from a mile away [likely more, but how to measure such a thing?] and then coming right at us and landing in the trunk!
I have a four 🍀 leaved clover my son found in our front yard when he was 4, he's 28, I laminated it and I keep it with me at all times.
At the end of the rainbow its golden loght from the sun and the colors its very very beautiful
Hi Mike! I once had a severe case of hiccups that made it almost impossible to talk, eat, sleep or sleep. After several days, and trying every home remedy imaginable, I called my doctor. He said he would call in a prescription for me, and when I picked it up I saw it was for Thorazine, a powerful anti psychotic! I asked the pharmacist if there was a mistake, and he said no, that it is sometimes used for that. Anyway, I went home, took one and in half an hour the hiccups were gone. For some reason, the prescription was for 60 tablets, that left me with 59 tabs which I kept just in case the hiccups ever got out of hand again, or I encountered a schizophrenic in need of meds.😅
In regards to number 15 - horseshoes...... You are correct about the superstition coming from the Celts however, in regards to hanging them in the house, when they would build their house, they would nail a horseshoe on every side of the house then finish the inside walls along with hanging a horseshoe above each door. The reason behind this was not because it was a horseshoe but instead it was a piece of iron which had a hole already in it for shoeing a horse. The Celts believed that the Faye could not enter their homes because the touch of iron could burn or if struck could kill a Faye. As it was believed that since the Faye were from another realm where no iron existed, that iron weapons or anything made from iron could stop the Faye.
The only reason I know this is because I had to write a paper regarding the superstitions/myths of what is now considered Europe during my advanced Comp and Literature during my 3rd year of college back in the 1970's.
So yeah, you could say my professor was pretty hip (as in a hippie - no joke!). Matter of fact when you mentioned something that astounded him or you wrote a paper he really enjoyed reading, he would say "Far out man!" And would normally give us the peace sign as we were leaving the class. He was a really cool and righteous dude! He actually made learning fun! Also when you wanted to talk to him during his office hours, you would have to go outside and walk to the secluded area he hung out at, there he would usually be smoking a joint and offering to share it with any of his students that came to see him. I just remember that during those office visits, the discussions were both wild and extremely interesting!! I certainly wish there were far more professors like him! He really cared about all of his students and would ensure that no one struggled in any of his classes! Because he would help the individuals who were having issues comprehending or if there were several students he would stop the lesson and break the class up into groups ensuring that every student who was having problems were assigned to groups where there would be several students who could help explain it in a manner that they (struggling students) may grasp easier. The only way you could fail his class is if you did not put the effort into his class! I asked him about why he does that at the end of my 4th year and he told me that he felt that if a student was trying and was failing his class that it was not the student who was failing but actually it was him as the professor that was failing because he somehow didn't connect with that student and provide the information in a manner that connected with the student.
So, Professor Bill, you wild, crazy and caring man..... I truly hope the rest of your life after I left college was wonderful and that you were maintained that "Free love along with your willingness to go above and beyond to connect with people, especially all of the students who were lucky enough to have had you as an advisor and or a professor! The way you cared for everyone of your students education was truly magical! Perhaps Professor Bill you really may have been part of the Faye yourself!! R.I.P.

Yeah, my brother, Phillip, had a lucky seven leaf clover. He went missing New Year's Eve of 1999, but I found his 7 leaf clover in the jacket of his Breakfast Club soundtrack vinyl. I eventually gave it to my son, who is also named after his lucky, missing uncle. - Yancey Fry
What does it mean when your palms itch?
Company's coming.
Correct. What does it mean when you itch all over?
They've arrived!

I always enjoy your work.
Cool video bro
Evening Mike 👋
Evening all 👋
I had beginner's luck once, my BFF invited me to bingo with her early last year on Wednesdays and it became a regular thing. On the first 4 or so weeks, I won £85 😁
I've found over 50 four leaf and 4 five leaf clovers over the past 5 years, I have just under 30 of them in a flower press kit in my bedroom and I carry the first one I ever found in my phone case with me at all times and I don't feel my life has changed with luck since finding any of them.
I believe the 4 leaf clover part is off a smidgen. I find 4 or 5 or 6 leaf clovers in my driveway. A specific type is more like than others to grow extra leaves. Also toxic areas are more likely to create mutated clovers that tend to have extra leaves
No.6 I've always known as "shepards delight/warning" basically meaning that red sky at night means it won't rain but a red sky in the morning means it'll rain later
I learned early on to stop a baby's hiccups by touching sugar to the tip of their tongue, but never considered using sugar for this purpose as an adult.
Feeling approaching rain/snow in old or broken bones would have far more research done about it if it weren't for the fact that medicine revolves around policies written by big insurance companies. Arthritis can be a debilitating condition, but most medical doctors are happy to dismiss a patient's suffering, since they will be paid regardless whether the patient improves. Insurance wins. Doctor wins. Patient loses all around. This is the state of healthcare here today.
Ice also removes gum from hair!
I've been using sugar to get rid of hiccups. All my life! It works!
I absolutely hate time change. Also, as I have worked as an EMT and an ER nurse for most of my medical career, I don't care what the scientific studies say, there definitely are more crazies, crimes committed, and babies born during a full moon. Whoever came up with calling crazy people lunatics after the Latin word luna for moon, was one smart cookie.
Laughed my ass off when you realized a baby only arrives "once." I love this channel. 👍
Eucalyptus oil works on gum too.
I have proved Friday The 13th wrong multiple times-I have had GOOD luck on a few Friday The 13ths!
My mom used butter to get gum out of our hair ! We were “energetic “ kids with lots of things to do ,all four of us ! 😁Love you
Mom 💗🥰
There's nothing worse than having hiccups for a week straight.
That breaking a mirror was bad luck
Called my granny asking how to get rid of a sty. She told me to bury a potato at the fork of a road at midnight & say "Sty sty go away". I told her I seriously doubted that would work 😅
Why have all these things happened to me?! Especially the damn bird flying INTO MY HOUSE?! Not into the window but actually into my house when I opened the door!!!
Went out on the deck once to look at a rainbow and saw that it ended in our backyard. No gold (alas!), just the chickens walking around.
Nice touch with the horseshoe necklace, Mike! 😉
What are us diabetics with hiccups supposed to do ? eat saccharin !!!! 😮😅😂🤣
