Humans spit up roughly one to two liters every day, so over the course of a lifetime, you won't create enough saliva to fill an Olympic-sized pool all at once. The entire amount of sand grains on Earth is thought to be 7.5 x 10 to the 18th, while 560 billion Lego parts have already been produced.

10 Signs You Have A Fear Of Intimacy
10 Signs You Have A Fear Of Intimacy Have you ever been in a relatively new relationship and felt a need to exit the relationship for no apparent reason? You might have a fear of intimacy. Those who are afraid of intimacy avoid becoming emotionally or physically vulnerable to others. They often pull away once they begin to get close to someone - ending relationships before they’ve had a chance to flourish. Sometimes this fear of intimacy is conscious, and the person is aware of their fears. Other times people are subconsciously afraid of intimacy - and they may not know why they behave in ways that push others away. It can be challenging to establish a level of self-awareness that recognizes this subconscious fear of becoming close to someone. Shutting emotions down before they surface is a typical response to emotional trauma. And identifying emotions that don’t emerge, isn’t easy. It may take a series of unstable, uncommitted or unhealthy relationships before someone realizes they have a problem. If you’ve noticed a common theme in your relationships that centers around fear, check out some of the signs that suggest you may have a fear of intimacy.
