Weird But True
Who would think you can divine anything from cracking an egg into a glass of water and by studying the shapes the egg white makes in the liquid? Well, evidently some claim they can. This type of fortune-telling is called, Oomancy.
 

 

 

 

Did You Know ~
In 1885, John Lee, was sentenced to death for murdering his employer, Emma Whitehead Keyse of Babbacombe, Devon. Three times prison authorities tried to hang Lee, but each time the 19-year-old escaped death. Although it was tested before each hanging attempt, the trapdoor of the scaffold failed to open. Lee’s death sentence was commuted. He was released after serving 22 years in prison.
 

 

 

Weird But True Bonus
The Pygmy tribe of Central Africa consider it to be a symbol of great beauty for young women to have their teeth shaped into triangles. This procedure is done, using a machete.
