Common Misconceptions

A friend shared this link on Facebook, it's a long Wikipedia entry on common misconceptions and I think it's pretty cool. It is Wikipedia so who knows if they're all really true, but I thought it was fun reading anyways.

Among the debunked facts:

-You can see the Great Wall from space

-Colombus had trouble getting funding for his voyage because people thought the Earth was flat

-Men think about sex every seven seconds

-Ostriches bury their head in the ground
