Spot the truth...
 
fun little game for you.

Of the six things listed below only one is true. The others are only common misconceptions everyone thinks are true, but aren't.

1. Chameleons change colour to match their surroundings.
2. A duck's quack doesn't echo.
3. As a child Einstein failed Math in school.
4. Bats always turn left when exiting a cave.
5. No piece of paper can be folded more than seven times.
6. Sugar makes children hyperactive.

The answer is here, make our guess before looking and be honest whether you got it right or not:-D

Answer: Number 4. Bats only ever turn left when exiting a cave. No one knows why.

5 is my guess

I didn't get it right but it was a good guess

I actually got it right!

I always thought 5 was true until recently, when I read something about folding
a piece of paper until it was thick enough to reach between the earth and the
sun. I also knew about the chameleon and sugar in children, but guessed between
the others

I'm wrong :'( Dafuq! I'm a mathsy person, I should know these things! *folds paper*

Strange but true is it not.:laugh:

If you doubt 5, which many websites really state is true, then check out this:

folded 12 times.

it's all to do with thickness and length.

I guessed 3 for some reason!

^^ So did I! I thought I'd be all ironic.

The answer is pretty much the only one I ruled out XD

The following content has been hidden - Reason : Answer given away!
I thought I was being all clever like 'what if there's prominent danger to the left, I'm sure they'd go right! Although I didn't know anything about 2 so that was the second rule out.
I'm so lame at these!

i thought it was one.

damn.

what about randall (i think that's his name) from monster's inc? and all the other references to chameleons changing colour to match their background?

although, thinking about it, i think i remember my uncle telling me something about it not being that they change colour, but something else. idk.

was pretty sure it wasn't five because i remember seeing the mythbusters on it.

but i didn't even know the correct answer was something people thought/was an actual fact. - shrugs -
