The Amazing Human Body

I was sent this e-mail recently.  I've seen it before but thought that I would share it with my blogging friends.

The Human Body
   
 
It takes your food seven seconds to get from your mouth to your stomach. 
 One human hair can support 3 kg (6.6 lb).

 The average man's penis is three times the length of his thumb.

 Human thighbones are stronger than concrete.

 A woman's heart beats faster than a man's.

 There are about one trillion bacteria on each of your feet.
  
 Women blink twice as often as men.

 The average person's skin weighs twice as much as the brain.
  
 Your body uses 300 muscles to balance itself when you are standing still.

 If saliva cannot dissolve something, you cannot taste it.

 Women reading this will be finished now.
 Men are still busy checking their thumbs.

By the way. In case someone hasn't mentioned this before, Heathrow sucks. It's a half hour bus ride between some terminals.
