Fun Fact

The coldest temperature ever recorded was -144 degrees Fahrenheit.

You might think you're accustomed to frigid air and blustery winds, but the average winter day has nothing on the coldest day ever recorded, which was -144 degrees Fahrenheit. The temperature was recorded in Antarctica during a span of research between 2004 and 2016. Just a few breaths of air at that temperature would induce hemorrhaging in your lungs and kill you.

History Fact

Lord Byron kept a bear in his college dorm.

The famous Romantic-period poet was peeved when he found out that Trinity College, Cambridge, didn’t allow dogs on campus.

So, to rebel against the man’s draconian rules he decided to bring a tame bear with him to campus.

Whilst the college’s authorities tried to protest, he won his case as the rules didn’t explicitly state you couldn’t bring a bear to campus.

To parade his victory and gloat to the powers that be, Byron often took his bear for walks around campus on a lead!
