The Stupid Statistics Thread

Hey everyone!

This is the stupid statistics thread. If you've heard a stupid statistic...an interesting statistic....or a statistic that you think was a complete waste of the funding....then post it here.

I'll start it...

The average person eats 8 spiders while asleep in their lifetime...

Women over 35 have a .5% chance of getting married

One hundred thousand dogs are killed each year falling out of pickup trucks.

Potsy from happy days- his uncle created the Heimlich maneuver.

can it be statistics which are obviously misinforming or an allout lie?
if so, my favorite was in another thread where a poster stated that 70% of all americans cannot identify their own country on a world map. these 'valid' statistics were based on a website this individual was shown briefly and late forgot the address laughing out loud

i have read so many others, but that one shines above the rest in stupidity.

It's more like 11 percent and it's young people who were asked yes

http://news.nationalgeographic.com/...operSurvey.html

"About 11 percent of young citizens of the U.S. couldn't even locate the U.S. on a map. The Pacific Ocean's location was a mystery to 29 percent; Japan, to 58 percent; France, to 65 percent; and the United Kingdom, to 69 percent."
