Weird Facts about the Human Body

Hey boys and girls!!

I hope you enjoyed my last post about super senses!! This week I want to talk about some amazing things people can do and how crazy awesome our muscles are.

A few fun facts you might not know about your muscles.

What is the strongest muscle in your body??

People might think that it is your leg muscle or your right arm, but actually it is your tongue!!!!

Our tongue is the STRONGEST muscle in our body compared to its size. This doesn´t mean that you can lift 100 kilos with your tongue, but it means that it is a small muscle that can lift much more than itself.

The same is true for the strongest animal. The ant is the strongest animal, not because it can lift the most weight, but because it can lift over 100x´s its own body weight!

That´s right, I´m sooooo strong!!

How many times a day does your eye move??

The eye muslces move around 100,000 times a day!!! That is more than any other part of your body! How many times do you move your fingers, or legs in one day? I bet it isn´t 100,000 times. Go ahead, try and count how many times you move your arm in one day. 

 Isn´t that amazing!?!?!

One final fact before we go.

Do you think it takes more muscles to frown or to smile?

It takes more muscles to FROWN than to SMILE!!! It takes around 40 different facial muscles to frown, while only about 15 to smile. SO YOU SHOULD SMILE MORE OFTEN!!!

I think everyone looks prettier when they are smiling, so try to smile more often and others will smile too.


Thank you for reading and I´ll see you next week!

Hugs,
