Random Fun Facts 6-10

Here comes the second set of random fun facts.

Fun Fact 6: UNSC Light Tank
In the Halo universe, the United Nations Space Command's main battle tank is the M808B "Scorpion". Did you know this is considered a light tank. What a joke that is! You'd think that if humans had ordnance as strong as the Scorpion that they'd be winning the Covie/Flood war easily.

Fun Fact 7: Trekkies to Stargate
Last time I checked the Stargate Wiki, at least 30 actors from the Star Trek series have made some sort of appearance in the Stargate series.

Fun Fact 8: Smallest Country in the World
The smallest country in the world is Vatican City, with a size of less than half a square kilometer.

Fun Fact 9: End of the World?
The Mayan calender ends on December 21, 2012. End of the world? Probably not. Time to get a new calender? Probably.

Fun Fact 10: Elephant Athletics
Elephants can't jump.

Louis Ferreira who plays in the Stargate Universe character Colonel Everett Young, has played Trevis, the holographic Star Trek character. Quite a difference in character no?

Random Fun Facts 1-5

I've decided to start posting little fun facts I find interesting on this blog. Just relax and chill. Maybe laugh a bit or think about some of this stuff.

Fun Fact 1: Terry Fox's Real Name
I bet you don't know that Terry's real name is Terrance Stanley Fox. Just thought I should throw out there that Terry and I share a similar pronunciation on our first names.

Fun Fact 2: Watching Television is Not Bad For You
Physically anyways. The old televisions had lead in them, and obviously staring at a heated box full of lead for an entire day could be pretty bad. Watching television is now safe. As long as you don't become obsessed with it.

Fun Fact 3: Colonel Jake O'Niall From RuneScape
If you've ever watched Stargate SG-1, then you'll see the similarities between Colonel Jack O'Neill of the Stargate program and Colonel Jake O'Niall from Slug Menace.

Fun Fact 4: What Does Dood Mean?
If you've ever seen a Prinny from Disgaea, then you must've heard it say dood at some point of their phrases. The word dood means death in Dutch.

Fun Fact 5: Titanic and Titanic Movie Cost Comparison
The Titanic move costed almost thirty times more to make than the actual Titanic ship.

I've always wanted to share random pieces of trivial knowledge, and so I will. Keep updated to find more random fun facts.
