In Christopher Columbus' time people knew the world was round.

 

I swear they didn't

Actually, MoogleViper is right. Most people (except for peasants) knew the world was round, because of the work of their scientists. The scientists also fairly accuratly predicted the size of Earth, and many thought Columbus would have to run into other land before reaching India, because the Earth was simply too large.

 

Also, Columbus, until the day he died, firmly believed that he had landed in India.

Eh, my mom often farts when she sneezes and she hasn't exploded yet.

 

One other thing I heard/read somewhere is that if you sneeze with your eyes open, they will pop out. Guess that'll only work if someone forces them to stay open, as naturally your eyes always close when you sneeze, I think.
