Dunno apprently it's a verified fact, I may have to try it out some time.

 

Also I am not sure about this one:

 

Apprently in 1998 Sony sold 700,000 camcorders that had the technology to see through people's clothes.... sounds a bit iffy to me.

I did that grape thing some time ago, only I don't make it explode, I slice it in half with each side just hanging from each other, dry the inner part with a peace of paper, put the grape in the most effective part of the microwave, and watch it create a plasma ball.

Another from QI.

 

Thomas Crapper was born about 10 years after the flush toilet was invented. The relevance to 'Crap' / 'Crapper' was a coincidence

 

 

No you got it mixed up. The flush toilet was invented centuries ago by the chinese. The word crap was used ten years before his birth

Birds dont pee at all. They crap out pure ammonia.

I know this, because I have never seen a bird peeing, and I asked my biology teacher why this was.
