How long it takes the average mammal to urinate?
Did you know that the average mammal takes around 21 seconds to empty its bladder? So, if you thought that you were spending too much time on the toilet, you should know that you are not the only one.
Yet, according to a study done by researchers from the Georgia Institute of Technology, most mammals that weigh more than six pounds take around 21 seconds to urinate.
Also, according to Live Science, this process happens because the urethra is appropriately scaled to be a flow-enhancing device. So, the perfectly enhanced flow takes 21 seconds to complete.
Chewing gum is illegal in Singapore
Did you know that it is illegal to chew gum in Singapore? The authorities have banned chewing gum in order to keep the city clean. This rule applies to spitting and urinating anywhere but in a toilet and you are obligated to flush, whether you are opting for a public bathroom or your own.
Well, we think that this is actually a good idea because this way you maintain the city cleaned and other people do not have to clean after you.
Chewing gum has been banned since 1996 in Singapore, but in 2014, the government made an exception for therapeutic, dental or nicotine gums, but you have to prove the purpose.
