Probed for animal related trivia due to a bet between Norm and
Coach, Cliff comes up with this little known fact about
whales: |
|
You take your average whale's intestines and stretch them
out.....You're looking at three miles and change.
Coach wins the bet.
The truth:
This bit of trivia comes up quite short. Three miles measures
15,840 feet and we're not counting the change. The average
whale's intestine is 5 - 6 times the length of it's body and
the longest whale was 110 feet for an estimated 660 feet of
intestines.
Some more
intestinal trivia:
-
A human intestine is about 26 feet long.
-
The large intestine is only about 5 feet long.
-
The small intestine measures 18 - 21 feet.
