What Fact About Time Totally Messes With Your Mind?

Oxford University is older than the Aztec Empire.

Some random facts can be interesting, while others are simply mind-blowing.

I'm talkin' about the kind of facts that truly mess with your perception of time, people.

For instance, George Washington NEVER knew about dinosaurs. He died in 1799, some 40 years before dinosaurs were even discovered or identified.

Maybe you were shocked to learn that Cleopatra lived closer in time to the invention of the internet than she did to the construction of the Great Pyramid of Giza.

You lied to me, movies.

Or perhaps you were blown away to discover that Americans landed on the moon only 66 years after the Wright Brothers invented human flight.

THAT IS NOT A LOT OF TIME BETWEEN THE TWO FEATS, OK?!
