No, red cars do not get more speeding tickets than other cars. This myth probably was started because back in the day sports cars were usually colored red. People may ask if this myth is true because the human eye may see the color red move faster. Police use radar guns, not their eyes, so it doesn't matter how fast it looks like it's going- John Baskin
No, there is no evidence ever found of vikings wearing horned helmets. This myth was started in the 1600's, and the 1700's when romantic writers depicted vikings as violent men, with horned helmets inspired by Roman and Greek texts. These works were made popular in the 1800's. Some priests wore winged, and horned helmets. Not vikings, who were adventurers not priests. The Greeks and Romans saw this and probably used that in their literature. They never had any contact with vikings though. They were making this up long before vikings.- John Baskin
No, lots of people think that ostriches bury their heads in the sand for safety. They do not though. People may think this because when a predator is around ostriches lie on the ground so they look like a bush to predators, and their heads blend in with the sand. Someone probably saw this and thought that the ostrich was sticking its head into the ground. 
No, sugar does not affect how hyperactive the child is. Most children believe it does though, so if you ask if they feel different after eating sugar they will say yes even if they haven't had any sugar. Or if they believe that they have had a lot of sugar, and haven't they will probably say that they are more hyper even though they aren't. So parents, give your kids all the sugar they want ( If you don't care about their teeth).- John Baskin
No, goldfish actually have a 5 month memory span. Scientists trained gold fish respond to a certain sound. After being in the wild for months they still responded. Goldfish are known to recognize their owners, and even have favoritism over one owner or the other. They can be tamed ,too. Sometimes they even stop thinking the owner is a threat. While they are calm around their masters, they are scared around strangers.
No, but cracking your knuckles is still bad for you. It can injure your hands in other ways, it can stretch your ligaments, give you swollen hands, or not let you have strong hand strength. In 1990 a researcher tested 200 people over the age of 45 who did and didn't crack their knuckles and there was no difference in arthritis rates. Osteoarthritis is the main cause of arthritis, not cracking your knuckles. So even if cracking your knuckles doesn't cause arthritis do not crack your knuckles, it will damage your hands.- John Baskin
No, this video was made for a commercial, so it isn't just Kobe Bryant making a video with his friends. In the video you can see that the shadow of Kobe, and the car are about 1 foot away from each other. Also NBA wouldn't let someone like Kobe Bryant do something that dangerous. People in the NBA aren't even allowed to ride motorcycles. Also on live TV Kobe admitted that the video was fake. This still is a cool video because they didn't even use a green screen, they just shot it at an angle. - John Baskin
