This stuff has nothing to do with football or FIFA or anyhting that should be on this forum at all - so i expect it to be moved, but i'll carry on all the same :D

Did you know that more people on death row in America die of natural causes that leathal injection or the electric chair? This is bacause the average person on death row stays alive for i believe 17 years after being placed there.

Again in America, there were around 53,000 sports related injuries in people aged 65 and over, so I have a message to any silver surfers reading this - ALWAYS WEAR SHINGUARDS :D

But by far my favorite is this fact - in 1992 and once again in America there were nearly 2,000,000 who visited the ER after being injured by, of all thing, there clothing - be careful getting dressed my friends :D
