Head sets
Wearing headphones for just an hour will increase the bacteria in your ear by 700 times. 
Brain
Did you know? Your brain uses twice as much energy as the rest of your body. 
Sleep Vs Food
Humans can do longer without food than sleep. While you might feel better prepared to stay up all night partying than to give up eating, that feeling will be relatively short lived. Provided there is water , the average human could survive a month to 2 without food depending on their body fat and other factors. Sleep deprived people, however, start experiencing radical personality and psychological changes after only a few sleepless days. The longest recorded time anyone has ever gone without sleep is 11 days, at the end of which the experimenter was awake, but stumbled over words, hallucinated and frequently forgot what his was doing. 
Liver Functions
Scientist have counted over 500 different liver functions. You may not think much about your liver except after a long night of drinking, but the liver is one of the body's hardest working, largest and busiest organs. Some of the functions your liver performs are: production of bile, decomposition of red blood cells, plasma protein synthesis, and detoxification. 
Main Cause of diseases
Over 90 percent of diseases are caused or complicated by stress. That high stress job you have could be doing more than just wearing you down each day. It could also be increasing your chances of having a variety of serious medical conditions like depression, high blood pressure and heart disease. 
Snoring
By 60 years of age , 60 percent of men and 40 percent of women will snore. If you've ever been kept awake by a snoring loved one you know the sound can be deafening. Normal snores average around 60 decibels, the noise level of normal speech, intense snores can reach more than 80 decibels, the approximate level caused by a jackhammer breaking up a concrete. 
Full Bladder
A full bladder is roughly the size of a soft ball. No wonder you have to run to the bathroom when you feel the call of the wild. 
Hair
At the same thickness hair is strong as a wire of iron. 
Your pupil
When you are looking at someone you love, your pupils dilate. They do the same when you are looking at someone you hate. 
Particular body functions proceed for minutes, hours, days and sometimes even weeks after the actual death. Here is a list of them, some quite unexpected. 1. Giving birth Unbelievable as it may sound, it did happen back in the day, enough to create the sweet little term “coffin birth”. Long time ago people used to die in great numbers which included many pregnant women. The gases forming inside a body together with the softening tissue cause the ejection of the fetus. Although occasional, this type of event was documented before there was proper burial. Aren’t you happy now you live in the modern world? 2. Brain activity (with drugs) When the heart stops, there’s no breathing so the doctors would pronounce a person dead while the brain is not dead, yet. Brain cells need oxygen and nutrients to stay alive, so if they are deprived from them for more than a few minutes the damage is irreparable even if the heart starts pumping again. With drugs and under favorable circumstances, the minutes before the damage gets severe can be prolonged to days. 3. Defecation When stressed, the body loosens particular muscles and the process just happens. The reason defecation happens to the dead body is the gas produced inside and it can occur several hours after death. So it’s safe to say this may be the last thing we do in life or, well, after. 4. Urination Similar to N.3, it can happen hours after death. While peeing is a voluntary function, not-peeing is not as it is directed by a part of the brain that holds the urinary sphincter shut. Too much alcohol, for example, may suppress that part of the brain causing a person to pee involuntarily. Tightening of the muscles takes a few hours after death so it’s quite possible for a dead person to urinate. 5. Vocalization Considering the amount of gas in the human body, it needs to get out once the person is dead and one way is through the windpipe. Because all the muscles, the vocal cord included, are already tightened the sound coming out of the dead body could be a very creepy moan, groan or squeak. Doesn’t it give you chills?

Tasting
A person cannot taste food unless it is mixed with saliva. For example, if a strong-tasting substance like salt is placed on a dry tongue, the taste buds will not be able to taste it. As soon as a drop of saliva is added and the salt is dissolved, however, a definite taste sensation results. This is true for all foods.
