Ritch's Totally Random (& Sometimes Made Up) Facts

[_Ritch_]

You can blame @AmberLGreen for this idea.

I often have these little outbursts of totally random facts that are quite pointless and usually fun. However sometimes I make something up to try and fool someone and this is known as a "Ritch Fact".

My idea is, we all post a "fact" and without consulting Google, we have to decide whether it is true or not.

My starter...

The average human spends more time on the toilet than they do exercising.
