The most kisses face in human history is the one on the cpr dummy. This was based on the death mask of an unidentified young women who drowned in Paris and who the coroner had an unhealthy fixation to the point he made her face into the cpr dummy

Incredibly so

The lifeboat regulations when Titanic sank hadn't been updated to cover ships over 10,000 tons; Olympic and Titanic were over 40,000. The politician responsible for updating those regulations was the President of the Board of Trade: Winston Churchill. The body which conducted the British inquiry to apportion blame was the Board of Trade.

He honestly has one of the most interesting and fascinating political careers in human history.

Speaking of Churchill:

Churchill was surprisingly accident-prone, suffering numerous mishaps throughout his life, including falling off a bridge, nearly drowning, dislocating his shoulder, crashing a plane, and being hit by a car.

One of those mishaps actually led to the discovery of penicillin

Unfun fact of the day. Cats are the only animal we know of that domesticated themselves. It is believed they showed up one day to just start living with humans as they found the arrangement beneficial.

One possible backstory has small felines realising that there was a plentiful supply of rodents in the earliest foodstores which humans constructed after the development of farming.

 

[Him15]

Yep, actually its part of the orign for the phrase its raining cats and dogs. As cats would be looking for rodents in the thatched roofs, dog would chase them and they fall through.
