That there are 206 bones in the male body - 207 if you want to be metaphoric and silly like me. At birth the human body has about 350 bones, but by the time adulthood rolls around, some of our bones have fused together to give us a total of 206 bones in our body! Here is the breakdown: The adult skeleton consists of 206 bones . . . - 28 skull bones (8 cranial, 14 facial, and 6 ear bones); - the horseshoe-shaped hyoid bone of the neck; - 26 vertebrae (7 cervical or neck, 12 thorax, 5 lumbar or loins, the sacrum which is five fused vertebrae, and the coccyx, our vestigial tail, which is four fused vertebrae); - 24 ribs plus the sternum or breastbone; the shoulder girdle (2 clavicles, the most frequently fractured bone in the body, and 2 scapulae); - the pelvic girdle (2 fused bones); - 30 bones in our arms and legs (a total of 120); - There are also a few partial bones, ranging from 8-18 in number, which are related to joints. |

Also if you spread your arms as wide as possible and measure from fingertip to fingertip the length will be the same as your height.

Clenching one fist is the size of your heart.
clenching two fists next to each other is the size of your brain. Your neck is 1/4 the size of your waist. (if you dont believe me, take a pair of pants that fits your waist. make sure the pants are fastened, and wrap the outside of the waistband around your neck. It will fit about the same as it fits your waist) |

And the human body is taking longer and longer to decay because of the amount of chemicals and preservatives we consume |
