The Most Extreme

So its 4 am and I'm watching "The Most Extreme" on Animal Planet... tonights edition is the most extreme global conquerors. We have bunnies, and cats, and parakeets. Of course we already know what the number one global conqueror is... the cockroach. Everybody knows odd little factoids about cockroaches. They can withstand 200 more times radiation than humans. They can live a without food for months, live off a fingerprint for a month, live without their head for a week or more... but that's not the point of this post.

I found it humorous that the show kept on cutting to odd little factoids about things completely unrelated... for example. Right in the middle of the explaination on how cats were taken all over the world, they cut to the popularity of hola hoops. At the very end, during the middle of the cockroach exploits... they cut to the Rubiks cube...

There is a 16 year old that can solve the Rubiks cube in less than 16 seconds... behind his back. Forget about the cockroaches... now THAT is scarey.
