They were slippers of fur, not glass

- If you truly want to know where Napoleon and his men met their Waterloo, try using La Haie Sainte.

- Cinderella's slippers were not glass. They were fur. Most likely white squirrel fur.

- Our blood is red because it hits the air and the oxygen, thus the red color. Blue would be more accurate.

- Bones are not dry as it seems or brittle as we hear. When in our body they are dripping with blood.

- Bulls do not see red and then get raging mad and charge. Nope, they are color-blind. It's more likely the waving of the cape and because some stranger is in the ring. "Hey, what the heck is that guy doing here"?
