    Napoleon Bonaparte was once forced to retreat by a massive herd...of rabbits. After signing the treaties of Tilsit in 1807, a rabbit hunt was arranged. More than 3000 rabbits were collected and caged. When the rabbits were released from their cages, they swarmed the emperor and his hunting party. Napoleon was initially amused, but this changed when he was nearly overwhelmed by thousands of biting and clawing bunnies. Beating a hasty retreat, the emperor was forced to flee the field of battle in his carriage. The rabbits, it seems, were not wild, but tame ones purchased from local farms. They were kept in cages for several days, without any food. When released, the starving bunnies ran to the nearest human, looking to be fed. You just KNOW someone got shot for that one.

    While we're on the subject of rabbits. When I was a kid. I was told that if you chase a rabbit, it will run twice, but the third time it'll lay still, and you can pick it up. Never actually tried it, so I'm not sure if it's true.

    If you unravelled all the DNA in every cell in the human body and laid it out end to end, it would stretch for a tenth of a light year.

    That's nearly 108 billion kilometres, or about 1.8 metres of DNA per cell.

    If you carry 3 mugs in one hand, hold a tray with breakfast on in the other and try to open the bedroom door with your foot, there is a high chance of failure. Apparently…

    Kate O'Mara was supposed to return later for 4 more additional episodes on Dynasty in 1986, but she never came back as she preferred doing a theatrical tour in England.
