DYK: Did You Know‪?‬ Ayiesha

Did you know there is a festival in Japan where Sumo wrestlers try to make babies cry? A 400+ year tradition to bring blessings to a crying infant. 

Did you know that cotton candy was created by a dentist? That's right, they lied to us about eating candy. They invented fairy floss to probably gain more business because of how cheap and delicious it is. And I'm not even mad! 

Did you know that an affluent black community was destroyed in a matter of hours? I wanted to shine the light of a community nobody really seems to talk about. A thriving community that didn't stand a chance just based off of their race. 

Did you know chainsaws were originally invented to help women birth their children? No not the one the woodsmen would use, far worse with a hand crank. Oh yeah, I'm hurting just thinking about it!

Did you know that spiderwebs were used as bandages? That's right the silky smooth webs that shoot out of a spiders butt have healing properties, who would have thought?
