Publisher's Synopsis

A collection of extreme, gross-out, cringe-worthy-and irresistible-trivia.

How long does the human head remain conscious after decapitation?

What fish communicates by farting?

What birds use vomit and poop as weapons?

What worm lives in your intestine and may crawl out your nose?

What is 'liquid cat?'

What historical figure drank the ashes of her dead husband?

What men can tie their penises into knots?

From trivia expert Don Voorhees, Disgusting Things: A Miscellany is the ultimate book of outrageous, revolting, and repugnant trivia, a collection of equally upsetting and intriguing facts that will leave the reader grossed out and wanting more.
