Everyone has a fear of something, and some people are unlucky enough to meet their ends courtesy of the things they fear most in life.

Linda Darnell was a Hollywood actress in the 1940s and 1950s, and throughout her life suffered from an intense phobia of fire. Darnell died in a house fire aged 42 in 1965.

Natalie Wood was also an actress, and was terrified of open water and drowning. Natalie Wood died in 1981, when she drowned in the sea off Catalina Island.

I expect that snakes will have something to do with my ultimate demise.

Justin Bieber is now older than Kurt Cobain was when he died. This also weirds me out slightly too.

Haha I was a trivia night a few years ago and there was this long-winded question about the 27 club. They started off mentioning folks like Kurt Cobain, Jimi Hendrix et cetera. Then the actual question came: "How long do we have to wait until Justin Bieber turns 27?"

Over to you, Justin.
 
Today is the 80th anniversary of a surprisingly little-known event during World War 2.

Hitler's second-in-command at the time, Rudolf Hess, decided it would be a terrific idea to parachute into Scotland to try and negotiate a peace with some anti-war British politicans. Of course he was instantly arrested and detained for the remainder of the war before being extradited to Nuremberg to stand trial for war crimes and then spent the rest of his sad life in Spandau Prison until he killed himself in 1987 at age 93.

Should of just gave them a call
 
The stegosaurus had been extinct for at least 80 million years before the T Rex arrived. That means the T Rex lived closer in time to humans than the stegosaurus.

Also, the T Rex lived in the Cretaceous period so they had no business being in Jurassic Park.

That's amazing, mind completely blown. On a similar note, I once thought trilobites existed at the same time as the dinosaurs, but they themselves were extinct for many millions of years before the first dinosaurs arrived on Earth.

There's a few time facts like that. Another one is that Cleopatra lived closer in time to today than the building of the pyramids.

Trilobites apparently went extinct in the same Permian extinction event that brought about the dinosaurs as life recovered, so you were not as far off as I was. (I didn't think they lasted that long, and died out 150-200m years before dinosaurs arrived. Turns out I was wrong.)

They first appeared not long after the Cambrian explosion and the first complex animal life, and survived some 270m years. Trilobites survived a longer span than the gap between humans and the first dinosaurs.

520m years ago - trilobites
252m - end of trilobites
230m - first dinosaurs
