Mga sayop gitudlo sa akoa katong skwela pa kow:

5 - 6 = cannot be (hehe, pero sa elementary ra na)
Liver is the largest organ (it's the skin)
Agapito Flores invented the flourescent lamp
Water conducts electricity (pure water doesn't conduct electricity)
Fats give food its delicious taste (pure fat/oil is colorless, odorless, tasteless)
Lapu-Lapu killed Magellan (as if to say si Lapu-lapu jud nag dunggab kang Magellan)
The Great Wall of China is the only man-made structure visible from the moon (confirmed false by astronauts in space and moon)

To be continued...

Nice post.

Another one similiar to the Agapito Flores myth...

...an engineer named Eduardo San Juan invented the lunar rover. I busted this myth here:

BTW, it's even difficult to see the Great Wall of China from low-earth orbit (about 130 miles up), what more from the moon (235,000 miles away)?

Biggest Misconception we learn from school => "Study hard, Get good grades, and have a good stable job" and then when we graduate reality sits in.. Applicant waiting in line : "Wth!! Kalisod naba ipangita trabaho krn kelangan experience, kailangan naa backer, Sh#t I'm doomed!". And when you look up on history books and even current news like most of the rich didnt even graduate from college.. Now you call that science.. hehehe

its called the science of getting rich - u may check that book out

[*sludge*]

1. Napoleoon Bonaparte's death was caused by gastric cancer not by murder (arsenic poisoning)

2. First mass was held on Mazaua island not in Limasawa island

that's so far i can think of
