In A Swedish Art Gallery Displayed
In 1964, a Swedish art gallery displayed 4 paintings by unknown artist Pierre Brassau.
Every single art critic praised the ‘avant-garde’ work- except one, who said, ‘only an ape could have done this’ …and he was right. It was all a hoax by a journalist who wanted to put art critics to the test, and ‘Brassau’ was actually a 4-year-old chimpanzee named Peter.
The loudest sound ever heard on Earth was the eruption of Krakatoa in 1883.
The Indonesian volcano ruptured the ear drums of sailors 40 miles away, and people 3,000 miles away reported it as “a distant roar of heavy guns.”
To put that in perspective, it would be like sitting in Boston and hearing a noise that came all the way from Dublin.
