How a slight tap could literally knock down The Empire State Building
Here’s a little fact that doesn’t seem overly interesting at first: A tipping domino can knock over another domino that is about 1.5 times bigger than it is. But here is the astounding implication: If you start with a tiny domino — only 5 millimeters tall — and then set up a series of dominoes, each 1.5 times larger than the previous one, in fewer than 30 blocks, you will have a domino as large as The Empire State Building, which will crash to the ground as a result of tipping the tiny block over. Check it out… (via HyperVocal ) <p style="text-align:right;color:#A8A8A8"></p>For more than 40 years, scientists have tried to figure out what's causing large parts of Canada , particularly the Hudson Bay region, to be "missing" gravity . In other words, gravity in the Hudson Bay area and surrounding regions is lower than it is in other parts of the world, a phenomenon first identified in the 1960s when the Earth's global gravity fields were being charted. Two theories have been proposed to account for this anomaly. But before we go over them, it's important to first consider what creates gravity.

The video below shows scientific proof that there is something NOT quite logical or scientific about this universe. The mere act of observation can completely change the outcome of an event! Before I get too ahead of myself, you need to watch the video below to understand:
10 Strange Things About The Universe
The universe can be a very strange place. While groundbreaking ideas such as quantum theory, relativity and even the Earth going around the Sun might be commonly accepted now, science still continues to show that the universe contains things you might find it difficult to believe, and even more difficult to get your head around. Theoretically, the lowest temperature that can be achieved is absolute zero, exactly ?273.15°C, where the motion of all particles stops completely.
