Prized for its glimmering scales and sinuous body, the Asian arowana is one of the world's most expensive aquatic creatures, with some rumored to fetch up to $300,000. While not all are priced in the six figures, a young arowana in Singapore could go for $300, while rare adult white albinos could cost $70,000 or more.

Arowana, also known as "dragon fish," are not the typical pet fish. They are bred throughout South East Asia and can grow to be around three feet long (about the size of a snowshoe).

Caviar is one of the world’s most luxurious foods. So it’s hard to imagine it was once so cheap it was served for free in bars and saloons around America during the 1800s. In the same way nuts are handed out now, these salty fish-eggs were given away to encourage higher beer sales. But over-fishing meant the once abundant levels of sturgeon fish dropped dramatically, causing prices to skyrocket.

Sushi was first created in southeast Asia during the 4th century as a cheap and transportable snack.

You might wonder how they're going to get this skyscraper to stay upright. Standing 1,428 feet tall with a height-to-width ratio of 23-1, New York's 111 West 57th Street will be the skinniest skyscraper on the planet upon its completion.

Story goes that they acid dipped the car, and it buckled the roof so they put a vinyl roof on it!

True or False: Thomas Jefferson and John Adams signed the Constitution

https://i.postimg.cc/QtNSm65N/BBNU1_Yq.jpg

False: Both Jefferson and Adams were out of the country, so neither signed the Constitution. Jefferson was in France and Adams was in Great Britain at the time of the Constitutional Convention.

That back bumper is ready to lighten the car soon! Looks to have had an altercation with someone or something.

According to a report in the local Palawan News, a man in the Philippines was out fishing when his anchor caught on something.

Upon swimming down to dislodge it, he found a giant clam harboring an enormous pearl. The man decided to keep the pearl - which measures in at 1-foot wide, 2.2-feet long, and weighs an astonishing 75 pounds - as a good luck token, which he later entrusted to his aunt after a fire destroyed his home.

If authenticated, the pearl - said to be the biggest natural clam pearl in the world - could be worth $100 million.
