The small/large intestine combined is just over 7 meters long, and I think the vessels is like 50,000 miles or something.

These statistics are fucking stupid. Did you know if you take something that's very compressed, then estimate it's length uncompressed, it covers more area!?

I don't think there's a length requirement needed to orbit a planet.

Exactly something like that.

Weird fact but true.
Thanks REP.

Seen this before. It's insanely thick. 7 was the limit on actually folding a sheet of paper if I remember right.

7 might be the limit for unidirectional folding in half
