The human brain runs on the same amount of power as a low-powered light bulb! Rose Richardone, aged 92, worked at Macy's New York store for 73 years, from 1939 to 2012! Sebastian Trager from Worbis, Germany, built a working replica of Fred Flintstone's famous stone-age car from a Volkswagen Polo, but it was banned from the roads!
