For the past few years, the record for the world's heaviest pumpkin was a 2,749-pound 'kin grown in Minnesota - however, this record was beaten *just* last week by brothers Ian and Stuart Paton from Lymington, England, who managed to grow a 2,819-pound gourd:

Many birds push their limits in crazy ways when migrating south in the Fall - such as hummingbirds. The lil’ fellows fly at a speed of about 30 miles per hour (48 km/h) while making the trek, and for long stretches (such as when crossing the Gulf of Mexico) do so non-stop!

Since the founding of the Academy Awards in 1929, no movie with "Autumn" in its name has ever won an Oscar. (Movies with "Spring," "Summer" and "Winter" in their titles have, however!)

We're all familiar with the Harvest Moon video games...but what exactly is a "Harvest Moon" anyways? It's the full moon that occurs closest to the fall equinox - which this year, was visible in the night sky from October 5-7. Keep an eye out for it next year!

The world's most expensive pen (to date) is the Fulgor Nocturnus. Created by Italian pen manufacturer Tibaldi, the Nocturnus is covered in hundreds of miniature diamonds and rubies, and sold for $8 million(!) at a 2020 charity auction in Shanghai.

The first-ever bubble gum was invented by confectioner Frank H. Fleer in 1906. Dubbed "Blibber-Blubber," it was brittle, sticky, and tough to remove after bursting - so tough, that it could only be removed with turpentine.

What’s the fastest mammal in the world? If your first guess was “Cheetah,” you guessed wrong - it’s actually the Mexican free-tailed bat, which can reach speeds of up to 100 miles per hour (about 1.5x faster than a Cheetah’s top speed!)

While most bat species live less than 20 years, a few have been recorded as living for far longer - such as the Siberia Bat, which holds the record for longest-living bat at 41 years old. (That means somewhere out there, there’s a Siberian bat older than the NES!)

While the stegosaurus could grow as large as 9 meters (30 ft) long, it possessed a small brain roughly the size of a lime; poor thing probably never figured out how to get the ice beam in Metroid.

Mostly so I could draw vent comics of my ex, but whatever lol
Did you know that "stegosaurus" means "roof lizard?" When the first stegosaurus remains were identified in 1877, it was mistakenly believed that its plates laid flat on its back, overlapping like roof shingles. The hypothesis proved false...but the name stuck!

Zutton - the Star Wars cantina patron also known as Snaggletooth - is a "Snivvian," an alien species native to Cadomai Prime. Snivvians live much of their lives avoiding Cadomai's harsh winters in underground caverns, and can communicate by snorting through their nostrils.

The largest gingerbread house in the world was created in November of 2013 in Bryan, Texas. Over 18 meters (60 ft) long, 12 meters (42 ft) wide and 6 meters (20 ft) tall, it was effectively a real house - albeit without any witches or cunning children.
