“There Are Over 300 Bodies On The Tops Of Mount Everest”: 30 Creepy Facts That Are Anything But Fun

Who doesn't love a deep dive into a rabbit hole of interesting facts? I know I do... sometimes (or often) at the most ungodly hours. But every now and again, I come across something that I wish I hadn't. The type of information I'm convinced I was better off not knowing. The stuff that keeps me awake even later at night, brewing over, or worrying about, whatever it was that I just read.

Did you know that thousands of lives are cut short every year because of doctors' sloppy handwriting? Or that when a pregnant woman is buried, the gases inside her can push the baby out... A grim occurrence known as coffin birth. These are just two creepy facts that were mentioned when someone posted on TikTok, "Tell me the scariest fact you know. I don't want to sleep tonight."

Bored Panda has bravely gone through more than 20,000 comments to select the ones that gave us a case of the creeps. Feel free to add more in the comments section, and don't forget to upvote your favorites.
