Fact:
That's because it's measured in micro units. If it was any thicker or if you tried to build a shield out of a collection of human hair, you'd be screwed. |

Cockroaches can survive a nuclear bomb, so does that mean we can make a shield out of cockroaches?
Stop picking on me. |

I'm not picking on you. I'm picking on the fact. Scientists spread it around like it's incredible. It really isn't, and it's totally useless information. Anything would be indestructible if it was that small. You can't smash a tiny piece of dust in half, can you?

Yeah, it should actually be...
"Human hair is resistant to bludgeoning damage".
Human hair is vulnerable to tons of things. Fire, (lack of heat/freezing), acid, piercing damage, and uh... anything chemical or sharp.

It's possible to split up atoms ...

Yeah, it's not really indestructible. It's resistant to bludgeoning damage. |

Simply speaking, human hair doesn't deform. It retains its shape when you step on it or smash it. This is why if you pull your hair it doesn't become curly.

You guys are just being silly. Listen up. I'm a teenager. Right there in itself makes me indestructible.
Fact:
At the center of a NUCLEAR warhead, where the atoms are literally ripping apart, every element in the universe is created.

^Love the teenager comment
- The human is the only primate that makes fists, as other primates hands are adapted for climing and therefore have longer fingers and shorter thumbs, making it much more difficult.
- Humans are also the only animal to show teeth as a gesture of happiness, all other animals use it to show aggression.

That's basically the same thing as 2² = 4. And it's pronounced as 2 to the 2nd power, not the square root of 2^4 LOL.

What are you guys talking about?
Fact: 2^4 and 4^2 are the only two number combinations that can have their positions switched and create the same number, 16.
Bonus Fact: The Sqrt 2 lead to the deaths of hundreds of mathematicians hundreds of years ago because it is not a real number. It is a decimal that does not repeat, they thought the person who came up with it was literally doing witchcraft, and they killed everyone following him. Look it up:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pythagoras
He is known for the Pythagorean Theorem.

Well, we made a rule of this Math fact in Team Speak that we can only use 2's and 4's. So first he used 2+2, then I used 2×2, he uses square root of 4 afterwards which is 2, and finally I used 2 to the 2nd power which is 4. But 2^4 is 2 to the 4th power which is 16, but I've already used the exponent way to do this with 2's and 4's. He has to come with a different operation with the 2's and 4's. So therefore I win.

Got another math fact with 2's and 4's only:
4-2 = 2
Derp. Beat you again ODST.
