11. That Cheered Him Up

11. That Cheered Him Up

This is a weird one. When we go to see animals in a zoo, we don't generally expect them to look as happy to see us as we are to see them. They're captive, for a start, and even if they don't mind being captive, animals don't express joy in the same way we do. Whoever took the picture has decided that they want this monkey to look as happy about being in the shot as she does. Fridman saw the issue straight away; the monkey is stood in a pool of freezing cold water. Who'd be happy about that?

In fixing the problem, Fridman has employed a little role reversal. The monkey is now safe and dry out of the water, and has every reason to look pleased about the situation. The unfortunate girl, though, has taken its place. Now she's wet, and she's finding out why the monkey was never smiling in the first place. Also, that monkey has quite the selfie game going on.

Did You Know...

Over the years, weve seen so many food trends come and go, such as ramen burgers, matcha, and spiked ice-cream. Nowadays, were seeing another trend making waves in the food industry. How many times today have you seen an Instagram photo of a scoop of black ice cream, or a cup of black yogurt, or hamburgers with black buns? Indeed, the charcoal trend has taken the world by storm.

So, what gives your latte that deep black shade? Activated charcoal, or coconut ash, is produced by heating coconut shells to insanely high temperatures until theyre burnt to a crisp. The ashes are then increased in size by steaming at high temperatures. Through this process, the ashes become a strong detoxifier, mostly because they become extra absorbent. This product may be purchased in pill form, and promises to alleviate hangovers, minimize the effects of food poisoning, and fight the visible signs of aging.

Activated charcoal is said to boost ones energy as a result of decreasing toxins in the body. However, no evidence proves that detoxifying can lead to increased energy. Also, while it can help cure a hangover, it doesnt necessarily remove alcohol from your blood. It is also said to aid in debloating your stomach because it cleanses your colon but again, this all anecdotal and isnt supported by scientific evidence as of yet. All we can say for sure is that it is a proven detoxifier.
