There is a bug (I can't remember the name) who ends up pregnant with 16 babies, 15 of which are females. The 1 male develops inside the mother, mates with all his sisters, then dies before he is born, and the females are then born pregnant.

None of the members of the Film Actors' Guild in Team America gave permission for their likenesses and names to be used. Parker and Stone went for it anyway.

In the film The Football Factory, all of Bill's lines when he and Fred are at the kids' football match were improvised, right down to the "are you pissed off cos you gotta open your kebab shop in 10 minutes?" slur. Tamer Hassan (Fred)'s disgusted look was genuine.

Frogs use their eyes to aid in swallowing food.

Ants cannot blink.

The stegosaurus had a brain (or a mass of nerves that could serve as a brain) in its rear.

The composer of the musical score for Tron and A Clockwork Orange (among other things) was known as Walter Carlos until 1972 when he had gender reassignment surgery and renamed herself Wendy Carlos.

(I have no idea if that's a good fact or not)

The name Wendy was created for the book 'Peter Pan' - before that it wasn't a name.
