Will Smith passed on The Matrix to make Wild Wild West.
In an interview with Wired, The Fresh Prince was asked if he had any regrets. His response: "You know, The Matrix is a difficult concept to pitch. In the pitch, I just didn't see it. I watched Keanu's performance - and very rarely do I say this - but I would have messed it up. I would have absolutely messed up The Matrix. At that point I wasn't smart enough as an actor to let the movie be. Whereas Keanu was smart enough to just let it be. Let the movie and the director tell the story, and don't try and perform every moment."
So let me get this straight, Will. You just called yourself AND Keanu terrible actors? At least this partially explains why Wild Wild West was soooo terrible. What's funny is that you seemed to take your performance in West so seriously, when even if you had 'let the movie be,' it still would've been awful. And how was The Matrix any harder to pitch? Evil robots having already taken over the world? Sounds a lot more reasonable than a half-robotic Confederate mad scientist trying to take over America in a giant robotic spider...OH, and the Secret Service was formed by Abraham Lincoln, NOT Ulysses S. Grant. Sorry to spoil the surprise ending, but that always really bothered me.
As it turns out, Smith passed up on one of the biggest summer blockbusters of all time to star in one of the all-time worst. The Matrix went on to become the fifth-highest grossing film of 1999 and win four Academy Awards; Wild Wild West, despite the highest film budget that year ($170 million!), only managed five Razzies! Maybe Will wanted to avoid the inevitable Matrix sequels that were nowhere near as good as the original film? Oh wait, he's currently working on Bad Boys III, Independence Day II (followed by IDIII), Men in Black III, I, Robot II, and a prequel to I Am Legend. Never mind.
On the bright side, at least we were spared a Matrix Rap during the film's end credits?

Police mistook a horror movie set for a murder scene.
Firefighters in Pittsburgh were responding to a routine fire call at the George Washington Hotel when they found something completely unexpected - a room covered in blood! They quickly called in the local police, and Chief J.R. Blyth called the scene "the most grisly murder scene he'd seen in 35 years in law enforcement." He proceeded to call in several detectives, who put in EIGHT HOURS of work until they realized the blood (and the piece of "scalp" on the bed) was fake!
In reality, the room had been used to film a B-horror flick starring Corey Haim two years prior. New Terminal Hotel had gone straight to DVD, but the hotel owner left the bloody room untouched because he wasn't sure if the filmmakers would need to return to the scene of the "crime" for reshooting. In all fairness to Pittsburgh's finest, the George Washington has a reputation for being haunted, and four people had actually perished there in the seven years preceding this incident. Heck, Corey Haim himself had even died eight months before the investigation!

A California couple got married over Skype!
Actually, two couples have made use of Skype for their nuptials. Sean Murtagh and Natalie Mead were waylaid in Dubai when an Iceland volcano disrupted their flight plans. They had already been legally married in Australia, but they intended to exchange vows in a public ceremony back home in London. Rather than wait for the next flight to London to have their ceremony, they arranged their wedding in their hotel in Dubai, and used the online videoconferencing software to allow their friends and family to watch. The hotel even chipped in and gave them a three layer wedding cake! You can read about their wedding here.
In perhaps an even more unusual move, Helen Oh and Samuel Kim also married over Skype, but the bride and groom weren't even together! Kim was in the hospital, so they arranged to install a jumbo screen in a church in Fullerton, CA so he could attend his wedding digitally. You can read about their wedding here.

OMG Facts SEX
A Ukrainian scientist invented a condom that plays music. http://mpld.it/0PEit
A Ukrainian scientist has developed a condom that not only protects against pregnancy and those nasty little bugs, it plays music during intercourse.
Hryhory Chausovsky invented the device as a novelty item as well as to make a more pleasurable & inventive experience.
How does it work? Well, there is a mini loudspeaker & motion sensor planted in the condom’s upper cuff that provides a range of musical tones during sex. Hilariously, the volume of music depends on the intensity of your love-making and the tones depend on sexual position. How funny is that….
Chausovsky states, “(The condom’s sound) is directly related to the emotional level of the users,” he said. So mine would be playing a Muppets song?
Interestingly condoms are generally pretty unpopular in Ukraine, so some scientists are trying to test the novelty market to help a country that is suffering from one of the highest HIV-infection rates in the world.
A very novel idea,

Want to regulate your baby's mood swings? Nothing does it like Seven-Up!
In fact, the soda used to be named "Bib-Label Lithiated Lemon-Lime Soda"! This soon got shortened to "7Up Lithiated Lemon Soda," and then just "7Up" in 1936. But why is having lithium as an ingredient strange? Because lithium is used as one of the most common treatments for bipolar disorder!
Its creator, Charles Grigg, included the substance in the soda's formula because he thought it could be used as a selling point. He believed the naturally-occurring lithia found in underground springs that could be promoted as a mood regulator! If you're concerned about the content of the 7Up you're drinking these days, don't worry - lithium was removed from the soda over half a century ago.
Read more about 7Up, including theories about its name and the red dot logo. My favorite debunked theory is that the red dot logo is there to represent Charles Grigg's red eyes.

A man was paid $100,000 to get breast implants.
Brian Zembic is a professional gambler who has had his fair share of bad luck. He has made a name for himself by participating in elaborate bets. In the past he had agreed to live in a bathroom for a week for $14,000, and he lived in a box for a week for $25,000. However, his biggest claim to fame is when he agreed to live with breast implants for $100,000. He did what he would later call his "most stupid" bet out of desperation in 1996 after losing over $100,000 from a bad stock tip.
The breast implants themselves cost $4500. Zembic was able to get the procedure done for free after beating a cosmetic surgeon at backgammon. The original bet was based on an argument he had with another gambler who, after opining that getting breast implants was a crazy thing for women to do, bet Zembic $100,000 that he couldn't have breast implants for over a year. Zembic took him up on the offer, received the $100,000 in 1997, and as of 2006, still has breast implants.
Check out this (potentially NSFW) interview from "The Man Show" with Zembic. Are you allowed to show bare breasts on television if they're on a man?

Although an oak tree can produce more than 2200 acorns in a single season, each acorn only has a 1/10000 chance of becoming an oak tree.
The temperature of a nuclear explosion can exceed 100,000,000�C.
You're probably wondering, so yes, that converts to over 180 million degrees Fahrenheit (not that you'd ever want to know what that feels like). This is about ten times the temperature of the surface of the Sun! What may be even more amazing is that the heat released by a nuclear explosion only accounts for 35 percent of its total energy. At temperatures this high, matter cannot exist in its typical solid, liquid, or gaseous state. This results in a substance being stripped of all its electrons and existing as an ionized plasma!
The heat from a thermonuclear blast can vaporize objects and living things over great distances. Depending on what sort of objects are in its path, a blast can even result in a firestorm of around 1000�C that can melt glass and several metals! This sort of fiery explosion on a Hiroshima-sized scale would scorch everything within a 1.2-mile radius.

The Beatles are the only artists to hold all of the Top Five spots on the Billboard charts at once.
During the week of April 4, 1964, The Beatles held twelve positions on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart, including the top five positions. Neither feat has been been matched by any artist to date.
Since you’re surely wondering, here are those 12 singles and their chart positions that week:
1. “Can’t Buy Me Love” (1)
2. “Twist and Shout” (2)
3. “She Loves You” (3)
4. “I Want to Hold Your Hand” (4)
5. “Please Please Me” (5)
6. “I Saw Her Standing There” (31)
7. “From Me to You” (41)
8. “Do You Want to Know a Secret” (46)
9. “All My Loving” (58)
10. “You Can’t Do That” (65)
11. “Roll Over Beethoven” (68)
12. “Thank You Girl” (79)
The following week, two additional songs made the chart (“Love Me Do” and “There’s a Place”), giving The Beatles FOURTEEN singles in the Hot 100! They also held the top two slots on the album charts that week.

Ubisoft has published a game for Nintendo Wii that puts players into sexually suggestive positions.
The game, called “We Dare,” features players doing all sorts of ridiculous gestures, from kissing their remote with a partner to sliding it down their pants to complete various tasks! The game is apparently so racy that the developer refuses to bring it stateside - it’s only available in Europe! Even the YouTube videos of the game’s ad campaign have been region-restricted, but fortunately the folks at IGN have uploaded it themselves for your entertainment!

In fact, Jacob Barnett is so smart that he’s tutoring his fellow students. Barnett was taken out of his school and placed into the Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis early college entrance program for gifted students (though it’s supposed to be for gifted high school students). However, Barnett’s math skills are as high as someone pursuing a doctorate. He’s also been getting offers to work at research centers. He even has been working on his own physics theories!
In his spare time, Barnett plays classical piano music by memory, watches History Channel documentaries, plays basketball, Halo, and Guitar Hero, and has been working on disproving the theory of the Big Bang. You can learn more about this amazing child prodigy here.

Pikachu is not in the new Pokemon game.
Despite being the most recognizable Pokemon and appearing in all the other Pokemon Gameboy games, Pokemon Black & White will not have Pikachu as a character. While other Pokemon releases featured a mix of new and old monsters to catch, Black & White’s emphasis will be on the new monsters in an attempt to recreate the unfamiliar feeling of playing the original games for the first time. This is essentially a 3-D remake of Pokemon Red and Blue. However, you will be able to import your Pikachu from one of your other Pokemon games after you play through Black & White completely.

An unplugged refrigerator in the AT&T building in San Jose gave off fumes that were so noxious that employees in the office called 911. An office worker with allergies who couldn’t smell anything offered to clean the fridge with some strong chemicals. The mixture of rotten lunches and cleaning chemicals ended up making 28 people in the building sick. Eventually the building was evacuated, 7 employees were sent to the hospital, and a HazMat team was sent in to clean up the mess.
A German U-Boat was sunk because of a toilet!
At the end of World War II, U-1206 met a rather undignified fate. The unfortunate design of the vessel placed its batteries beneath the complex deep-water toilet. After a crew member operated the toilet improperly, it began leaking water onto the batteries. This reaction released poisonous chlorine gas into the sub, forcing it to surface. Upon surfacing, the U-Boat was bombed by the British. 4 of the crew-members died in the attack, and the other 46 were captured.
