I run a pub quiz, and one of my regular questions is whether an odd fact is "true or false".
Recent examples of false facts are "Formula One legend Michael Schumacher once lost a million dollars at poker in a single day at Monte Carlo" and "Audrey Hepburn was the first actor/actress to play the character of Ronald McDonald".
I'm asking you to suggest false, but plausible, "facts".
Best answer will be the one which makes me laugh most whilst still being believable.

The melting of the North Pole makes no difference to the sea levels around the globe. It's just a thick ice sheet floating on top of the Arctic Ocean. Same principle as ice cubes in a drink. Your glass don't overflow when the ice melts.
Not true, but it could be.

The game 'Monopoly' was created by a heater salesman named Charles Brace Darrow and his family in 1935 during the Great Depression.
False
The game we now know as 'Monopoly' was orignally called 'The Landlords Game'. 'The Landlords Game' was created by a woman named Elizabeth Magie in 1905 and released as a game in 1910. Charles Brace Darrow recreated the game during the Great Depression. It hit stores in 1935 as 'Monoploy' and has been "America's No. 1 Game" ever since!
