Did you know that during the 17th century, the Great Plague of London had people trying all sorts of wacky cures? One popular remedy was strapping a live chicken to the swollen lymph nodes to draw out the disease; talk about desperate times! And did you hear about the law in medieval England where it was illegal to die in the Houses of Parliament? Yep, apparently, it was considered a royal privilege to die there, and they didn't want just anyone claiming it. Also, ever wonder why pirates wear eye patches? It wasn't always due to a lost eye; many believed that keeping one eye covered would help them maintain night vision when moving between the bright above deck and the dark below. Oh, and speaking of pirates, did you know that in the golden age of piracy, a crew's favorite pastime was knitting? Imagine Blackbeard with a pair of knitting needles! So next time you think history's boring, remember it's all in how you stitch it together! What's the quirkiest historical fact you know? Drop a comment below!
