Which of These 3 Historical Facts Is False?
❤️ - The Great Pyramid of Giza took over 20 years to build.
🔥 - In Ancient Greece, only male citizens could vote.
👍 - In Ancient China, the compass was used for navigation 4000 years ago.
❓ Which one do you think is a myth?
Correct answer: 3️⃣ — False.
🔍 The compass was invented in China, but around 2000 years ago, not 4000 — and it was first used for feng shui, not navigation. The Pyramid of Giza did take about 20 years to build, and in Greece, only free male citizens were allowed to vote.
FORBIDDEN TOPICS OF THE PAST
Throughout history, some topics were too dangerous to discuss. Here are three real examples:
1️⃣ Women’s right to education
In many societies, even suggesting female education was taboo. Women were seen as "incapable of abstract thinking."
2️⃣ Secrets of the human body
Anatomy was banned for centuries. Dissection was a sin, and doctors studied the body through legends or battlefield wounds.
3️⃣ Atheism and freedom of thought
In medieval Europe, admitting atheism could lead to execution. Freedom of belief is a recent historical privilege.

🔥 SCANDALS OF THE PAST: MURDER ON LIVE TV
📍 USA, 1963.
Two days after the assassination of John F. Kennedy, the main suspect, Lee Harvey Oswald, was shot live on television in front of millions of viewers.
Nightclub owner Jack Ruby simply stepped out of the crowd and shot him in the stomach. Jack Ruby (real name: Jacob Rubenstein) was arrested on the spot and claimed he killed Oswald as an act of revenge for Kennedy’s murder.
In 1964, the Warren Commission concluded that neither Oswald nor Ruby was part of a conspiracy and both acted alone. Jack Ruby died of lung cancer in 1967 before his final legal judgment was made.
📺 It was the first time in history that a person was murdered live on television.

The brand "Waterloo Teeth" became famous for the high quality of such material — after all, many young soldiers with healthy teeth died in that battle.

🕵️♂️ HISTORICAL MYSTERY: THE BODY THAT WOULDN’T AGE
In the 1920s, a small funeral home in Arkansas, USA, received the body of an unknown man. He had died in a gunfight, and no one came to claim him. The funeral director embalmed the body — but did it so well that it didn’t decompose for decades. Eventually, instead of burying it, they left the body on display.
It became a local legend. People came to see the “Arkansas Mummy.” Children grew up — and the body remained. 30 years. 50. 60.
In 1976, the body was finally buried. But analysis revealed that the tissues were almost perfectly preserved. The man’s identity was never confirmed.
🧩 Mystery: How did the body remain in such condition for over 60 years without special equipment or conditions?

🏛️ Banned Music: Jazz as the Enemy of the State
In the 1930s, jazz was declared "degenerate music" in Nazi Germany. It was labeled the "music of the enemy" because it was popular among African Americans and Jews, and it symbolized freedom and improvisation—things totalitarian regimes feared most.
The Nazis created special lists of banned compositions and musicians. Listening to jazz was considered dangerous—it could lead to fines, arrest, or even being sent to a concentration camp. Musicians who still played jazz were persecuted or forced to emigrate.
But even under repression, jazz survived underground. People listened to it secretly, organized private parties, and passed records from hand to hand. Jazz became more than just music—it became a symbol of resistance and freedom of thought in a world where every step could be fatal.
