Can you wash a weighted blanket?

Fact

It is impossible to scream while dreaming.

If you often experience nightmares, then you know it feels like trying to scream in your dreams. The inability to scream, run, punch, and walk while dreaming or sleeping is because the motor neurons are switched off while sleeping.

Motor neurons mainly control muscles and glands. Since the tongue and throat are muscles too, you cannot shout in your dreams.

Myth

Camels store water in their humps.

Camels’ large humps store fat, not water, much like the fatty tissue found under human skin. These reservoirs of fat allow camels to survive for days in the desert sun without stopping for food.
