I can see the faulty logic behind toothpaste, as most contain menthol, which feels cool. Unfortunately, menthol binds to a different receptor than capsaicin does; meaning you can feel both the heat and cool at the same time. They do not cancel out sadly.

Food Theory did a series of videos on the same idea. Testing a variety, and then mixing together the ones that worked best to get an ultimate cure I believe (its been a bit since i watched it so might be mis-remembering) They ended up with a cooled Peanut-butter/honey mixture Cooled to give a sensation count to the eat And a thick texture so it sticks in your mouth and keeps the relief when not actively eating/drinking it, so it lasts longer

And, ironically, setting off hot/cold receptors in close proximity simulates or worsens pain in some cases (vsauce did this on mind field by laying his arm on a tray of alternating warm/cool hotdogs, causing a burning sensation)

I always thought that the elephants may not be afraid of the mice, they may care for the mice. They may simply not want to step on it and kill it inadvertently. Of course, they could also be afraid of it because they think that small animal may be venomous, like a snake could be?

As to the elephant and the mouse, is the elephant reacting to the colour (white) of the mouse and not the mouse? Would the elephant have reacted the same way to a natural-coloured, grey mouse? Or to a white pingpong ball as a test of colour? I rate this one as inconclusive without those two tests.

In the US, live fish were stored short-term in crowded barrels during the 19th and early 20th centuries. Clearly, shooting a fish in such a barrel would have been trivial. So I think the MythBusters were over-complicating this one...

You can't shoot a fish in a barrel full of water because of refraction. The light gets refracted, so changes direction, when it passes from the water into the air. So you don't see where the fish really is.

If you have some fish in a barrel and you shoot at the barrel, chances are you will hit a fish as they effectively can not go anywhere, you don't need to be able to see them. This is why the saying means that whatever the person is referring to is very easy.

"The climate of Cape Town is Mediterranean, with very mild, rainy winters and warm to hot, sunny summers. The city is located in the South African Republic, on the southwest coast. In summer, temperatures are not excessively high because of the influence of the ocean, though sometimes a hot and dry wind called Berg, able to raise the temperature to around 35 °C (95 °F), blows from the mountains. On the contrary, a strong southern breeze called Cape Doctor often blows in summer, cooling and cleaning the air. Above the top of Table Mountain, the flat-topped mountain overlooking the city, about a thousand meters (3,300 feet) high, a layer of clouds often forms, which the city's inhabitants call in a colloquial manner "tablecloth". Even though the winter is mild, there can be some cold and windy days. On the coldest nights of the year, the temperature can drop to around freezing. At other times, the warm wind from the northern mountains can blow in this season as well, so much so that the temperature can reach 30 °C (86 °F) even in winter"

Elephants afraid of the mice actually has a tinge of truth in it. If a mouse got inside of the trunk of an elephant, it would cause suffocation. Old books on the subject said that, apart from scaring war elephants with flaming pigs, people used mice to kill enemy elephants. Mice are soaked in poison and released onto enemy's war elephant stables. The mice that was feeling hot by the poison would look for a wet hole to cool themselves, and this could be the water trough or the elephant's trunk. This would do damage to the enemy's camp, especially when the scared and poisoned elephants wreak havoc before dying.

Ok, so to be safe I'll need: - A mouse in Africa (A weapon for the north though. And the south if you're white) - Heavy shielding and the biggest meanest automatic gun in North America - Nothing in Europe. At least in the west. But it's getting more unsafe every year due to illegal migration - Nothing in Australia, it's unsafe anyways due to all those predators there! - Be the communist leader in Asia, if not you're f'ed - Just a vest, maybe a bulletproof car and an automatic gun in South America So I'll stay in Europe 😅 And hope it stays relatively safe... If not the only safer place is joining the penguins at the pole 😂
