11 Most Pointless Scientific Studies Ever

7. We All Pee At The Same Speed

Pixar

Perhaps this will come as some comfort to you, but we all pee at the same speed.

In a combined effort between scientists from Taiwan and the USA, we have finally managed to put to rest that age old question: Does body size affect how long you pee for?

Thank god for that.

The scientists discovered that nearly all mammals above 3kg in weight empty their bladders in around 21 seconds. Well sort of. They actually discovered that all mammals above 3kg in weight empty their bladders in around 21 seconds give or take 13 seconds. So, that should actually be nearly all mammals above 3kg in weight empty their bladders in anywhere between 8 and 34 seconds.

Cheers for that insight guys.
