Humphrey Bogart was the 7th cousin of Diana Spencer The repopulate the world to current levels, a hens egg full of human ova and an anadin capsule full of sperm would suffice- assuming each one successfully fertilised, of course.

McFaul 35 Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 Football related one this but I didn't know this till I was browsing wiki the other day. When Luis Suarez was playing for Ajax, Albert Luque chinned him in the dressing at half time in a game against Feyenoord, I forgot Luque even played for them.
