    Did you know that the tallest living tree in the world is a coast redwood named Hyperion?

    Located in Redwood National Park in California, Hyperion stands at a staggering 379.7 feet tall.
    Meanwhile, the oldest known tree in the world is a Great Basin bristlecone pine named
    Methuselah, which is over 4,800 years old!

    Moving on to the world of art, the Mona Lisa is one of the most famous paintings in history, but
    did you know that it was stolen from the Louvre in 1911? The painting was missing for two
    years before it was recovered, and the theft actually helped to increase the Mona Lisa's fame.
    And in music news, the Beatles' "Yesterday" is one of the most covered songs in history, with
    over 2,200 recorded versions!

    Finally, did you know that the human nose can detect over 1 trillion different scents? This is
    thanks to the olfactory bulb, which is responsible for processing smells in the brain. And when it
    comes to our sense of taste, the tongue is not the only part of the equation. Our sense of taste is
    actually influenced by our sense of smell, as well as other factors such as temperature and
    texture.
