• The credit for the first knock-knock is often given to Shakespear, who presented the first one in his famous play, Macbeth.
• In 585 B.C.E., there was a solar eclipse that terrified the Medians and the Lydians so much that they forgot about the vicious battle and fled the battlefield in fear.

     This one is a little bit sillier, but I thought it would be fun to include it.

• In 1799 a young boy found a rock and his family used it for a doorstop for three years. Turns out it was actually solid gold and they just hadn’t noticed.
