did you know?

Reminds me of the Rammstein song Heifish

The sea gets its saltiness from dissolving the layers upon layers of minerals (including salt) at the sea floor.

CUDDLE TIME!!!

Und der Haifisch der hat Tränen
und die laufen vom Gesicht
doch der Haifisch lebt im Wasser
so die Tränen sieht man nicht.

In der Tiefe ist es einsam
und so manche Träne fließt
und so kommt es dass das Wasser in den Meeren salzig ist.

Rammstein turned this fact into an epic refrain for an epic song.

Oh my **** . Someone on my facebook posted this and someone commented with "I dis tru? Lik im bing srs." Keep in mind that it was a 30-40 year old woman that made that comment.

nope

long,long ago,the caveman already started with beach games like volleyball and stuff like that
and since the beginning of beach games they had sweat
to cool down they went for a swim in the ocean for those millions of years
and that's why it's salty

And i though its because of the semen of whales...

Und der Haifisch, der hat Tränen
und die laufen vom Gesicht;
doch der Haifisch lebt im Wasser -
so die Tränen sieht man nicht.

In der Tiefe ist es einsam
und so manche Zähre fliesst
und so kommt es, dass das Wasser
in den Meeren salzig ist.

Lyrics by Till Lindemann of Rammstein

In English for people who don't understand German:

And the shark, he has tears
And they run from his face
But the shark lives in water
So no one can see the tears

In the deep it is lonely
And so many a tear is shed
And it so happens that the water
In the oceans is salty

>This is defiantly true
>Defiantly true
>Defiantly

OP needs to learn how to English.

i never knew something could be defiantly true

This is defiantly true , so it is a rebellious fact that is true

actuallly sperm whales do not need intercourse to reproduce and just shoot into the water while the female swims through it about 25 gallons are shot off only 3 reach the uterus 22 gallons of semen are released into the ocean every time whales have sex
oceans saltiness explained.
