SHREK...

Real or unreal?

Did you know that Shrek is based on a real person?
Shrek is famous around the world and he's the ogre loved by all.



Can you imagine what it would be if it existed in the real world?.  There is really no need to imagine it would be like, because the real Shrek was real. The character of Shrek, though unrecognized by Dreamworks, is based on Maurice Tillet, a French fighter who, suffered a serious disease affecting normal body growth, and so, he looks like an ogre.


Maurice lived a very few years, but he mastered 14 languages​​, in addition to becoming a poet. But he also had a dream: to be an actor. He moved to the United States where he got a job, the only one who could get, was a professional wrestler and was conoción as "the ogre of quadrilateral" and then as "the French Angel".

I've found an article that say why Dreamworks will never declare that they copied the image 

of Maurice Tillet:

The likely reason Dreamworks has never owned up to using 

Maurice for Shrek.

The problem for Dreamworks is this:

Those upset by utilizing Maurice appearance and character for their film may have a valid 

argument in the following:

There is a big difference between a man choosing to utilize his own image and condition to 

market himself to make money to live, and that of a production company creating a fictional 

cartoon character for a film.  

It would be too easy for people to go after Dreamworks for using Maurice, a suffering 

human being, who died from his illness, for an Ogre.

Acromegaly is a very personal disfiguring illness.  It comes with both physical and emotional 

consequences that are extremely challenging.  Those that have to live with this condition would 

find it very distasteful that after their death their image might be used to create a cartoon Ogre.  

There is a counter argument here - Please consider the following: 

Maurice himself marketed himself as a monster. He was a performer and from all indications he 

enjoyed performing to that role.  Although we cannot know for certain, I believe Maurice would 

have been proud to have been the inspiration for such a noble character, and positive societal 

influence as Shrek has become.  

Dreamworks really should acknowledge how Maurice influenced both the physical attributes 

of Shrek, and the whole tone of the character and the film.  This seems the proper way to pay 

tribute to how one man became more than himself and became the inspiration for one of our 

most beloved cartoon characters.

Walt Disney

Urban Legends

It is really Walt Disney freeze?

Walter Elias "Walt" Disney (December 5, 1901 – December 15, 1966) was an American animator, film producer, director, screenwriter, voice actor, entrepreneur, entertainer, international icon, and philanthropist, well known for his influence in the field of entertainment during the 20th century. 

A long-standing urban legend maintains that Disney was cryonically frozen, and his frozen corpse stored beneath the Pirates of the Caribbean ride at Disneyland, but Disney's remains were cremated on December 17, 1966, and his ashes interred at the Forest Lawn Memorial Park inGlendale, California. The first known human cryonic freezing was in January 1967, more than a month after Disney's death.

According to "at least one Disney publicist", as reported in the French magazine Ici Paris in 1969, the source of the rumor was a group of Disney Studio animators with "a bizarre sense of humor" who were playing a final prank on their late boss.

His daughter Diane wrote in 1972, "There is absolutely no truth to the rumor that my father, Walt Disney, wished to be frozen. I doubt that my father had ever heard of cryonics.

Legal documents show that his ashes were laid to rest two days subsequent to his cremation in a marked tomb at Forest Lawn Cemetery in Glendale, California. Walt Disney died on the 5th of December, 1966, but the rumours have long continued that his body was cryogenically frozen.

 Why do we yawn?

This is still a mystery. The scientists are not sure 100%. There are many theories. The main one, says That when We are tired, our brain send information to the lungs to say: "I need oxygen." When we do a big yawn, we do a big effort with our muscles, our face become red and our eyes start cry, Because We introduce a big amount of oxygen and we expel carbon dioxide.

The humans aren't a only specie in do yawns, the animals do it too with 6 seconds on average.

And it happens some courious. Why is contagious yawns when We think About that or when we see somebody yawn?. There are too many theories, but the principal is that We've inherited an habit. This was a sign used by our antecesors, when they didn’t have a language, to comunicate to the group that there was time to sleep or rest.

There are too, a study about yawns that says that it depends on trust: yawns are most contagious with anyone of our confidence, than we are not.

After reading this and watching the video, have been able not to yawn?

"Why do we get sleepy after eating a big meal?"

The nap is a cliche in Spain around the world, that's true, but... we have a justification!

We have two organs that need more energy to work properly in our organism when our eating time ends. This organs are the brain and the intestine. That happen because we don't have red blood cells enought in our brain. why? because the brain send this red blood cells to the intestine to help break down the food and carry the nutrients all over your body.

The rest of the body takes this time to slow down and relax.

So... if you have little blood flow, you feel tired. and... what is the solution? The spanish siesta!

Hello! I'm Cristina,

I created this blog because i'm very curious, so I want to share the information with you.
How long does a butterfly live?, Why can we see 3D with a sunglasses with red and blue colour? or What causes a sneeze?. I'll write and answer this type of questions.

For you understand, I've put the first curious question. How can we make nuggets?
