5. False. It is actually less than 1. In 1998 JAMA (Journal of the American Medical Association reported that during a three month period an average of 914 dog bites were reported per day. Since there are 1440 minutes in a day that's less than one per minute.

7. True-ish. Some form of toothbrush has been used since 3000 BC but the modern toothbrush was invented in 1938. Stiff coarse hairs were first used in China in 1498 so that maybe that's where this rumor came from.

8. False-ish. It's actually 20-30 days

9. True. Eww.
