by Daphnie

Some of us might know some really random facts that we've learned over the years of being in school, searching the internet, or knowing people who knew different things. Regardless, we can all probably tell one random fact that we've learned over the years.

Well, on Reddit, which is where people love to share stories, ask for advice, or ask questions, someone came on there and asked people to share some mildly disturbing facts that they knew. This actually brought a lot of people to the thread as they shared some disturbing and wild facts.

Honestly, some of these I don't even want to know where they learned them because some of them are actually pretty disturbing. Overall, these facts are some of the ones that we haven't even heard of before which makes the whole post even that much more interesting.

So, if you're someone who loves to learn new things and is looking to know more about random facts then you're in the right place. We for sure wanted to share some of these facts with you so we compiled the best disturbing facts that we could find on the Reddit post.

Let's dive in and check out some of the best comments left on this post.

"The entire Universe outside our galaxy could have completely disappeared over 20,000 years ago and we still wouldn't know it yet. Our view of the Universe is actually what it looked like anywhere from thousands to Billions of years ago -with no way to see what it actually looks like "right now".

Imagine if you looked out your front window and saw your yard as it was 6 months ago, neighbors house across the street a year ago, and houses a block or two away as they were several years ago. Also off in the distance you see the glaciers from the last ice age.

That's what it's like looking out at the Universe."
