Knowledge gained: 人体探险队

We can actually learn things from watching shows…like SJ’s人体探险队…an entertaining and educational show.

*Seeing SJ members laughing like mad makes me wanna breathe in that N2O gas too! At least, forgetting ur worries and laughters for that moment…*

*Laughing actually causes ur muscle to exert more strength, rather than when you’re simply exerting force using ur muscle (strength output less).*

Learned few methods to stop laughter…esp efficient for ppl like me who can’t stand itching.
1. Place a ball of 99.9% natural salt into the person’s (being itched) mouth. This method can work as long as the person feels the taste in his or her mouth. They will completely forget to laugh even when the itching’s going on.
2. While the person is laughing with the itching going on, pull the piece of flesh in between ur chin and neck OR the skin of both sides of ur neck (near chin). But I think this method only stops the laughter… cos I can see Dong Hae’s lower half of body still “wriggling” haha!
3. The person has to“大力吸”ur mouth…let ur 2 cheeks sink in…then u won’t laugh. But Eun Hyke say very difficult to control ur mouth muscle once u start laughing.
4. (100% work de method) Press either the阴骨(左膝盖后侧)and小晦(胳膊“月寸”[1 chi character]内侧顶端)a.k.a ur “arm joint”, ur laugher would immediately stop haha.


The host said in the Olden Roman times, there is a kind of punishment whereby a death penalty prisoner’s脚底is being continuously itched by a goat’s beard…until he or she laughs to death! OMG~ sounds funny…wonder how long it takes for a person to laugh to death ah? Kind of a torture oso ah…

Next episode was on the test of ur body balance. To know ur“平衡感年龄”, simply stand on a can (those kind of Dumex milk powder metal can), close ur eyes and rotate ur neck to turn ur heads…if u can turn 5 rounds an above while balancing on the can, ur“平衡感年龄”is 20yrs old, 4rounds is 30yrs old, 3 rounds 40 yrs old, 2 rounds 50yrs old and so forth. If u can’t even finish 1 round, means ur内耳三个半规管got serious prob.

Many like Ryeo Wook, Dong Hae and Ki Bum fell down after turning 2 rounds…but Han Kyung was superb la…he turned like 8 rounds without realising…then the host say ard 7,8 rounds means ur“平衡感年龄”is underage child de lvl haha!

*Si Won’s got a nickname “Ma(Horse) Si Won” cos his face shape very elongated lol.*

2nd method to test whether is ur sense of balance gd or nt, try kneeling on and balancing urself on a “balancing ball” (those use for yoga exercise blah)…if you can stay for more than 5secs with falling, u have a great sense of balance.

Then, they have a turning machine esp-made for SJ members. The members stand in the machine and it will turn 30rounds (fast!), after the turn they are supposed to walk straight got some distance and stand onto a round, uplifted platform and stand there on single leg for 3secs. However, none of the members succeeded…many东倒西歪LOL! Han Kyung was still posing to the cam when the machine’s spinning…so自恋…then for a short distance he walked still quite straight…but in the end still fell flat on the ground haha!

So, the show taught us 2 methods to control human’s dizziness after spinning.
1. Chew cuttlefish in ur mouth while spinning.
Shin Dong explain say u’ll still feel the giddiness, but u recover very fast.
2. Holding铝葙(nt sure if this word’s right) 纸in both ur hands while spinning.
Sung Min walked really straight lor!


A female ballet dancer actually could withstand 100 turns, followed by another 300turns in the machine lor! Superb sia… At 1st when she said she could stand 300 rounds, the host and whole of SJ were like: “Sure or not!?” kind of face…but she did it man! She said she used a method called “Spotting”…whereby u focus ur sight on 1 pt, as in when ur body is turning, u have to make sure u try to let ur eyes focus on 1 pt only. Haha… SJ members tried 50rounds whereby DH failed, yet Han Kyung and Siwon succeeded!
Well, even though Si Won said he felt like vomiting and his walk was a bit shaky haha.

*The female ballet dancer couldn’t take 15 rounds of “elephant turn” when she could tak that 300rounds of machine spin haha!*
