Just like the title suggests, this week is a weird one. Researchers from the Institute of Human Anatomy​ want you to understand the toughness of the human eyeball. "I'm gonna stick to assuming that it's like a wad of pre-chewed and then hardened bubblegum -- or maybe like a hardboiled egg," says Gregr. But they did the research, and here are their findings.

"Regardless of the results, keep wearing your goggles when doing dangerous stuff because those peepers aren't indestructible. Now, I definitely couldn't watch it, because gross, but the evidence is on YouTube."

There’s a whole lot more beautiful nerdiness where this came from. Listen weekdays at noon on your favorite Audacy Alternative stations. Download the free app now to listen on the go!
