DO you know the science behind a basic pinhole camera? Do you know that a small town in China meets 60 per cent of the world’s demand of buttons? Do you know that serious research is underway to modernise the bra? A brand-new 10-part, action-packed series I Didn’t Know That, every Friday at 7 P.M. on the National Geographic Channel exposes the little-known facts about ordinary items we take for granted. From airbags to teabags, toothpaste to tea, and condoms to crash helmets, each 30-minute episode is a mind-blowing cavalcade of crazy demonstrations and rarely-heard info about everyday stuff. It is being presented by Richard Ambrose and Jonny Phillips, two bona fide industrial scientists, and follow their quest to investigate how things are made, what’s inside them, how they are tested and how they work.
