The longest-ever US presidential inauguration speech occurred on March 4, 1841, when William Henry Harrison delivered an 8445-word address despite terrible weather. His lengthy speech and the adverse conditions led to him contracting pneumonia, resulting in his death on April 4, making him the shortest-reigning US president.
The sole Japanese passenger on the Titanic, Masabumi Hosono, survived the disaster but faced criticism for not "dying honorably" with others.
During the era of American colonies, lobster was regarded as a humble and inexpensive food, typically reserved for prisoners and those in servitude, such as slaves.
In 1943, the USS O'Bannon encountered the Japanese submarine Ro-34. Initially planning to ram it, they changed course, fearing it might be a mine layer, bringing them very close to the Japanese sub. Unable to use their own guns, the O'Bannon's crew improvised by throwing potatoes. The Japanese crew, mistaking the potatoes for grenades, got distracted and didn't fire their deck cannon. This distraction allowed the O'Bannon to reposition and eventually open fire on the Japanese submarine.
