Facts:

Among the more popular toilet myths recommends that when toilets flush in the northern hemisphere, the water flows clockwise in the bowl while toilets in the southern hemisphere circulate counter-clockwise, apparently due to the Coriolis Effect triggered by the rotation of the Earth. This sounds fascinating, however it is not real. In fact, toilets flush the direction they do solely since of the maker's style. The Coriolis Effect is a real force but it does not impact toilets or sinks.
According to the World Toilet Organization, the typical person uses the toilet 6 to eight times a day or 2,500 times per year. That means three years of someone's life invested utilizing the toilet.
