That's How It Happened

My friend OG is struggling to find 15 facts about the number 15 for a design project. He came up with these:

15 is the atomic number of phosphorus

15 is the number of letters in 'uncopyrightable' (longest word with no
repeating letters)

X15 is a rocket plane used for training astronauts

15 grams is the world's largest collection of navel fluff.

15 seconds is the length of time a human head remains conscious for after
decapitation.

Annually, an Australian eats 15 kg of bananas.

The hog-nosed skunk can spray up to fifteen feet.

My suggestions are wordier, but no less interesting:

The 15 certificate was introduced on November 1st 1982. That is the same day as the Mexican Day of the Dead. Ironically although Sam Raimi's Evil Dead was being considered for a rating by the BBFC at that time, they banned it instead, until 1990.

15 facts about Chuck Norris is the most popular email in the history of the internet. The 15th fact about Chuck Norris:
"CHUCK NORRIS died 10 years ago, but Death is too afraid to tell that to CHUCK NORRIS."

When you cannot count to 15 before thunder is heard, the last lightning bolt struck less than 3 miles away. At this point you should definitely consider seeking shelter.

And my favourite:
Takeru Kobayashi, the world's greatest competitive eater holds the world record for eating cow brains: 57 (17.7 pounds) in 15 minutes

Any other suggestions?
