It’s taken the internet by storm!
We love anything weird and wonderful to distract us from our post Bank Holiday blues here at Her Towers and this revelation about the map of the Americas has done just that.

A lot of users have been commenting in surprise, wondering how they’ve never spotted this before, while others have pointed out that it’s more to do with the scale of the map than anything else.
Either way, it’s our interesting fact of the day.
So there you have it ladies and gents – a random, but quite fascinating piece of useless information for you.
