We did this once before. A thread for trivia that isn't even useful for obscure pub quiz questions.

Here's one to start it off again

There are 27 people in Salford with the surname REBENWURZEL.

Beavers used to be sought for their testicles - it was believed they held some sort of medicinal value. So the folklore that arose from that, was that when hunters were out hunting beavers, they'd bite off their own testicles, then rear up and reveal their testicle-less crotches to the hunters so they'd let them go.
