So recently in my developmental anatomy course I came upon and amazing party fact.
We can poop out our belly button?!?!
if by chance we are born with a persistent vitellointestinal duct we have a direct hole from our ileum to the belly button and can poo out of it. What is more weird is that half of our digestive tract was once living outside of our body via the umbilicus and that eventually it gets sucked back in before we are born. (gut development)
sometimes it is easier not knowing these things....
especially the fact that you can vomit feces as well (just like south park!?!)
