Why Do Our Fingers Get Wrinkly in Water? Science Is Cool
Wandering aimlessly around the internet today, I found an article on our fingers, and the wrinklyness we experience when we get into the water for a long time. Common "wisdom" makes us think that it's because we're swelling up after taking on water or something, or maybe the chemicals doing something to us. Seems like it would make sense, right? Nope. Not the reason at all.
