The 20 Greatest Historical Myths

'Humanities Talks' has a list of the 20 greatest historical myths. It's a nice list although not all of these claims are correct.

Newton was not hit by an apple, Walt Disney did not draw Mickey Mouse, Marie Antoinette never said 'Let them eat cake,' Captain Cook did not discover Australia, Thomas Edison did not invent the light bulb.

I'm afraid this is full of errors. But a fun read nonetheless.
