Did you know that your tongue can get really sticky when it touches something super cold, like an icicle or an ice cube? That's because the saliva on our tongues freezes and makes a strong connection. This can lead to funny accidents, especially in cold weather. A similar incident occurred recently in Russia when a dog got her tongue stuck to a frozen manhole cover after desperately licking it, but luckily, she was rescued.
