When we use an everyday item, we don’t think about what’s inside of it, or what its interior makeup is like. Usually, it’s nothing more than a few wires and batteries. But, sometimes, the inside of everyday objects contain more secrets than we thought, such as the inside of a gas pump, Rubik’s Cube, pregnancy test, or lightbulb. <\/span><\/p>\n

These items range from useless items<\/a> to items we need in our day-to-day lives. Thanks to various users on the internet<\/a>, these interesting secrets inside things we use every day have been revealed. <\/span><\/p>\n

30) Rubik’s Cube <\/span><\/h2>\n

Rubik’s Cubes are already confusing enough. And now that we’ve seen the inside of a Rubik’s Cube, we have more questions than before. Still, it’s pretty cool to see how a Rubik’s Cube operates inside, even though it probably won’t give us any insight on how to master the Rubik’s Cube. Nonetheless, it’s still pretty interesting to learn about the inside of the Rubik’s Cube (via <\/span>gumbl3g33<\/span><\/a>). <\/span><\/p>\n

29) USB Drive <\/span><\/h2>\n

Honestly, this is probably what we’ve all expected the inside of a USB Drive to look like, even though how all of that data is stored on such a tiny space remains a mystery (via <\/span>Get_Clowned_on<\/span><\/a>). <\/span><\/p>\n

28) Fresh Lotus Pod <\/span><\/h2>\n

In Asian religion, a lotus symbolizes purity and non-attachment. On the outside, it’s beautiful<\/a>. But have you ever thought about its interior makeup? The inside of a lotus is remarkable, even if it might activate some of our trypophobia. Still, this is an interesting secret to learn about a lotus pod (via <\/span>psychnerd27<\/span><\/a>). <\/span><\/p>\n

27) Tiny Nail Thumbtack <\/span><\/h2>\n

It may come as a surprise to most of us that the inside of a thumbtack is, in fact, a tiny nail. For some reason, we might’ve all expected it to be something different, but this makes the most sense. Now we know the interesting secrets of tiny nail thumbtacks (via <\/span>Accetable_Web_5829<\/span><\/a>). <\/span><\/p>\n

26) Gas Pump <\/span><\/h2>\n

To most of us, gas pumps are just a place to fill our cars<\/a> with fuel. But the mechanics behind gas pumps are pretty spectacular when you take a close look, and it’s an interesting secret to learn. Honestly, though, the best part about this photo is the Croissant sign above the gas pump (via<\/span> PostMaStoned<\/span><\/a>). <\/span><\/p>\n

25) Escalator <\/span><\/h2>\n

“I saw an escalator being built today and the inside was not what I expected at all.” – via <\/span>Blink1Whitey2<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

Escalators can already induce fear in some, but now this fear is validated. Escalators seem even more complicated than before, now that we see what the inside looks like. We can all probably agree that we’ll stick to riding them up and down, instead of trying to figure out their interior makeup. <\/span><\/p>\n

23) Fire Hydrant <\/span><\/h2>\n

There’s way more to a fire hydrant than meets the eye. We can assume that, because of their power, there needs to be some sort of mechanical science behind it. We might’ve even thought the inside would be more complicated, after noticing how simple it looks. Even so, it’s an interesting secret to learn (via <\/span>HeartacheHouston<\/span><\/a>). <\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

22) Breast Implants<\/span><\/h2>\n

This is probably not what any of us expected. The inside of a breast implant looks like something you would play with during the summer in the pool as a kid. They look simple, but knowing their purpose makes them that much more interesting (via <\/span>YouTube<\/span><\/a>).<\/span><\/p>\n

21) Etch a Sketch <\/span><\/h2>\n

We can safely assume that none of us expected this, so it makes it an interesting secret to learn. It looks like the needle moves around as a cross to create the drawing. Pretty cool stuff!<\/span><\/p>\n

“What is inside of a mango seed. I left it on my neighbor’s doormat.” via <\/span>Enhancing_Guru<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

Firstly, we’re probably all wondering why this Reddit user left the mango seed on their neighbor’s doormat, but that’s another mystery for another time. We’ve all eaten mangoes, and after seeing this photo, it may even put us off from eating them, ever again. After learning this interesting secret, we can agree that the inside of a mango seed looks like a shriveled bean. <\/span><\/p>\n

This is an interesting secret to learn about McDonald’s and get the inside scoop to how the very popular chain restaurant operates (via <\/span>uneasythinking<\/span><\/a>). <\/span><\/p>\n

We’ve all eaten at least an egg or two throughout our lives, probably way more. But to see an egg without a shell is an interesting secret to see (via <\/span>scathing<\/span><\/a>). <\/span><\/p>\n

“My friend’s sewing machine broke, so she took it apart and fixed it. Fortunately she snapped this awesome cutaway image in the process.” via <\/span>nater255<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

This is pretty awesome, to say the least. To us, a sewing machine is nothing<\/a> more than a needle and thread, but the inside of one is pretty intricate. There’s a lot more to it than meets the eye. <\/span><\/p>\n

15) Measuring Tape<\/span><\/h2>\n

“Insides of a measuring tape. I imagined the metal coil as a normal thin spring, but it’s a big wide metal coil that is very rigid. The metal comes out of the beige roller and attaches to the yellow measuring tape and creates the whole self winding tension, along with the concave shape of tape.” via <\/span>pyjamaman12<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

This is quite<\/a> intricate. We can all relate to this Reddit user, who was shocked when they found<\/a> out what was inside a measuring tape. <\/span><\/p>\n

“Inside an expensive digital pregnancy test there is an ordinary cheap pregnancy test.” “The electronic device just picks up the number of lines and shows the result on the display.” – via <\/span>YouTube<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

We’ve been duped! Expensive pregnancy tests are nothing more than cheap<\/a> pregnancy tests placed inside an electronic device. We can thank this Reddit user for revealing this interesting secret, who has now helped a lot of women reading this list to save a lot of money<\/a>. Next time, stick to the simple pregnancy tests. What a scam.<\/span><\/p>\n

10) Removable Dentures<\/span><\/h2>\n

We’ve all met an elderly person with dentures. Have you ever considered what the insides of them looked like? Probably not, and it’s something we could’ve gone the rest of our lives without seeing. Nonetheless, this interesting secret of the inside of removable dentures has now been revealed, and there’s no going back (via <\/span>JunioR0907<\/span><\/a>). <\/span><\/p>\n

7) Fast Food Soda Fountain <\/span><\/h2>\n

This reveal might deter us from ever drinking from a fast food<\/a> soda fountain again. Knowing that the soda comes from these cardboard boxes isn’t very appealing, and makes them seem even more horrible for you (via <\/span>trashd0gs<\/span><\/a>). <\/span><\/p>\n

“Most people<\/a> think that garbage disposals have sharp spinning blades inside of them. This is actually what is grinding up the food in your disposal.” – via <\/span>OwlThief32<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

It turns out that there aren’t sharp spinning blades inside garbage disposals. That’s pretty shocking, to say the least! <\/span><\/p>\n

“This is what is inside those things which you smack on your arm then it turns into a wrist band” – via <\/span>Massive_Calendar<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

We’ve all been duped again! If you never opened your snap bracelet as a child, then you never would’ve realized what’s inside of them – a simple measuring tape. It’s pretty funny once we realize what’s inside. We can thank this Reddit user for shedding light on this interesting secret. <\/span><\/p>\n

2) Barbecue Lighter <\/span><\/h2>\n
