A slightly related, but true, biology fact is that all mammals (with the exception of sloths and manatees) have seven neck vertebrae. So, humans and giraffes actually have the same number of bones in their necks.

Yeah, I've heard that--in fact, I made the joke largely because I expect lots of people to mentally start saying, "well actually..." before getting to the punchline.
