(Our happy hour fact to amaze your drinking buddies with.)

U.S. paper money contains higher trace levels of cocaine than any other world currency.

Chemists found that the average U.S. bill has between 2.9 and 28.8 micrograms of cocaine on its surface. Meanwhile, the study showed that Spanish money has the highest trace amounts among European nations.

This doesn't mean the average bill was handled by a cocaine user. Traces of the drug can spread easily from bill to bill in devices like ATMs and bank counting machines. However, the numbers do suggest that Americans love cocaine.

So, if you're scoring at home, fill in the U.S. for both the fattest and the most coked up nation on Earth. Given coke's appetite-suppressing qualities, it sounds as though we're just not getting enough cocaine to the right people.

By the way, OD'ing on cocaine does not qualify as an interesting way to die. Check out some crazy ways people actually kicked after the jump.
