Triskaidekaphobia - the fear of the number 13, but you knew that already!(fear of Friday the 13th is Friggatriskaidekaphobia or paraskavedekatriaphobia)
Allegedly there are fewer accidents on a Friday the 13th - one theory is coz everyone is too terryfied to venture out on that day. Weird!!
Some other number facts that I have picked up
-40 is the same in celsius and fahrenheit (and also bloody cold)
496 is a perfect number (my brain melted when I tried to research what a perfect number is)
666 is the human number associated with the beast according to the bible (incedentally the fear of this number is the tongue-destroying hexakosioihexekontahexaphobia! Catchy!)
