5: originally? None. They say there were no stars or planets. Also time and space came to be afterwards.

Edit: I just read the explainxkcd, I get it now. :)

  1. Don Majkowski threw a game winning touchdown pass to Sterling Sharpe in 1989 but the points were taken away as an illegal forward pass penalty, until later they saw the replay footage and awarded the points post game.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instant_Replay_Game There were 37 seconds left when it was overturned--not post game.

FiniteBanjo ,

32 seconds, actually. They must have paused the game timer during the four minute deliberation, drat! If we could find a single example of results being overturned outside of a game then that would satisfy the question.

idk man, seems pretty straightforward to me

Lennon "was the soul of the Beatles, Harrison was the spirit." Martin said. "Paul was the heart, and Ringo was the drummer." Ringo: he was the drummer

"Is Ringo the best drummer in the world?"

"Ringo isn't even the best drummer in the Beatles"- The Beatles

If your fact checker is caught stealing by Buzzfeed: https://www.nytimes.com/2021/08/13/business/media/snopes-plagiarism-David-Mikkelson.html

And considered unreliable by among others Harvard: https://misinforeview.hks.harvard.edu/article/fact-checking-fact-checkers-a-data-driven-approach/

You might want to double check. I didn't. I just want to caution people about blindly trusting Snopes. So they might very well be right on this topic.

I mean... Snopes warns against blindly trusting Snopes. (After reading, make sure to click on "Additional Information" at the bottom.

I've heard from multiple sources (all dubious) that Ringo was the adhesive that held the band together during contentious times. Usually that role is appointed to the heart but in this case it was appointed to the Ringo. The drummer.
