Surely they'd overheat, but then perhaps they're air cooled like a VW Beetle, they have extra large nostrils to facilitate air cooling, or a radiator mounted on their chest. Sorry talking gibberish and my guess will be worse no doubt.
What is my guess to be?
They cannot see in colour.

I have no idea, but I'm guessing it's to do with immunity to a certain disease/skin cancer?

Is it being scared of heights or is this an urban myth ?

My answer would have read;
American Indians have a gene which prevents them from ….going bald.
However after writing the question I realised that it is not strictly true. It is that the gene that causes baldness is not present in native Americans.
Maybe Thumper can carry this on as he did make reference to hair, which was why I thought it funny. Not to be patronising of course.

the first CD i got was brothers in arms if 999,999 others did to it could be a good guess.

Jeeze I'm bad...I don't even know how long CDs were in proper mass production as opposed to getting vinyl, but I will go with
Candle in the Wind/How you look tonight

Istenem has it. It was indeed Brothers in arms by Dire Straits in 1985.
