Animal Cruelty at its Finest
Please note, we do not actually condone animal cruelty. Is this cruelty, or should the donkey be happy to have got some free air time? Either way, this is certainly one of the strangest ever advertising campaigns. It certainly gets people talking.
In a bid to attract more customers, this beachside paragliding group in Russia flew a donkey along a beach for over half an hour in a bid to attract more customers. This tops the last beach side advertising I saw, where sky writers continuously spray “jesus saves” over beaches in Florida.
Boy Wears 215 Pairs of Underwear
What did you do for your 10th birthday? Presumably something so rubbish you don’t remember. Well this kid ain’t going to forget his 10th birthday in a hurry. The family from New York (only in America) decided to spend his Birthday trying to break a world record, with underwear.
Yes this boys parents decided that this small, child was ready to get his name in the record book, for wearing the most pairs of underwear at one time. The Previous record stood at 200. This was not going to be easy. In fact if you watch the video below it actually begins to look cruel towards the end, as the weight becomes too strong for him to stand.
But like a true record breaker he battles through, to make a memorable birthday with a crowing achievement of achieving a new world record for most pairs of underpants wore by a person now standing at 215. What a career this boy has ahead for him.
Car Hire Boss Jailed in Scam
It’s not uncommon to hear about royalty in the developing world trying to scam you with money. Well obviously not the actual royal family but usually some guy that found a computer trying to convince you that he is a Nigerian prince that simply wants to share his millions with you, requesting your bank details to do so.
But it is a scam not usually taken up by those who are already rich. The Boss of a prestige car hire company has been caught pretending to be part of the Kuwaiti royal family in an effort to scam more than half a million pounds from unsuspecting victims.
Koroush Pour is not a poor man. He hired his Bugatti Veyron, a Million pound super-car, to the BBC to make some of the most memorable episodes of Top Gear. He has been caught using his car hire firm Swift Hire to steal credit using his customers personal details and sold cars which still had hundreds of thousands of pounds in outstanding finance.
To top it off, he scammed two retired nurses out of their pension funds of over £120,000. He abused their plans to retire in Spain, claiming he could get them a better exchange rate threw his car hire company.
The judge told Pour: “You have not only probably brought shame on your self and your family, but you reduced your own circumstances to one where you are quite unable to live the lavish lifestyle I’m told you were living.” He was sentenced to two years in jail.
Man Survives Flight to London in Undercarriage
A man is lucky to be alive after secretly boarding a flight to London and hiding in the undercarriage. The man survived a flight over the Alps inside the undercarriage of a jumbo jet owned by a prominent Arab sheikh.
The Romanian man was extremely lucky to have survived being exposed to temperatures as low as -41C. The flight to London from Vienna in Austria lasted only 1 hour and 40 minutes, which the man spent entirely inside the wheel compartment. The plane was privately owned by Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, the ruler of Dubai and prime minister of the United Arab Emirates.
The stowaway, a 20 year old Romanian man, did not know where he would end up when boarding the plane. Unfortunately for him he ended up in London, England – a country part of the European Union that he could have entered legally. Though, to be fair, he was luck it was not a long haul flight or he surely would have succumbed to the harsh conditions in the undercarriage.
Virtual Furniture Thefts on the Rise
Yes that right, you heard me. Police in Finland are actually looking into the theft of virtual furniture from social networking site Habbo Hotel. Ironically they could face real life consequences if police find the virtual thieves.
Reports claim around 400 users of the Habbo Hotel virtual hotel have had ‘Significant amounts of virtual property’ stolen, which they have purchased with actual real life money. I hope it wasn’t as expensive as real world furniture. Losers, sorry, Users of the site can create a character for themselves to hang out and chat with friends, take care of virtual pets and furnish their own rooms buy actually paying with real money.
The virtual thieves are thought to have used hoax web pages to acquire user names and passwords. They then signed in under the stolen users details and shifted paid for items such as the furniture to other accounts. Police have already searched homes in 5 Finnish cities (real life homes I presume), confiscating computers and interrogating the occupants. The value of the stolen items has not been defined, but for some users it is thought to be “Significant”.
C-String: Lingerie Genius or Pointless Product?
It’s pretty hard to invent something new for clothing. It has always been around and always will be. Never the less, it doesn’t stop some people from trying. Especial in the field of underwear and lingerie. Introducing the C-String:
Now, I am a man, and I have to just say WTF? I don’t actually have a vagina but I can’t imagine this thing would be comfortable. Is it creative? Or did someone just make a nylon shoe horn and call it lingerie? Again from a mans point of view, it isn’t even sexy. Having seen one on a lady, it might as well not even be there.
But don’t just take my word for it. Listen to actual lady people talk about it:
So if you quite fancy the idea of wedging a shoe horn in your crotch then this is definitely the thing for you. If not then perhaps more conventional lingerie is the thing for you. Or Y-fronts.
