Teeth paintings
Don’t you love to see original art? And painting on teeth is pretty original, even if some may find them a bit disturbing. I have to say I’m pretty scared of the dentist, but if I ever have a tooth removed this is definitely what I want to do with it, turn something painful into […]

But […]
The Skeleton Bar
I bet you feel like you’re having a drink in a bar built by the Alien. And in a way, you kind of are, because this odd-looking establishment was designed by Hans Rudi Giger (HR Giger), who worked as a designer on the Alien movies, receiving multiple awards, including an OSCAR for best special effects.

Fencing never gets old
It never struck me like a sport for senior citizens but… Apparently old people love it! at least the ones at Corpus Christi Catholic Home for retired priest and nuns in Melbourne, Australia, do. The over 80 years old athletes have been learning the art of fencing for nine months now, and apparently they are […]
Piercing necklace
I bet that didn’t hurt a bit… Well let’s look at the bright side, at least no one is going to be able to grab it and steal it away, right. But seriously now, I don’t even want to imagine the kind of pain this dude suffered just to have his neck look like somebody […]
Erotic pasta
I can’t imagine why you’d want to eat something like this. Sex sells, that we all know, but this is stretching it a little, if you ask me. I stumbled across these photos during one of my frequent web-surfing session and I thought they fit perfectly here. I sincerely wonder if anyone actually eats these […]
World’s biggest bra
What cup-size would you say that is? You’d probably need a lot more letters in the alfabet to come up with the right answer, because that’s one big bra. I haven’t been able to find much info on it but it could have been created by someone who wanted to show his passion for women’s […]

How would you feel swimming next to one of these things on your holiday? Echizen kurage, as the Japanese call them, are giant jellyfish, over 2 meters in diameter and 200 kg in weight, swimming in the waters of Japan, China and Korea and disturbing their activities. The presence of these giant blobs seriously affected […]
China’s secret training methods
Painful but efficient. I have to say these Chinese have a rich imagination, the needle technique to force soldiers keep their chin up is taken out of some kind of fairytale and the cross stuck to their backs…must be really uncomfortable at first but I bet it pays of in the end. Sure some may […]

This guy makes a horse feel like a dwarf. Chilli is a black and white Fresian bull, weighing a whopping 1.25 tons and standing at 6 feet and 6 inches in height. Abandoned by its owner on the doorstep of the sanctuary he lives in today, when he was just 6 days old, back in […]
