The Boy and the Python
Would make a nice book title wouldn’t it? Oeun Sambat is a six-year old boy from Cambodia, who has a very unusual best friend, a huge python called Chamerun (Lucky). If you ask me that should be the boy’s name, he’s lucky that thing hasn’t eaten him yet. Anyway he’s become really popular in the […]
The Giants of the North
Or Gigantes do Norte, in their native Portuguese tongue are a very…special soccer team What makes them so special is the fact that they are all vertically challenged people, playing against under-13 soccer teams in their native Brazilian town of Belem. What’s even more amazing is that they are attracting huge crowds at their matches, […]
Swamp Soccer
If you’re not one of those people who thinks soccer is for pussies, you’re going to love this. Believe it or not, this sport really exists, there are even organized championships in European countries like Finland and the United Kingdom. It originates from Finland, where it was first played by cross-country skiers who were training […]
Wacky Austrian museum
Ever been afraid that a house might fall on you and squash you? I know what it looks like, but no, that house did not just fall out of the sky. It’s an artistic project of sculptor Erwin Wurm and it was set up especially to look like a house just fell out of the […]
Matchsticks-made Minas Tirith
Who knew something made of matchsticks could be so impressive! Patrick Acton is an artist from Iowa and apparently a big fan of The Lord of The Rings universe, who uses matchsticks to create his masterpieces. What you see in these photos is just a work in progress, an incomplete model of Minas Tirith, the […]
Retro laptop
I’d love to get this thing as a birthday present. This cool music-box looking thing is Datamancer’s Steampunk laptop. Don’t be fooled by its retro look, there’s a perfect running HP ZT1000 laptop, underneath all that wood and metal gears, it’s even capable of running both Windows and Linux. But nobody really cares about how […]
World’s smallest girl
She may be little but I’m sure she has a great spirit! This it Jyoti Amge, a 15 year old girl from India, that’s about the size of your typical 3 year old. Jyoti suffers from a form of dwarfism called achondroplasia which prevents her body from fully developing; doctors say she’s going to look […]
Japanese Rock’n-Rollers
Here’s what watching movies like Grease too many times can do to a man. I haven’t been able to dig up too much on these silly looking guys, I just know they are some kind of entertainers in Yoyogi Park, Harajuku in Japan. Please, if you know more, don’t hesitate to let everybody know through […]
Real elf ears
How far would you go just to look as your favorite fantasy creature? Well I don’t know if this lady is a big World of Warcraft fan or not, but she definitely has a thing for elves and especially their pointy ears. She even went ahead and surgically modified them just so she could look […]
Not your usual children’s camp
Welcome to Stavropol children’s military camp, where Russian kids lose…no not their virginity you pervert, their childhood! As the title suggests, this is not your typical summer camp, where people play games, have fun and learn cool stuff, this is the army baby, the Russian army. About 40 children, between 12 and 17 years old […]
Cool PC command stations
I didn’t know what else to call these babies and I thought the kinda looked like command stations. I’d be willing to bet the farm that the people who built these bad boys only did it so they can prove they could and to show them off. I mean I can’t imagine what you could […]
Incredible soap art
Who says soap can only be used for cleansing? As you can see it makes for great material when you have an artistic sense. Some of you may not be impressed by all these pieces, but I for one never looked at soap as anything but something to help me get squeaky clean, so I’m […]
Great use of a used plane
This is El Avion, a famous plane now turned into a bar. El Avion is a model C-123 Fairchild and it can be found in Costa Rica and it has quite an unusual story. I for one really didn’t get much of it, but the bottom line is that it was abandoned by the USA […]
Oddest anti car theft measures
No one wants to have their car stolen but still, this is a little over the top. I wonder if any of these guys ever heard of car alarms. But then again who knows what neighborhood they live in, maybe a car alarm is useless. Stil, although I admire them for having a rich imagination, […]
This haircut is smoking!
And no, that’s not slang for cool. I’ve heard about this technique a few years ago, back then it was the hottest thing in hairstyle, all the stars were lining up to try these new technique. I see that now it’s not as exclusive as it once was (those guys don’t look like stars to […]
