Cats are great climbers, that’s not a big secret, but a cat climbing up a 13-foot dry wall? Now that’s something you don’t see every day. Charlie is a very special seven-year-old cat from Falkirk, Britain, who has the very special skill of climbing buildings. As you’ve probably guessed, this is the talent that got him the very cool nick-name Spider-cat. Charlie began climbing up to his owner’s flat, on the first floor of an apartment-building, after he got bored of waiting for someone to open the front door of the building, after his daily walk around the bloc. One day he just went to the back of his owner’s home, took a long look at the obstacle in front of him and just jumped up the wall. Using his front paws for grip and his behind paws for leverage, he made it up to the first floor and started miaowing until someone opened the door for him. Since that faithful day, Charlie the Spider-cat has been climbing up the dry-wall on a regular basis. Check out the incredible video of Charlie doing what he does best, after the photos.

Created by Korean artist JooYoun Paek, the self-sustainable chair is a polyethylene-made dress, connected to a pair of special pair of shoes that pump air into the dress, with every step you take. After a short walk, the dress inflates in the back forming a nice “little” chair that makes it possible for you to stop, sit on it and rest for a bit. Depending on the wearer’s weight, the dress deflates allowing him to carry on with his walk. The self-sustainable dress is an artistic concept that “motivates people to switch between walking and sitting  as a loop behavior on the street”. One couldn’t actually use the self-sustainable chair on a day-to-day basis, it makes you look like you just arrived from another planet. Here’s a test-drive of the self-sustainable chair in New York:

Here’s a collection of abnormally large vegetables, a real treat if you’re into them, but for a hardcore carnivore like myself those things are freakin’ scary! Well I guess it would be nice to have them grow like this on a regular basis, they’d help solve the world hunger issue.

About Oddity Central Oddity Central is all about the oddities of our world. If you’re looking for bizarre events, unique travel destinations, weird inventions, freaky characters or odd art, you’ll most likely find here. Simply put, Oddity Central is a collection of oddities gathered from all around the world. With all the weird stuff happening on a daily basis, it’s hard to keep up, so if you find something you think deserves a place among the oddities on this site, get in touch and share it with the rest of us bizarre lovers. About Spooky Real name is Florin, but since I’ve used this nickname since the first time I’ve ever created an online profile and it fit the topic of my blog, I thought I’d use it instead. What can I say about myself? I’m just your average 25-year-old, living in Eastern Europe (Romania). I’ve been blogging since 2007, about various topics, like video games, cars, travel destinations, but it wasn’t until early 2008, when I started Oddity Central, that I truly found something I actually liked writing about. Since then, I’ve become an oddities-freak, always searching for something cool to share with you guys. I know my grammar and spelling aren’t always perfect, but most times I post on the run, without proof reading my articles. I’m really sorry about that, it’s not that I’m retarded (yeah, I’ve been called that), but this is just a hobby and I have to focus the largest part of my time on important stuff like my job, my friends and…what’s the other one again? Oh yeah, my family
