Wool made Ferrari!

Here is a sports car you could pullover very smartly in a Ferrari knitted from WOOL. Art student Lauren Porter spent ten months making the full-size replica using 12 MILES of yarn. The car, a cross between a Testarossa and a 355, is made of more than 250 squares over a steel frame and the horse badge is hand-embroidered. Lauren, 22, who goes to Bath Spa University, said: “I get men admiring the racing lines and old women look at the needlework.”

Amazingly Weird Dish!

I thought eating scorpians and insects are weird but look at this. A crocodile head for a meal! Yucks!

This is called delicacy that was prepared during a Zhejiang gourmet competition. Although it looks scary, the Chinese believe that crocodile meat can be used to cure minor ailments such as cough, asthma, rheumatism and diabetes! This also proves a saying that Chinese typically eat anything ranging from those that crawl on ground to those that fly in the air.

Would you want to try it? Hehehe...

Weird Operation.

Caesarean. An alternative way to give birth other than natural birth but we all know that it has been used on humans. This one is on a turtle! Damn!

Keepers at Chengdu City Zoo sent the turtle, called Dabao, to hospital for an x-ray to find out why she was so lethargic, reports China Central Television.

The zoo sent the turtle to Chengdu 416 Hospital for a caesarean delivery, and doctors more used to human patients managed to improvise.

World's Biggest Cheese Burger!

Bob's BBQ & Grill of Pattaya, Thailand has smashed the current record for producing the world's biggest cheeseburger. The landmark in cheeseburger history was created in celebration of the king of Thailand's 60th year accession to the throne and was part of a wide range of events being held all year in Thailand to mark the occasion.

Measuring 60 CM (23.5 inches) in diameter and 35 CM (13.75 inches) in height, the burger has been named Big Bob's Texas Belt Buster and is on the regular menu and can be ordered 12 hours in advance.

The birth of the burger started off with a custom made bun made in Bob's in house bakery, and then 25 Kg (55.12 pounds) of Bob's top quality beef was cooked 6 ½ hours down to 20.4 Kg (45 pounds). No burger is complete with toppings and this burger was topped off with 2 large heads of lettuce, 15 tomato's, 4 large onions, 35 slices of cheese, 1 ½ cups of mustard, 1 cup of ketchup, 4 whole pickles, 4 whole Jalapeños. Once the official certification is received it will be added to the Guinness World records database under The World's Largest Commercially Available Hamburger.

What can I say? Yummy yum yum! Hahaha!!!

Cardboard Cop Car.

New Zealand has a witty and brilliant idea to slow down traffic efficiently. A cardboard cutout police car is slowing traffic at Nelson roadworks sites in an initiative that roading contractor Fulton Hogan hopes to push nationwide.

The cardboard cut out of a traffic police is used at Hira on and there was no doubt that it was more effective than speed restriction signs. It also reduced the number of cars travelling at over 60kmh from 21 out of 50 to five out of 50 and the average speed dropped 15kmh.

Interesting right?

The Beetle. A car designed for a historical powerful German man, has not died of age. Humans, with the greatest gift from God which is the Brain, have redesigned or recontruct the car as far as their imagination can bring them to. Amazing!!!

Best of Friends!

A snake called Aochan and a hamster have successfully archieve an unusual bond at a zoo in the Japanese capital, Tokyo. This amazingly odd relationship began in October 2005, when zookeepers offered the hamster to the snake as food during a routine feeding schedule.

The snake refused to eat the cute little hamster. The two now share a cage, and the hamster sometimes falls asleep sitting on top of its natural predator. The apparent friendship between the snake and hamster is one of many reported bonds between predator and prey.

Cyclop Baby.

This one-eyed child was brought to this planet Earth in early August, last year (2006) at the Kasturba Gandhi Hospital for Women and Children in Chennai, India. The baby girl was diagnosed with a rare chromosomal disorder known as cyclopia. Cyclopia mean that a child is born with a single eye in the center of her forehead without a nose and her brain is fused into a single hemisphere.

Cyclopean babies can barely survive more than a few hours under normal circumtances. This baby, whose mother was discharged from the hospital several days after giving birth, gets all of her nutrients through a feeding tube. It was anticipated that the mother was given an experimental anti-cancer drug.

Detached Skull and still alive!

Litters of people are rushing to a hospital in Kolkata India. Why? Apparently, to see a patient who had part of his skull detached. Severe burns caused a part of the skull to detach from the 25 year old electrician Sambhu Roy last Sunday. Goddess of Luck is on his side because the skull's inner covering and membrane which helps to produce bones was unaffected allowing fresh bone to grow.

He is alive and well. What about the detached skull? A good souvenir as a good luck charm perhaps.

A Bling-Bling Benz.

When you see a Ferrari F430 cruising by, you will go "Aweee!!!". When you see the Lamborghini Gallardo flying by, you go "WAAAAHH!!!". Then one day, you see this thing, sitting quietly by itself at the corner of the carpark. Wishing that it will not attract any attention but too bad the owner wants it. A Mercedes-Benz, totally covered in Diamonds! WOW!!! You will go like, "HOLY SHIT!!". Hahaha! Yes, that was my expression.

A Mercedes-Benz SL, totally covered with Diamonds. The ultimate Bling-Bling thing I have ever imagined. I only have one thing to say. This car has the ability to put all the other chrome covered cars to shame :P Hahaha!!!
