Baby Jumping Festival.. WTF Is This ?

A MAN dressed up as the devil jumps over babies lying on the street to mark the Corpus Christi feast in Spain.

A man dressed up as the devil jumps over babies lying on a mattress in the street during the 'El Salto del Colacho' (the jump of the devil)

The festival has taken place on an annual basis since the 1620's.

It marks the Corpus Christi feast in Castrillo de Murcia, near Burgos, Spain.

The jump is meant to cleanse the babies of all evil doings. Damn!! Superstitions.

It is the only baby jumping festival in the world.

Anyone with a newborn baby can bring them to this festival. It is a fun, yet scary to watch, event.

The Best Nonsense Money Can Buy !

BIZZARE TREAT : The weirdest gift guide in the world - find a strange treat or odd present!
The best nonsense money can buy!

Self potrait Doll

Price : £123

Have a ‘Mini Me’ action figure made of yourself! We got one done for Bizarre art director Dave Kelsall, but he insisted on pulling kooky cross-eyed faces in the photos we sent to the sculptor, so his doll looks 82 per cent Dave, 18 per cent Sloth from The Goonies. “Hey, You Guuuys!”

Metallica Lullaby CD

Price : £12.95

The sky is beginning to ‘Fade To Black’, but getting your baby to sleep is like ‘Pulling Teeth’. Stick on this CD of Metallica tracks played on bells and harps, and ta-da! ‘Enter Sandman’.

Knuckleduster Mug

Price : £11.99

When it’s brass monkeys outside you’ll be glad of a warming brew from this cup, with its handle shaped like brass knuckles. Alternatively, you could fill it with punch.


Kate Bush T-shirt

Price : £19.99

The Mighty Bush was years ahead of her time. If only she’d been US president instead of that other Bush, the last eight years could have been more ‘Wuthering Heights’ and less ‘blathering shite’.

Ben Westwood Lunch Box

Price : £24.99

A saucy sarnie holder decorated with sordid snaps by designer Vivienne’s erotic photographer son. Bizarre suggests you pack a couple of phallic veggies and a nicely tossed salad.

Barbed Wire Leather Rose

Price : £24.95

Got a fetish for the aroma of leather, but find it hard to explain why you keep getting caught sniffing driving gloves in Halfords? It’s totally acceptable to smell flowers,
so buy this cow-skin rose and inhale away. Just be careful with those spikes.


God Lager

Price : £1.49

This divine dark Swedish beer is the perfect tipple for hungover dyslexics who need “hair
of the god”. When they remember that, after downing seven of these the night before, they dry-humped a bollard, then pissed in the fridge, remind them God works in mysterious ways.

The Amazing Real Life Spider-Man ..Is It A Fake ??!

Hanging on ... the incredible Spider-Man’s skills

REAL life Spider-Man Jyothi Raj has the amazing ability of being able to stick to a wall — UPSIDE DOWN.
The daredevil climber is a hero in India wowing crowds by scaling heights of up to 300ft without a harness.

Wowing the crowds ... climber Jyothi Raj

Tourists flock to see the former construction worker's death-defying feats at the Chitradurga Fort in Karnataka, in the west of the country.

The 22-year-old discovered his climbing ability four years ago working on one of the county's notoriously dangerous building sites.

Standing out ... real life Spidey in action

Agility

And after teaching himself by watching monkeys climb trees, Jyothi has enhanced his dazzling agility using stunts from his favourite films.

He even copies some of Spider-Man's best moves, hanging upside down and jutting out at a 90 degree angle.

Jyothi said: "I began to climb for fun at the weekends and came to the famous fort here at Chitradurga to entertain the crowds, especially on Sundays.

"I love to see their faces when I position myself upside down and hear them holding their breath for my safety.

"My ability to see the foothold that others can't is proof to me that I was born to climb.

"My strength and hand speed are the tools that set me apart from other climbers."

He added: "These climbs go up to 300ft.

"They are physically testing and dangerous, but I want to move on and climb buildings and mountains."

Psychiatric Kid - A Boy Drilled His Skull Saved By Doctor

He had the knowledge to recognise that the young boy was about to die from a blood clot on the brain.

But Dr Rob Carson knew he didn't have the right tools to deal with the emergency.

Unless you count that drill in the hospital maintenance cupboard, of course.

With Nicholas Rossi's life hanging in the balance, this was a time for desperate measures.

Recovering: Experts say Nicholas Rossi would have died, had Dr Rob Carson drilled through his skull with a drill from the hospital maintenance cupboard

And within minutes the doctor was using the handyman's De Walt cordless to bore into Nicholas's skull to relieve the pressure on his brain.

Last night experts agreed that the operation undoubtedly saved the child's life.

'There were only minutes to spare,' Dr Carson revealed, as he told of the drama yesterday. 

Relief: Nicholas with his parents Karen and Michael Rossi who can't praise Dr Carson enough for his quick-thinking actions

Nicholas had been brought to him after falling off his bike near home. 

The 12-year-old had knocked himself out briefly after hitting his head on a kerb but then began complaining of a headache.

His mother Karen, a trained nurse, drove him to the local hospital in the small Australian town of Maryborough, in Victoria, where Dr Carson was on duty.

Nicholas was kept under observation but after an hour he began to pass in and out of consciousness, and then went into spasms.

Dr Carson recognised this as a sign of internal bleeding in the skull, the result being pressure on the brain. 

It was the same fatal condition that claimed the life of actress Natasha Richardson after a skiing accident in March.

Because the small hospital was not equipped with neurological drills, Dr Carson needed to think on his feet. 

He raced to the maintenance room and found the drill which handymen usually used for drilling holes in wood.

Before he went further, he telephoned a leading neurosurgeon in Melbourne, Mr David Wallace, and asked for his assistance in talking him through the procedure, which he had never carried out before, even under hospital conditions. 


Nicholas's father Michael Rossi said: 'Dr Carson came over to us and said "I am going to have to drill into Nicholas to relieve the pressure on the brain. We've only got one shot at this and one shot only".

'Dr Carson told me all he can remember saying is: "Get the Black and Decker".

'He drilled into my son's head and we heard the suction.' 

Anaesthetist Dr David Tynan, who assisted Dr Carson, said the operation took just over a minute: 'It was pretty scary.

'You obviously worry, are you pushing hard enough or pushing too hard, but then when some blood came out after we'd gone through the skull, we realised we'd made the right decision.'

It was then decided Nicholas was stable enough to be sent by helicopter to Melbourne's Royal Children's Hospital. 

It was learned later that Nicholas had fractured his skull and torn a small artery between the bone and the brain just above his ear.

Dr Carson remained modest amid the praise from Nicholas's family. 

'You just do those things,' he said. 'It's not a personal achievement. It's just part of the job. I had a very good team of people helping me.'

10 Best April Fool's Hoaxes

1. In 1957 the BBC's Panorama news programme announced that due to a very mild winter and the virtual elimination of the spaghetti weevil, Swiss farmers were enjoying a bumper spaghetti crop. It accompanied this announcement with footage of Swiss peasants pulling strands of spaghetti down from trees. Huge numbers of viewers were taken in and many called the BBC asking how they could grow their own spaghetti tree.

2. In 1977 The Guardian newspaper published a special seven-page supplement devoted to San Serriffe, a small republic said to consist of several semi-colon-shaped islands located in the Indian Ocean. A series of articles described the geography and culture of the fictional nation, prompting hundreds of calls from readers seeking information about the idyllic holiday destination.

3. In 1980 the BBC reported that Big Ben was to be given a digital readout, in order to keep up with the times. The announcement received a huge response from listeners shocked and angered by the proposed change.

4. In 1989 Richard Branson, the entrepreneur, landed a hot-air balloon on the outskirts of London, which had been made up to look like a flying saucer. Thousands of motorists reported seeing the supposed UFO causing police to rush to the scene only to discover that it was an elaborate hoax devised by the businessman to promote Virgin Records.

5. Last year, the BBC announced that it had captured footage of flying Adélie penguins, while filming near the Antarctic for its natural history series Miracles of Evolution. The report was accompanied by a video clip of the hoax creatures, which became one of the most viewed videos on the internet. Presenter Terry Jones explained that, instead of huddling together to endure the Antarctic winter, these penguins took to the air and flew thousands of miles to the rainforests of South America where they "spend the winter basking in the tropical sun".

6. In 1998 the fast-food chain Burger King published a full-page advertisement in USA Today announcing the introduction of a "Left-Handed Whopper" specially designed for the 32 million left-handed Americans. According to the advertisement, the new Whopper included the same ingredients as the original Whopper, but that they were rotated 180 degrees for the benefit of their left-handed customers. It was reported that thousands of customers fell for the prank and began specifying left or right hand versions of the burger when visiting its restaurants.

7. In 1986 thousands of French citizens were outraged after The Parisien reported that an agreement had been signed to dismantle the Eiffel Tower and have it reconstructed in the Euro Disney theme park.

8. In 2004, the BBC Radio 4's Today programme announced that the traditional theme tune to The Archers was to be scrapped in favour of a new electronic version by Brian Eno.

9. In 1976, Patrick Moore told Radio 2 listeners that, at precisely 9.47am that day, an unusual alignment of the planets would lessen the Earth's gravitational pull, so that anyone who jumped in the air would feel a strange floating sensation. Hundreds phoned in to say they had experienced the phenomenon.

10. In 1994, BMW continued its tradition of running hoax adverts on April Fool's by touting the latest advancement for its cars – pivoting convex lasers mounted in front of each wheel to melt ice and snow on the road.
