An eyewitness says: At 5AM we were roused by someone shouting CALL POLICE! Looked out the window and saw a man in the street, looking up at the 3d story roof of the office building across the way. Then saw a man -- the cat burglar -- falling down the side when the wire he was shinning down snapped. The man broke or sprained his foot and crawled across the street, screaming into his phone for the getaway. My phone had crashed, so Alice grabbed hers to call police, while I got pics. The guy in the green tee came by and called police, then a dog-walker, then the milk-van. Burglar insisted on his innocence the whole time, claimed the door was unlocked, the man let him in, etc, and pointed out he had no tools. Police arrived. Two cars. Then four. Then six. Bracelets when on. I went inside
Japanese have many strange trends and Itasha is anything, but one more such a thing. Can you imagine what happened with a car, whose owner is obsessed with manga, anime and video games at the same time? If not, take a look after the jump ))
Unbelievable but Dirk Auer was actually skating down a rollercoaster. It's the "Mammoth" coaster at the Trips Drill theme park in Stuttgart, Germany. The guy was wearing specially designed in-line skates. Take a look.
The 4th annual Maker Faire, an event organized by Make Magazine, recently took place in California. People could see different DIY creations there and one of the most spectacular was Mercedes Pens - a car (actually Mercedes) covered with 10.000 pens! Yeah, such a custom car you'll never see in everyday life! ))
Have you ever imagined how such simple and useful things like headphones, computer mice, web cams etc. were made? Most of them are manufactured in China, at big and small factories, where people make their monotonous work 10 hours a day and get paid approximately $300 per month.
Cody McCasland is not an ordinary child. He had to have his legs amputated below the knee when he was only 15 month old because of a rare condition called Sacral Agenesis. Some months later he got his first prosthetic legs and since then he can move almost like any other kid. Нe can not only walk, but run, swim, play soccer, golf, karate, ice hockey etc. But the boy grows fast, so he outgrows his prosthetic legs all the time and needs new. Now he is seven and during his life he had many surgeries because of his condition, but despite all of the problems Cody remains an amazing spirit.
