The Ga-Adangbe are an ethnic group in the West African nation of Ghana.
The Ga people are renowned worldwide for their funeral celebrations and processions. The Ga believe that when someone dies, they move to another life. Therefore, special coffins are often crafted by highly skilled carpenters. The coffins can be anything wanted by relatives of the deceased from a pencil to any animal such as an elephant. Coffins are usually crafted to reflect an essence of the deceased, in forms such as a character trait, an occupation, or a symbol of one's standing in the community. For example, a taxicab driver is most likely to be buried in a coffin shaped as a car. These coffins are usually very expensive, as their nature means that skilled carpenters take longer to produce them compared to conventional coffins.
Take a look inside the post at those unusual coffins.

That's how photographers were having fun before the computer era ;)

There’s a very unusual thing in one Russian city Rostov-on-Don - mosaics in the pedestrian underpasses.
It looks great and there is another amazing feature - the size of mosaics, many of them have a length of up to ten meters. Take a look.

Have you ever seen such a big sum in one place? No? Here it is.
Every one knows that drug traffickers have the most luxurious and the most expensive houses in the world with exotic private zoos etc..
One of the Mexican drug leaders, native of China who gained Mexican citizenship, had all this money at his house. He fled before the police came into his house in one of Mexico City’s wealthiest neighborhoods and found this pile of money that was hidden inside walls, suitcases and closets.
All the money came from the profits of methamphetamines sold in the United States.
It was estimated that major narco-traffickers were now US $205 million poorer.

It happened in Moscow. That day, it was 8.25 am when the last tram passed on that line ))
If you wonder why, go and see the rest of the post after the jump.

It is known that during the financial crisis, volumes of construction works fall heavily, the demand for construction materials reduces twice, including the demand for bricks.
Therefore, brick factories in Russia came up with unconventional moves to stay afloat.
One of them is in front of your eyes. Sexy girls pose with... bricks.
Only in Russia as they say ;)))

Early in the morning, you go to catch your train, then you see ‘this’ and your mood is immediately improved even though there’s a whole working day ahead :)) Yes, I would laugh hard if I saw this.
To each their own, but as for me, this is not for men...

Stunning portraits of centenarians and supercentenarians (people who are 110 years old and older) who have seen a lot of things in their life.
Many of them managed to live in three centuries, as it is said “the face of age”.
Enjoy!

Here’s a good example of culture differences. In Japan, it is something common to have such capsule hotels. It is made for businessmen in the first place, who don’t have time to go home and start working very early. Or for people who didn’t catch the last train. Their well developed train system shuts down around midnight.
So, here you go, little boxes where you can only be in a lying position. There’s even a small TV set at your feet.

It can also be called “pictures taken at the right moment.”
In particular, the ones with politicians.

Well, technically those are photos of Pripyat, the city where the Chernobyl power plant is situated and the site of Chernobyl disaster in 1986.

Rio de Janeiro is a beautiful city which must be very interesting to visit but nothing is perfect and behind the beautiful beaches, there are a lot of things that happen in the slums…
The battle which began on Saturday between hundreds of drug traffickers from different rival gangs put the chaos in Rio and turned the city into a warzone. They shot down a police helicopter. 17 people died that weekend.
Talk about a good advertisement two weeks only after Rio was awarded the 2016 Olympics…
It raised questions over the city's ability to safely host the Games in 2016.

A 24-year-old German woman “Lady Lee” is offering a mobile squeals on wheels service for men.
Now, punters will now be whipped in an 'anonymous' looking van…
She said: "I just bought a van and kitted out the interior with a complete S and M studio so my slaves don't have to visit me.”
"It has everything you'd want - restraints, cages, gags, chains and whips. I like seeing men suffer.
"And most important of all, the van is completely soundproof so your neighbours will never know."

One of the world's longest man made structures is the Australian Dingo Fence. In fact it is also the world's longest fence ever.
Stretching across two southeastern Australian states, Queensland and South Australia, the Dingo Fence is 5,614 kilometres long.
Please note that this "dog fence" is not really made of dogs. If it was, it would take 5,614,000 dingoes standing nose-to-butt to construct this fence.
