The artworks of Jeffrey G. Batchelor certainly deserve attention.
All his works are very unusual and quite interesting. Personally, I really liked it.

30-year-old Tanya Angus, who lives in Nevada, weighs 480 pounds (220 kilograms) and continues to grow. The reason - a very rare syndrome: acromegaly, it is often also associated with gigantism.
More than $ 250,000 have already been spent for her treatment but without any result.
That’s how she looked at 18 years old, how she has changed, you can see inside the post.

There are bicycle rickshaws or motorized rickshaws. And here, in the Philippines in Manila, there is a special kind of rickshaw – “rail rickshaw”.
The cost of the travel is low: 6-10 Philippine pesos ($ 0.12 - $ 0.21) depending on the distance. The only inconvenience - you have to let the trains pass.

Very cool pictures, which show what we normally can’t see with the naked eye. For example - the airflow, the shimmering of a burning candle, hair dryer's hot air, shockwaves of explosions or of a fired gun, an invisible gas leak and much more.

Karl Merk, a 54-year-old German farmer, who last year in July received the world's first operation of double arm transplant, appeared before reporters.
Both arms of Karl Merk were amputated to shoulder after an accident at work, but the doctors did a real miracle. The arms were taken from a young man who died in a car accident.
According to medics, it will take about two years to fully restore the functions of the arms.

Mortadella - is a kind of large sausage. Normally, its weight can reach 200 kg, but there are some of them that could reach a ton!
It is an Italian specialty, made of finely hashed/ground heat-cured pork sausage which incorporates at least 15% small cubes of pork fat and the slices go up to 30 centimeters in diameter when it is served ;)

Yeah, in Japan during the rush hour, it is better not to use any public transport at all (especially the subway). It's really tight.
Especially, watch the first video

Itasha is a Japanese term for an otaku fad of individuals decorating the bodies of their cars with fictional characters of anime, manga, or video games. These characters are predominately "cute" females. The decorations usually involve paint schemes and stickers. Automobiles are called Itasha, while similar motorcycles and bicycles are called itansha and itachari, respectively.
The cars are seen prominently in places such as Akihibara (Tokyo), Nipponbashi (Osaka), or Ōsu (Nagoya).
I gathered here a compilation of such cars. You’ll notice that in general, those are not cheap cars!

Jyothi Raj, 22, is performing for tourists at India's Chitradurga Fort. He climbs the wall and gives the impression that he can stick to it. He likes also to exercise on very dangerous building sites of India. He claims he never uses any kind of harness. To achieve his climbing skills, he says that he watched monkeys climb trees and analyzed the stunts from movies.
Impressive and dangerous. Hope he sticks to it good ;)
