These are Watts Towers constructed from different materials, including steel pipes, wire mesh, pieces of porcelain, glass and objects such as bottles, bed frames and sea shells. These unusual towers were built by Sam Rodia 50 years ago. Their heights are 30, 29.5 and 16.76 m.

Sam’s structures were built without predetermined design and meaning. But they made the sense of life of Italian immigrant who spent 33 years working on them with hand tools and without special equipment. Sam was divorced. He couldn’t see his children. He worked in city’s mines and was starving. But Watts Towers have really become the most important project in this strange man’s life.

These are some hilarious Christmas photos from 1992. They are quite awkward and the people in them must have been rather embarrassed when they first saw them. Perhaps somebody in their family spiked the eggnog.

These are some miniature apocalyptic photos that were photographed by Lori Nix. They depict scenes of impending doom and gloom. They are in color and make a very interesting project. They are also very well done.

These are World of Warcraft cakes. They are all very elaborately done and most look too good to eat. They are decorated with different characters and scenes of the very popular online computer game.

These are some HDR photos that are absolutely beautiful. The combination of the computer and the camera makes these photos stunningly gorgeous. The colors are so bright you would swear that you are there.

He is very OK Boy:::::

These guys really feel awkward standing so close to girls. Why? Are they too shy or scared by the beauty they see? I don’t know, but this collection of hover hands is funny.

True story.

Sorry folks, there isn’t any room on the ski lifts in Maine today. The Santa’s have attacked in force and are having a high day of skiing the slopes. Over 250 Santas converged on Newry, Maine, Sunday River for the annual Santa Sunday event.

It is obvious now, this dog simply love riots. It’s not the first time he rebels against the authorities in Athens together with other people. If you want more of riot dog, check it out in here:

These people came up with a very interesting idea. Half of their face when they were children was photographically combined to the other half as adults. You can really see how some people have changed and others haven’t. But a lot of pictures look really creepy, it makes me think of Frankenstein...

This happened on the River Ribble in Lancashire, England. A Labrador and his owner were walking along the shore when the dog strayed on to thin ice close to the center of the river and fell into the water. Witnesses of this drama shouted to the Labrador’s owner not to go after her pet, but she did what she did. Laying on her front, she was crawling out on the ice trying to get closer to the dog when the ice broke under her weight. Now the woman had to fight for her life in the icy water. Luckily, her partner rushed up and rescued her with the help of the dog lead. And what happened to the Labrador? Go inside this post to find out.

I’m not a fan of three wheeled motorcycles but this one is outrageous and the color red gives it a big plus!

I don’t know where these photos were taken but you have never seen so much snow in your life. It has everything covered and what looks like people trying to dig into their homes. Winter has certainly arrived wherever it is.

These gay Olympics were held in Cologne, Germany. More than 10,000 athletes gathered there to compete against each another in 2010. Although they are very athletic looking, you can easily tell they are gay by their poses.

These pictures describe humorous stories from life, showing you how it was before, and how it is now. Comparing the past and the present is something to laugh about.

This collection of mug shots contains the most creative booking photographs of 2010. Each winner shot is named according to its nomination. Enjoy!

There is very unusual art in Japan. It is called “inemuri”, and it allows people to be asleep and present at the same time. There is no secret that Japan is a workaholic culture. Thus some people have an amazing talent for falling asleep in elevators, on trains and even during meetings. And this talent is admired, because the Japanese think that only slackers can sleep all night long, others should fall asleep out of exhaustion.

“Inemuri” still requires following particular rules. You can’t lounge, so you should keep upright while sleeping. And you can’t endanger the social situation.

Of course, some people fake “inemuri”. But even when they actually take a nap on the go, they can still maintain their composure. For example, they won’t miss their stop even when being genuinely asleep.

We have all seen the great jobs that Google has to offer, and the amazing bonuses that they hand out to outstanding employees, so let’s get a job with Google. It is easier than it sounds. Here are just ten of the off the wall questions that you might be asked. These are real questions asked of other candidates.

This season billboards are king in the war between the atheists and the Catholics. As you drive into the Lincoln tunnel you’ll see in one corner the atheists and in the other corner the Catholics.

What’s happened? Did someone have a fight, or was it that damned cat again?

Almost 1/3 of China is sinking in garbage. Local recycling plants can process only 50% of the domestic garbage. Ecology of many cities is under threat, because the mountains of trash grow by 4.8% per year. And if this situation doesn’t change in the nearest future, all Chinese landfills will disappear under the trash by 2015.
