These are some of the 1,075 photographs taken by Taryn Simon who spent 5 days last year taking pictures of cargo seized or detained from express mail and passengers entering the USA from abroad at Kennedy airport. All the photos were shot for the project “Contraband”. Some of these counterfeit and prohibited items are weird, others are just hilarious.

If you ever think about shipping dinosaur eggs, think twice before working with FedEx. See why after the jump.

These photographs of people before and after workouts show how a person’s image, style and looks can easily change depending on what they are doing at the moment.

These posters contain some of the strangest and bizarre propaganda of all times. Some deal with the military, some deal with everyday life, and they are all very old and rather funny. Remember that loose lips sink ships.

Tiger-Stone is a Dutch paver laying machine that can produce brick roads. This machine rolls out an amazing hardscape and creates an instant road anywhere it goes. The process looks magical and unbelievable.

Paving bricks are put onto the angled plain. As the electric crawler moves forward along a sand base layer, all the stones are packed together by gravity. The Tiger-Stone is able to lay out 400 square meters of road per day. You should watch the video to see this impressive machine in action.

Seeing someone’s face tattooed isn’t normal, as for me. But these mugshot tattoos, even though some of them are oldies of the day, are not only strange and ugly, they are crazy!

PAC-MAN's 30th Anniversary

Seeing Adriana Iliescu and her 5-year-old daughter Eliza walking hand in hand, you are more likely to believe that they are a great grandparent and a granddaughter. Adriana, a writer from Romania, delivered Eliza at the age of 66, and she is 72 now. She became the oldest mother in the world in 2005 thanks to IVF.

People call Adriana granny for fun, but she got used to it. And what would you say if a 72-year-old woman delivers another child?

These miniature soldiers are very realistic. The war scenes also look real and tell a story. These aren’t your everyday toy soldiers. They are real miniatures. The equipment in the scenes also look real. The whole scene is quite amazing.

An interesting compilation of some of the most unusual Google Street View pictures from various positions along different world’s streets.

It is sad, but true that Mexicans now feel they need a bullet proof car to drive the streets. They feel it is a necessity and not a luxury. These cars sell for an average price of $80,000 dollars. What type of car gets armored?  It is a wide variety including small SUVs, pickups, Hondas, and others. Business is booming and it is estimated that if you purchased a car today you wouldn’t get it until February.
