Known as The Float at Marina Bay (or Marina Bay Floating Platform), this floating stadium is the world's largest floating stage. It is located on the waters of the Marina Reservoir, in Marina Bay, Singapore.
Made entirely of steel, the floating platform measures 120 metres long and 83 metres wide. It can bear up to 1,070 tonnes, equivalent to the total weight of 9,000 people, 200 tonnes of stage props and three 30-tonne military vehicles. The gallery at the stadium has a seating capacity of 30,000 people.
The stage took 13 months to build, and by April 2007, the platform and seating gallery were completed.
I think it’s a great idea, but the grandstands seem to be quite far…
This guy is a Terminator in the world of bodybuilding. It is enough for him to show up on one of the bodybuilding championships that other bodybuilders feel no need to go on with the competition. He is the biggest, the fittest and the one who attracts most of attention. See for yourself, you will recognize him in no time.
Have you heard of a great German travel kit, which is sold at all service stations with chewing gums and Snickers, called "Travel Pussy"? Well, here it is a miracle set which costs 4 euros. Are the German armless?
Just look how children are transported home from one kindergarten.

Strong seasonal drought prevails in the vast Amazon rainforest. Just a horrible view.
For those with a weak stomach, don’t watch these pics while eating.
These are works of photographer Kerry Skarbakka. He photographs himself falling out of windows, trees etc.
In some of the pictures, security equipment is used, especially for heavy falling but for the others, it was just plain falls without any mattresses or security equipment.
Truly Ingenious. And it’s all handmade…
Those 2 objects could be nice gifts to offer to Pac Man fans.

How do you think what is this interesting "hair" growing on this tree? Any ideas?

Snowflakes are amazing, unique and beautiful. Too bad we can’t enjoy their full beauty with the naked eye.
But as small as they are, they can be photographed, so here it is, a nice compilation of beautiful snowflakes just for you. ))

A very strong and interesting advertising campaign was launched by Publics Mojo to support the CALM, a New Zealand campaign against landmines.
The idea is quite original and reminds everyone that in many countries, there are children who step on landmines everyday.
But it can be also seen as a disturbing one: every time you open a ketchup bag, you “also rip through the child’s leg and the ketchup inside pours out like blood.”
A certain Craig has left strange but funny notes all over his city.

Another masterpiece of David Thorne. This time he’s messing around with a manager of his building who tries to recall him that it is prohibited to have animals in the apartment. To see David’s brilliant replies, go inside the post.
It is, of course, funny to read this all, but I wouldn’t like to be a person to whom David Thorne replies It would make me kill myself
Here are another email of David Thorne:
