In Russia, there is often a lane in the middle of the road which is reserved to police or government officials. You have to possess a pass to drive on that lane. And you can buy a pass like this, but a fake one, anywhere in Russia…
That’s what’s happening here. The guy has a pass, which is quite convenient to avoid the traffic jams…
Rishi Baveja, a Cambridge graduate, was in Phuket on holiday to celebrate his degree in engineering. He paid £50 to make the jump at the Jungle Bungy centre in Kathu, whose website claimed it had a 100 per cent safety record… well I guess it’s no longer 100%.
What he thought would be a normal but scary experience revealed to be what you can exactly fear about those services…
Here is what happened in a Chinese street. It was quick and the girl could do nothing…
A 47 year-old Ukrainian guy accidentally dropped a 200 hryvnia bill ($24) in a squat toilet in a train station.
He tried to take the money back but his arm got stuck in the hole. The rescuers spent three hours to free the unlucky guy.
Look at the pics and the video inside the post.
Here is a compilation of those steel monsters of the seas. You will see submarines on the surface of the water, in the port or being constructed… and other interesting pics.
Look at the selection after the jump.
China is the largest coal producer in the world. More than 1 billion tons of raw coal is extracted there in a year.
But this is all given at a price, about 5,000 people die each year in the mines and this figure may be understated especially by the Chinese government.
Well, let's see in what miserable conditions these brave people work.
Here’s a big collection of billboard advertising.
Advertisment can actually be interesting and arresting.
If you think that not to give money to a beggar in China is that easy, well, you’re wrong.
They are quite brazen and they tend to choose young girls as their victims, it is easier to get money from them ;)
Let's take a look at photos.
A quick note about Ig Nobel Prizes for those who have no idea what it is: The Ig Nobel Prizes are a parody of the Nobel Prizes and are given each year in early October for ten achievements that "first make people laugh, and then make them think".
This is a compilation of really weird police sketches. It seems impossible to recognize someone with such sketches. Some look more like caricatures or kid drawings than police sketches…
What are co-workers actually saying in their office emails? You’ve got to admit that when it concerns their work, people tend to tell things differently, whether they’re hypocrites or they want to be polite. So here are some common inter-office emails and their translation.
Quite funny :))

You absolutely should look at the creation of Andy Riley.
The ideas and pictures themselves are very funny. Personally, I laughed like a drain ))
The Ladybird ‘easy reading’ Book of the Policeman is a twisted adaptation from a series of kids books about 'People at Work' – sort of amusing and clever facts about policemen… but not for children.
This advertising campaign for Ambi Pur is simply excellent. You must admit that making a good commercial for a brand of deodorant spray for toilets is not that easy.
The visuals are well done and it’s humoristic. The idea of giving a look of luxury fragrance is original and more interesting than usual ads for such products.
Well, as far as I’m concerned, I found the ads very well done…
