All about unusual and funny news

If this picture is genuine it is quite unique in that it shows an eagle holding a knife. It is claimed that it was taken by a photographer who cutting up chunks of meat to attract birds of prey dropped his knife in the snow. He later noticed the eagle flying away with the knife. I can’t help thinking the picture has been Photo shopped but none the less it’s a nice image.

I see so many articles about things that look like Jesus, I am beginning to wonder whether this blog may need a new category to reflect this. The latest image of Jesus has been spotted on the back of a stingray. As you can see from the picture this uncanny resemblance was recently caught on camera on a South Carolina  beach. Once again I leave you to draw your own conclusions until we come across the next thing that looks like Jesus.

A hermit crab at Legoland in Windsor has made himself a new home out of a Lego shell. The shell was made by Legoland staff out of multi-coloured bricks. The crab named Harry appears quite happy in his new shell and judging by the video of him moving around, doesn’t seem to mind that he looks a bit different to the other crabs. In fact Harry rejected more conventional shell homes in favour of the more brightly coloured alternative.

More than 300 people in Colchester are hoping they have broken the world record for the largest number of people in a piggyback race. The attempt at breaking the record was made last week in Lower Castle Park, Colchester. It aimed to break the previous world record which was set last November and included 296 people. The organisers are now waiting for official verification to see whether or not there were successful. 

If you like dressing up your dog then you might be interested in these dinosaur costumes. Available in velociraptor, stegosaurus or triceratops they are on sale for £20 and are designed to turn your pooch into something much more scary or ridiculous depending on your views. I think my cats would look great in one of these but my chances of getting it on them are very slim.

This picture was recently taken in the Reunion Islands by a French videographer. He later realised that it resembled a Jesus silhouette complete with halo. Personally I am not convinced it looks like a cloud to me.

In an unusual story Thomas the Tank Engine has been involved in a road crash on the Kent and East Sussex border. A lorry carrying the train crashed with a van on the A28 at Newenden whilst it was on it’s way to Tenterden for a Kent and East Sussex Railway event. The good news is that Thomas appears to unharmed although he will be inspected to ensure he is in perfect working order.

If you are planning a trip to Iceland, then you might want to check out the Icelandic Phallological Museum. It currently has the largest collection of penises in the world and has recently added a human penis to its collection. Over 200 specimens are preserved in test tubes and glass vessels whilst some larger ones are displayed like hunting trophies on the wall.
