According to <a href="http://www.metro.co.uk/weird/article.html?Mexico_to_give_out_free_Viagra&amp;in_article_id=403103&amp;in_page_id=2">this
article</a> Mexico will dive out free Viagra and other drugs that enhance sexual performance
to impotent men. The idea is simply to make people happy because as the mayor says
sexuality "has a lot to do with quality of life and our happiness." The
drugs will be available to the men over 70 and will be handed out at special clinics
from the 1st of December.

A man has to be taken to hospital after he became <a href="http://www.metro.co.uk/weird/article.html?Toilet_gag_has_a_sticky_end&amp;in_article_id=382932&amp;in_page_id=2">stuck
to a toilet</a>. Emergency services were called to a public toilet after a man found
himself stuck. An ambulance crew were unable to free him so he was taken to hospital
still attached to the seat. A doctor used a special chemical to free the man and the
toilet was later returned. It appears that someone had left glue on the seat as a
prank.

A passenger on a French train had to be <a href="http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/7693386.stm">rescued
from a train toilet</a> after his arm became stuck. The man became trapped after he
tried to fish his mobile phone out of the toilet bowl and his arm got stuck in the
suction system. The high speed train was stopped for two hours to allow fireman to
cut through the train's pipework. The man was eventually rescued from the train with
the toilet still stuck on his arm. The fire brigade then had to saw through the toilet
to remove it.

pony</a> had to be rescued from a swimming pool after he ate too many fermented apples
and fell into the water. The pony broke into a garden in Cornwall to get to the fruit
trees. He gorged himself on the fermenting apples, getting himself "punch drunk"
and then ended up in the swimming pool. The pony was later rescued by a team of firefighters
who used a harness to pull him out.

ate it</a>. The 1,500 metre long sandwich was going to be filled with ostrich meat
before being displayed in the park in Tehran. As the sandwich was being measured hungry
spectators rushed forward and started eating it meaning that the exact length of the
sandwich could not be verified for the world record attempt.

Cooks in Iran have assembled what could be the <a href="http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/middle_east/7675281.stm">world's
largest ostrich sandwich</a> at a food festival in Tehran. 1500 cooks used 1,000kg
of ostrich meat to make a 1,500m long sandwich which they hope will be large enough
to earn a place in the Guinness Book of Records. It took two days to prepare the enormous
sandwich which was created as part of an effort to promote Iran's ostrich farming
business.

the cart it was pulling looked out of control. They ran an alcohol test which came
back positive and the horse was then arrested. It is thought the horse had been given
alcohol before it was sold to make it look stronger and healthier.

of elephants</a> that pass through a hotel during their migration. The Mfuwe Lodge
in Zambia was built right on the elephants migration route and rather than find another
way around the elephants simply walk straight though. The herd of 10 elephants appear
every November and take the same route every year to get to their favourite mango
trees.

A couple have been killed after a <a href="http://www.metro.co.uk/news/world/article.html?Stop-smoking_intervention_goes_horribly_wrong&amp;in_article_id=338480&amp;in_page_id=64">bizarre
ritual</a> which was meant to help them give up smoking. The couple died of head injuries
after being beaten with broomsticks and motorbike helmets during a family gathering
at a home in Kuala Lumpar. According to the family members that were detained, the
beating ritual had been suggested by a nephew after the couple said they could not
give up smoking. It seems that the nephew convinced the other members of the family
to beat each other.

Two robbers had to leave half of their loot behind because they didn't have a big
enough car to carry it away. The robbers could have escaped with £1 million when
they <a href="http://www.metro.co.uk/weird/article.html?Dumb_robbers_getaway_car_was_too_small&amp;in_article_id=332521&amp;in_page_id=2">hijacked
a security van</a> full of cash. Unfortunately when it came to fitting the loot in
the car they were forced to leave half of it behind in the van. The van was later
discovered with half the money still inside.
