An ATM attracted a queue of over sixty people when word spread that the ATM had malfunctioned and begun giving out free money. I think it is more worrying than anything that word got to sixty people before it got to the owners of the ATM. Someone is definitely going to get into trouble over this debacle. A young ostrich in Kent disrupted traffic when it decided to race the cars driving past. Amazingly it reached speeds of up to forty kilometers an hour. A man bared his bottom on Reddit for the whole internet to see after a rare medical condition caused his buttocks to require surgery. This resulted in the loss of his bum cheeks so all there really is to see is a whole lot of back with what looks like a belly-button but is actually... well, you know. There is even more animal news today when a squirrel caused more than 7000 pounds (nearly AU$13,000) to the house of a mother-of-two (apparently this was important to the story somehow) when it was trapped inside. The mother thought the house had been robbed. A silly truck-driver has found himself stuck under the shelter of a petrol station after trying to pass through with a large load of hay. Sometimes you wonder if these guys even think. Apparently the driver appeared to be "shaken". I do not understand how this counts as 'weird' news but The Mirror thought that it did. A sex toy company has invented mobile phone controlled vibrating panties. This is big news apparently. A father's plan to hold an internet vote to name his new baby has backfired with names such as Slagathor and Megatron making the list. You know when people get the chance they are going to vote for those names. I bet the man's wife is very pleased with him right about now. Does anyone else hear the call for a divorce? Some Chinese students have created an 'ingenious' way of staying awake while studying. They use a home-made peg device attached to their hair so if they start to fall asleep they get yanked back into reality. It does sound pretty desperate but hey, you can not hate ingenuity. A pastor in the UK has condensed his whole service into ONE MINUTE just so he could watch the NFL game. I know some people would not be very happy but I would LOVE to go to that Church. I would probably only go to masses that he was hosting and only when there was an NFL game but hey, I could say that I go to Church a whole lot more often. Two lovers have ended their sex-romp in a whole lot of pain when the man fell from a tree right on to his presumably erect manhood. According to the story the poor man snapped his penis. I think all men everywhere would agree when I say ouch. Artist David Cata has sewn painfully accurate portraits (only of the head) of his family members on to his palms to reflect how they are sewn into his life. That must have been incredibly painful and would it not be so ironic if one day he had a big falling out with one of his family members? It is just as bad as, if not worse than, tattooing the name of a boyfriend/girlfriend onto your body. Finally, I wrap up this weeks Weird News Tuesday with China building a Titanic theme park with a life-size replica of the doomed ship simulating its sinking.
Hope you have had not too weird a week. See you tomorrow.
