The trio performed the feat using only balance bars and without safety nets - a daunting prospect considering they were some 350m (1,150ft) above the ground. As if that wasn't death-defying enough, they crossed at the same time in opposite directions which, needless to say, required some extra tricky maneuvering. http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=b24_1347901845 i8AmA8i New World Record in Tightrope Walking tightrope , world record , guinness world records , crazy , china , adil hoshur , stunt , high , altitude , death-defying , balance , impressive , dare devil Fri, 07 Sep 2012 15:39:51 -0400 http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=1b3_1347041174 i8AmA8i South Sulawesi province, Indonesia - an exhumed pair of mummies are given a new set of clothes. Referred to as Ma'nene, the ceremony is meant to pay respects to dead ancestors and honor the bonds that exist between family members, both living and dead. Indeed, many locals believe spirits of deceased ancestors are still with them. Occurring every three years, mummies are cleaned and given new clothes before being laid back in their graves. Here, the first mummy (Piter Sampe Sambara) is around 80 years old while second (Martha Bu'ta') is some 40 years old though, apparently, some such mummies are well over 100 years. http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=1b3_1347041174 i8AmA8i Mummies Given New Clothes in Ceremony mummy , weird , interesting , ritual , indonesia , ceremony , strange , cultural , crazy , wtf , dead body , Thu, 06 Sep 2012 12:03:09 -0400 http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=63c_1346945485 i8AmA8i Here we have typical example of what happens in such an event. City of Lanzhou, Gansu province - a truck fully loaded with some 300,000 yuan (47,000 US$) worth of grapes rolled sideways during a tight corner, spilling its contents into the roadway. Neighborhood locals and passersby soon appeared to plunder the scene, making short work of the 'bounty' and negating any prospect of a salvage operation. http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=63c_1346945485 i8AmA8i Truck Spills Grapes - Locals Plunder accident , crash , funny , crazy , china , thieves , plunder , grapes , thief , steal Sat, 01 Sep 2012 13:05:43 -0400 http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=9a0_1346515463 i8AmA8i A portion of sidewalk constructed from tempered glass in China's Sichuan province broke while two men were walking over it, sending them plunging five metres down into a parking garage below. According to a reporter from the scene, the portion of sidewalk was constructed from 40 layers of tempered glass, but apparently a fair number had already developed cracks. On the topic of glass pathways, one must admit such reports make Tianmen's glass mountain path , some 1430m (4700ft) high, all the more daunting. http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=9a0_1346515463 i8AmA8i Men Fall Through Glass Sidewalk fail , glass sidewalk , construction fail , china , ouch , bad luck , painful , random accident , weird , scary Fri, 31 Aug 2012 21:48:19 -0400 http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=aa4_1346458219 i8AmA8i Here we have an example of 'crimson cooking' with a rat. Term can also be translated as 'red cooking' - typically refers to cooking with soy sauce in Chinese language. Cooking with soy sauce is fine by me but, with a rat - bones, skin and tail included?

Began when man in the white shirt attempted to force his way into the passenger queue in front of the man in the black shirt's wife. Heated altercation soon led to a full out fight, resulting in man in the white shirt knocked-out with a bleeding nose. Man in the black shirt then hurriedly ushered his wife into a taxi and attempted to flee but was soon intercepted by station security. It is said the men were able to come to terms the next morning. http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=ea8_1346448831 i8AmA8i Angry Chinese Men Fight fight , fist fight , quarrel , china ,beijing , west station , knock-out , funny , ridiculous Sat, 25 Aug 2012 13:44:47 -0400 http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=ad8_1345914829 i8AmA8i Statue was recently established in a famous sightseeing spot in China's Henan province. That such a statue is too erotic and obscene to exist in public space was discussed in local news. It's reported authorities have appeared to observe it for themselves. As for the individual responsible for its production, they claim, "...it's a piglet receiving a back massage from its mother." However, the statue's inspirational source has been discovered - part of a series of erotic pig figurines produced some ten years ago. ...and, yeah... little more can be said http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=ad8_1345914829 i8AmA8i Chinese Tourist Area Statue Considered Too Erotic wtf , china , comedy , funny , tourist fail , design fail , strange , obscene , fail , hilarious , strange , erotic statue Sat, 25 Aug 2012 13:12:18 -0400 http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=66e_1345913194 i8AmA8i A Taiwan tourist bus carrying passengers from the mainland city of Guangzhou crashed into the roof of a tunnel it was clearly too large for, injuring 15 of the 24 tourist passengers, two of which were in intensive care. The accident occurred around 1pm on the 24th of August. It is believed the driver failed to consider the height of the tunnel. http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=66e_1345913194 i8AmA8i Tourist Bus Too Tall For Tunnel crash , bus , bus crash , tourist bus , vacation ruined , china , taiwan , news , vehicular accident , hits roof , tunnel , accident , fail , driving fail Fri, 17 Aug 2012 13:20:17 -0400 http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=970_1345223626 i8AmA8i The accident happened when the driver of the electric moped pulled out in front of the truck driver prompting him to suddenly brake and swerve. The fully loaded truck rolled, spilling ten tonnes of hot asphalt onto the moped driver. The accident occurred in Yuhuan, Zhejiang province on the 14th around noon. The truck's driver, Yang Fu, was on his way from the waterfront to a nearby construction site. According to him, while crossing an intersection the moped came suddenly from his right. In an attempt to avoid a collision he blasted the horn, braked heavily and veered left, which caused the truck to overturn and dump its load onto the moped driver. Firefighters wearing heat resistant boots used shovels and hoes to retrieve the body of the 18 year old moped driver. Found nearly an hour after the ordeal, the body was burnt near beyond recognition; the asphalt had apparently been around 100^0C. According to a witness on scene, as the truck dumped the asphalt a large plume of black smoke was let forth. The victim appeared to scream sharply from within the asphalt, soon after subsiding into silence. A spokesman for emergency crews reports he would have died within a minute. http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=970_1345223626 i8AmA8i Fatal Accident: Moped Rider Buried Alive in Asphalt china , news , accident , crash , burnt , buried , asphalt , truck ,tar , moped , bike , death , fatal , vehicular accident , Thu, 16 Aug 2012 17:03:06 -0400 http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=202_1345150199 i8AmA8i The man, who resides in China's Jilin province, lost both of his hands when a home-made bomb used in order to catch fish exploded prematurely. Lacking the funds to afford prosthetic hands, he spent eight years (presumably with a helper) constructing his won. One cannot help but be impressed by his ingenuity - via elbow movement he's able to move the hands' fingers and thumbs enough to grasp various tools and function on his own. Considering they look rather like something from Renaissance Europe, it's understandable why he's known locally as 'China's Steel Alchemist'. He admits some short-comings with his work, such as the inability to lift heavy objects and their tendency to become cold during winter months. http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=202_1345150199 i8AmA8i Man Blows Off Hands - Makes Another Pair china , other news , ingenuity , genius , accident , blows off hands , metal working , crazy , unexpected , welding , artificial hands , artificial limbs , presthetics , home made , steel works , metal works , iron works , Thu, 16 Aug 2012 13:47:09 -0400 http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=60b_1345135677 i8AmA8i Heavy flooding in the Philippines capitol, Manila, estimated to have effected the lives of some two million people, has now stopped and the waters are receding. However, in what one would think is an unreal situation droves of people appear to be out having fun. Some, perhaps a little too much. In times when one would think the majority would be troubled, such people likely represent those particularly resilient and carefree. Flooding was heaviest from the 6th to the 8th, during which record setting downpours devastated Manila suburbs. Video below, shot from rubber dinghy on the 8th of Aug in the Santa Mesa V-Mapa district, showcases some of the flooding. http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=60b_1345135677 i8AmA8i Heavy Flooding in Manila Nothing but Fun and Games to Some Folks philippines , crazy people , crazy , funny , fun , floods , flood , news , other news , rain , storm , weather , unexpected , manila Thu, 16 Aug 2012 00:30:22 -0400 http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=3b7_1345088291 i8AmA8i Residents in a suburb of Xi'an, China, discovered what appeared to be a strange species of mushroom while drilling a well. When none in the village, including the 80 year old village elder, were able to identify it and searches online suggested a mysterious species granting perpetual youth, a news team was called forth. Xi'an Television later apologized via their formal account on Chinese Twitter, citing their reporter's "youth and ignorance in the way of the world". http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=3b7_1345088291 i8AmA8i Chinese News Team Confuses Male Sex Toy For Mushroom Species china , other entainment , funny , fail , comedy , news fail , news blooper , sex toy , mistake , lol , wtf , embarrasment , hilarious
