The Newspaper Bench

09/30/08 - Pretty Cool

“The “334” bench is made of 3 parallel bars of metal and 334 newspapers folded and stacked next to each other. The challenge of that series is to recycle a product, but also to design a furniture without using any screw, glue, soldering, etc. Because of the large number of newspapers stacked in the 3 bars, the whole structure is very strong and can support more than 5 people.” w/ photos

09/30/08 - Amazing

“Tran Van Hay may have the world’s longest hair. At approximately 20 feet, the 73-year-old Vietnamese man keeps it balanced on his head under a scarf and it looks like a giant turban. He unravels it for visitors and his wife lays it out on the table to show them just how long it is.”

Handcar Regatta Race

09/30/08 - Ridiculous

“This week saw the commencement of the first annual Handcar Regatta race, in which over a dozen teams took to the rails in a ridiculous variety of human-powered steampunk machinery. The event wasn’t so much a race as it was a showcase of overwrought vehicle design, taking inspiration from everything from hamster wheels to animals to, courtesy of the one team that took the “regatta” part literally, Viking longships.” w/ photo + video

Heron Eats Rabbit

09/30/08 - Unbelievable

“Enjoying a leisurely wade in the waters of the Dutch undergrowth this grey heron decided to go in search of lunch when he came across this unsuspecting black rabbit. Undeterred by its size, the grey heron, the largest bird of its kind in Europe, swooped down and gobbled the rabbit up in one mouthful.” w/ photos
