Beaches are a great place to relax and unwind. Unless the beach in question is this beach. This beach has planes flying so low over it that the turbulence can cause serious physical harm. Not exactly relaxing, eh?

Capturing an exact moment in a photo sometimes yields totally different results than at first expected, when something in total action mode gets frozen in time some very interesting outcomes can happen that are awesome!

A weird gallery of those kinds of pics that simply can't fail but make you utterly baffled. It's pretty safe to say there's some truly strange people out there doing some crazy things. You probably live near some of them?

For some of us that sit at a computer all day, having the odd slice (or 10) of pizza to keep us going, the thought of shedding the pounds and toning up to a six-packed muscle-bound human might seem impossible. Apparently though it isnt.

It's good to see that at some point over the last few years cosplay really upped its game to an entirely new level of awesome! At it's creative peak can be a superbly entertaining spectacle (especially if they are cute).

As impressive as these are it seems such a waste of the time spent creating them as they are only there for a few days at the most, before they totally dry out and fall to pieces. It must be sad to see such awesome sculptures fade so quickly.

They said it couldn't happen, but here's the conclusive proof: people can fly, it just so happens they can only do it when poised above a bed. Coincidence? Don't be so sceptical, next thing you'll tell me Santa isn't real.

It might not be the most original fancy dress costume, but it's pretty easy to put together and pretty damn effective. All you need is a face, a knife, some guts and a zipper to glue to your face afterwards. Enjoy!

It's always difficult balancing expectation and reality, unless you sell fast food, in which case you just don't bother. Take a picture of a delicious meal and serve your luckless customer a pile of dogs eggs.

The human body is an incredibly complex machine. No matter how much you think you know about it's functions and internal structures, there will always be something new to discover. Like these rather interesting organs...
