Massive Robot Dog Walks, Breaths Fire
The dudes at the Mutoid Waste Company love them some scrap metal. Larry is their latest creation to crawl out of the gates of the workshop and onto the busy streets of London, breathing fire with each step forward.
He’s made entirely from scrap and sports a Citroen 2CV engine. Larry can walk on its front two legs, but has two tires in place of hind legs. It took only four weeks to build. For the eyes, Larry used a radar detecting device from an airplane scrapyard. See him in action below.

Este si es raro
Todo hemos visto aunque sea en la television gemelos "siameses" pero esto es mas inusual de lo que acostumbramos a ver.
Abigail y Brittany Hensel son dos gemelas siamesas que nacieron el 7 de marzo 1990 en un pueblecito de Estados Unidos. Ambas son fruto de un mismo óvulo que por alguna extraña razón no llegó a dividirse, lo que habría dado lugar a mellizas idénticas. De cada 50.000 gemelos se da el caso de un niño que nace unido por alguna parte del cuerpo a su hermano (siameses), y de éstos, hasta la fecha, sólo 500 han sobrevivido al primer año. El caso de Abby y Britty es uno de los menos frecuentes, ya que además son gemelas bicéfalas. En toda la historia de la medicina sólo se han registrado cuatro casos de gemelos con un sólo tronco y un par de piernas.
Cada una de las hermanas Hensel tiene su propio corazón y estómago, si bien comparten tres pulmones. La columna dorsal de ambas se une a la altura de la pelvis, de modo que de la cintura para abajo son una sola persona. Cada una tiene sensibilidad y control de sus extremidades y la parte del torso que le corresponde: si se les hace cosquillas en el lado derecho sólo se ríe Abby. A los 4 meses de vida les extirparon un tercer brazo deforme (que se encontraba entre sus dos cabezas). Por lo demás tienen 2 pechos, un sólo sistema circulatorio (si toman medicamentos les afecta a ambas), un hígado, dos estómagos, tres riñones y un único sistema reproductivo.
Estas pueden aplaudir, correr y caminar bien coordinado como si fuese una sola persona, pero los dos cerebros son los que los mueve.

PAMPLONA!!!!
Un video de una de las celebraciones mas estupidas y
suicidas del planeta, Los San Fermines oh la corrida de
toros de Pamplona:
Los Sanfermines son una fiesta en honor a San Fermín que se celebra anualmente en Pamplona, capital de la Comunidad Foral de Navarra, al norte de España.
Los festejos comienzan con el lanzamiento del txupinazo o chupinazo (cohete) desde el balcón del Ayuntamiento de Pamplona a las 12 del mediodía del 6 de julio y terminan a las 24h del 14 de julio con el "Pobre de mí", una canción de despedida.
Una de las actividades más famosas de los Sanfermines es el “Encierro”, que consiste en una carrera de unos 800 metros delante de los toros y que culmina en la plaza de toros. Los encierros tienen lugar todos los días entre el 7 y el 14 de julio y comienzan a las ocho de la mañana, con una duración promedio de entre dos y tres minutos
Año tras año este mazo de soquetes se arriesga pendejamente
a morir corneado por un toro, pero na, aparentemente hay gente
que quiere morir temprano.
Un ejemplo es este video donde las cosas salieron... MAL!!!

TEMPLO DE LO TIGUERE DE TAILANDIA
Unos monjes de tailandia criaron una hembra que tuvo cachorros y aceptaban los cachorros huerfanos que eran donados al templo, ahora lo Matatane monje granuses tienen 34 tigres en el templo como si fueran sus hijos.
esto demuestra que cualquier animal puede ser domesticado.

Bueno esos tipos cuando desarrollan una tecnica la perfeccionan, como aguantar kajetaso en las pelotas o elevar la temperatura corporal cuando quieren, y yo no podria descartar que un tiguere le vuele arriba pero tampoco puedo asegurar que sea asi, cuando suceda lo compruebo, hasta ahora no a sucedido.
Ps. Si me llevara de suponer hubiera creido todas las supocisiones que dicen en la tertulia y tendria una enciclopedia de sica en el caco.

EL RECORD DE MAS TIEMPO SIN COMER, 94 DIAS!!!!!!
The Guinness Book of Records lists the world record in hunger strike (without forced feeding) as 94 days, which was set from August 11 to November 12, 1920 by John and Peter Crowley, Thomas Donovan, Michael Burke, Michael O'Reilly, Christopher Upton, John Power, Joseph Kenny and Seán Hennessy at the prison of Cork. Arthur Griffith called off the strikes after the deaths of MacSwiney, Murphy and Fitzgerald.

Stunts suicidas!
Forget bikes, or cars or lorries. When stuntman Doug Danger dices with death, he goes large - the 160ft wingspan of a passenger jet, to be precise. And he makes it look easy, reaching the pre-calculated speed of 73mph before launching himself off a 120ft narrow ramp, straight up and over the parked plane
For escape artist Rick Meisel to get clean away he must negotiate his way out of six pairs of handcuffs and two leg irons, while trying not to drown in a soap-filled, spinning, washing machine. And he takes his 'art' very seriously. He has had himself surgically altered in order to fit better into the machine
Despite the shattering impact - the equivalent of hitting a brick wall at 120mph - both crash drivers walked away uninjured before a crowd of 55,000 at the Astrodome in Houston, Texas. They owe their lives to incredibly strong strapping, special crash protectors, and a good dose of luck
Dennis Pinto from North Carolina knew that powering a motorbike at 60mph into the side of a parked van would send him pleasingly airborne. But he wanted a bit more excitement than that. So he popped on a flame-retardant outfit and set himself on fire. Amazingly, he landed on a pile of cardboard boxes, unhurt
Granny Mary Ella McLivain, 52, wears just a sun dress instead of protective harnesses as she strides across the wing of a biplane, 1,000ft in the air above Vancouver. Why? She was a secretary, but was tired of being deskbound
John Richmond claims to have shot his brother Ken more than 100 times: in the chest, face and on top of his head. Here, he has another pop at him - from 25ft, aiming not for Ken, but for the watermelon on his head and knowing that a quarter of an inch off target will mean death. Happily, both live to see another day
A truck alone wasn't enough to guarantee Strongman Tom Owen a proper work-out. So he insisted it was loaded with 20 children, before he allowed it to park on his stomach. The result? A thumbs up for the crowd minutes after, then a trip to hospital with a couple of broken ribs and internal bleeding
As world records go, being dragged along a pavement at 236mph by a 14,000-horsepower jet-car for a quarter of a mile isn't one most of us are likely to challenge. But stuntmen Reno Jaton was delighted with his achievement, despite being a little singed by flames by the end of his ordeal
It's not the usual school run - flying 109ft, over 15 motorcycles and through a giant fireball before crashing to earth. But driver Steve Hudis was delighted to break a world record in his yellow bus at this stunt filmed in Las Vegas. Oh yes, and there were no children on board

Amphicoelias
Amphicoelias (del gr. "caracter hueco en ambos lados") fue un género de dinosaurios saurópodos diplodócidos, que vivieron a finales del Jurásico, hace aproximadamente 150 y 147 millones de años, en el Kimeridgiano y el Titoniano, en lo que hoy es Norteamérica. Basados en la descripción del único fósil de un A. fragillimus este debió haber sido el mas largo de los vertebrados terrestres con entre 40 y 60 metros de largo y una masa de alrededor de 135 toneladas rivalizando con el animal mas grande conocido, la ballena azul. Sin embargo debido a que los huesos se han perdido y los estudios se realizaron en 1870, solo quedan los dibujos del cuaderno de campo de quien lo describiera.

Fue un disparo jodon a mi entender, segun tengo
entendido los restos del arma destruida ahora son
parte de un recordatorio trofeo en la jefatura del
tirador. Otra cosa:
El pana no es militar es del grupo SWAT.
Y lo jocoso del caso es que el suicida al ser esposado solo
dijo ¨What a great shot¨, creo que ni el mismo lo creia...

INCREIBLES HOYOS AZULES
Great Blue Hole, Belize
First discovered by Jacques Cousteau, one of the world’s most famous divers and marine conservationists, the Great Blue Hole in Belize is the best of the bunch, and every diver’s dream. Measuring 305m (1,000 ft) across and 123 m (400 ft) deep, the Blue Hole is almost perfectly circular and can be found in Lighthouse Reef Atoll, about 60 miles from Belize City.
Dean’s Blue Hole, Bahamas
One of the deepest blue holes at 663ft deep, Dean’s is quite different from the previous two in that it widens to a 100 m cavern at about 20 m down. It is named after the family who own the land nearby and is another popular dive spot.
The Vertical Blue 2008 free-diving competition was held here in April, when 25 national records and 5 world records were broken, and just the year before free-diver William Trubridge from New Zealand shattered the free-diving world record reaching lung-squishing depth of 84m, without the use of fins.
The Blue Hole, Gozo
Not clearly as visible from the surface, the mouth to Malta’s Blue Hole starts at 7 m deep, and is the most popular dive site on the islands.
Located within the blue hole is a cave at 15 m below where shoals of tuna, groupers and barracuda are often found hovering by the large boulders and rocks. Divers can swim through a short tunnel, or chimney, to get to a different area within the hole which has great coral gardens and reefs teeming with marine life, which is quite amazing considering how fished out many parts of the Mediterranean are.
The Blue Cave, Korcula
Just off the coast of Korcula, one of Croatia’s biggest islands you’ll find Modra Spilja (the Blue Cave). Accessible only by boat, the blue hole is entered at 9 m below the surface of the waves and reaches a depth of 35 m, a baby compared to some other blue holes. But this means it is more easily lit up buy the sun’s rays, making visibility easier and the dive all the more pleasant. Marine life, sponges and corals line the walls, along with giant red and yellow gorgonias, or sea fans, making it one of Croatia’s top dive spots.

Round trip with Endeavour
In the 16th night landing at NASA's Kennedy Space Center, space shuttle Endeavour approaches Runway 15 to end the STS-123 mission on March 26th, 2008 - a 16-day flight to the International Space Station. The mission completed nearly 6.6 million miles. The STS-123 mission had delivered the first segment of the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency's Kibo laboratory and the Canadian Space Agency's two-armed robotic system, known as Dextre. Endeavour will soon be transported to the Orbiter Processing Facility to ready it for its next mission, STS-126. (NASA/Tom Joseph)

Inside Orbiter Processing Facility 2 at NASA's Kennedy Space Center, a United Space Alliance technician installs Boeing Replacement Insulation 18, or BRI-18, tile on space shuttle Endeavour during processing activities on July 19th, 2008. BRI-18 is the strongest material used for thermal insulation on the orbiters and, when coated to produce toughened unipiece fibrous insulation, provides a tile with extremely high-impact resistance. It is replacing other tiles on areas of the vehicle where impact risk is high, such as the landing gear doors, the wing leading edge and the external tank doors. (NASA/Jack Pfaller) #
In Orbiter Processing Facility 2 at NASA's Kennedy Space Center, STS-126 Commander Chris Ferguson is seen in the mid-deck of space shuttle Endeavour during inspection of hardware on August 1st, 2008. Members of space shuttle Endeavour's STS-126 crew are at Kennedy to participate in a crew equipment interface test, or CEIT. The CEIT provides experience handling tools, equipment and hardware they will use on the mission. Endeavour will deliver a multi-purpose logistics module to the International Space Station on the STS-126 mission. Launch is targeted for Nov. 10.(NASA/Kim Shiflett) #
Workers accompany space shuttle Endeavour as it rolls toward the Vehicle Assembly Building at NASA's Kennedy Space Center on September 11th, 2008. In the VAB, Endeavour will be attached to its external fuel tank and twin solid rocket boosters. After additional preparations are made, the shuttle will be rolled out to Launch Pad 39B. Endeavour was to serve as the backup shuttle, if needed for rescue, for space shuttle Atlantis' STS-125 mission to NASA's Hubble Space Telescope targeted for October (mission later postponed until 2009). (NASA/Troy Cryder) #
Space shuttle Endeavour is raised off the orbiter transporter by an overhead crane in the transfer aisle of the Vehicle Assembly Building at NASA's Kennedy Space Center on September 11th, 2008. The shuttle will be lifted into high bay 1 for mating with its external fuel tank and solid rocket boosters. After additional preparations are made, the shuttle will be rolled out to Launch Pad 39B.

The space shuttle Endeavour, fresh from the STS-126 mission and mounted atop its modified Boeing 747 carrier aircraft, flies over California's Mojave Desert on a three-day trip back to the Kennedy Space Center in Florida on Wednesday Dec. 10, 2008. NASA officials said Wednesday Dec. 17, 2008 that it is looking for ideas on where and how best to display its space shuttles once they stop flying in a few years. Beware: NASA estimates it will cost about $42 million to get each shuttle ready and get it where it needs to go, and the final tab could end up much more. The estimate includes $6 million to ferry the spaceship atop a modified jumbo jet to the closest major airport. (AP Photo/NASA) #

In the 16th night landing at NASA's Kennedy Space Center, space shuttle Endeavour approaches Runway 15 to end the STS-123 mission on March 26th, 2008 - a 16-day flight to the International Space Station. The mission completed nearly 6.6 million miles. The STS-123 mission had delivered the first segment of the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency's Kibo laboratory and the Canadian Space Agency's two-armed robotic system, known as Dextre. Endeavour will soon be transported to the Orbiter Processing Facility to ready it for its next mission, STS-126. (NASA/Tom Joseph)

Inside Orbiter Processing Facility 2 at NASA's Kennedy Space Center, a United Space Alliance technician installs Boeing Replacement Insulation 18, or BRI-18, tile on space shuttle Endeavour during processing activities on July 19th, 2008. BRI-18 is the strongest material used for thermal insulation on the orbiters and, when coated to produce toughened unipiece fibrous insulation, provides a tile with extremely high-impact resistance. It is replacing other tiles on areas of the vehicle where impact risk is high, such as the landing gear doors, the wing leading edge and the external tank doors. (NASA/Jack Pfaller) #
In Orbiter Processing Facility 2 at NASA's Kennedy Space Center, STS-126 Commander Chris Ferguson is seen in the mid-deck of space shuttle Endeavour during inspection of hardware on August 1st, 2008. Members of space shuttle Endeavour's STS-126 crew are at Kennedy to participate in a crew equipment interface test, or CEIT. The CEIT provides experience handling tools, equipment and hardware they will use on the mission. Endeavour will deliver a multi-purpose logistics module to the International Space Station on the STS-126 mission. Launch is targeted for Nov. 10.(NASA/Kim Shiflett) #

TOP SPACE PHOTOS OF 2008
Venus, Jupiter, Moon Smile on Earth
The heavens smiled down on Earth December 1 in National Geographic News's most viewed space photo of 2008. The celestial smiley face is the result of a planetary conjunction between Venus, Jupiter, and the moon, shown here over Manila in the Philippines.
NEW JUPITER IMAGE: Sharpest View Ever From Earth
Jupiter looks sharp in the crispest whole-planet picture of the gas giant ever shot from Earth, released in October.
The picture was taken using a computer-assisted process that adjusts for distortions caused by Earth's atmosphere, allowing a ground-based telescope in Chile to snap shots rivaling those taken from space, astronomers said.
In Jupiter's case, the result shows features as small as 180 miles (300 kilometers) across.
New Picture of the Pinwheel Galaxy
An image released by NASA in April shows baby stars taking shape in the Southern Pinwheel galaxy.
Embryonic stars were found to be growing in the galaxy's spindly arms (shown in red), rather than in its bright heart.
Scientists at the time described the find as "absolutely stunning," because it was believed that such outlying sections of galaxies lacked the necessary materials for star formation.
New Supernova "Gumball" Picture
The remnant of a supernova, first seen from Earth more than a thousand years ago, hangs like a gumball in a composite image released by NASA in June.
The blast wave from the stellar explosion is still traveling at about 6 million miles (9.6 million kilometers) an hour, heating gases along its path that emit radiation as visible light.
Black Hole Seen in Closest Look Ever
Ground-based radio telescopes in Hawaii, Arizona, and California combined forces to examine the supermassive black hole at the center of the Milky Way.
Although by definition we can't see a black hole directly, we can see the bright region of radio emissions known as Sagittarius A* that's thought to be either a disk of matter swirling toward the black hole, or a high-speed jet of matter being ejected from it.
Astronomers who released the image in September noted that further study of Sagittarius A* should help us understand "what happens as matter is drawn near to the black hole and disappears forever."
First Picture of Alien Planet Orbiting Sunlike Star?
A faint dot above a blazing inferno is possibly the first direct view of a planet outside our solar system orbiting a sunlike star.
The infrared image, taken by the Gemini Observatory in Hawaii, was released in September. At the time astronomers weren't sure whether the body was a planet or a planetlike object, and it remains to be seen if it is truly orbiting the star.
Two months later independent teams announced the first infrared image of an alien multiplanet system, taken using a pair of ground-based telescopes, as well as the first visible-light picture of an extrasolar planet, snapped by the Hubble Space Telescope.
