Many of us think that our job is a big headache, But it’s not for the stuntman Li Xin. 47 year old Li Xin from China spends his whole day practicing to balance his head on a spike and he has been doing this from last 20 years.

His weight is 66kg and he manages to balance the total body up side down on his skull. Li Xin can do this stunt for up to 10 seconds, as we all know many people can manage to balance upside down but on headstand not on spike.

Due to this stunt he is left with a small indentation on his skull.

These photos were taken at an event where Li Xin was showing his unique skill in Nanning, China.

1. Lions, Oh My!

Tippi Hedren, known as the first queen of scream for her role in Hitchcock’s The Birds and later Marnie, has a clear and unequivocal love for lions.

Though it’s disputed that she actually owned any lions—it is said by some that she owned several—actress Tippi produced a $17 million film about them titled Roar, which earned only $2 million worldwide, and resulted in injuries sustained by Tippi, husband Hedren, daughter Melanie Griffin, and director of photography Jan de Bont.

Afterwards, she established a non-profit, Roar Foundation, and Shambala Preserve, home to some 70 lions, servals, leopards, tigers and bobcats.

When Michael Jackson’s Neverland Ranch shut down, his collection of exotic cats went to Shambala Preserve. Later, Tippi says she informed the cats of Jackson’s demise. “I hope they understood,” she said.

2. A Teensy Pig

Harry Potter star Rupert Grint owns a miniature pig, also known as a teacup pig. A product of the latest U.K. fad, teacup pigs have been springing up with Brits everywhere, at little more than a foot long.

Word has it that Rupert however was ripped off in his bid to get in on the fad, and purchased a mere infant pig, which would grow to enormous portions. Only time will tell, perhaps.

3. The Badonkadonks

Celebrity Reese Witherspoon, best known for her roles in Legally Blonde, Sweet Home Alabama and Walk the Line, keeps an interesting assortment of pets—among them her prized donkeys Honky and Tonky.

Her “badonkadonks,” as she likes to call them, are not without issue though, as multiple media outlets report frequent complaints from neighbors about the noise they make.

In addition to these odd domestic mates, Reese’s pet lineup includes 3 goats, 2 pigs, 20 chickens, 3 dogs, a pony and a horse. Reese reports that her horse and donkey like to hang.

4. Pig Staying Power

George Clooney, early star of ER, and later of Ocean’s Eleven, is perhaps one of the most well-known bachelor’s on the planet. Likewise, his most famous relationship might not be with a woman, but rather, with a pig. Max, Clooney’s 300 lb.

Vietnamese pot-bellied pig, came into his life in 1988. Originally purchased for then girlfriend Kelly Preston; Preston left the pig behind when the relationship ended. For the next 18 years, Max remained a constant in Clooney’s life, with indoor accommodations at his Tudor mansion, occasional sleeping space in his bed, and regular appearances on the various sets Clooney worked.

When Max and Clooney parted, it was on death, with the ancient pig suffering from arthritis and partial blindness. Reportedly, Clooney jokes often that Max was the longest relationship he ever had.

5. Bubbles…Of Course

Michael Jackson’s common pet chimpanzee Bubbles was undoubtedly the most famous domesticated animal on the planet in the 80s.

Bubbles was reported to have command of the toilet, the usage of cutlery, common chores such as cleaning and more. Bubbles and Michael Jackson could often be seen in public wearing matching outfits, including a now infamous visit to Japan, where the eccentric celebrity brought Bubbles to tea with a local mayor.

Over the years, Jackson kept other chimps in addition to Bubbles, though none would garner the notoriety of his clear favorite. Despite the years however, Jackson would be forced to give up Bubbles when he eventually slid into repeated acts of aggression.

It is reported that Bubbles attempted suicide in a California animal sanctuary. Today, Bubbles lives at the Center for Great Apes in Wauchula, Florida, where Latoya Jackson is said to have visited him.

Prior to Michael Jackson’s death, he admitted that he thought of Bubbles as is first child, prompting Latoya Jackson to state that she hoped Michael’s other children would keep in touch with their stepbrother Bubbles after their father’s untimely death.

6. A Cage and an Octopus

Nicolas Cage’s off-kilter spending habits have led to financial troubles in the past. Among his most lambasted purchases are that of 2 islands, numerous yachts, a jet, a castle and a few exotic pets. Said pets included king cobras Sheba and Moby and an octopus Cage believed will help him with his acting.

In tough economic times, it’s reported that Cage had to part with his trusty yet tentacled friend.

7. Endangered and Illegal

Celebrity socialite Paris Hilton, most famous perhaps for being famous, is said to have kept a pet kinkajou for some time. Kinkajous, often known as honey bears, are an endangered rainforest mammal from South and Central America. Paris, who named her kinkajou Baby Luv, failed to give the pet up after numerous warnings that possession of it in the United States was illegal.

In addition, animal rights activists protested her ownership of the pet for obvious reasons. It was only when Baby Luv bit her on the arm that she saw fit to dispose of him.

Celebrities have long been associated with an extra dose of eccentricity.

Odd pets are just one more way of expressing said…uniqueness. While most can’t understand how a celeb might allow a pig or chimp near the good china, Hollywood’s elite certainly understands. Whether it’s lions that maul or an octopus to practice voice work, one things for sure: celebrities sure have the weirdest pets.

Gadget Shoes

Why would you need to use a controller to change the channel or turn up the volume on the television? Just take of your shoes and click some buttons. Even LED lights are there to color-coordinate your needed buttons.

Toeless Shoes

Shoes are made for a single purpose: to protect your feet while walking. But why do that when these shoes are more fashionable? Especially when you just get a great pedicure and want to show it off. It’s okay your feet get dirty, look how great the shoes compliment your toes.

Legging Shoes

There are more ways than one to, as they say, kill two birds with one stone, and these shoes are perfect. There are no need for pants AND shoes, just wear them together and enjoy some warm, albeit difficult to put on, shoes.

Car Shoes

Bring your vroom vroom with you wherever you go. These are gold and shiny and with wheels that make you think you are as fast as lightening. Why not enjoy the squeak beneath your feet?

Feet Shoes

These by far are the number one strangest pair of shoes that have been put into this article. Do you want to wear someone else’s feet for feeted shoes? Well, here you are. That’s all that can be said.

So, here are the five shoes that deliver you the most odd ways to cover your feet or your legs or nothing at all. Shoes. What a strange thing. Well. Sometimes.

Tapeworm Diet

 
A person buys a tapeworm cyst. This usually comes from a cow. Then, the person eats it. As the tapeworm grows in the stomach, or the digestive tract, it basically absorbs calories. The tapeworm does not stay small while growing in the stomach. It can grow as large as 15 feet long. Within a week, one or two pounds can be lost. When the person reaches the desired weight loss, he or she takes an antibiotic to kill the tapeworm. This is banned in the United States … I wonder why?

Caffeine Tights

 
In today’s market, caffeine tights can be purchased. As a person wears them, his or her body heat increases. Then, the extra body heat causes the release of caffeine microcapsules, which goes into the legs and makes the person’s metabolism work harder and supposedly, starts burning fat. This causes weight loss. Well, why wouldn’t it?

Vinyl Sweat Suits

 
A vinyl sweat suit is worn which covers the body except for the hands, feet, neck and head. It increases the person’s perspiration rate and causes a lot more sweating than normal. The suit dehydrates the body, allowing water to escape through perspiration. Through this process, body fat just simply melts away. Since the suit is vinyl, all the perspiration can just be wiped away after its use. You may look a little strange if you wear it when walking down to the corner shop to buy some milk.

Unique Soaps

 
There are specialised soaps that can be bought to help a person lose weight. They contain vitamin and minerals, amongst other ingredients. These soaps are designed so that when a person uses them regularly, the soap’s ingredients get into the sub-layers of the skin. This causes the skin’s fat layers to be reduced and weight is supposedly lost. The key word here is ‘supposedly’.

Cotton Ball Diet

 
Some people think that if wool cotton balls are eaten dry or soaked in gelatine, that they will fill the stomach up without consuming any calories. They say weight loss is then achieved. Also, and what a surprise it is, digestive problems could very well be achieved.

If weight loss is desired, talking with a doctor, nutrition specialist or a personal trainer should be the first thing on a person‘s list. Just because these wacky and funny weight loss programs, clothing, soaps and diets exist, does not mean they are safe. Make logical choices to ensure the safety of your body comes first.

And if Nostradamus said it, so it happened!

An Australian woman is selling a picture of a pair of lacy black knickers and an empty condom wrapper “size small” found in her bed after her husband had an affair with another woman.

An ebay seller found this in a bunch of mixed dried fruit from the local bulk store.  It looks like a vagina right out of a anatomy text book! So there it was up for auction.

Difficult to estimate the cost of a strawberry when it is in the shape of United States of America!!

2. MIGRAINE? DON’T CARRY YOUR PAINKILLER TO MALAYSIA!

Possession of any form of narcotic drug, even a narcotic painkiller, can get you mandatory punishment including death at Malaysian customs. So if you’re taking morphine for severe, debilitating pain, best not to take it to Malaysia.

3. FORGOT TO FLUSH THE TOILET? PAY UP A FINE OR CLEAN IT!

Singapore is very strict when it comes to public cleanliness. When you use a public toilet in Singapore, you better be sure to flush it and flush it loudly. If you don’t flush it, and the maintenance person catches you, he or she can report you to the cops. Guess what? Visitor or not, you pay a fine for not flushing the toilet. Don’t want to pay the fine? Well, you can always clean the toilet for them!

4. WANT TO RIDE A SCOOTER? WEAR PROPER SHOES

If you’re on tour to the Philippines, you’ll find that riding a scooter is the best way to get from point A to point B. It’s a hot country and you might think of slipping into your little rubber thongs or sandals while riding. Just don’t. You can get ticketed for not wearing proper shoes while riding; protest and you could be arrested.

5. TOURING CAMBODIA? PUT THOSE WATER GUNS AWAY!

People in Southeast Asia celebrate New Year’s or any function with a lot of noise and color, often throwing water balloons and drenching travelers. In Cambodia, however, there’s this strange rule. Anyone seen using spraying water at others with a water gun will be fined and the guns snatched. Why? Well, some clever creature loaded a bunch of water guns with toilet water and drenched people with what-you-can-imagine, that’s why.

6. TRAVELING TO JAPAN? YOU BETTER NOT HAVE A COLD!

In Japan, the ordinary items that you buy over-the-counter in the U.S. and other countries would be considered illegal. Well, you can understand if painkillers were considered illegal, but Vicks? Apparently, Vicks contains pseudoephedrine, a known stimulant. Walk into Japan with a bottle of Vicks you’ve been rubbing on your congested chest, and you might find yourself locked in a cold cell. Good luck with that cold!

7. LEAVE YOUR DOG AT HOME WHEN YOU VISIT THE DEUTSCHLAND

The German government considers several breeds of dogs dangerous, including the mastiff, the terrier and the ridgeback. Germans are not allowed to breed or own these dogs. If you are traveling with your pet pooch, you better check if your dog’s breed figures in the list of forbidden dangerous animals. If that is the case, then you cannot stay for more than 4 weeks in Germany with that dog. Best leave Rover at home, you think?

8. IN THE MOOD FOR HALLOWEEN? NOT IN DENMARK

Keep all your passionate American cultural patriotism in the US before you head to Scandinavia! Walking around Denmark with a mask on can get you arrested, even if you are just celebrating Halloween there. If a mask can get you arrested, then you better forget the more elaborate Halloween costumes!

9. WANT MUSIC IN THE CAB? PAY FOR IT

Finnish taxi drivers are not allowed to play music in their cabs, unless they are willing to pay a copyright fee. The copyright fee is to be paid because the music is being presented to customers. So it falls on passengers to pay for the music they want to hear. Do you want to save money while traveling in Finland? Carry your iTunes with you.

10. THINK THE KING LOOKS WEIRD? SHUSH!

True democracy with its freedom of speech etcetera begins and ends with the western world. In Thailand, better not say anything negative about the reigning monarch, not even if you think he resembles Whoopi Goldberg. Whatever you say could be termed as a negative statement made against the king and you may find yourself behind bars for 15 years at least. The cops are actually authorized to investigate all complaints of Lèse-Majesté!

This Oklahoma City Building was blown away by terrorists just a few minutes after the prediction by Tana Hoy, a natural-born psychic. In 1995, Hoy was doing a live radio program in Fayetteville, NC when he predicted that a deadly terrorist attack will occur at the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building. Just 90 minutes later, a tragedy struck the building in what is known to be the second worst terrorist attack (on US Soil) to 9-11.

Using meditation to tell the stories never told before!

Edgar Cayce, also referred to as “The Sleeping Prophet,” was able to predict the start and end of World War I and II and even the death of the beloved president, John F Kennedy on one of his meditations. Cayce had an unbelievable power to put himself in a meditative state, during which he could answer questions about time, space, reincarnation, spirituality, and current and future events – all with startling accuracy!

Just how scary is it to predict one’s own death correctly!!

Mark Twain was a renowned writer and author but he made a brave prediction that he is going to die when the Halley’s comet reappears. True enough, he died in the same year (in 1910) when the said comet was seen in the sky again.

Eerie predictions of dictatorial rule come through!

And of course, who would forget Nostradamus? He claimed to have seen not only Hitler, but also Napoleon Bonapart. And though he never really named Adolf Hitler directly, he was credited for giving the background of Hitler as well as the public speaking skills of the Fuhrer.

And if Natural Disasters can be predicted, so can the “End of The World” (2012, anyone??)

Jeffrey Palmer is among the most noted psychics from Australia. He was made famous for predicting not only Hurricane Katrina in 2005, he even predicted that there would be a Tsunami in 2004 which claimed thousands of lives in different countries. He is now known for also predicting Korea’s nuclear weapon testing!
