As per a report:

A man in China survived an unsuccessful attempt to feed himself to a pair of Bengal tigers and is being treated for depression, a Chinese newspaper reported Tuesday. According to the Chengdu Business Daily, Yang Jinhai, 27, climbed a tree and jumped into the tigers' enclosure on Sunday at the Chengdu Zoo in southwest China's Sichuan province. 

As stunned visitors watched, Yang -- who is unemployed and suffers from mental health issues, according to his brother -- "performed exaggerated movements" as he spent 20 minutes trying to tempt the tigers to eat him. "I asked them to bite me and let them eat my meat, and so I did not fight back," Yang told the paper. 

But while he was scratched and dragged by the back of his neck, the tigers declined to make a meal of him. Zoo staff tranquilised the animals so that they could rescue Yang, who sustained "16 minor wounds", the report said.

Indian origin Girl in Britain grows beard

Subscribe to My Viuz Subscribe to My Viuz in MY YAHOO! Subscribe to My Viuz in MY GOOGLE! Subscribe to My Viuz in MY MSN! Subscribe to My Viuz in MY AOL! Subscribe to My Viuz in Rojo!
As per a report:

A 23-year-old Indian-origin girl in the UK, who has a condition that causes excessive hair growth, is challenging conventional ideas of female beauty by sporting a beard and says it makes her feel more feminine. Harnaam Kaur, of Slough, Berkshire, has polycystic ovary syndrome, which can cause excessive hair growth. She was just 11 years old when a beard started to appear on her face and the hair quickly spread to her chest and arms. 

The condition made her the victim of cruel taunts at school and on the street. She even received death threats from strangers over the internet, 'The Mirror' reported. Kaur decided to stop removing her hair after being baptised as a Sikh - a religion in which it is forbidden to cut body hair. "I would never ever go back now and remove my facial hair because it's the way God made me and I'm happy with the way I am," she said. Kaur says she feels more feminine and has learned to love herself for who she is. However, it took Kaur some time to embrace her condition. In her early teens, she was so ashamed of her beard that she resorted to waxing twice a week. She also tried bleaching and shaving.

But it only made the problem worse - the hair became thicker and spread. At her lowest points she began self-harming and she even considered taking her own life. "I got bullied badly - at school I was called a 'beardo' and things like 'shemale' and 'sheman'," Kaur said. But now, Kaur said she feels more feminine than ever and chooses girly tops over baggy, high-necked jumpers. "I wear skirts, dresses and jewellery and I like to get my nails done like every other girl," she said.

As per a report:

A man from Chhattisgarh's Korba district has claimed he is 117 years old, which makes him the oldest person alive in the world. Premsai Patel, a native of Tilhapatai village under Kartala block, has claimed he was born on May 11, 1896 and his age is 117 years and 8 months. If his claims are true, Patel could be the oldest person alive, two years older than the 115-year-old Misao Okawa, and the current record holder who lives in Japan. 

To back his claim, the retired school teacher shows the Aadhaar card, a key government document which mentions his date of birth as May 11, 1896. He has witnessed four generations of his family, which comprise 50 members, including his three sons, the eldest of them being Itwari (80) followed by Mahesh and Ganeshram. Patel married again after the death of his first wife. 

 According to Mahesh, his father had no particular diet regime and he hardly fell ill. He is still very healthy and does all his work at home on his own, Mahesh said. According to Statistics Officer of Korba, Madu Sahu, pre-2005 birth and death records are not available in the district. Earlier these records were being maintained at Bilaspur district. However, the records of 1896 would not be available there also, he said. Meanwhile, Korba Chief Medical Officer P R Kumbhkar said it is possible for human beings to live for 117 or more years.

As per a report:

Hundreds of people have flocked to a small town in northern Israel to view a statue of the Virgin Mary that residents say "weeps" oil. Members of a Christian family from Tarshiha, near the Lebanon border, say they have witnessed a miracle in their living room. 

Osama Khoury said Tuesday that his wife Amira found the statue "covered with oil" recently. Amira said the statue "spoke to her" and told her not to be afraid. After a neighbor witnessed the oil, word soon spread. Parts of the statue appear to be slick with moisture, even after it is wiped off. The family says it is most striking when a "tear" seems to roll down the statue's cheek. It says some 2,000 people have come to see the statue over the last week.

As per a report:

A "happy birthday" Facebook page created by a Richland, Mich., mom after her son lamented that he had no friends to invite to his birthday party has garnered 1.6 million fans since it was posted. The mother created the Coliniseleven page on Feb. 2 for her son, Colin, who will turn 11 on March 9, MLive said. 

Reuters identified the mom as Jennifer Cunningham. Colin has a sensory processing disorder and another condition similar to Asperger's syndrome and austism that makes socializing difficult, Cunningham told WOOD-TV 8. The other kids at his school in Richland, a town of less than 1,000 near Kalamazoo, don't understand his disability and why Colin will act out, she said. "We were talking about his birthday coming up and I had mentioned it a few times and he said he didn't want a party. And I said, 'Why don't you want a party?" -- "Mom, who am I going to invite? I don't have any friends,' " Cunningham said. So Cunningham created the Facebook page, hoping some adults would wish Colin a happy birthday. They did, by the thousands. 

 The page drew 4,000 likes in the first two days and exceeded 8,600 by Sunday, WOOD-TV 8 reported. Greetings and pictures poured onto the page from as far away as Switzerland and Scotland. By the time the Daily Mail picked up the story on Monday the page was up to 13,800 likes. As of 8:40 a.m. Thursday, 1.6 million visitors had "liked" Coliniseleven. Well-wishers included the at Alpha Xi Delta sorority at Indiana University, who attached a video, the Rosenberg, Texas, Police Department, and Grant Heile, a 14-year-old from Nashville.

The pair, from Novosibirsk and Moscow filmed Adrenalin junkies Vitaliy Raskalov, 20, and Vadim Makhorov, 24, captured the dizzying bird’s eye view from the top of the Shanghai Tower after a two-hour ascent.

The pair, from Novosibirsk and Moscow filmed themselves breaking into and climbing the 2,073ft tower – twice the height of London’s Shard building. Apparently unsatisfied with the view, they then climbed the crane on top of the partially-constructed building in Shanghai’s Luijiazui district. Unbelievably, the self-styled “sky walkers” used no safety equipment on their ascent and had to wait for the cover of darkness to avoid the Chinese authorities. Mr Makhorov said, “there are a lot of guards and cameras around in the day time, so we started climbing during the night, it was easier to stay.

On Valentine Day eve, AirIndia Hostesses refused to fly

Subscribe to My Viuz Subscribe to My Viuz in MY YAHOO! Subscribe to My Viuz in MY GOOGLE! Subscribe to My Viuz in MY MSN! Subscribe to My Viuz in MY AOL! Subscribe to My Viuz in Rojo!
As per a report:

An Air India airhostess on Thursday refused to fly on the Delhi-Sydney flight as per her duty schedule and told the airline she was well enough only to zip off to some place nearby like Dubai. The doctor, though, found her fit and a livid airline management suspended her. The airline is perplexed as the airhostess came from Mumbai to operate the Delhi-Sydney flight but chose not to go on it at the last minute.

Friday was Valentine's Day and the airline does not know why she was so keen on going to Dubai instead of Australia, where she was rostered to fly to. Two of her colleagues also refused to operate the same flight (AI 302) and one more was nowhere to be seen at the airport. As a result, the flight with almost 200 passengers was delayed by over two hours. Ironically, for once the Dreamliner that was to operate on this route did not have snags and it was crew shortage that caused the delay as it could take off only after AI managed to get alternate airhostesses.

Mobile Phone Saves Man from Tigress

Subscribe to My Viuz Subscribe to My Viuz in MY YAHOO! Subscribe to My Viuz in MY GOOGLE! Subscribe to My Viuz in MY MSN! Subscribe to My Viuz in MY AOL! Subscribe to My Viuz in Rojo!
As per a TOI report:

The 50-something resident of the Adivasi-dominated Baihar village in Balaghat district recently had a close encounter with death. He spent an agonizing three hours up on a tree with a furious tigress waiting below. Just when he thought it was all over, the phone came to his rescue.

"I realized that though I did not have a gun, the phone in my hand could be an equally potent weapon," says Rangdale. He sent out a telephonic SOS to his friends and the search party that arrived soon after managed to scare the tiger away. Five days later, the little handset has joined the resident deities who sit in the pooja alcove of the Rangdale household. 

He will not part with his lucky phone at any price, he says. Baihar is a heavily tiger-infested territory, barely 10 km off the Kanha national park, and escaping the jaws of a predator in these parts involves a huge amount of luck.

Sinkhole Swallows Family Car in England

Subscribe to My Viuz Subscribe to My Viuz in MY YAHOO! Subscribe to My Viuz in MY GOOGLE! Subscribe to My Viuz in MY MSN! Subscribe to My Viuz in MY AOL! Subscribe to My Viuz in Rojo!
As per a report:

A 30ft deep sinkhole has opened up in the driveway of a house, swallowing up a car. Firefighters were called to the property in High Wycombe, Buckinghamshire, on Sunday morning where they spent an hour cordoning off the area and giving safety advice. No-one was inside the parked Volkswagen Lupo when the 15ft wide crater formed, but there are concerns regarding the stability of the house, which is only a foot away. 

 A Buckinghamshire Fire and Rescue Service spokesman said the incident had been handed over to building control at Wycombe District Council. High Wycombe is built on chalk, which Paul Beetham, a lecturer in civil engineering at Nottingham Trent University, says may explain why the phenomenon occurred in the area. "Areas underlain by chalk may contain natural voids or caves, which formed over many thousands of years as groundwater passed through and dissolved the chalk," Mr Beetham said.

Man to be Buried atop Motorcycle

Subscribe to My Viuz Subscribe to My Viuz in MY YAHOO! Subscribe to My Viuz in MY GOOGLE! Subscribe to My Viuz in MY MSN! Subscribe to My Viuz in MY AOL! Subscribe to My Viuz in Rojo!
As per a report:

MECHANICSBURG — Billy Standley started planning to be buried astride his 1967 motorcycle about 18 years ago. His family carried out his wish Friday with a large Plexiglas casket. As far back as his family can remember, Standley said he was going to be buried astride his Harley Davidson Electra Glide. They said the motorcycle helped him retain his sense of adventure after he settled down to raise four children in Mechanicsburg — quite a compromise for the man who made his start at the tender age of 13 as a ranch hand and rodeo rider.

“He was gruff, but his heart was as big as all outdoors,” said his daughter, Dorothy Brown. Standley began making the burial plans, because when he died, he didn’t just want to ride to heaven, he wanted the whole world to see him do it in a see-through coffin. This required a lot of preparation, and even more gumption.

Minister's Stolen Buffaloes found, 3 Cops Punished

Subscribe to My Viuz Subscribe to My Viuz in MY YAHOO! Subscribe to My Viuz in MY GOOGLE! Subscribe to My Viuz in MY MSN! Subscribe to My Viuz in MY AOL! Subscribe to My Viuz in Rojo!
As per a report:

Seven buffaloes robbed from powerful Uttar Pradesh minister Azam Khan's home, which had scores of policemen on their toes over the weekend, have been found. Three cops have been removed for 'dereliction of duty', but Mr Khan blames the media for making too much out of the case of the missing buffaloes. "Is this news? I thank media for making it news," he scoffed, but didn't deny. 

The buffaloes were stolen from the minister's well-protected farmhouse late on Friday. The alleged robbers had cut open thick iron chains to take away the animals. Led by the Superintendent of Police, Sadhna Goswami, cops across the district spread out in a massive buffalo hunt, combed fields and took sniffer dogs along to track down the animals. 

The distraught minister reportedly had CCTV footage of slaughterhouses scanned. To everyone's general relief, the buffaloes were finally all found on Sunday, in different areas. Sources say the police are hoping that the minister will withdraw his case.

Police Chase 3,000 Escaped Chickens On Road

Subscribe to My Viuz Subscribe to My Viuz in MY YAHOO! Subscribe to My Viuz in MY GOOGLE! Subscribe to My Viuz in MY MSN! Subscribe to My Viuz in MY AOL! Subscribe to My Viuz in Rojo!
As per a report:

Chinese transport police found themselves faced with the unenviable task of catching 3,000 escaped chickens after the lorry they were being transported in overturned on a major road.Traffic police in the Guizhou Province had to shut the road to all other vehicles and catch the animals, most of which had escaped from their pens after the vehicle swerved while driving through dense fog and tipped over, releasing the birds.  
Chinese policeman were then forced to chase the fowl through nearby bushes after they ran off the motorway and into the surrounding overgrowth. They were filmed creeping up on the animals before trying to grab them and force them back into their cages. But even the best attempts of exasperated police proved rather futile however, and they were only able to round up around 900 of the 3,000 chickens. The rest managed to evade capture and make a break for it, and now presumably continue to live in the wild.

As per a report:

A 16-year-old Texas girl who plummeted more than 3,000 feet to the ground in an Oklahoma skydiving accident survived and is recovering from her many injuries, a doctor said Tuesday. Dr. Jeffrey Bender, a trauma surgeon at OU Medical Center who treated Makenzie Wethington when she was flown Saturday from a skydiving school in Chickasha, said the girl hurt her liver and broke her pelvis, lumbar spine in her lower back, a shoulder blade and several ribs. 

She also has a broken tooth. "I don't know the particulars of the accident as I wasn't there. But if she truly fell 3,000 feet, I have no idea how she survived," Bender said at a news conference at the hospital, where the girl's parents also spoke to reporters. Not only did she survive, but she was in good condition Tuesday, Bender said, and was expected to leave the intensive care unit. Still, she has a long recovery ahead. Bender said it will be several weeks before she can bear any weight. The girl's parents agreed to let her perform the jump, but her father, Joe Wethington, now says the skydiving company shouldn't have allowed it.

Mr Poole, who was housesitting for his parents Josie and Tony Poole while they were on holiday, said the noise was so loud he thought a plane had hit the house. "I was incredibly lucky the car didn't hit me as I had been cooking in the kitchen just one minute before," he said. "I was sitting in the lounge and had just started eating when I heard lots of loud bangs, one after the other. It was so loud I thought a plane had crashed into the house.

As per a report:

A herd of dairy cows nearly lifted the roof off their barn in central Germany when methane released by the animals caused an explosion. Police in Hesse state said in a statement that a static electric charge apparently triggered the detonation, and a spurt of flame, on Monday at a farm in Rasdorf. 

The roof was slightly damaged and one cow suffered light burns - no-one was hurt. Police say 90 cows are kept in the shed and it wasn't clear why quantities of methane had built up. Bovine belching and flatulence releases large quantities of the gas.
