World?s Smallest Pony

Toy horses are usually pink and plastic - and aimed at young girls. But this little pony is 100 per cent natural - and ready to make friends with anyone her size. Born ten days ago at a stud in the southern state of Victoria, Australia, the 15in miniature horse - which is yet to be named - has already formed a bond with Sam Leith, 12.

Moller M400 Skycar

The Moller M400 Skycar is a four-seat craft which can unfold its wings in seconds and then soar through the air at up to 600kph (375mph) for a distance of 1,200km (750 miles). It is designed to be far simpler to fly than a helicopter and it boasts that its fuel consumption is lower than that of a Land Rover or Porsche.
The Skycar has cost its Californian developers a reported $200 million and is set to retail for $1 million when it goes on sale in 2012.

Britain's Smallest Horse

A pony so tiny her owner can pick her up in her arms is laying claim to the title of Britain?s smallest horse. Lucy the four-year-old Shetland pony is just 19.5 inches tall and weighs around 100 pounds.

Her owner, Sandra Ponder, 63, who runs a veterinary surgery near St Albans, Herts, owns 14 miniature ponies in total. Lucy is still dwarfed by the group. Her ?largest? pet pony measures around 34 inches.

But the tiny pony loves galloping around the paddock with the larger horses in the stable. Lucy lives in a specially made stable that is so small it looks more like a children?s wendy house.

Dog Embedded Into Car Grill

Few living things can survive being hit by speeding cars at 70mph and left for dead. But this dog is clearly a special case?
In an amazing twist of fate, the car hit the dog so hard - at 70mph - that he was embedded in the grill under the hood of the Peugeot 207. There he managed to cling on until the car eventually stopped 15 miles later.

New Testicle Eating Champion Crowned

It could only be the annual Shepherd?s Shemozzle in the small town of Hunterville in New Zealand, where men are men and men eat bulls? testicles. As part of the competition, punters had to bite into the balls and carry them in their mouths for 50m.

Once that feat was accomplished they had to scoff some dry weetabix and down a raw egg. In a rare respite they then got to wash the lot down with a can of beer.

Unfortunately if the beer was from Hunterville it was probably rubbish. Winner Josh Masters looked on the bright side when asked about the taste of testies. ?Best of all, they weren?t connected to anything.?

Human-like Robot

Scientists have created the first humanoid robot that can mimic the facial expressions and lip movements of a human being. Jules - a disembodied androgynous robotic head - can automatically copy the movements, which are picked up by a video camera and mapped on to the tiny electronic motors in his skin. It can grin and grimace, furrow its brow and ?speak? as his software translates real expressions observed through video camera eyes.

Giant Teddy Bear For Kids

This is the largest plush teddy bear available. Made by Gund, purveyors of fine plush animals for 110 years, the giant bruin is covered in washable velvety-soft 100% non-toxic, polyester fur. Its immense bulk is concentrated in its torso, provided by 35 pounds of lofty polyester fill, giving it a chubby appearance with floppy arms and legs. It has warm, molded plastic eyes that console even the poutiest dispositions a child may produce; eyes exceed pull tests of up to 20 lbs. The seams provide long-lasting durability, even after hundreds of hugs.

Truck Versus 7200V Power Line

The story here goes that a driver securing his load of timber outside Jackson, TN tossed a cable over his trailer not paying attention to the power lines looming over his rig. Of course, he caught one, sending 7200 volts coursing through the entire affair. The resulting shitstorm set the truck and the load of lumber ablaze almost immediately, leaving behind a dumbstruck driver who?s lucky as hell to be alive.

Hand-made Lamborghini Built In Basement

Seventeen years ago, Ken Imhoff watched Cannonball Run and fell so much in love with the Lamborghini Countach in the film, he hand-built his own, in his basement ? It took him 10 years to complete the project. Ken designed and fabricated his own tig-welded frame, installed a thoroughly massaged 351 cubic inch V8 with a ZF-25 5-speed transmission, hand-formed the aluminum body over a meticulously measured and accurate body form, and finished it all off in a beautiful metallic gray.

Well, 70-year-old Henry Raskin of Niles, Illinois was pretty angry at the ticket he received, so angry in fact that he intended to speed away from the cop. Except his car was in reverse.

Record Fish Caught On Toy Rod

A North Carolina man has just set a new state record for largest catfish, which he caught ? with his granddaughter?s pink Barbie rod and reel! David Hayes doesn?t usually fish with a pink Barbie rod and reel, but when his 3-year-old granddaughter Alyssa handed him her fishing pole, he used it to haul in a state record channel catfish.

?She said, ?Papa, I gotta go potty. Hold my fishing rod,?? Hayes said. ?She wasn?t in the house a few seconds when the catfish took off with the bait.? The catfish weighed 21 pounds, 1 ounce, which has been certified as a state record by the N.C. Wildlife Resources Commission.
