An Australian man built up so much static electricity in his clothes as he walked that he burned carpets, melted plastic and sparked a mass evacuation.

Frank Clewer, of the western Victorian city of Warrnambool, was wearing a synthetic nylon jacket and a woollen shirt when he went for a job interview.

As he walked into the building, the carpet ignited from the 40,000 volts of static electricity that had built up.

"It sounded almost like a firecracker or something like that," he said.

"Within about five minutes, the carpet started to erupt," he told Australian radio.

Only in America could you get a breakfast containing 231% of your recommended daily cholesterol intake. The Hungryman breakfast has eggs, sausages, bacon, pancakes, and something called home-fries, which I think are like the hash browns you get from littlewoods. This turd on a plate contains 1030 Calories, 21g saturated fat (104% RDA), 630mg Cholesterol (231% RDA) and 2090mg Sodium (87% RDA).

There aren't many people who could get away with eating this, and live to tell the story, if you're already a 400 pound monster truck, you may as well throw caution to the wind and chow down. Fill your bowl full of jelly with a tray full of dead animals and chicken miscarriages. But for people who can safely walk on the second floor? You may wanna stick to the Pop Tarts.

A Chinese pensioner can lift up to 14 bricks with a 'horn' that's grown on his forehead. Wang Ying, 73, has been practicing Kung Fu, especially the study of Qi, since he was just eight-years-old, but his studies took a new direction after a 5cm long tumour grew on his forehead.

I'm sure they could do something about this. Maybe a prosthetic ballsack?

Scientists in the US have re-animated canines after several hours of clinical death. They hope to learn more about inducing suspended animation in humans.

The idea is that churches will buy the GodPod in bulk and then distribute them.

PARIS - A Frenchman lost in a labyrinth of disused mushroom caves said he had survived 35 days by eating rotten wood and clay, after being rescued only thanks to a teachers' strike.

Jean-Luc Josuat-Verges, 48, told French newspapers he had gone to the deserted caves at Madiran in the Pyrenees in December seeking isolation during a spell of depression which had left him considering suicide.

While wandering through the cave network the father-of-two's flashlight stopped working, and he was unable to find his way out.

His abandoned car was found 35 days later by three children who were not at school because their teachers were on strike. The children alerted police who rescued Josuat-Verges from the caves. French media said he had lost 40 lb. and was weak.

BERLIN (Reuters) - German police detained a naked 25-year-old woman and her 23-year-old partner who were engaged in sexual intercourse on the pavement in the middle of a busy shopping district, police said Saturday.

Police in the western town of Duelmen said the couple were spotted by pedestrians late Friday morning having intercourse. Pedestrians in the town of 40,000 called police, but the couple initially ignored police orders to stop.

“The naked couple continued their passion-filled activity on the cold asphalt,” a police spokesman said. “They finally followed police instructions to stop on the third warning.”

The spokesman said the two face a 100-euro ($125) fine each for disturbing the peace.

A drunken driver hit a telephone pole support wire that decapitated his passenger. He then drove 12 miles home and slept in his bloody clothes, police said, leaving the headless body in his truck.

A neighbor discovered Daniel Brohm's headless corpse in the truck on sunday morning in John Kemper Hutcherson's driveway and called authorities. Officers said they found Hutcherson asleep inside his home, visibly drunk and his clothes bloody, and later found Brohm's severed head at the crash site.

“It's hard for one to imagine that you would drive miles from a crash site to your home, turning in various directions, and yet not know what has happened to a passenger sitting next to you,” A spokesman said.

Brohm, 23, apparently was leaning out of the window when Hutcherson hit the support wire about a mile and a half from the bar, but police did not know why.

IN FRONT OF THE MONITOR– No one is looking forward to the release of Doom III more than Greg Tanner. Greg, a 27-year-old computer gamer, intends to quit his job, sell his car, and break-up with his girlfriend when id Software's new first-person action game is released.

Doom III is anticipated to test the strength of many relationships.Greg's reasoning is sound. He doesn't want to be burdened with real-life issues, which would only distract him from his computer-gaming goals.

“I worked hard to earn enough money to pay for the computer hardware I'll need to play [Doom III] effectively,” said Greg. “I've already started severing contact with casual friends, I've disconnected my phone, and I've purchased enough sustenance (frozen burritos, cheez puffs, and no-name cola) to last me six months. If the game is more popular than anticipated, or an add-on pack is released, I've scheduled some downtime to make a Costco run if necessary.”
