Man ate aircraft



An inquest into the death of Brit Frederick Edwards in 1933 found 200 nails, 36 staples and 3 penknives in his stomach. But he didn’t even have half the appetite of Frenchman Michel Lotito, whose stage name was “Mr Eat All.” Michel ate 18 bicycles, 15 shopping carts, 7 TV sets, a computer, numerous razor blades and, believe it or not, one Cessna 150 light aircraft. The aircraft meal was not fast food, though; it took him two years, 1978 – 1980, to munch through the delight. He finished the shopping cart in four-and-a-half days.

On average, Lotito ate 2 lb (almost a kg) of glass and metal a day (as seen in the Mr Eat All video). His strange diets certainly was enough to get him into the Guinness Book of Records section of unusual skills. Only bananas and hard-boiled eggs made him feel sick, he said.

WHoaaaa! tindi ng tyan. magiging IRON MAN siya nyan wahaha

ayus to puro trivia..
ako din magshare para sa mga hindi pa nakakaalam po..

did you know that:

akala natin ang kayumanggi is color brown kaya nga tayo mga pinoy tinawag na ganun..
but the deeper meaning is galing sa dalawang salita "kayu" at "manggi"

kayu - fine or pino
manggi (magi o magos) - wisdom, kaalaman or karunungan

kaya nung primitive age, tinawag tayo ng mga dayuhan na nakikipagkalakalan sa atin "kayumanggi" meaning "fine wisdom" or sa tagalog "mahusay na kaalaman"

heto pa..
did you know that:

during pre-colonial period in our country, researchers found out that we also have golds and our ancestors carve them as detailed as egyptian gold carvings..mas magaling pa nga yata tayo dun..and there are some chinese articals (not exact) that tells they have found people on southern asia covered with and dressed with golds..

ang galing talaga ng pinoy..now they can be found at ayala museum..

detailing naman diyan..
workflow daw nila e CACAD muna, tapos e mamano mano..hehe

did you know that a human head weighs 8 pounds,,,(a scene from Jerry Mcguire)

hindi ko alam kung totoo,,,hehehe

malamig kung december kaya maraming sinilang sa august..hehehe

haha! coconuts can kill??? ows?

baka kasi nahulugan ng coconut.. ^_^

ano ba ibig sabihin ng fact na ito?

tama ka mam ellie..marami nababagsakan ng coconut sa ulo kaya mas marami namamatay jan kesa malapa ng pating...

pero ito.. did you know na walang parte ng coconut tree na walang hinde pwedeng pag gamitan o silbi?

at ito pa kababasa ko lang: Coconuts received the name from Portuguese explorers, the sailors of Vasco da Gama in India, who first brought them to Europe. The brown and hairy surface of coconuts reminded them of a ghost or witch called Coco. Before it was called nux indica, a name given by Marco Polo in 1280 while in Sumatra, taken from the Arabs who called it جوز هندي jawz hindī. Both names translate to "Indian nut." When coconuts arrived in England, they retained the coco name and nut was added.

* Did you know coconuts kill over 150 people each year (more than sharks)

about shark po sir,, nabasa ko lang sa shark week ng discovery

-Of the average 30 to 50 shark attacks reported each year, only 5 to 10 prove to be fatal. So while being bitten by a shark is rare, dying from a shark bite is even rarer.

-While many people fear sharks and think of them as one of the world's most aggressive and deadly animals, the chances of dying from a shark attack fall well below the chances of being killed by hornets, wasps, bees or dogs.

-As sensational as shark attacks are in newspaper headlines, the reality is that you're more likely to be bitten by another person than a shark.

-From 1580 to 2007, there were a reported 64 fatal great white shark attacks. Sharks haven't fared as well: When you count every species, millions of sharks are killed by humans every year.

-Headed to shark-filled waters? Pack your boxing gloves. Punching a shark in the nose or poking its eyes can help to fend it off during an attack. Aim for the sensitive eyes or gills — or, if your aim is off, the much bigger target of the snout. Most sharks don't want to work that hard for their food and will swim away.

-Surfers are more likely to die from drowning than from a shark attack, but it is true that great whites can be confused and intrigued by the shape of a surfboard. From beneath the surface, a great white might mistake the board's outline for that of a seal, walrus or sea lion.

-In the extremely rare event that a shark bites you, it probably won't take a second taste. In attacks on humans, sharks typically bite, hold on for a few seconds and then let go once they realize they're not tasting a sea creature.

-Shark attacks occur around California because U.S. government protection of sea mammals, like seals, sea lions and sea otters, has increased their populations off the West Coast. There's more food for sharks there, and humans just get in the way.

-While many of us have learned to fear sharks, they're the ones who should fear us. People are sharks' biggest predator. In fact, humans kill more than 73 million sharks annually.

so dont be afraid of sharks
