Unusual Road Eruption Accident in Russia Ekaterinburg



Drivers who criticize about potholes in the road may now count themselves lucky after a driver had a narrow escape when the road erupted in front of him.


Like a scene out of a Hollywood disaster movie, the road rose into the air in front of an SUV driver who was speeding up to a red light. The video, shot in Yekaterinburg, Sverdlovskaya Oblast, Russia, has been viewed more than 40,000 times online.


A dashboard camera caught the moment the road surface was shot into the air by the explosion. The video, dated Thursday, shows the car slowing down for a red light when the SUV driver overtakes on the outside, only for the van to bang into the road rubble. It erupts into three large pieces, sending a cloud of dust into the air.


A second car only missed it by moments when the driver turned right hardly seconds earlier. Experts who have seen the footage believe it was caused by an exploding gas main. Howard Robinson, chief executive of the Road Surface Treatments Association, who has seen the video, said: 'It looks like a gas main has exploded. If it was a water main we would see water gushing upwards.'


In the clip the clearly stunned SUV driver can be seen getting cautiously out of his car as the hazard lights flash. Some have speculated online that the eruption was caused by a burst underground sewer or underground air pressure. Others have joked the explosion was intentionally carried out to stop the driver running the red light. One person posted on Live Leak: 'In Russia cops don't stop you for running a light, the road does'.


Another user wrote: 'Car driver wanted to run the red light, red light did stop him immediately.' However, other views have put forward an even more melodramatic explanation. One called Strymerx asked: 'Is this a new movie of Godzilla?'

Australian Family Sets New Guinness Record with Over Half a Million Christmas Light Installation


An Australian family who put more than half a million Christmas lights on their house has claimed a world record - for the second time. Father-of-three David Richards from Canberra first won the title in 2011 with 331,038 lights, but was beaten by a family in New York who put up 346,283.



His family vowed to take regain the title this Christmas - so installed more than 31 miles of wire with 502,165 lights, glowing reindeer and loud music around their suburban home, to the frustration of some neighbors. Guinness World Records confirmed the family's charity feat has officially the most Christmas lights on a residential property.




Some of the Richards’ neighbors are very upset and haven’t spoken to the family since 2011. But most of them love the dazzle and come to visit from numerous miles away. David says, “I have always loved Christmas. Having the Christmas lights with the community coming in and sharing it is a time when you get to know people you perhaps should know better, I guess.”


Of course, putting up so many lights would mean a enormous electric bill. It comes up to about $2,200 a month, an amount that the local power company has been generous enough to donate. The Richards hosts a charity event open to the public, and the proceeds go to children’s charities that fight Sudden Infant Death Syndrome. In 2011 they had 70,000 visitors and collected about $70,000. This year David wants to up the amount to $90,000. “It actually helps a lot of families who have put up with an amazing amount of grief. That makes it all worthwhile to me,”




David lives in the suburb of Forrest with his wife Janean, 13-year-old son Aidan and daughters Caitlin, 10, and Madelyn, 6. It took them a month to put up all the lights – they started in October and worked every weekend since. Thankfully they didn’t have to physically count all the lights. Delivery records and invoices helped with that. The lights aren’t just meant for Christmas, they’re also meant to party his wife’s cousin’s wedding this Saturday.

Ranveer Singh Kisses Deepika Padukone in Public


While Deepika Padukone has always abstained from commenting on her relationship with Ranveer Singh, the boy has gone on to claim that he is in love, albeit without mentioning the name of his ladylove. We got to see his romantic side at the Hello! Hall Of Fame Awards 2013.

 Ranveer and Deepika might not be confessing their love for each other in public but the affection says it all. And their blossoming romance was once again seen at the Hello! Awards where Ranveer was snapped planting a kiss on Deepika’s cheek.


Ranveer bagged the Entertainer of the year award (male) and Deepika got the Entertainer of the year award (female). They certainly make a perfect pair and touted to be Bollywood’s hottest couple.

Stunning Hammer & Nail Portraits by David Foster



Instead of using a pen and ink, artist David Foster hammers thousands of nails onto a canvas to generate these extremely detailed portraits. Originally an architect, Foster's love for technical drawing translates perfectly into these meticulously produced arrangements. Each piece is based off of a photograph that the artist first reproduces with an ink pen. He then enlarges the drawing to use as his guide for the finished pieces.








Nail head by nail head, dot by dot, the pointillist images slowly emerge as Foster builds across the canvas. His smaller drawings average only about 5,000 nails while some of the larger pieces can comprise as many as 30,000! The artist says, "I have always been fascinated with how little information the brain needs to interpret a picture and love the easiness of a picture made up from just dots." David’s art covers a range of subjects: celebrities, animals, flowers and get this – even a hammer and nail! The level of exactness and realism in his art is a result of years of practicing and perfecting his technique.








David obviously loves what he does, going by what he tells us on his website. “The whole process thrills me, taking just a hammer and a box of nails and arranging them into an artwork. It is very tangible art and the viewer will find it hard not to touch the work,” he writes. He also insists that the best way to view his work is up close, since photographs don’t do much justice to it.

Woman Gets Platinum Jewel Implanted in Her Eye For $3,000


An eye jewelry process that is popular in Europe and L.A. is now being done for the first time in New York City, at Park Avenue Laser Vision — which inserts small platinum hearts and other shapes into people’s eyes in a method called safesight jewelry. The procedure, which has not been approved by the FDA, is about $3,000.


Lucy Luckayanko is perhaps the only New Yorker to have an eye-stud. She spent $3,000 on a one-minute procedure to have a heart-shaped piece of platinum inserted into the white of her right eyeball.


It seems doctors have done this practice several times in Europe and Los Angeles, but this was New York’s first. To perform it, Dr. Chynn first injected an anesthetic into Lucy’s eye. Then he made a minute incision to “try to divide a pocket in between the sclera (the white part) and the conjunctiva (the clear part)” of her eye. Using forceps, he placed the 3.5mm platinum stud in a drop of water on Lucy’s eye membrane. Since the stud is so small, it had to be floated into position. It was all over in a matter of minutes and Lucy went home with her new bejeweled eye soon after.


This strange cosmetic procedure was invented in 2004 by a Dutch eye surgeon. Dr. Chynn tells us it’s very safe. “It’s a very thin piece of platinum that’s designed for insertion on top of the eye, it’s not in the eye so there’s no risk of blindness or anything at all,” he said. “She could have a little bit of local bleeding. That could go away in a couple of days or couple of weeks. She could have an infection but we’ll avert that with antibiotics.”


Lucy doesn’t seem too bothered with the consequences, however. She’s just actually happy with her “really small, really tiny, really cute” eye-heart. I wonder if she knows that her cute heart isn’t even FDA approved. The American Academy of Ophthalmology is warning consumers about potential dangers. They say there isn’t “sufficient evidence to support the safety or therapeutic value of this procedure,” and that people should “avoid placing in the eye any foreign body or material that is not approved by the FDA.


A few days after the procedure, Lucy said she did not have any problems or pain with her new accessory. “50 percent of my friends are like: ‘What is it? Why do you need it oh my god are you crazy?’ But 50 percent of my friends are like: ‘Oh my god, its super cool.’” She could even swap it with something else when she gets bored of the heart. Each swap costs $1,000. Lucy thinks her eye is now going to be a “conversation maker.” I find this bizarre; if I wanted to make conversation, I’d just stick to a comment on the weather. But perceptibly Lucy wants more. She wants her eye to be her “unique factor.”
