Zombies Used In Anti-Smoking Campaign

Here's a pretty interesting zombie-related story. Can zombies actually help society? Well maybe, if MTV's new plan is successful. MTV's long running show  The Real World (now in the 24th series!) have teamed up with the undead to warn viewers about the dangers of...smoking. Yeah, smoking. MTV will be screening several short anti-smoking, flesh-eating commercials during programmes. Sounds pretty lame, but just watch the below videos. Here are two of the anti-smoking adverts along with a trailer. Enjoy!

Spider: 1 Man With Flamethrower: 0.

Here's a very strange story for all you freaks out there, regarding a spider and a total idiot! Spiders. Most people hate those eight legged freaks. But what if one of them scurries about in your bathroom. What do you do? Reach for the rolled up newspaper? Or do the 'humane' thing (whatever that means) and rescue the poor bug's life? Well, if your name is Christopher Robinson and your married to a certain Janine then there's only one thing you can do. Burn it to death! Or, more accurately, FAIL at burning it to death.

On the last Monday of August in the quiet Clacton-On-sea, the petrified Janine instructed the 28-year old Christopher to get rid of the incy wincy spider that was running wild and causing all sorts of heinous crimes (!) in their bathroom. After FAILing to flush it out with a toilet brush, Christopher decided the only logical way to get rid of the creep was to suffocate it to death. He grabbed the nearest (highly flammable) aerosol can and smufered it with the sweet smell of spray. Just his luck that the light bulb blew at that exact moment. Without a thought, Christopher grabbed his lighter to shine some light on the situation and, yep you guessed it, kaboom! A fireball burst out and threw Christopher flying out of the bathroom and smashed it's way into the loft.  Christopher received burns to his legs, arms and face and a certificate for being an utter plonker.

The firemen supplied the punchline; "‘We’re not entirely sure whether the spider got away or not – but there was no sign of it.’"

Spontaneous Combustion - Six For The Price Of One.

Ladies, gentlemen, misfits, creeps and weirdos, here at the Circus of the Freaky I, the Freak, plan on telling you as many freaky and disturbing TRUE stories as possible. So, along with all the strange news, I'll also be going back into time and posting about past events. So to kick start this off, here's a true story about Spontaneous Combustion! It's getting hot in here.

Everyone knows what Spontaneous Combustion is (and I'm not talking about Tobe Hooper's terrible film of that name) but no one knows for sure why and how these incredibly disturbing events happen, leaving everyone hot under the collar. Here's one particular story that provides a lot of unanswered questions for, unlike the majority of SC cases, this one involved more than one person at once. In fact, six people went up in flames! Eeek.

Smokin'!

It all took place towards the end of December, 1976, Lagos, when a family of seven were involved in this tragic and spooky event. Out of the seven members, six of them burst into flames for no apparent reason, leaving only one person (the mother) to live with the horror that she witnessed for the rest of her life. The majority of Human Spontaneous Combustion reports center upon one person, but this case confused the whole phenomenon even further. An on the spot investigation after the event found six ex-humans burnt to cinders. Firstly, the heat required to burn a single person is very...hot. In fact a human cremation requires the body to be burnt several times and then the bones and all that remains to be crushed into a powder. So for a fire to engulf and reduce a living human to dust in just a matter of seconds would require an unbelievable (some may say unholy) amount of heat. Let alone to burn six individuals! And like most SHC cases the objects in this room appeared to be untouched, even the highly flammable cotton mattress which laid untouched next to the reduced bodies.

Upon further investigation, no traces of foul play including the ignition of petrol, etc was found.

Very creepy.

Robosaurus - The Definition of awesomeness! Roar!

What would you see if you looked up the word 'Awesome' in a dictionary? "Robosaurus?" No, you idiot, you would get the definition of 'Awesome!' But no other thing, in this world at least, is quite as awesome as the...awesome ROBOSAURUS!

Forget Godzilla, he's a has-been. For this is pure power! Measuring 40ft (12meters) in height and weighing 30 tons, this monster can crush cars, lorries, and even airplanes in it's jaws. Built in 1988 by Doug Malewicki (for a sum of $2.2 million!), nothing comes close to this monster. Not even the creature it was based on; the almighty T-Rex would look like a midget in a Peter Pan costume compared to this guy. What else can breath fire, crush anything and lift objects 5 storeys off the ground?!

But why there hell was it even made? I'm thinking two things. Either world domination or...world domination. But the Freak is wrong for apparently the whole idea came from wanting to create a real Transformer.
