Weird News - Things that make you go 'hmmm'

Andi Norton, 32, who also goes by the name Ben Havoc, said in an Instagram post earlier this month that he blew his nose and, “low and behold,” a Lego dot piece came out.

Havoc explained that, when he was six years old, he put the Lego dot up his nose.

The toy was “too small for me to reach in my nose and grab it,” he said. So, he said he “had the brilliant idea” of shoving a Lego man up his nose to collect it.

“At this point, I’ve panicked loudly and my mom came in and, in her panic, she’s looking at my nose and seeing there’s a Lego head stuck in my nostril,” he said.

His mom pulled out that second toy with a tweezer – believing it to be the only piece.

For the last 26 years, Havoc said he has suffered from multiple breathing issues including asthma and has recently been diagnosed with obstructive sleep apnea.

He said that his doctor had recommended he blow his nose in the shower during the summer months in order to take advantage of the steam and humidity.

After following that advice for the past six months, one day he got a big surprise when the Lego piece fell out of his nose.

"The bag could have been there a day or two or maybe just hours, but those salty morsels of processed corn made soft by thick humidity triggered the growth of mold on the cavern floor and on nearby cave formations.

“To the ecosystem of the cave it had a huge impact,” the park noted in a social media post, explaining that cave crickets, mites, spiders and flies soon organized to eat and disperse the foreign mess, essentially spreading the contamination."

Family members of Krishna Kumar said they took him to Ganpati Hospital in Saran after he vomited several times. "We admitted him and the vomiting stopped soon after. But the doctor Ajit Kumar Puri said he needs to be operated upon. He conducted the operation by watching videos on YouTube. My son died later," Chandan Shaw.

The family members said they do not know if the 'doctor' had proper qualifications. "We think he was self-styled and fake," they said.

The teenager's grandfather said the boy was feeling better after the vomiting stopped. "But the doctor sent the father away on an errand and started operating on the boy without the family's consent. The boy was in pain. When we asked the doctor why he was in pain, he snapped at us and asked if we were doctors. Later in the evening, the boy stopped breathing. He was revived (with CPR) and then rushed to Patna. He died on the way. They left the boy's body on the stairs of the hospital and fled," said Krishna Kumar's grandfather Prahlad Prasad Shaw.

Scratch one life

The couple took over a decade to actually join the club, with annual dues of $31,500, but spending closer to $125,000 a year to visit the Anaheim parks. They were expelled from the club five years later when park security guards found the husband intoxicated in the park, a violation of club rules. The couple has since spent $400,000 suing to regain access to the club and ‘clear his reputation,’ claiming he was not drunk but suffering from a “vestibular migraine” which looks a lot like being drunk and can be triggered by red wine. They claim they were targeted for retaliation because they complained about a different club member harassing other club members and staff.

The couple plan to appeal.

Police in Kentucky are looking for a man who has defecated on the same porch multiple times over the past week for no apparent reason.

Louisville Metro Police say they have received three police reports about the alleged “porch pooper,” who’s since gained lots of attention online after doorbell videos of him have been posted on Reddit and Instagram.

The homeowner, who did not want to be identified, being targeted by the so-called porch pooper said he first noticed something was up on Tuesday.

“I went out to my front porch that morning and noticed what I thought was cat poop,” he said.

The homeowner said he cleaned it up and checked his Nest doorbell camera from the night before and that’s when he realized it certainly wasn’t a cat.

“Not only did he defecate, but he also urinated on our welcome mat,” he said.
