World’s Most Pierced Woman set New Guinness Record
Elaine Davidson, the world’s most pierced woman, has added even more metal into her body. Davidson’s latest additions bring her piercing totals to 6,005, the U.K.
Elaine Davidson didn’t need the new piercings for record purposes–she got into the Guinness Book of World Records back in the year 2000 with the comparatively miniscule 462 piercings. At the time, just under 200 of those were in her face.
As for her current 6,005 piercings, Davidson tells the Telegraph more than 1,500 of them are “internal.”
Davidson works as a nurse in Edinburgh. She also recently opened a piercing studio in Darlington, Durham.

12 Creative Bras
It might not be the sexiest lingerie around, but this angry birds bra could be the geekiest. And of course, this could be a little dangerous for the ladies out there, as one of your breasts are likely to start attacking the other at any given time.
Japan has one of the world's most rapidly aging populations and has inspired Triumph to create this bizarre underwear. The Birthrate Bra has a right cup with four smiling children helping one old lady and a left cup with two kids suffering to support the old granny.
In a series called “Wallflowers”, artist Laura Jacobs made a series of bras decorated in different themes, often nautical ones, such as this crab one shown here.
Now men can stare at their two favorite things at the same time: sports and boobs.
Optical illusion bra.
Meet the talking bra. You push the gold button (as seen in picture) and the bra says different greetings and stuff. This bra speaks three languages – English, Chinese and Korean, welcoming tourists who step foot onto Japan! Another jewel from Triumph.
Zombie bra.
Faucet bra.
Babies bra.
Incredibly Bizarre Painters and their Weird Techniques
The painter who paints with basketballs
Hong Yi painted a strikingly detailed portrait of Yao Ming, a basketball player who recently retired from the Houston Rockets. She decided that a basketball would be a more appropriate instrument than a brush.

The painter who uses human blood
Vinicius Quesada is a talented street artist from Brazil who likes to add a shock value to his artwork. His series entitled, Blood Piss Blues, were created using exactly what it says – blood and urine. The Brazilian street artist makes incredibly detailed psychedelic art of violent geishas, smoking monkeys, and other apocalyptic images.
The underwater painters
A group of artists in the Ukraine dive into the water of the Black Sea to compose paintings. With scuba gear, they can stay underwater for up to 40 minutes. During that time, they apply paint to canvases under challenging conditions.
Painting under the sea is virtually the same as drawing above it. But the divers' canvasses are covered with a waterproof adhesive coating before they take the plunge.

The painter who paints with his tongue
-->Struggling painters must suffer for their art, slumming it in filthy digs and eating whatever's in the fridge, even if it's not food. But Ani K licks those lightweights – he paints with his tongue and regularly, if not surprisingly, deals with nausea, cramping and headaches.
When he first started, he got severe head and body aches every time he tried to use his tongue. He was sick because of the pungent fumes but has grown immune to the effects, he claims. So far, the drawing teacher has finished 20 watercolors including – rather appropriately – a 2.4m (8ft) wide rendering of Leonardo da Vinci's The Last Supper, featuring Jesus and his disciples. It took him five months to finish it.

The painter who uses dead ants
Artist Chris Trueman used an unusual medium to paint a piece he calls "Self-Portrait With Gun." Trueman used dead ants—200,000, to be specific—to paint a portrait of his little brother holding a rifle. Chris Trueman's "Self-Portrait With Gun" was a labor of love because the artist hated killing the ants needed to complete it. The end result was worth the ant genocide, as the painting is fetching offers of $35,000.
The painter who uses his eye
Outside of just painting and writing, Chen can also hold a stick in his eye and play the piano.

Dead mice. This is one creepy piece of jewelry I know I'll never use.

Creepy snake eye earring.
Got Swine Flu? Feeling a little under-the-weather? I have just the thing… These earrings may not CURE the common cold, but they're guaranteed to make you feel at least a teensy-tiny bit better! Little bitty blue & white bowls contain a hearty dose of cold remedy: noodles, bits of chicken, carrots, and celery in broth. Served on an oval plate slightly larger than a quarter, with 3 little saltine crackers. Note: These would make a great gift for your sister who has mono, your best friend who just caught the flu, or anyone who's feeling out of sorts and needs a whimsical little lift!
Slit throat choker with blood drop earrings, this is a combination that Edward would love.
Tiny folding knife earrings: You would look “sharp” in these.

Something about wearing body parts as jewelry doesn't strike me as fashionable nor stylish; it strikes me as “Serial Killer-y” and that look is so last season.
Gummy Candies Jar Earrings.
Etsy seller Elizabeth Kohn made a set of earrings that look like the piranha plants from Super Mario Bros. Ouch! Hopefully these don't spit fireballs.
