Daredevils in Switzerland have taken an extreme dip in a jacuzzi suspended 150m above the ground. The breathtaking stunt was organised by a group of “extreme jacuzzi” fanatics who dangled 39m off the side of the 189m Gueuroz Bridge using cables and ropes. The 25 participants abseiled onto the platform to enjoy the bath and a breathtaking view of Trient Gorge, complete with champagne and cake. It took six hours to assemble the makeshift hot-tub and about 2500 hours to plan to mission. Water was heated in a second jacuzzi on the bridge and lowered onto the platform where a gas-powered system kept it warm.

Crazy Styles From The Alternative Hair Show
The rather alarming Alternative Hair Show was held in Moscow on Wednesday, September 28th 2011, while modern day Marie Antoinettes struted their stuff and presented the wildest hairstyles ever seen. I can’t even imagine occasion at which it would be even remotely possible to pull off look like this. If you expect to see some curls or classic fringes in the images below, you’ll be quite surprised cause the stylists in this show were more “chimney brush” oriented.
10 Things Apple is Worth More Than
According to Best Tech Info, Apple is nowadays worth around 363.69 billion dollars. We are all aware of how much money that is and how powerful this company is, but just to put things in perspective, we compared it for you with some other things. It really wasn’t too difficult to find things that Apple is worth more than and especially if we consider that US government declaration in which they confirm that the Apple had more liquidity (more operating cash at the end of the day) than the United States of America. It’s really something to ponder about. The world’s largest tech company has more cash than the world’s largest sovereign government. It probably has something to do with the fact that Apple doesn’t spend as much money as the US government.
Awesome Split Faces of Family Members
Here are some really awesome split family faces made by graphic designer and photographer Ulric Collette. Sometimes the resemblance between parent and child or between siblings is really obvious. The easiest way of comparing people is bringing the images of them side by side, and even better way is combining these two images in one like Collete did in these photos below. It looks a bit freakishly, especially the ones presenting parents and their children, but it also shows how much they resemble to each other.

22 Actors Who Are Way Better Looking Than The Real Life Characters They Played
There is nothing strange in actors being prettier and more handsome than the real life people and people we meet everyday. Finally that is the main reason why the Hollywood actors are so over payed for the job they do. Aside from being ridiculously rich, their fans simply adore them and collect pictures of them, signatures, various items that the adored celebrity used at some point, etc. And all of this happens just because we like looking at beautiful people. Even when the movie is telling the biography and life story of a real person, we need to make them more pleasing to the eye, so we could connect and sympathize with the character. It’s like the ugly people have no emotions at all, or if they do, they are always the ‘bad guys’ in the story. Anyhow, here are some images of the actors who are way better looking than the real life characters they played.

Would You Stay in This Crazy Rock Hotel?
Anyone who has ever attempted to travel through Europe on a budget has probably ended up staying in some fairly strange places. But nothing we’ve ever experienced can top this proposal for “Barcelona Rock,” Poland-based UGO Architecture‘s entry in an international competition to design a “bohemian hostel for backpackers.” While from the outside the building looks like a strange part of the natural landscape, the structure contains fifty rooms with windows, a swimming pool, spa, gym, cinema, pub, and a small climbing wall for beginners (advanced climbers are meant to scale the hostel’s exterior). Let us know in the comments what you think of the concept.
