man suffering from constipation attempted a novel way to release his bowels. The 48-year-old, who was severely intoxicated, decided a hammerhead or two would sort out his blocked system. It didn’t, and he was rushed to the hospital. According to officials, "He said he had a few drinks to dull the pain and then came up with the idea of poking a hammerhead up his backside in the hope of sorting out the constipation. But the hammerhead got stuck and then he came up with the idea of using a second hammerhead in order to try and get out the first -- but then he lost the second one as well." What an idiot!

So the story goes that a 25-year-old man at Foxconn -- where iPhonesare born -- was to send 16 iPhone prototypes to Apple from the Chinese factory, but one was lost somewhere. The Foxconn security department then proceeded to illegally search the man’s apartment and interrogate him. But that was apparently too much for the man, who was suspected of being responsible for leaking a prototype of the next iPhone. A few days ago, he jumped from a 12-story building because of the incident. Seriously, it's just a friggin' phone, people. [Gizmodo]
