Forget those little gummy worms you
used to get in a pick-and-mix. This is the gummy python, a seven foot
long 36,000 calorie monster which is more sweet than you would ever want
to eat.
The candy snake is surprisingly detailed and includes intricate eyes, extensive and blended coloring, ridged coils, and thousands of individually carved scales. But maybe more importantly it is freakishly huge!
Weighing in a at 12.2 kilograms (27 pounds) it's almost 8ft long and those 36,720 calories are 18.36 days of an adult's recommended daily allowance.
2) Architects have created an interesting design for a possible new bridge in Paris … it consists of three inflatable doughnut trampolines.
The bizarre design was created as a response to an ideas competition for a new bridge in Pari - which will add to the 37 bridges which already cross the Seine.
A spokesperson for design firm Atelier Zündel Cristea said: "It appears to us that Paris has the bridges and passages necessary for the flow of vehicular and pedestrian traffic across its waterways.
"Our intention is to invite its visitors and inhabitants to engage on a newer and more playful path across this same water. We propose, now, a distinctive urban feature: an inflatable bridge equipped with giant trampolines, dedicated to the joyful release from gravity as one bounces above the river.
3) Parents with young babies often complain that because of their constant changing of dirty nappies and sleepless nights, they don't get enough time to do things like clean the house… well step forward the baby mop.
The baby map is an ingenious way of keeping your floors clean. It's a baby outfit with mop attachments on the arms and legs, so that as a baby crawls, it cleans where-ever it goes.
4) Meet the Ostrich Pillow, a bizarre new object which promises to allow people to sleep anywhere - whether in the office or traveling - by covering their head and neck in a cozy but weird-looking manner.
The weird pillow, which was recently funded through Kickstarter and is said to be ideal for power naps, features a large hole on the bottom for users to insert their head, while two smaller holes keep your hands warm.
There's also a third hole for your mouth, because breathing is important even if you are snug with your head on your desk when you are meant to be working. Makers say the Ostrich Pillow has been a year in the making and has been trialled in airports, trains, airplanes, libraries, at the office, on a sofa and even on the floor.
5) Everyone loves a good photobomb, especially when the photobomber in question is an animal … which could explain why these Stingray Photobomb photos went viral. Seen by millions of people, the images show shocked swimmers being mounted by stingray as they enjoy the water and pose for a quick photo.
The images are thought to have been taken in the Cayman Islands Stingray City, a tourist destination where people get to touch and feed stingray amongst coral reefs.
