This luxurious treehouse is worlds away from your average wooden childhood den (or even this one that we recently told you about). Hidden in a forest in England, the modern treehouse was built by London designer Guy Mallinson for the ultimate retreat for holidaymakers wanting to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city.

This viral video might be a few months old but it still makes us smile. While covering the serious after effects of a brutal tornado in Texas, one reporter found something cute and funny to raise the spirit of viewers. In the background, she noticed a dog sitting on a riding lawnmower - as if it was getting ready to drive it!

Meet the tattoo-covered 74-year-old obsessed with setting world records. Based in Delhi, India, Har Prakash Rishi now calls himself 'Ripley’s Guinness Rishi’ in homage to Ripley’s Believe It Or Not! and the Guinness World Records. Rishi’s bizarre feats include downing a 490g bottle of ketchup in 39 seconds and delivering a pizza from New Delhi to San Francisco - which took him 27 hours. He also removed all his teeth so that he could create a world record by putting 65 burning candles in his mouth. In 2011 he also managed to squeeze an incredible 496 straws in his mouth.

A journalist captured the horrifying moment a BBC news presenter was video-bombed by a massive wasp on live TV. Ok, not really - but it looks real in a B-grade sci-fi kind of way... and it's funny!

This could have gone even more horribly wrong and become a Darwin Award. A man caused a massive explosion in his garden after throwing lit candles onto a mound of rubbish soaked in a highly-flammable substance. Not sure what he was expecting to happen, but pretty sure he regrets ruining a perfectly pretty lawn.

Not only do British folk eat some really weird stuff, they also have some unusual ways of turning it into an annual sporting event. The World Black Pudding Throwing Championships was held recently in an English village near Manchester. The tradition of pudding throwing dates back to a battle in the 15th century War of the Roses. According to local lore, troops who ran out of ammunition resorted to throwing Yorkshire and Black puddings at each other.

It seems like moms are always championing new trends around childbirth, whether it's hypnosis or eating placenta pills. Now the latest thing is apparently not only keeping their babies' umbilical cords, but turning them into jewellery or home accessories. The cords are fashioned into the design while they're still 'fresh' and then baked to dry them out.

Imagine seeing pictures of cats instead of adverts plastered all over public spaces? These guys in the UK made it happen in a tube station!

Italy’s Supreme Court has declared public masturbation is not a criminal offence. The decision overruled the sentence of a 69-year-old man for "taking out his penis and practicing autoeroticism" outside a university in Catania. The culprit still faces a hefty fine of between €5,000 and €30,000, but he is free to roam and play with himself in the streets.

What better way to start the week than by watching monkeys acting like humans? It's been said the tablet is so simple to use, ANYONE can do it... and here's proof!
