Divers Play Underwater Game For 36 Hours

These scuba divers are claiming a new world record after playing the same card game underwater for 36 hours. The 16 divers – who worked in shifts so they could change oxygen tanks – sat on the bottom of a pool in Geiselhoering, Germany, playing a favourite local game called ‘sheepshead’. Organiser Eric Schlegelmilch said: ‘We gave up counting who owed what after an hour. We didn’t want anyone going belly up.’ Now the group plan to contact Guinness World Records officials with a video record of their stunt.” w/ photo

Man Has 82 Tattoos Of Julia Roberts

Julia Roberts fanatic, Miljenko Parserisas Bukovic, has tattooed his body with 82 different images of her face. Parserisas, a 56-year-old newspaper seller from Mexico, revealed his inked artwork in a photo shoot in Valparaiso city. He has so far spent a million Mexican pesos (just over $70,000) for the 82 tattoos. The newspaper vendor’s obsession with tattoos of Roberts started after he watched her in Erin Brockovich. In the film Roberts plays a legal assistant who brings down a US energy company single handedly. The American actress is tattooed all over Mr Parserisas’ body in artwork inspired by a number of scenes from the film. The Roberts fanatic has said that he has plans to get more faces inked on his chest, back and arms.” w/ photo

Jenius Gets Arrested!

“This is Jerome Smith, a heavily-tattooed 29-year-old arrested on suspicion of assaulting a pregnant woman. Smith, from Cincinnati, Ohio, is alleged to have hit the woman, who is eight-months gone, in the head with a gun… But his tattooed face has the misspelled word ‘Jenius’ on his forehead. The ‘J’ may be a cursive ‘G’, in which case Smith should have demanded a refund from the tattooist for their amateur work.” w/ photo
