World’s Longest Sausage

Butchers in Italy have pinched the record for creating the world’s longest sausage from their Romanian counterparts, creating a banger more than half a kilometer long. The 1,910ft long sausage took ten cooks from Penne, a small town in the center of the country, three hours to craft. More than half a tonne of meat – weighing exactly 1,300 lbs – was used to stuff the skin for the longest-ever sausage, which was produced in the main street.  It was officially measured at 1,910ft and was declared to have easily beaten the previous Romanian record-holder, whose sausage was only 1,254ft in length, according to the Guinness Book of Records. The giant sausage was cut up into 7,000 ordinary-sized bangers, stuffed in sandwiches and sold to the spectators to raise money for local charity Caritas. Head chef Alberto Della Pelle said: ‘We are very proud to have created a new world record with such delicious food.” w/ photo

Earth’s Bullseye

The Richat Structure in Mauritania provides the perfect target towards which you can aim your death ray, annihilation laser or whatever you call your extraterrestrial weapon of mass destruction. It’s almost as if another species, in a previous visit, had chalked in a target already and then become bored and wandered back to Betelgeuse. However, although to all intents and purposes it looks as if it could have been lasered in to the landscape the Richat Structure – (when not described as a bulls-eye it is called the outsized ammonite) is a completely natural phenomenon. Still unknown to many it gained the attention of the first astronauts because, unlike certain great walls, it is so very visible from space.” w/ photos

Top 9 Most Secretly Badass Animals

“Thanks to shows like Life and National Geographic Explorer the general public is finally finding out just how badass and crazy the animal kingdom can be. Whether you’re watching a cheetah chase down an antelope or a group of chimps fighting for territory, there’s just something very exciting about watching animals hunting, roaring, and fighting. Of course, everyone knows the alphas on the badass animal chain: jungle cats, bears, sharks, and the like. But there are so many more members of the animal kingdom that we commonly look over. Here are nine animals that don’t get nearly enough badass points.” w/ photos
