Extreme Rollercoaster FAIL

“Following a test run of the of the UK’s newest rollercoaster, due to open in just 49 days, some of the test dummies were left ‘alarmingly’ damaged following collisions with some of the rides ‘extreme “near miss” spots’. The theme park, located in Surrey, have confirmed ‘drastic measures’ have been taken to amend the problems after an emergency response team were called out to fix the ride. Some of the mannequins were left without any arms or legs following the hell-raising ride which promises to leave thrill-seekers ‘exposed and vulnerable to the extreme near misses and gut-wrenching inversions as it rips through the sky on its mission of complete annihilation.” w/ photos

A man in Dorset has been left mystified after tiny blue spheres fell from the sky into his garden. Steve Hornsby from Bournemouth said the 1-inch diameter balls came raining down late on Thursday afternoon during a hail storm. He found about a dozen of the balls in his garden. He said: ‘[They're] difficult to pick up, I had to get a spoon and flick them into a jam jar.’ The Met Office said the jelly-like substance was ‘not meteorological’. Mr Hornsby, a former aircraft engineer, said: ‘The sky went a really dark yellow color. ‘As I walked outside to go to the garage there was an instant hail storm for a few seconds and I thought, ‘what’s that in the grass?” w/ photos
