[hur] Unemployed man in China tries to feed himself to tigers Published on Feb 18, 2014 10:58 AM A female Bengali white tiger dragging Mr Yang Jinhai by his shirt after he climbed into the enclosure at a zoo in Chengdu, Sichuan province on Feb 16, 2014. -- PHOTO: REUTERS BEIJING (AFP) - A man in China survived an unsuccessful attempt to feed himself to a pair of Bengal tigers and is being treated for depression, a Chinese newspaper reported on Tuesday. According to the Chengdu Business Daily, Yang Jinhai, 27, climbed a tree and jumped into the tigers' enclosure on Sunday at the Chengdu Zoo in south-west China's Sichuan province. As stunned visitors watched, Yang - who is unemployed and suffers from mental health issues, according to his brother - "performed exaggerated movements" as he spent 20 minutes trying to tempt the tigers to eat him. "I asked them to bite me and let them eat my meat, and so I did not fight back," Yang told the paper.

To all adventurous parents, Don't try this at our Mandai Zoo [sweatdrop] Check out the video embedded in the website. From STOMP: http://singaporeseen.stomp.com.sg/stomp/sg...o_eat_baby.html Posted on 17 May 2012 Lion desperately tries to eat baby -- from behind a glass wall STOMPer Fangsyou is amused with this lioness trying to attack a baby at a zoo. The lioness was pawing desperately at the baby and trying to bite its head, but was obstructed by the glass. The STOMPer is happy that humans are safe from attacks by wild animals. Said the STOMPer: "I saw this crazy video of a lion trying to chomp off a baby's head. "Luckily this is at a zoo and there's a sheet of glass separating the baby from the animal. "All hell will break lose when an animal like this escapes from the zoo. "We are so fortunate to live in a world without predators hunting us!"

A 58-YEAR-OLD doctor sentenced to two weeks' jail last week for drink driving has filed an appeal against her sentence. Irene Lim Kay Han, a senior consultant radiologist at the KK Women's and Children's Hospital, who was also banned from driving for four years, is on bail pending the appeal hearing. Lim had pleaded guilty to a charge of drink driving between 9pm on April 26 and 1.30am the following morning. Some time after 1.30am, her stationary car "with the engine running, headlights turned on and hazard lights off" was spotted on the third lane of the Pan Island Expressway in the direction of Tuas, near the Clementi Avenue 6 exit. A patrol officer with the Expressway Monitoring Advisory System who checked on the car, noticed the woman smelt of alcohol. A Traffic Police officer was sent to the scene. Lim failed a breathalyser test and was arrested. A second test at the station, taken at about 3.50am, showed she had 129 mcg of alcohol per 100 ml of breath, nearly four times the legal limit of 35 mcg. Her lawyer said the offence arose out of an urgency to see an aunt whom she thought was dying. Senior Counsel Sant Singh said that Lim had gone to bed but was woken up by a call from the hospital saying that her aunt's condition had deteriorated. He said her first reaction was to go to her aunt; it did not occur to her that the wine she had during lunch and dinner and the glass of whisky she took as a nightcap would put her over the limit to be behind the wheel. Mr Singh noted that Lim did not cause any damage or injury and was not a serious danger as there was not much traffic at the time. Lim, who has a clean driving record, had always hired a limousine service when attending events where she may drink, he said. He also pointed to her charity work and contribution to the local arts scene. But District Judge Salina Ishak said in her written judgment that jail terms are usually imposed on drink-driving motorists whose alcohol level is more than three times the legal limit. Lim's alcohol level was "clearly sufficiently high" to create a real risk of causing injury to people or damage to property; it was only fortuitous that no one was hurt or killed, said Judge Salina. The judge noted that Lim could have called for a taxi or her usual limousine service. As a senior doctor, Lim would be aware of the dangers of drink driving. The judge said that while Lim's contributions are commendable, she found no compelling reason for the doctor to be spared the usual sentence. In fact, a stern sentence was justified to send the message that the courts do not tolerate such offences. First-time drink-driving offenders can be fined between $1,000 and $5,000 or jailed for up to six months. Subsequent offenders can be fined between $3,000 and $10,000 and be jailed for up to a year.

Hyundai Sonata This was my friend's Sonata, he traded in for a VW Touran at 26,000. Now selling at 35.8k, not a bad ROI if the dealer manages to sell at asking price. BTW, if anyone is interested in this, the mileage was 86,000.
