We like’em BIG
October 31, 2008
If you like big things, than you’ll love these photos. Just like every one of us, nature goes over-board every once in a while. Here are some examples of over-grown animals and plants, some cute, some scary and some just plain disgusting:
Modern-Day Atlantis
October 31, 2008
As if Dubai’s 7-stars Burj al Arab Hotel wasn’t wonderful enough, the wealthy Arab sheics have created an even greater architectural wonder, the Atlantis. It cost over 1,5 billion dollars to build, but the investors are confident that they will recover their investment in just a few years, and at a minimum of $1,000 per room/night, they just might. The theme rooms, like Poseidon and Neptune go up to $8,000-$10,000 a night.
Built on the artificial island known as The Palm, Atlantis has 1373 room, 166 apartments, a giant fish-tank with 65,000 fish, a 170,000 square meters aqua park, artificial beaches, a lagoon and even an artificial river. Plenty of reasons to visit…if you can afford it.
Meet Samson
October 31, 2008
At 6 feet and 5 inches, Samson is by far the largest dog in the United Kingdom. Don’t worry though, this “puppy’s” bark is a lot worse than his bite, he’s what you’d call a harmless giant that loves to be petted even by strangers. A cross between a Great Dane and a Newfoundland, Samson is about the size of a small horse and even wears a raincoat meant for one, because, like his owners say “Such a large dog getting soaking wet wouldn’t smell very nice.”
Samson is only three years old and will continue to grow even more and the owners fear that soon they’ll be forced to get a bigger house. the current one is already pretty shaken up from the dog’s loud snoring.

When it comes to transportation, arguably the Germans do it best. Sticking the following logo to your car might not make it go faster, but it will make it look cooler. In case you’re wondering how German top animals look like, here’s a preview.
I can haz… rabbit?
October 24, 2008
I don’t know what’s wrong with us these days - we keep posting some weird animal stuff lately. We love animals, some in our plate, some in our backyard and some in the wild. But these was too wtf-ish to miss. Here is what a stork is having for a snack (don’t watch if you like bunnies)
Mouse takes on a snake
October 21, 2008
We’ve already featured the confrontation between ninja cat and irritated dog and now we’re going to take it a little bit further. This time, a mouse has an argument with a snake. This is certainly not going as one would expect!
Which comes first? Work or Family?
October 21, 2008
That’s a question on the minds of many. You’re struggling to make money for your family but in the meantime you also want to be able to spend time with your family, especially if you have small children. So we ask ourselves, what is our priority? Which comes first? If you still haven’t came up with an answer, this guy managed to combined both.
