Incredible Swimming Pool Illusion

In 2004 a creative Argentinean artist, Leandro Erlich, built a fake swimming pool that looks real from the top. He suspended a 10cm layer of water over a transparent glass on the top, while beneath the glass the room is empty. The walls are also carefully designed to give a original look of a swimming pool. Currently these fake pools are installed at PS1 Art Center in New York and the 21st Century Art Museum in Kanazawa, Japan. You can see more works from the same artist here.

Now THAT’S how to park in a tight spot! Car seen perched on balcony of apartment block

Trying to find a parking space in a busy city centre is always a stressful experience for any motorist.

There's the threat of getting a ticket for illegally parking or simply running out of change for the meter.

But the owner of this car went to extreme measures to dodge any prowling parking wardens by amazingly getting his vehicle into a very tight spot - 60ft up in the air.

Tight spot: The red vehicle was spotted on the third floor of an apartment block in Kiev, Ukraine

The red Toyota Yaris was spotted perched on the balcony on the third floor of an apartment block in the Ukrainian capital of Kiev. How and why it got there is still a mystery.
It didn’t arrive by going out through the window and it would take great skills by a crane driver to lift it into position without smashing it up against the building.
Perhaps it was a very clever publicity stunt by the car manufacturer.

But whatever the answer to the riddle, you have to admire the driving skills of the motorist to get into such a tight spot. And there’s certainly no danger of getting a ticket.
The driver could of course be the owner of the flat and likes to have his own personal parking spot. But that would be car-azy.
And if he tried to make a quick getaway then he would be in big trouble.

Parked up: The car finds a vacant parking spot outside the apartment block in Kiev

Incredible Photos of 500 year old Frozen Inca Girl Mummy

Salta, Argentina - Buried within the peaks of South American moutains, researchers discovered the nearly perfect preserved remains of three Incan children.  Sources indicate the names:  The Maiden, The Boy and The Girl of Lightning.  These remains were found in a cold and desolate summit of Mount Llullaillaco, the frigid isolation leaving remains so untouched by animals, bacteria and other humans that instead of looking like mummies, the remains look nearly alive. 
Scientists examine the hair of a 15-year-old Incan girl whose nearly perfectly preserved body was discovered on the summits of Mount Llullaillaco.
Archaeologists speculate that the three children were part of an Incan religious sacrifice, explaining why their bodies do not have organs removed, to the point that even blood is still present within their hearts, vessels, lungs and organs.   Those researching the site speculate that the children were huddled, either experiencing hypothermia or near-sleep as they froze to death and were left to time.

 
Unearthed from an untimely and lonely tomb the product of religious sacrifice, La Doncella — the fifteen-year-old Incan girl mummy — now sits in a museum in La Salta, Argentina, where people can come to observe and see first-hand the history of the people in the region. 

Found at the burial site were artifacts common to Incans of the time.

Ukrainian Guy Turns His old Mitsubishi into Lamborghini

A motivated Ukrainian man has turned his 2003 Mitsubishi Eclipse Coupe into a Lamborghini Reventon in two years time.
Starting back in 2010, 30-year-old automotive enthusiast Alexander grabbed some friends and family members and began working on the parts that would be necessary to make the transformation.
The two-year process was photographed throughout, so you can see all the steps it took to turn a modest four-banger into a knockoff supercar.
Kudos to Alexander for the effort, but it still seems a bit… wrong.

Sculptor Carves Room Entirely Out of Chocolate


A shopping mall in Kaliningrad, Russia celebrated its fifth anniversary by commissioning an artist to create a room entirely of chocolate. Russian sculptor Elena Climent carved it out of 420 kilograms of dark, milk and white chocolate. Measuring around 20 square meters, the delicious-looking room features furniture like a chocolate sofa, table and carpet, as well as chocolate cutlery, candle holders, and flowers. 40% of the room is made of dark chocolate, another 40% is milk chocolate, and the rest is white chocolate.
