Oar Blimey! 18 Ft Long Oarfish Washes Up in California

20,000 leagues did not seem so far to some surprised wanderers, after an 18 foot long Oarfish was found washed up on the beach of Southern California.

The behemoth is rarely sighted, choosing to dwell at the eye-watering depth of around 3000 feet. This particular monster, which took 15 adults to carry, was spotted by marine biologist Jasmine Santana as she snorkelled - striking a terrifying sight but providing a fascinating discovery. The scientist managed to drag the gargantuan creature for around 75 feet before curious by-standers helped bring the find to shore.

The Brighton walrus hoax to be made into movie

Ages and ages and ages ago (June), we told the story of the Brighton man looking for a new tenant on Gumtree. The only hitch with this rent free accommodation was that the lodger would have to dress up as a walrus a few times per day and pretend to talk…. presumably like a Walrus.

Man Caught Smuggling Fish in his Trousers

A Vietnamese man was stopped in his attempts to smuggle live tropical fish into New Zealand when water was spotted dripping from his pockets.

Customs officials realised something fishy was going on, perhaps while twiddling their mustaches, and apprehended the man. For the purposes of the Wireless retelling of this story we'd like you to imagine this man is John Cleese. It's just a nicer image.

Swedish Fish Wants to Eat Your Balls

For those who are not confident skinny dipping can take a lot of balls; but in Sweden you're in danger of coming out from the water minus those balls.

The relative of a piranha, a pacu, has been found by a fisherman in the Oresund Sound (the sea between Sweden and Denmark) and has made a twist on the classic Swedish meatball dish - preferring testicles to beef. 

Man Rides Fish and Damages Barnacles

America has a fascination with jumping on untrained animals; cows, horses, girlfriends, and then holding on for dear life for as long as they can before being thrown to the ground, and sometimes stomped on. I don't really understand why, but all I can think of is that it's expensive, and potentially quite dangerous.

However something has surfaced that I think is going to become a new national pastime. Especially for those who don't live inland, have access to a cow, and have a high insurance premium.
