A young man in the Russian town of Magnitogorsk was so attached to his mobile phone that he took an eight-floor plunge after it. Being a bit tipsy, the man had accidentally dropped the mobile phone into the garbage chute of his apartment. When he tried to crawl into the chute, it collapsed under his weight. When rescuers arrived, they found him in the bin below with scratches and soiled clothing but no serious injuries. Fakty
Soaring temperatures in Kyiv at the end of May led many people out on to the streets - some with little regard for conventions on dress. One respectable looking gentlemen from Vinnytsa parked his foreign-model sedan on Lviv Square, got out and proceeded to get naked. After carefully placing his mobile phone and documents on top of his discarded clothing, the 37-year-old ran onto the road and began jumping into the back seats of cars stopped at the traffic light. According to witnesses, the man would then return to the sidewalk and lie on his belly. When a doctor tried to treat his scrapes, the distraught streaker fought him off savagely. After making a quick dash into a nearby bank, whose employees promptly ejected him, the man again returned to his prostrate position on the pavement, where police arrived to handcuff him.
