A remote location

Friends of 19-year-old Huang Chen, a student from Changsa, Southern China have gone a little far with a practical joke.

The students decided to push a TV remote control up their mate’s backside after he collapsed unconscious during a drunken night out.

After the remote control was removed, Dr Wei Lung Zhi of Hunan Hangtian Hospital said: “He will be fine in time, but the remote was a write off.”

Foolish Facebooker

A wanted criminal has been found after police discovered his whereabouts on Facebook.

Chris Crego pleaded guilty to charges of assault in 2009, but after failing to turn up to his sentencing it was suspected he was trying to escape charges.

Luckily for the police, this particular criminal did not seem hugely intent on escape, as he updated his Facebook and MySpace pages with his current address and place of work. He even uploaded his ‘wanted’ poster.

Unsurprisingly, Crego was found and charged $25,000. He now awaits his hearing.

Arty nudes

Last week 200 members of the public gathered to bare all in the name of art.

American artist Spencer Tunick is famous for his photographs of mass nudes in artistic formations at varying locations.

On Monday crowds assembled themselves outside the Sydney Opera House in Australia, while Tunick organised his artistic subjects over a loudspeaker.

Participants were asked to adopt varying poses including lying down, hugging, kissing and waving their arms in the air.
