A FEARLESS diver threw herself in the deep end when she came face-to-face with a group of crocodiles. Italian daredevil Roberta Mancino was completely unprotected when she swam just inches away from the huge reptiles' jaws. The thrill-seeker completed the daring dive near the Banco Chinchorro atoll in the Gulf of Mexico. The isolation of the enormous coral reef meant she was hours away from help if anything went wrong.

MEET Krista and Tatiana Hogan, the rare conjoined twins who share a brain. The two-year-old girls from Vancouver, Canada, have confounded doctors and specialists alike. Their mother believes when one watches television, the other can see the images even if her eyes are closed. The pair are linked at the thalamus, the control centre for sight, smell and touch, and experts believe Krista and Tati can share thoughts. This remarkable film explores the girls’ lives for a year as they learn to talk and become aware of one another. Source: Barcroft TVBeast Mode: Is This The World's Toughest Workout?
MEET the mad muscleman behind Britain's craziest workout regime. Fitness fanatic Michael Tavernier's gravity-defying routines leave fellow gym goers open-mouthed - and have catapulted him to social media stardom. The 40-year-old Londoner has developed his own unique callisthenics-based training programme, featuring moves inspired by the martial arts movies of his youth like Bruce Lee's Enter The Dragon. His workouts - which have had more than 30 MILLION views on Facebook – includes turning himself upside down on the gym equipment to carry out 'handstand pushups'.

A BENDY OAP rests his head on the upturned sole of his foot in a remarkable display of flexibility. Mbah Bejan is 68-years-old, but the grandfather of 16 has all of the agility and poise of a gymnast. Mhab is so flexible that he can even fold his body in two and squeeze into a pipe just 50cm in diameter. Other incredible positions include 'the roasted chicken’, where he lies on his back, swivels his knees through 180 degrees and places his feet flat on his stomach, and the cobra, in which he lies face down and presses his calves to his side.

When we think of physical strength and ability it’s easy to picture a range of sports and film celebrities we associate with those characteristics. Any fans of football can list of a host of athletes who possess considerable strength which is displayed week in and week out on TVs across the country. Those with a keen interest in strength are also likely familiar with body building competitions which see contestants build up their muscle mass and tone through extensive weight lifting. Arnold Schwarzenegger and Lou Ferrigno (aka the original Incredible Hulk) are probably two of the most legendary body builders who became icons of strength in the 1970s. This image was further enhanced through the 1980s as both took on acting roles which emphasized their size and strength. Source : TheRichest
