Cheating husband exposed by parrot
A cheating husband was exposed after his wife’s parrot mimicked his voice calling out another woman’s name.
Frank Ficker, 50, has now been kicked out of the family home by wife Petra, also 50, after she heard their 12-year-old parrot Hugo impersonating him on the phone to another woman.
Petra said: “Hugo always liked to mimic Frank and he could do his voice perfectly.
“Frank asking who’s at the door, Frank yelling at our nephews, Frank telling me he loved me. And then one day I heard him doing Frank’s voice, but saying “Uta, Uta”.”
Petra turned the house upside down and found two plane tickets for a weekend break in Paris booked for her husband – and a mystery woman named Uta.
She said: “I kicked him straight out. It’s just me and my parrot now.”
Man pulls truck with penis
A 50-year-old Californian pulled a truck with his penis for a British film crew.
Martial arts grandmaster Tu Jin-Sheng attached himself to the truck and pulled it several yards across a car park in Fremont.
The Tri-Valley Herald reports that he first tied a strip of blue fabric around his penis and testicles and tugged to make sure it was on tight.
An assistant then kicked him hard between the legs before he lashed himself to the vehicle.
About 20 people, most of whom study Qigong, the ancient Chinese art of movement and breathing to increase energy, gathered for the truck pull.
Jin-Sheng, originally from Taiwan, is the grandmaster of Iron Crotch, a branch of Qigong said to have 60,000 followers worldwide.
Its practitioners are known to lift hundreds of pounds with their genitals to increase energy and sexual performance.
A film crew from London were on hand to shoot the truck-pulling feat for a three-part series called Penis Envy, due to be broadcast next year.
Cleaners ‘hoovered cash from slot machines’
Two cleaning ladies are being investigated for using industrial vacuum cleaners to suck cash out of casino slot machines.
The women allegedly stole cash out of slot machines in a Slovenian casino.
The police have now been called in after bosses at Casino Korona in the Kranjska Gora ski resort grew suspicious.
They say money started disappearing from slot machines after the casino closed for the night.
Officers believe at least two of the casino’s cleaning ladies had been using the giant vacuum cleaners for months to suck cash out of the machine’s slots.
Casino bosses estimate the women could have stolen more than $560,000 but cannot prove it. The entire cleaning staff has been fired.
Follow that donkey!
Four cop cars took more than an hour to catch a gang of teenage thieves who escaped on a cart pulled by a donkey.
Officers from the Greek town of Patras said they were unable to keep up with the donkey, which the boys steered down the old town’s winding streets and narrow alleyways.
The chase, which one eyewitness described as “unbelievable”, only came to an end an hour later when the young thieves, aged between 13 and 15 turned into a dead end.
Police caught the trio with a safe stolen from the local hospital on the back of their cart.
