“The American people will never knowingly adopt Socialism. But under the name of ‘liberalism’ they will adopt every fragment of the Socialist program, until one day America will be a Socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.”

Some things, the human body just wasn't meant to do


Who aspires to be a contortionist? Was nurse or dental hygeinist not an option?

Contortionist Iona Luvsandorj has smashed an endurance world record by holding her entire bodyweight on her mouth in an arduous backbend.

Iona, who is 28 and lives in West Hampstead, London, held a pose called the "Marinelli bend" for 33 seconds, beating the existing world record by 11 seconds.

The Marinelli is an inverted backbend where the whole body is supported by the mouth by gripping onto a short post that is held between the gums.


Enough morons have attempted this ridiculous stunt that they made up a name for it?

Is there really still a living to be made as a circus freak? If this doesn't work out, there's always room for a contortionist in the porn industry.
