Are you one of those lucky people who just slides into bed, instantly falls asleep and then wakes up eight hours later feeling refreshed and ready to attack the day? Or are you more the kind who takes forever to get to sleep, tosses and turns all night and is forever waking up with a jolt after being shaken awake by a terrible nightmare? If you fit into the second section – or have nightmares at all – then this is going to fascinate you! We all dream. And many people believe there are subconscious reasons as to why we…

Dying is not a pleasant thing. No one really likes to think or talk about death. But, when the passing on is so downright bizarre or unbelievable, it’s almost impossible not to. List obsessives AllTime10s, fresh from giving us a countdown of the Top Ten Craziest Bank Robberies Ever are back. This time to run us through the ultimate ten ‘Dumbest Ways To Die’. These strange deaths are also known as ‘Darwin Awards’. The Darwin Awards are tongue-in-cheek.

For most people, a trip to McDonald’s with your family is a little treat. A hamburger, some fries and a shake with your loved ones – fun for everyone. But a father’s recent trip to a Jacksonville McDonald’s turned out to be a nightmare… His two sons were desperate to use the restroom and as it was only a few feet away from the queue, the dad let the two kids – six and seven – go alone. They’d only be a couple of minutes, things would be fine, he assured himself. After receiving his order, he sat down and…

For most us, the only way to raise money to go on vacation with, pay our mortgage or clear our debts is to keep on slogging away at work and collecting up money the old-fashioned way.

9/11. The worst terrorist atrocity in US history. More than 3,000 people lost their lives. It was a devastating event like no other. We’ll never see anything like it again in our lifetimes. It changed New York and America forever. But as depressing as it was, the September 11th attacks brought out the best in many people. Heroes rose from their everyday lives to prove themselves as braver than they could ever have imagined. But it wasn’t just people. It was animals too – service animals, to be precise. Dogs like ‘Bretagne’. She was part of what was known as ‘Texas…

The news is often full of stories about war and famine and desperation. Stories that are upsetting and depressing. We see images of the dead, bombs going off, war-ravaged villages… But every now and again, a picture emerges that really shocks us. And it doesn’t even need to be graphic. Look at this picture of a Syrian refugee and father. With his sleeping and exhausted daughter tossed over his shoulder, the desperate man tries to raise money. By selling pens. The kind you probably have a hundred of at home. This is a man. A father. And life has broken him.…

Sometimes, people just do weird things. Weird things like talking backwards real quick. Or jumping out of moving cars. Or boiling a mouse in their own pee and then eating it. You know how it goes. And we’d like to bring you a new weird thing that someone’s done. Why have they done it? We don’t know. Let’s just sit back and enjoy it. So put your feet up and get ready to watch a guy jump out of a truck he’s set alight as it plummets off a ledge, into some water below. Is this the redneck Olympics? Is…

Okay, it might seem a little odd to have two white middle class guys rapping through the History of Hip-Hop (6), but what the Hell – it was entertaining… Justin Timberlake pitched up The Tonight Show the other night to help his old pal Jimmy Fallon out with a medley of some of the rap world’s biggest hits. They treated their appreciative audience to a breathless six minute mash-up of everything from NWA to The Beastie Boys, R Kelly to Snow. And, despite our initial misgivings, we’ve got to say – it was pretty epic! The crowd soon got into…

UFC champion Ronda Rousey is set to go into movies. The best female fighter of all time is due to hit Tinseltown with production starting on a remake of the ’80s classic Road House, in 2016. The original starred Dirty Dancing star Patrick Swayze as Dalton, a tough guy bouncer hired to clean up one of the rowdiest, roughest bars in all of Missouri, The Double Deuce. The new one will see Rousey roundhouse kicking half the dudes in the bar. And we can’t wait! Road House has cult status now, but a Rousey-starring version might just be box office gold.…
