There really is such a thing as a "Dick Measuring Contest". Especially among Sanford researchers.

The average penis length worldwide has increased by 25 percent in recent decades — and the scientists who discovered this apparent growth spurt say it might not be a good thing.

In a paper published on Valentine's Day in the World's Journal of Men's Health, Stanford researchers observed that per their meta-analysis of decades of studies, the length of erect penises has increased 24 percent — from 4.8 inches to about six — over the past roughly 30 years, even as testosterone levels and sperm quality have declined.

Feb. 21 (UPI) -- A California man whose 3.97-inch tongue earned him a Guinness World Record said he has found an unusual way to put his unique muscle to work -- painting.

Nick Stoeberl, who was awarded the world record for longest tongue (male) when it was officially measured at 3.97 inches from tip to teeth in 2012, showed off his unusual painting skills during an appearance on ITV series This Morning.

A pilot thought his co-pilot was joking and ‘taking a nap’ when he had in fact died in the cockpit mid-flight, according to a report.

The pilot said he thought the 57-year-old instructor was ‘just joking’ after his head rolled back and slumped over shortly after taking off.

The Air Accidents Investigation Branch investigated the incident and concluded current medical assessments were acceptable but risks ‘can never be reduced to zero.’

FEBRUARY 24--In a harebrained scheme destined to fail, a Florida Woman thought she could game a court-ordered urinalysis test with a pill container “filled with soda and tap water,” according to court records.

As a result of guilty pleas last month to a pair of felony charges, Shannon Hunter, 44, was required yesterday to provide probation officials in Clearwater with a urine sample.

Seen at right, Hunter--who recently copped to possessing painkillers without a prescription and theft counts--apparently knew her urine would prove to be dirty. So she “attempted to use a prescription pill container full of an unknown liquid to pass her urinalysis,” an arrest affidavit notes.
