Mateus Facio was born with a Lucky Rabbit's foot in some orifice. Talk about Lucky.

A university student spent four days with a bullet lodged in his brain, mistakenly thinking he'd been hit by a stone.

Mateus Facio, 21, carried on as normal before discovering the truth, even going swimming and partying with mates. It was only when problems arose with his right arm that he sought medical help.

He hasn't hit rock bottom yet. He's a Genius Award Winner.

A father-of-two went to great lengths to fund his heroin addiction – by abseiling down a quarry wall to steal rare peregrine falcon eggs.

Christopher Wheeldon was caught on a hidden wildlife camera, set up to monitor the nest, rappelling down a cliff face while hooked up to a harness.

An adult bird guarding the nest can be heard desperately calling out in distress but the 34-year-old tree surgeon was not deterred by its efforts to fend him off.

He is seen reaching into the nest and removing the valuable eggs, which can even fetch thousands of pounds on the middle eastern avian market.
