*WEIRD NEWS*
Three Taiwanese 'qi gong' practitioners use their penises to pull a 10-ton
truck loaded with 50 passengers as a crowd gathers to watch in Taipei on
October 29, 2000. The ancient art of 'qi gong' uses breathing and
meditation exercises to improve health and longevity, and is also used in
certain martial arts. (Simon Kwong/Reuters)
