Ever fancied going on the trip of a lifetime? Well, how about letting
your toy go instead? (Image: Getty)
The basis of this is to send your toys off on a potentially world-wide
adventure. The website, ToyVoyagers, lets you choose a temporary
home for your toy, wherever you please around the world, and off they
go.
You can use the travel log to write to your toy, as well as send and
receive pictures from them. Once you want them back, you just contact
your toy's hosts and ask them to return them to their rightful owner.
2. Extreme Ironing, UK

This, as you might imagine, involves grooming your dog in the most
eccentric way you can. While this hobby takes a lot of time, if you're
successful enough, you can win up to $30,000 from a single event.
4. Mooing, USA

Who knew that resembling this could net you some cash?
In Wisconsin, USA, a competition takes place in which competitors

year-old boy named Austin, who received $1,000, a cow print jacket,
and a golden cow bell among other prizes.
5. Train Surfing, Germany

This began in Germany in the 80s, and it's as dangerous as it sounds.

hitching a ride. Over 40 people in Germany died in 2008 alone from
attempting to train surf.
6. Tattooing Vehicles, Taiwan

In 2009, a man phoned the Dutch authorities to report the theft of his
ecstasy collection. This included over 2,400 tablets, which he kept in

missing as he was concerned that the collection could be very
dangerous.
