THE DEAD KANGAROO STORY

In 1987, the world's best sailors were competing in the America's Cup yacht race off the coast of Fremantle,
in Western Australia. One day, one of the sailors went for a drive in the outback and accidentally ran over a
kangaroo. The sailor got out and leaned the dead kangaroo against the side of the car. Then he decided to put
his America Cup team Jacket on the animal and take a few pictures to show his friends. However. It turned
out that the accident hadn't killed the animal, it had only knocked it out. While the sailor was taking some
photos, the kangaroo came round. Realising that something was wrong, the animal immediately ran away -
taking the sailor's jacket, his passport, three credit cards, and 51.000 in ash with it.
THE FALLING COW STORY In 1997 the crew of a Japanese fishing boat were rescued after that boat had
sunk in very unusual circumstances. According to the fishermen, the boat had been sailing in calm waters
when a cow fell from the sky and crashed through the boat. Unfortunately, the police thought the crew had
made the whole story up and arrested them. They remained in prison while the police tried to work out why
the boat had sunk. Eventually, the pilot of a Russian transport plane told the police what had happened.
Before they took off from their Siberian airbase, the plane crew had stolen some cows from a nearby field.
While they were flying at 25,000 feet, one cow broke free and stoned running around inside the plane. The
crew managed to push it out of the door and into the sea - or so they thought.
THE EXPLODING HOUSE STORY
A woman from California had been trying to get rid of all the bugs in her home for years but without
success. Then, in December 2001, she bought nineteen 'bug bombs', which are designed to spread insecticide

which warned that no more than one bomb should be used at any one time, and they should never be used
Indoors. All nineteen bug bombs went off at the same time, completely destroying the building and causing
over $150,000 worth of damage. A number of bugs were also hurt.
