THERE’S nothing like deep love.
Scientists at the University of
Aberdeen have reportedly
unlocked the secret to Barry
White’s womanising success, his
deep voice.
According to the researchers,
women are more likely to
remember things said to them by
a deep male voice, and also use
vocal pitch as an assessor of male
genetic quality and behaviour.
THE price of looking good.
A 56-year old Chinese man, Zhang Nan, has ended up in hospital after a home beauty treatment went awfully wrong. The procedure involved swimming with live eels, which Nan was told would help to shave ten years off his looks as they would eat off his dead skin. To save money, Nan went to the markets, bought ten live six inch eels, got them home, popped them in a bathtub filled with water then hopped in. At first Nan enjoyed the wriggly eels eating off his skin, but after a short while he experienced a sharp stab of pain in his groin, and watched in horror as an eel began to worm up his urethra. “I tried to grab the eel to pull it out again but it was too slippery and disappeared,” he said. Nan overcame his embarrassment a few hours later when the worm didn’t reappear, and took himself to Wuhan People’s Hospital where doctors used an ultrasound to locate the wayward eel in his bladder. It took a three hour operation to remove the eel, which was deceased. Nan has now sworn off eel baths, and will instead pursue other means to retain his youth.
