An Australian man recently fell off his bike when he was riding it on a trail near Sydney, but it's not the hit to his pride or "minor abrasions" on his knee that had him fuming afterward. Literally.

Gareth Clear said he quickly noticed that there was smoke coming out of his right leg, and it was the result of his iPhone 6 catching fire at some point during the tumble last Sunday afternoon.

"And there was a searing pain that went along with it – as though someone had pushed a huge block of ice against my leg," Clear said. "It was pretty freaking painful."

The phone explosion melted not only Clear's thick biking shorts but also the Skins he was wearing underneath them. In fact, the phone had also melted, and the combo of all of that melted shit became stuck on Clear's right leg, resulting in third-degree burns and this gnarly battle scar:

Clear needed a skin graft to repair his thigh and will have to spend the majority of this week attached to a machine that will help heal the wound. Plus, he now has no way to play "Pokémon Go," and that might be the most painful part of the story.

Being someone's boyfriend is a challenge. Relationships in general are complicated at best. But one thing that almost every man instinctively knows to do is protect the woman they love. Then, there's this guy:


The video, which has already received a slew of angry comments on Reddit, may not necessarily tell the whole story, but from what you see, it's pretty obvious that the girl slips while trying to attempt a sweet jump, only to then lose her footing and grasp at her boyfriend's leg to try and save herself. Seems like all he'd really have to do is not move, but he can't even get that part right.

So what do you think? Are you looking at a douchey guy who doesn't care about his girlfriend's well-being in the slightest, or was it simply a natural reaction to getting grabbed by someone who is only going to take you down with them?

Well, I'm sure if you try hard enough, you can still find a way to make it quack.

An Australian woman at the Samuel Renfrey Reserve in Mandurah recently snapped a photo of what she thought was a "duck relaxing by the grassy banks of a pond." There was something weird about this duck, though, as it didn't move the entire time she stood there snapping photos of it.

And that probably had something to do with the fact that it was actually a massive black dildo. Take a look at the picture below shared on Facebook:


Samsonite? I was way off.

It's unknown if the woman was more excited about her picture after she realized what it was, but if Australian women are anything like their American counterparts, odds are her friends aren't going to be hearing from her for the rest of the week, as she'll likely be busy tending to her new duck and making sure it has everything it needs.

Hey, condoms are important these days.

According to The Smoking Gun, you don't dick around when talking about condoms with Andrew Lavigne, as the 23-year-old was arrested last Friday night for pulling a knife on a male acquaintance during an argument over rubbers.


It's unknown whether Lavigne thought jimmy hats were the devil's work or if he was just trying to make an open-and-shut case for papa-stoppers that are ribbed for her pleasure, but police said he followed 25-year-old Bryan Ruiz up the stairs at a Myrtle Beach home around 9 p.m. and threatened to "kill him and the person he was sleeping with."

At that point, Ruiz took matters into his own hands and punched Lavigne in the face. When police arrived on the scene and asked Lavigne for his side of the story, he allegedly just started crying.

Even in South Carolina, you can't threaten another man with a knife during an argument over dick domes, so Lavigne was arrested and slapped with a felony assault charge.

I'll be honest: If an ounce of ass sweat was worth six bucks, then it looks as though ESPN's Chris Berman would be a billionaire.

Real golfers will be competing for their share of a $6.6 million purse at this weekend's Travelers Championship in Cromwell, Connecticut, but it was the celebrity hackers who played 18 holes Wednesday afternoon during the Travelers Pro-Am.

Among the celebrities teeing it up at TPC River Highlands were Kevin Nealon, Doug Flutie, Luke Wilson, Jim Calhoun, Kevin Ollie, Ray Allen, Tim Wakefield and of course, Chris "Boomer" Berman. It was a beautiful 85 degree afternoon for the celebs, although you wouldn't have guessed it after looking at the six gallons of ass sweat leaking from Berman's khakis:

Boomers swamp ass......back, back,back,back.......... pic.twitter.com/tbPi9eeeJp

I mean, look at this thing:


If you had told us that Berman's fat ass was playing on a course in Palm Springs when somebody snapped this photo, I'd get it. After all, it's the desert, bro.

But yeah, that just looks and probably smells awful.

They say if you've got it, flaunt it. While some may argue that feeding malaria-riddled starving children in third-world countries might be a better alternative, Kate Moss simply needed her golden vibrator. But more on that later. Here are some head-scratching celebrity purchases to feed your envy.

Charlie Sheen bought 2,615 seats at an Anaheim Angels game to catch a home run.

In 1996, Sports Illustrated reported that the King of Hookers and Cocaine paid a total of $6,500 to catch a Cecil Fielder homer. He and two friends sat beyond the left field fence, but alas, there wouldn't be a home run hit that game. In typical Sheen fashion, he said, "I didn't want to crawl over the paying public. I wanted to avoid the violence."


Donald Trump's plane has a gold bathroom.

Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump is something of a Goldmember. After purchasing Trump Force One from Microsoft cofounder Paul Allen, he completed a series of renovations that included installing Rolls Royce engines, personal TV screens in every seat and even 24-carat gold plated seat belts. If elected, he will probably prefer this $100 million aerial treasure trove to Air Force One.


Kim Basinger bought an entire town for $20 million.

After "The Natural" and "9½ Weeks," Kim Basinger had enough f--k you money to purchase an entire town in Georgia. Braselton's population of nearly 8,000 didn't take kindly to the investment, and they received their wish when five years later, Basinger went broke and had to sell the town...for $1 million. In other words, she lost $19 million in five years.


Kanye West bought 10 Burger Kings.

In March 2014, Kanye, also known as Yeezy, Yeezus, and The Louis Vuitton Don, bought Kim Kardashian 10 Burger King franchises as a wedding gift. Two years later, he asked Mark Zuckerberg for $1 billion to help him with his $53 million debt. The Burger Kings were scattered across Italy, France and the UK, and reportedly cost $7.5 million.


Paris Hilton bought a $325,000 doghouse.

Paris Hilton's dogs -- Tinkerbell, Prince Baby Bear, Marilyn Monroe, Harajuku, Dolce and Prada -- live in a house more expensive than most Americans'. This two-story, air-conditioned, designer-furniture-adorned home is a veritable doggy mansion, and it should piss you off.


Lady Gaga spent $50,000 on a ghost detecting machine.

Spoiler: It didn't work. Professional ghost hunters -- aka silly people using electromagnetic field meters -- catch spooks in action. In 2010 during a European tour, Ms. Gaga laid down the price of a 2015 Mercedes Benz to purchase ghost equipment. It was seemingly an attempt to catch a spirit called Ryan, which she claims haunts her incessantly. As an inside source told The Daily Star, "She's been telling us all for months that she has a male spirit called Ryan who travels the world with her. She's pretty terrified by this spirit, but more than anything he's annoying her as he won't leave her alone." We're sure Ryan died of laughter after her $50,000 splurge.


Kate Moss bought a gold vibrator.

The queen of the heroin chic look was spotted in New York City purchasing a Jimmyjane "Little Something" 24-carat vibrator from La Petite Coquette. Although it only sells for $350, the English supermodel was apparently desperate for some love after breaking up with Libertines vocalist Pete Doherty, whose teeth are less than 24-carat.


Katy Perry spent $200,000 to send Russell Brand to space.

It's a good idea at face value -- sending Russell Brand to space. But even I wouldn't shell out $200,000 to do it, nor could I. Albeit, it was his birthday, so Perry commandeered Richard Branson's Virgin Galactic in 2010 to catapult him 350,000 feet into the air. He came back down and filed for divorce.


T-Pain bought a big ass chain for $410,000.

Literally, that's what it said: BIG ASS CHAIN. T-Pain boasts a net worth of $35 million, but it's important to note that $410,000 could feed everyone in Haiti for a day. At least it's clever.


Rick Ross claims he blew a million dollars on strippers.

However, the claim came from Rick Ross, which is dubious at best. In February 2011, Ross went to Florida's King of Diamonds strip club for his birthday. He told Hot 97, "It's nothing to go in there and have 50 ballplayers and some street dudes. It ain't nothing to spend some real change in King of Diamonds. Well that night, we broke the club."

Although due to IRS concerns, he didn't disclose the exact amount, Ross said it hovered in the ballpark of $1 million. "We ran through so much money, the Brinks truck came, and that didn't even help." I'm inclined to call bullshit, because he stole the name of an actual baller, but rappers do some surprising things.


Waka Flocka Flame Offered a $50,000 Salary for a Professional Blunt Roller

"I might not smoke a blunt for two days, three days. But then one day you might run through 100 blunts. You might end up rolling up a quarter pound. I'm talking about finger cramps." In late 2014, rapper Waka Flocka sent out a public occupational request for one special blunt roller. He received over 60,000 resumes over the next several months, although one has to wonder what those resumes were like.

I Stayed In The Cecil Hotel Before Elisa Lam's Body Was Discovered In The Water Tank

One of the most bizarre stories I've ever heard is the still unsolved death of Elisa Lam. She was a 21-year-old student from Vancouver that was found dead inside a water tank on top of the Cecil Hotel in downtown Los Angeles.

Elisa Lam's body was discovered on February 19, 2013, after she had been reported missing a month earlier.


The only reason she was discovered is because guests had complained that the water was coming out black and had a bad taste to it.

A few days before her body was discovered the police released a bizarre security camera video of Lam in the hotel's elevator. Here it is:


Her behavior is certainly unusual, but many blamed it on her bipolar disorder, which might explain why she seems so paranoid and appears to be hiding from someone or something. But the discovery of her body raised many more questions that, as of now, still can't be answered.

There was nothing shown in her toxicology report that would explain her behavior. There was also no sign of trauma to suggest that she was murdered. So how is it possible that she got into the water tank? The roof isn't accessible to guests and if the roof door is opened, an alarm sounds that alerts the front desk as well as multiple floors of the hotel. And even if she did somehow get onto the roof, how did she get inside the tank? The hatch is huge, so she would have had to open it up, climb inside, then pull down the massive hatch with her inside.

The hotel certainly has a disturbing background. Serial killers Jack Unterwegar and Richard Ramirez both lived there at one point, which is never great for your brand. It's also one of the last places where the Black Dahlia was spotted and multiple guests committed suicide by jumping out of their room's windows. It was even the inspiration for the hotel season of "American Horror Story." The hotel has since been refurbished and rebranded as the Stay on Main.


In 2012, a few months before Elisa Lam checked in, I spent four days at the Cecil Hotel. It was actually my first trip to Los Angeles and I was going with my friend Matt, who had also never been. We were clearly unfamiliar with the layout of the city and assumed downtown would be a good, central location. Obviously, that was a mistake.

The hotel was one of the most eerie places I've ever been in my life. It's located right around the corner from Skid Row, so it certainly doesn't evoke a safe or secure feeling when walking up. The rooms still used actual keys and the whole place felt more like a haunted house than a working hotel.

Our room was outdated and seemed like no one had done anything more than make the bed for years. There was a TV, but no cable or even local channels. It was just static.



The elevator shook and was slow to open or close, as evident in the security footage of Elisa Lam, so we mostly took the stairs. All of those things were bad, but absolutely nothing compared to the bathroom. I've seriously never seen a hotel bathroom like it before.

Instead of having an actual tub or shower separate from the rest of the bathroom, there was nothing more than a showerhead coming out of the wall that sprayed all over the room. You could actually sit on the toilet and get soaked by the showerhead. The drain was in the corner, so after someone took a shower, no one else could use the bathroom until it had time to dry.

By the second night the drain had clogged and there was at least an inch of standing, stagnant water permanently on the bathroom floor.


We called the front desk to tell them there was a problem, and they said they were aware of it and as soon as they could remedy it they would. Shockingly, they never fixed it. That meant you couldn't even brush your teeth, let alone take a shower. Since we were leaving the next day we decided just to suffer through it.


It's no surprise whatsoever that the hotel was attractive to murderers and tragedies. Given the location and the very clear indication that no one was putting any effort into it anymore meant that complaints would go unnoticed and even the most troubling or bizarre behavior wouldn't draw attention.

It's a very good thing the hotel was renovated. With such a lack of attention, there's very little doubt that more crime and issues would have come from within the walls of the Cecil Hotel. Maybe if more care and effort were put into running the place, Elisa Lam wouldn't have ended up in their water tank. We'll never know for sure.

Here's a video of the hotel's condition just before it was redone:

Pokémon Go took the world by storm, but by removing features instead of fixing them and poor customer relations, Niantic, the company behind the game, may be killing it just as quickly. No matter if you're still trying to catch 'em all or the updates have caused you to give up, you'll definitely find some laughs in these wonderful tweets.

10 Insane Sports Curses That Might Be Real

Sports fans are a superstitious, cowardly lot. In an intersection of probabilities as complex as professional athletics, with dozens of insanely gifted competitors on either side, it can be almost impossible for the human brain to rationally process events. So we instead turn to the metaphysical and the mystical. Case in point: the classic "sports curse," where a series of coincidences get combined to indicate higher forces at play. They're all bunk, right? We're not so sure. Read on to learn about ten sports curses that might have a little more to them.

The Billy Goat Curse

Animal sacrifice is a key element of many religious rites, but how can a single goat doom a baseball team to seventy years of failure? When an irascible local pub owner named Billy Sianis brought his pet goat Murphy to the fourth game of the 1945 World Series, Cubs management forced him to leave the stadium due to his animal's smell. On his way out the door, Sianis yelled "Them Cubs, they ain't gonna win no more!" History has proven him right. Since 1945, the Chicago Cubs haven't made it to the World Series once. How can they dispel this curse? Maybe inviting a herd of goats to Wrigley Field for a game would do it.


The Curse Of Bobby Layne

When a player is traded from a team they've bonded with, it can be a bit like going through a messy divorce. Tempers flare, and sometimes accidental invocations of dark powers can place irreversible hexes on the guilty. When the Detroit Lions traded an injured Bobby Layne--the man who had led the team to three NFL championships--in 1958, he reportedly responded by saying that the Lions "would not win for 50 years." Guess what? He was right. The Lions plummeted to the bottom of the league's rankings, holding the worst record of any NFL franchise. In 2008, the last year of the curse, they became the first team to ever go an entire season without a single win.


The Talladega Jinx

Crashing is just a part of NASCAR, but some people believe that one of the country's most famous racetracks has a spiritual vortex that inspires disaster. Legend has it that a Native American shaman placed a curse on the land when his tribe was forced off of it long ago. The track has a reputation for bizarre events, like when driver Bobby Isaac got out of his car because he heard mysterious voices talking to him, or the massive 21-car wreck in 1973 that many drivers call the worst they've ever seen. Bizarre events have happened every few years since, and nobody has a good explanation as to why.


The Cardinals Curse

Many sports curses root from one single traumatic moment, and the reason the Arizona Cardinals might be a legendarily sucky team could date all the way back to 1925. Lore goes that the Pottsville Maroons should have won the NFL championships that year, but they were suspended from the league after playing an unauthorized exhibition game. The Cardinals--then in Chicago--quickly arranged a few authorized games against tomato can teams (at least one of which featured high school players!) to beat their record and win the title. That underhanded maneuvering enraged Pottsville fans, who put a hex on the Cards that has dogged them to the present day. They remain the NFL team with the longest championship drought.


The Witch Doctor Curse

Most of the curses on this list have been perpetrated by amateurs, but in at least one case, a sports team deliberately tampered with forces beyond their control and got screwed for it. At the 1970 World Cup Qualifier in Mozambique, Australia's Socceroos consulted a local witch doctor for help in their match with Rhodesia. They won, but when it came time to pay the shaman the $1000 he wanted, the team skipped out. He vowed revenge, and in their next game three players got sick and they lost, eliminating them from the tournament. Since then, no Socceroos squad made it to the World Cup until TV host John Safran traveled back to Mozambique and hired another witch doctor to reverse the curse.


The Curse Of Coogan's Bluff

Teams moving locations seems to really upset the spirits, but there's one player in particular we can blame for the Curse of Coogan's Bluff. The New York Giants played at the Polo Grounds, where a plaque in center field commemorated Eddie Grant, the first MLB player killed in World War I. When the Giants announced their move to San Francisco, the plaque vanished when fans rushed the field at the last Polo Grounds game. The team's World Series luck came crashing to a halt, including their loss in the '89 series that saw a huge earthquake delay the game. When a replacement plaque was installed in AT&T Park in 2006, it lifted the curse and the Giants went on to win the Series in 2010, 2012 and 2014.


The Curse Of Billy Penn

Sometimes sports curses come at you from beyond the grave. A statue of William Penn stood atop Philadelphia's City Hall for decades, and the city's Art Commission had an unspoken rule that no building would be constructed higher than Penn's eye level. In 1987, they broke that rule with the construction of One Liberty Place. No sooner did the building go up than all of Philly's previously dominant sports teams took a nosedive into the toilet. For the next 20 years, no Philadelphia team would take home a world title. The curse ended in 2008 when the Phillies won the World Series after ironworkers put up a new statue of Penn atop the Comcast Center, giving him back his unobstructed view.


The Madden Curse

One would think that being tapped to appear on the cover of EA's insanely popular Madden NFL games would be a good thing. But if you examine the careers of the football players who have done it since 1999, you'll notice a troubling trend. Nearly every athlete who gets the cover slot goes on to have a pretty terrible season. From Garrison Hearst in 1999 who would break his ankle and not play again until 2001, to Michael Vick being injured less than a week after the game came out in 2004, to Adrian Peterson being suspended for child abuse in 2014, the Madden curse certainly seems legit. The game's developers deny any occult doings behind the scenes, but you'd expect they would.


The Red Devils Curse

Colombian soccer team América de Cali's logo is a red devil, and many players believe that the horned one was responsible for the team's disastrous three-decade run. The story goes that in 1948 the team's owners were in heated discussion about transferring América de Cali into the professional league. One owner was so against it that he said "I swear to God they will never be champions!" He was right, sadly--the team has never made it all the way to the Cup. Although, after an exorcism on their home field in 1980, they went on to win five national championships, meaning the curse got weakened a little bit but not broken.


Bambino's Curse

When a team trades away one of the most legendary ballplayers of all time, it can create severe disruptions in the fabric of reality. In 1919, the Boston Red Sox made one of the dumbest plays of all time by trading Babe Ruth off to the Yankees. Prior to that trade, the Sox were one of the most dominant teams in the country, winning the first World Series and steamrolling almost everybody in their path. After the trade, they went 86 years before winning another Series in 2004. Meanwhile, the Yankees became one of the most successful teams in history. Lord knows why the curse wore off, but maybe Ruth's potent mystical presence finally departed this plane for the afterlife.

Celebrity Men's Most Pathetic and Creepy Attempts At A Mustache

Of all the worst and most disturbing mustaches, you'll be surprised at how many of them belong to celebrity men, people with money who are viciously monitored by society. Here are some of celebrity mustachioed men's most pathetic attempts at honing the art of the dirt lip. Mustache? More like must-not-ache! We can't all be as classy as "Magnum P.I." now, can we?

Michael Cera

The once adorable adolescent-looking actor grew a mustache and then just started looking like every other creep in town. We caught a glimpse of it on film with "Youth in Revolt." Just kidding, we love Michael, and we still pee a little when we watch "Superbad."

John Travolta

He's been in "Grease" and faced off with Nic Cage, the infamous actor of many terrible hair styles. Travolta, who's brought plenty of hilarious attention to himself, only makes things worse with the plastic surgery, scientology and, of course, the creepy pencil-thin stache, which can be seen in the caper film, "The Taking of Pelham 123."

Daniel Craig

Just because he is no longer our Bond doesn't mean he can just go grossing everyone out with this near-pedophile strawberry blonde lip hair. Craig sported the blondish mustache in 2009 for a role on Broadway. You think he can get a Bond Girl with this look? Makes you wonder who the next Bond will be.

Colin Farrell

The Irish actor you wouldn't guess has an accent also has a difficult time pulling off a respectable dirt lip. Farrell has been seen a number of instances with such facial hair, most recently in the might-be cancelled crime thriller, HBO's "True Detective."

Tom Hanks

He's been on a deserted island with a hefty beard, went blonde for Clint Eastwood's new film and, as you can see, has also gone all gym teacher on us with a thick mustache. He's been quoted saying, "I can't grow a mustache." Well, Tom, awareness is the first step. We've seen Hanks with one in "Road to Perdition" and "Saving Mr. Banks," but this puppy takes the cake.

James Franco

He sported corn rows in "Spring Breakers," flown around like a crazed wacko in "Spider-Man 3" and done any number of art projects we can't keep up with, but Franco got our attention most when he moved the hair from his head to his lip.

Channing Tatum

Magic Mike might've had to take some time off to come up with this mouth mask for the 2011 thriller, "The Son of No One." Most girls will tell you he's the dreamboat they'd like to ride, but we're guessing those girls never saw him with pudding on his upper lip.

Jack Black

Jack is hilarious, but he has to try pretty hard at times, it seems. If we were any kind of friend, we'd tell Mr. Black that the lip fungus is not the way to go. Though it was appropriate for "Bernie," it's just not "appropes" for public.

Nicholas Cage

Of all the worst Nic Cage hairstyles, his mustaches seem to take the prize. Name any Nic Cage movie, and, dollars to donuts, he's either rocking a funky do ("Con Air") or an insane mustache "Raising Arizona."

Michael Jordan

To say that Michael Jordan's near-there Hitler mustache for Hanes was iconic might be using the wrong word. It definitely made a statement that says "only Michael Jordan can pull this off."

Vince Vaughn

Appropriately so, Vince Vaughn had the nasty throwback "stache" for the retro-fitted villain role in "Starsky & Hutch," costarring Ben Stiller and Owen Wilson. The classic handlebar mustache made its way into public a few times, but luckily those days are done.

Matthew McConaughey

Although his lonesome lip hair in the 2013 Oscar-worthy "Dallas Buyers Club" was one of the least attractive roles for the once Sexiest Man Alive, McConaughey was allowed the prestigious honor based on his sporting of one of the best mustaches ever as well in 1993's "Dazed & Confused:"

Britney Spears Pranks Jimmy Kimmel By Waking Him Up From His Deep Slumber

We all know that Jimmy Kimmel loves his pranks, but, as Kimmel would say himself, he prefers them when "they are on other people." That wasn't exactly the case this time around when none other than Britney Spears reeled in some help to prank the comedic host.

Kimmel must have been tired from sending out Miley Cyrus to prank people, and from making parents tell their kids they ate all the Halloween candy, because he was dead asleep when Spears entered his home aiming to wake him the hell up. Check out the funny prank below, as Spears uses her song "Make Me" as a wake up call.


I don't think many guys would be upset if Britney Spears entered their bedroom and woke them up. Also wouldn't be a bad thing if Rihanna woke them up either.

If there are any grandmas out there who use Facebook and actually know how to use it, we commend you, but chances are that your grandma just stays away from that hoopla all together or they ask someone to help them. Unfortunately for the grandma below neither was the case, as she tried to tackle Facebook all on her own. And of course she failed.

All that Mary wanted to do was to share a picture of her grandson, Charlie for his first day of school. And all she did was shock her family and friends. Take a look at what this sassy granny posted accidentally:


And that was the day Mary destroyed anything with a screen in her home. In other news, that knitting club sure is going to have a hell of a lot to talk about.

Is This A UFO Spotted Over The St. Louis Arch?

UFOs have been spotted everywhere for decades. But recently they've been spotted everywhere from Antartica to flying beside a plane. And this time around it seems like they decided to take a trip to St. Louis.

Chase Rhoads was smoking a cigarette a little past 2AM when he noticed a flashing light over the St. Louis Arch. Now for anyone who has seen the original "Independence Day," you know that the aliens situated themselves over landmarks, so this is a tad unsettling.

Rhoads began filming the lights once he noticed them. Take a look at his video below:


The National Park Service said it didn't have any reports of strange flights and no one reported anything out of the ordinary (although that's what they were forced to say! Probably). A nearby Air Force Base also said they had nothing to report.

A surveillance camera from the Malcolm W. Martin Memorial park also caught the lights on film. This is a longer video but you're able to see the light more clearly starting at the :55 second mark.


Maybe...

We still live in a mostly male dominated world, but powerful woman don't have to take it sitting down. Well, OK, maybe in the case of Maria Pettersson--sitting is a big part of her job, after all. The 32-year-old Ryanair pilot has taken the internet by surprise with her combination of fun cockpit selfies and empowering beach photos as she travels the world. But the main goal of her quirky Instagram account is feminist empowerment.

In her own words to Daily Mail Online, "I loved the positive feedback I was getting and all the curious questions from young aviators asking about how to become a pilot or flight simulator pilots asking about a specific procedure." She goes on: "My story is about strong females in a male dominated environment. Proving that we are just as good as them. Believing in ourselves and keeping a positive attitude towards life."

After becoming a pilot at 25 years old, Maria then went commercial by age 30, regularly flying a Boeing 737 which can hold nearly 200 passengers.

Originally from Sweden, but now residing in Sicily, the blonde bombshell constantly travels the world, loving what she does and documenting the full experience on her Instagram page, aptly titled @pilotmaria. Her personal blog also serves as a fine compliment to all the action. Enjoy just a few more of her fun photos for the road-- er, the sky.
