Growing up, I would sob anytime I put any sort of pressure on a loose tooth, and I convinced myself that I could live my life with baby teeth, so it is quite incredible to see this girl not hesitate at all when removing a loose tooth with a sling bow.



The best part of this video is the brave 11-year-old girl throwing up her hands in victory in slow motion. The worst part is her father, who is filming, allowing her to do this, and for being more concerned about where the tooth landed than how his daughter is. Although he is wearing jean shorts, which is also a cause for concern.

Something tells me this girl would survive in "The Hunger Games."

Life hacks, which offer an array of convenient tricks involving everything from summer barbecues to getting wasted at summer barceques, are incredibly helpful and often insanely brilliant. Occasionally, however, the only thing truly clever about them is that the person who came up with such an idea has managed to survive as long as they have. Hence, we present you with the following collection of some of the worst life hacks we've found on the Internet. Warning: these workarounds are almost more inconvenient (and certainly more dangerous) than the initial problem was in the first place.

Stopgap Headlights

♫ We can drive it ho-o-ome with one Ziploc. ♫

Mobile Shade

We sure hope that's not one of those umbrellas with a curved handle.

Bucket Helmet

For the hardass with a hollow head.

Backyard Grill Cart

Realistically, the steaks should have been replaced with cans of baked beans.

Jug Head

It certainly looks like a contraption you'd want to stand directly under.

Improv Water Heater

Hey MacGyver, that's not even a real candle.

Sour Curtain

For that fresh out of a dumpster feeling.

Pair of Chute Pants

As in "garbage chute."

Make Your Own Table Saw

When safety isn't an option.

Oscillating Leaf Blower

That's leaf - singular.

Industrial Laptop Fan

The Hot-N-Ready in between seems a bit counterproductive, no?

Industrial-Sized Laptop

This little number, however, is all about productivity.

Makeshift Snow Plow

Snowed in? Have a refrigerator handy? Problem solved!

Motorized Bicycle

And you thought getting the chainsaw started was the scariest part.

No More Tears Mask

Now that's what we call onionerotic asphyxiation.

Tubebrush Holder

We'd say it looks like this person doesn't give a crap, but then where'd the tube come from?

Cardboard Wet Bar

Warning: Can't get wet

Bedside Duct Tape Pouches

You're wasting our ducting time.

Cup Holder Boot

In Soviet Russia, cup boots you.

Chair Recliners

The trick is to shake them up real good first.

Soda Bottle Bed Frame

The money you'll save can go straight back into your ginger ale fund.

Home Security System

Just set the alarm (AKA tie the fraying shoestring), climb out the window, and no one's getting in ever again. Including you.

Electronic Sandwich Warmer

Remember to take small bytes.

AA Cell Phone Battery

Sadly, it's still the second worst cell phone-related idea we've seen in the past week.

Lite-Not-So-Brite

We're guessing when the light bulb in this person's head went off, it looked very similar.

Here are a bunch of really funny tweets from people who have certainly been there and will help you find a silver lining in your misery.

It was open season for one educator, as yet another teacher, just like this one, has been caught having sex with students and sent to jail.



Jennifer Fichter, a 30-year-old teacher (former now) from Florida, was sentence to 22 years in jail after it was discovered that she had been having sex with three 17-year-old students. Jennifer allegedly had her young lovers lie to their parents about their whereabouts, when in reality they were hooking up with her in her truck, hotels, her apartment, and to keep the romance alive, the roof of the school.

This was not the first time that Jennifer had become a tad too close with her students, as back in 2008 she was fired from her teaching job after being allegedly very inappropriate with an 8th grader. Three years later, the Central Florida Aerospace Academy decided to take her on as a teacher, and of course, Jennifer was back at it, reeling in her three lovers.

Jennifer pleaded guilty to 37 counts of unlawful sexual conduct with a minor in 2014, and she has finally been handed her sentence.

Check out Jennifer apologizing for her dirty deeds below.

We recently discovered a brilliant campaign that encourages people to Photoshop male nipples over female nipples in order to make them acceptable for society to look at, and not an offensive sight that will corrupt our nation's youth. Here's how it works:



This is obviously the next step in advancing the #FreeTheNipple campaign, with the goal being to fight the sexist guidelines of Instagram and Facebook. The clear double standard here cannot be more evident, and because we are all for progress and change, we are jumping on board. So, here are several topless celebs, including many #FreeTheNipple advocates, with the totally SFW male nipple covering up their offensive female nips. We feel safer already.

Comedian Kurt Braunohler wants to bring randomness to an otherwise bleak world. So, how does he plan on doing it?

You guessed it: By driving a giant ass with a heart-shaped "Butt" tattoo on it across the country.

According to UPI, he is also doing it in hopes that his pilot "Better. Dumber. Faster. with Kurt Braunohler" gets picked up by Comedy Central.



Braunohler calls it "The Love Butt," and he decided to drive it from Los Angeles to Virginia "for no other reason than it's dumb and funny and hopefully will surprise people."

Well, that and a chance to get picked up by Comedy Central, Kurt.

Hey, even if the show doesn't get picked up by the cable network, at least Braunohler can say that he got 54 seconds of airtime on a Charlottesville local news report, which is a hell of a lot more than Katt Williams is doing these days.

Here's a woman who can't drive across the country in a Fiat: And The World's Biggest Butt Belongs To...

Eating BBQ, attending roof parties, and watching fireworks are usually part of most people's 4th of July celebrations, but New England's Patriots Julian Edelman's Super Bowl ring, yes, his ring, may have had a better holiday than you.



Nothing like spending your fourth of July in between breasts, just like our founding fathers would have wanted. Either she asked this photo to be taken, or someone is making better use of their selfie stick.

If you want to see the face attached to those boobs, head here, and let's all act like preteen boys. Another thing our founding fathers wanted.

Epic Tour de France Crash Is The Best We've Ever Seen

Surprisingly, the crash was not a result of a cyclist blowing through a stop sign.

According to the Daily Mail, more than 20 bikers in the Tour de France, including Yellow Jersey wearer Fabian Cancellara, were involved in an epic high-speed crash this afternoon that brought the Super Bowl of cycling to a halt for more than 10 minutes.


Four riders involved in the crash weren't able to finish the remaining 50 kilometers of Stage Three, but Cancellara wasn't one of them, as he managed to make it across the finish line despite flipping over his handlebars while traveling at approximately 80 kmh and...wait for it...breaking his L3 and L4 vertebrae.

The broken vertebrae mean Cancellara's Tour de France is over, and that's bad news for him and his fans. But the good news is that people are paying attention to cycling again, even if it's just for one day.

Here's an extended look at the huge crash:

For those that thought twerking was just a phase, you may want to think again as now there are twerking fitness classes being offered.



From fitness studios in Los Angeles, to Arizona, to even the hole that is Florida, twerk classes are now a thing that you can attend, and Twerk Out Workout in Atlanta can even arrive at your bachelorette party to teach you how to twerk as well.

These twerking exercises combine pole dancing or toning classes, and can help you burn up to 1000 calories, and make you the envy of all your friends when you go to the club. All your basic friends will be throwing out their back trying to be as good as you, probably.

While here in America we are just getting all these very important classes that were desperately needed, it's in Europe where they have become a massively popular trend, led by "Twerk Queen" Anet Antosova. Anet is like the Beyonce of twerking, which is an analogy I expect everyone to understand for me, and then explain to me later.



Anet leads twerk workshops all over Europe, which I'm assuming is a tad more entertaining than all those writing workshops I once considered taking, until the Internet distracted me from productivity.

Check out Anet in all her twerking glory below.

GQ found a way to make this summer even hotter by naming Charlotte McKinney their "Girl of Summer." Of course, you can't do so without snapping dozens of pictures and putting together a teaser video for it.

The video is above, and here are some of the sexy shots:












The star of "Joe Dirt 2" also sat down with the magazine to discuss her career so far and what she has planned for the future. She said she wasn't too thrilled about her time on "Dancing With The Stars," but being on the set of comedies seems to rock her boat these days.

"I love being on-set with funny guys," McKinney said. "I like being on-set with camera guys. And then I did 'Joe Dirt 2' with David Spade, and the second I got on that set, I was just laughing."

Well then! It looks like we have one reason - and one reason only - to actually watch that movie now.

If you want to get your name in the Guinness World Record books, you are going to have to make some sacrifices, and the man below did just that in order to accomplish his goal.



Jack "Mr. Pogo" Sexty set the world record for the most consecutive pogo stick bounces with 88,047 bounces, a record that took him 10 hours and 20 minutes to complete. And that is all quite useless and impressive at the same time, but what might be even more impressive is what occurred when Jack had to take door number two.

While bouncing his way into the record books, and making his parents proud, Mr. Pogo was so nervous, apparently, that he had to drop some timber, helped by a stranger who offered to hold a pot for him. Yes, a stranger offered to hold a pot so that Jack could go. These records are important, people!

"I had only met the guy who offered to hold it about 48 hours before," Jack reveals. Now they are friends for life. Or enemies, depending if Jack missed the pot or not.

The 25-year-old has many records, including the longest distance traveled on a pogo stick as well as the fastest marathon pogo, but now he can always hold his head up high and impress the ladies knowing that he successfully (hopefully) took a dump while on a pogo stick.

And now he has something to add to his Tinder bio too.

Attention...you might feel a little tougher than you actually are when you have a bat in your hands. But that's no excuse to go around causing fights with guys twice your size. Take this idiot, for example, who clearly underestimated what was going to happen here. Maybe he thought the guy would just give him a little shove to get him out of his personal space and then they'd call it a day. Well, shove he did. With his fist. In the side of the kid's face. And the little idiot went down hard.

Sophie Reade holds little back when it comes to her bare-all bosom parties, as you can tell from her recent video with Zoo Today. Dressed in the shimmering blackness of sexy lingerie, Sophie turns all our dials to hot as she bends, shakes and poses for us in what feels like our own private champagne room. Tag along as this busty, blonde-haired, blue-eyed Brit teaches you a little about the art of seduction and the pain of the long distance Internet relationship. Oh, Sophie Reade, don't ever quit your day job.

Look up. Is there anything making its way down from the heavens to collide with your dome? No? Good, you can read the rest of this article safely. Throughout human history, there have been reports of bizarre cascades of odd objects falling from the sky, and most of them have gone completely unexplained. In this feature, we'll tell ten stories of very unusual types of rain.

Toads

One of the most common animals to fall from the sky is the humble toad - even the Bible has a story about poor hapless amphibians raining down on Egypt in the Book of Exodus. Waterspouts can lift huge numbers of frogs and toads into the air and deposit them miles away, and that's in all likelihood what happened in Lalain, France in 1794 during the French Revolutionary War. While a contingent of French soldiers squared off with the Austrians, a huge rainfall brought in a deluge of toads so potent that the men needed to abandon their trenches to wait it out. When it ended, they were shocked to discover hundreds of toads in the folds of their clothing and the brims of their hats. (Photo Credit: TCDavis via Flickr CC)

Spiders

Just as a warning, many of the items in this list will probably trigger some serious heebie-jeebies in the phobic. If you're afraid of things crawling on you, you might want to click forward to the next one. In 2007, a group of people took a trip to the Salta province of Argentina for Spring Break. While hiking up the San Bernardo mountain, they noticed an unusual number of spiders covering the ground. One looked up to discover the reason: arachnids were falling from the sky in droves. Hundreds of spiders floated through the air, many unfurling tendrils of webbing as they fell. Amazingly, he kept the presence of mind to snap pictures, which are extremely creepy. (Photo Credit: Hpatey via Flickr CC)

Worms

Gym class is already pretty unpleasant when you're in elementary school, but an unexplained rain of wriggling earthworms makes it that much worse. In 2011, a group of second year boys at Scotland's Galashiel Academy were out playing a game of soccer during phys ed when they heard a bizarre noise. It turned out to be hundreds of worms plummeting from the sky onto them. Needless to say, the kids ran off screaming to hold class inside. There's still no explanation for what caused the unusual invertebrate rain, but freak weather is the most likely suspect. (Photo Credit: Guilhem Vellut via Flickr CC)

Golf Balls

It used to be that golf balls were a valuable enough commodity that teenagers could make decent money by recovering them from lakes and hazards, washing them off and re-selling them to the course. So it must have been a wild time in the Florida town of Punta Gorda one night in 1969, when a massive, unexpected rain of golf balls fell from the sky. The balls were distributed all over town, and police had no explanation for them. The most likely event that happened is that a small localized typhoon sucked up water from a pond at a nearby course, bringing a payload of hundreds of lost balls with it. (Photo Credit: Team Holdatzky Photography via Flickr CC)

Meat

The Great Kentucky Meat Shower is one of the most disgusting aerial downpours ever recorded. In 1876, a small area in Bath County, Kentucky was deluged with ragged, bleeding chunks of unidentified meat for several minutes. Because this was a less hygienic time, a few bystanders actually picked up chunks of the meat and ate it, stating that it tasted like venison or mutton. Samples were taken for analysis, but the primitive tools of the day couldn't figure out if it was the meat of a horse or a human infant. The most believable explanation is that a group of buzzards flying over decided to simultaneously vomit recently-eaten carrion into the town for reasons nobody will ever know. (Photo Credit: Grant Hutchinson via Flickr CC)

A Live Shark

Well, this is horrifying. A golf course in San Juan Capistrano (what is it with golf and weird stuff falling from the sky) got a surprise visit in 2012 when a two-foot leopard shark came plummeting out of the air and landed on the 12th tee. The shocked fish was amazingly still alive when it hit the green, and an employee managed to rush it back to the clubhouse, submerge it in salt water and save the poor dumb animal's life. The general consensus is that a bird snatched the shark from the water to eat it, discovered it bit off more than it could chew and dropped it in a panic, hoping the golfers would just play through. (Photo Credit: Rad Carper via Flickr CC)

Orange Snow

Snow is a pretty normal weather condition, especially in Siberia. But one February in 2007 saw a snow fall unlike anything the Omsk region has ever seen. An area of almost 580 square miles was covered by a bizarre cold, orange substance that was greasy to the touch and contained tremendously elevated quantities of iron. Authorities claimed that the bizarre snowfall wasn't dangerous to humans, but still recommended that people or livestock not ingest it. The general belief was that it was caused by particulate matter from a sandstorm in Kazakhstan being sucked into a storm cloud. (Photo Credit: via Youtube)

Fish

Alaska is one of the United States' most prolific fishing states, with trawlers heading out to the Pacific to catch all manner of edible sea creatures. Residents of Fairbanks, however, weren't too happy to see foot-long Arctic lampreys earlier in 2015, mostly because they were on their front lawns. The massive, eel-like fish have no jaws, instead boasting a horrifying suction ring lined with teeth. The nightmarish beasts were probably dropped on the town by gulls who picked them up for food and changed their minds. (Photo Credit: BrianEyes)

Money

Not all rains are horrifying - a German woman in the small town of Worms got an unexpected blessing from above in 2007 as she was driving one day. She first noticed a weird atmospheric anomaly in her rear view mirror, but as she got closer discovered that it was a small blizzard of Euro notes falling from the sky. The woman frantically tried to grab as much of it as she could while driving, and then in an act of civic responsibility took her haul to the police. The woman and the cops returned to the scene, but couldn't find any more money and the mysterious currency rain has to this day not been accounted for. (Photo Credit: via Youtube)

A Cow

Most of the animals that we've featured in this list are relatively lightweight, so it's not terribly shocking that they wound up several hundred feet above land. But a dairy cow? It happened in 1997. When a rescue crew picked up the survivors of a sunken boat in the Sea of Japan, they were flabbergasted by the excuse given for the shipwreck by the sailors: a cow had fallen out of the sky and punched a hole right through their hull. Further investigation revealed the men were telling the truth - a Russian cargo plane had swiped a cow from a field, but when the bovine started freaking out on the flight, they pushed it out the hold over the ocean, where by a ridiculous stroke of luck it turned into a mooing meteor and smashed the ship.
