It sounds like something I wanted to know as a child: is it possible to put a person through the mail?
One man has been desperate to find out, and he's already had two fairly unsuccessful tries at it. He shipped himself first by land, then by sea. In his final attempt to mail himself, he decided to try shipping by air.
Even though this sounds absolutely insane to most people, about 40-50 people die each year trying to mail themselves around the world. So, would this curious YouTuber figure out how to do it safely? Well, he filmed the whole thing, so let's find out how he did it and if he was successful.
The YouTuber, known as Kill'em, is based in the United Kingdom. The first thing he did was decide where he would mail himself. He bought a map of the world and dropped a dart to find out. The result? He was going to mail himself to the United States.
The completed box has a doorway at the top, and Kill'em explains that he is going to screw the lid up from the inside. This allows him to escape or give himself more air at any time without having to depend on being placed in a certain part of the cargo hold.
He buys snack foods and plenty of water to get him through the 24+ hours he'll be spending in the box. He also buys a child's training toilet to use for himself while inside the box. Gross.
After all that prep work, it's time to get in the box and actually mail himself. Kill'em's parents are incredibly patient and helpful, apparently, so they brought the box to the Post Office to do the deed.
After that, the plan starts to unfold. Kill'em's father will be waiting at a hotel in Los Angeles, where he'll pick up the crate. He's brought his passport along in the box so he'll be able to fly home, and in addition to the camera filming him, he's outfitted the crate with a spy camera so he can see what's happening outside.
Things start to become uncomfortable pretty quickly, and he worries the whole way about whether or not he'll be discovered and possibly get in legal trouble for this insane stunt. Still, he sticks through it the entire way.
Remember, kids: don't try this at home because it's definitely illegal to mail yourself, especially from one country to another. Still, part of me admires the tenacity of this idiot for trying such an insane stunt and ultimately seeing it through to the end. What do you think about his journey? Let us know in the comments.
If you consider your pets as family members, you'll agree that their health and well-being are top priorities. But as diligent as you may be about making sure they're happy and healthy, they can't outright tell you when they aren't feeling their best. That's why it's so important to watch out for symptoms that may indicate bigger problems. If your cats or dogs are experiencing any of the 10 warning signs below, it's definitely a good idea to take them to the vet. 1. If your cat or dog uncharacteristically starts having accidents in the house and drinks much more than usual, it may be a sign of diabetes, liver disease, kidney disease, or adrenal gland disease. Alternatively, if they're urinating much less frequently than normal, they could be dealing with a urinary tract problem or bladder stones. All of these symptoms are urgent and require a visit to the vet. Flickr / F. D. Richards 2. Occasional vomiting, especially with cats, i...
No matter where you are, belonging to the LGBTQ community practically guarantees receiving unsolicited hate and criticism from close-minded people. But in the United Arab Emirates (UAE), being openly gay could lead to more than just public scrutiny -- namely, a prison sentence, fines, or deportation. Even a cultural misunderstanding can get you arrested if it hints at homosexuality, as one unfortunate foreigner found out while visiting the country. In the UAE, having sexual relations outside a heterosexual marriage is punishable by law, and in Dubai, consensual sodomy is punishable by up to 10 years imprisonment. Simple PDAs aren't safe either if they're between members of the same sex, even if they're unintentional. Wikipedia That's what landed 27-year-old Jamie Harron behind bars back in July. The Scottish electrician was only supposed to be stopping in the country for two days after his business trip to Afghanistan, but he was facing three mon...
Men are often paired with the label of being strong, tough, and for the most part, unemotional human beings. While the former two words could accurately describe many people of the male variety, if you ask those closest to them, the latter just isn't true -- especially when it comes to those raising children. I've seen countless fathers sharing special moments with their little ones that would make even the most indifferent of hearts melt. The 13 sweet dads below are definitely no exception, as you'll see by the adorable bonds they share with their kids. 1. One doting dad started a chain reaction on Twitter when he posted a cute photo of himself and his little girl, describing how fatherhood "softened" him up.
