Man Drags Helicopter With Penis, Breaks World Record

kung fu master who dragged seven cars with his penis has become a new world record holder by towing a helicopter even further with his manhood.

The Mirror Online reports that several hundred people as well as official adjudicators watched as Ye Hongwei, who goes by the stage name “Ye Wei,” towed the heavy military helicopter with a rope tied around his genitals.

Footage of the incredible feat shows him stuttering at first, unable to get the momentum needed to get the aircraft’s wheels rolling on the tarmac outside the hangar.

But he eventually summons the inner strength necessary to drag the helicopter over 10 metres (32 feet 9 inches) – beating his intended target of 8 metres (26 feet 3 inches).

He was then given his world record certificate by officials representing the World Record Academy.

Ye is from the city of Zibo in East China’s Shandong Province, where he has been practicing “zen tai chi” for over 30 years, but the feat was conducted in Fangshan District in Chinese capital Beijing.

Speaking after his successful attempt, Ye Wei said: “I don’t know why I struggled in the beginning. I felt a bit nervous and unsure.

“But I mustered up the energy needed and started the helicopter moving.”

He added proudly: “I will continue practicing so I can break new records in the future.”

In April, Ye towed seven Audis weighing 12.6 tonnes using his manhood, dragging the vehicles for a total of 8 metres (26 feet 3 inches).

That attempt broke his previous record of pulling five cars.

DEPRESSION: 7m Nigerians risk suicide

THE growing incidence of suicide among Nigerians has become worrisome to the extent that psychiatrists and other physicians have called for high index of suspicion for signs and symptoms of depression among their patients. They point to research which reveals that  during their lifetime about 3.0 per cent of Nigerians will have thoughts about ending their lives, while some will plan on how to kill themselves and actually carry out an attempt to kill themselves. According to the World Health Organisation, WHO, there are 322 million people living with depression in the world. In the WHO suicide ranking, Nigeria, with 15.1 suicides per 100,000 population per year, is ranked the 30th most suicide-prone out of 183 nations in the world. Nigeria also rates 10th in Africa after countries with higher rates of suicide such as Togo (ranked 26th in the world), Burkina Faso (22nd), Cameroun (19th) Zimbabwe (16th), Central African Republic (13th), Sierra Leone (11th), Angola (9th), Equatorial Guinea (7th), and Cote D’Ívoire (5th). Medical practitioners  under the aegis of the Society of Family Physicians of Nigeria, SOFPON, raised the alarm that seven million Nigerians are living with depression, a major risk factor for suicide, and called for well structured Primary Healthcare Centres, PHCs, that would help detect and treat depression early before the onset of suicide attempts. The President of SOFPON, Lagos Zone, Dr. Blessing Chukwukwelu noted: “In Nigeria, only one-fifth of those with a depressive episode receive any treatment, and only one in 50 receives treatment that is minimally adequate.

Tiger's $20M night of shame: Fallen golf star set to be 'DUMPED by his sponsors following his DUI arrest' as he prepares for embarrassing DASHCAM footage to be released

Tiger Woods could lose hundreds of millions of dollars following his early morning DUI arrest in Florida, claim sports experts.
The fallen golfing star currently earns $45.5M-a-year alone in sponsorship money - including more than $20m from his mega-bucks Nike contract - but following his latest public humiliation the 41-year-old could lose lucrative endorsements.
Despite some standing by him following his much publicized marriage breakup amid rampant infidelity and subsequent loss of form, observers believe backers such as Rolex and Bridgestone to re-examine their relationship with the 14-time Major winner.
And to add insult to injury for Woods it is thought that Florida cops will release highly embarrassing dashcam footage of his 3am arrest on Tuesday, during which officers claimed the star - who is worth $740m - was 'arrogant'.
And before Woods broke his silence with a statement regarding the arrest on Monday evening some of the notorious womanizer's ex-mistresses came to his defense.
Model Coris Rist, who had a six-month affair with the golfer in 2006 when he was married to Elin Nordegren said that the news of his arrest was 'kind of sad' and that he 'was going through a difficult time'.
Furthermore, TMZ claimed that his current girlfriend, Kristin Smith found out about the arrest while shopping at a Neiman Marcus store in Dallas and 'went crazy', began crying and said 'I knew it, I knew it'.

The zookeeper who was killed by a tiger as visitors heard a ‘blood-curdling’ scream from the enclosure has been named as Rosa King.
The 33-year-old's colleagues desperately tried to save her by distracting the big cat with chunks of meat, witnesses said.
More than 100 visitors were evacuated from Hamerton Zoo in Cambridgeshire as ‘all hell broke loose’ and police and paramedics rushed to the scene.
Witness Pete Davis said he believed Miss King was attacked after rushing to help a colleague in the tiger enclosure.
He said: ‘There’s no doubting it was a girl’s scream and something terrible had happened. It sounds like a tiger turned on her. 
She had run into the enclosure after hearing one of her colleagues shouting and moments later all  hell let loose.
'She let out a blood-curdling scream and then another keeper ran out and shouted “run”.
'It was a case of total panic. There were keepers rushing about throwing buckets of meat to try and get the tigers under control.’
Miss King’s friend, wildlife photographer Garry Chisholm, said last night: ‘I have lost a very dear friend who loved the animals in her care very much.

He dismissed stories making the round that her members would clamp down on anybody who tried to do any business or open shops today, stressing that “we are not going to harass anybody who wishes to open her shop or do any business. All we are saying is that, we will be surprise to see shops and businesses open because our people are in serious support of the cause we are pursuing.”
Ezeike warned that the Inspector General of Police, Idris Abubakar Ibrahim, has directed that unpatriotic elements should be dealt with by the security officers.The statement advised citizens to go about their lawful business and not to fall prey to the propaganda and directives of individuals or group of persons whose identity remains largely unknown.
