For as long as I can remember, Ripley’s Believe It or Not has been known for their shocking books, museums and other attractions. We love taking trips to Gatlinburg in our home state of TN and visiting the Ripley’s Aquarium and Museums. All you have to do is mention the name Ripley’s and people know they are in for something out of the ordinary. Last year just in time for the Holidays Ripley’s released the Reality Shock book which made its way into my 2014 Holiday Gift Guide and this year we have the all new Ripley’s Believe It or Not! Eye-Popping Oddities.
This book contains 256 pages overflowing with mind-blowing stories of animals, feats, art, pop culture, the human body, and more, all 100 percent verified. Readers of all ages will discover the oddest, funniest, most awe-inspiring stories on Earth—and will return to this book again and again. Our kids love looking through these books and every time we have a get together this book always gets pulled out from under the table.
Nathalie Alony from Italy builds tiny clay scenes and positions them in sardine cans, she has built hundreds of the little works of art and says each takes about 3 days. Zhong Yilong pulled a van with a chain hooked in his nostrils, ouch! Ripley’s Eye-Popping Oddities can be purchased directly from the Ripley’s Books website, Amazon or you favorite local book store.
