The pudding guy! Thanks to a contest's fine print, University of California engineer David Phillips managed to turn 12,150 cups of pudding into 1.25 million free air miles in 1999! Karen Bell of Scotland has a Smurf collection of over 5000 items, which cost her around $33,500! When icebergs and glaciers melt, they make a fizzing noise called bergy seltzer. The world's only toilet shaped house is in South Korea and was built by Sim Jae-Duck, who was born in a toilet!

I don’t even want to know how Jae-Duck was born in a toilet. (Where has David been flying thanks to all that pudding?)

Icebergs melt on the bottom, so there shouldn’t be much noise there.

Ohio State’s football stadium comes close to being the shape of a toilet, but it’s fitting for them. Go Blue!!!

Wow, the story about how David got all those miles is pretty interesting. He spent about $3000 to buy all that pudding, got the Salvation Army to peel the barcodes off for a donation of all that pudding (and an $800 tax writeoff). Then sent them in to Healthy Choice to redeem for miles. And since he has so many miles, he is now accumulating them faster than he can spend them.
