Ripley's Believe It or Not by Ripley’s Believe It or Not! for March 05, 2012

All that gum is going to produce a lot of flatulence. How weak willed is this guy if after 6 years he is still trying to give up smoking. Or has he become addicted to chewing gum?

a 170 pound ball of chewed gum is just discusting

This just in…75% of all skyscraper disasters happen in China.

Barry needs another hobby.

And Barry hasn’t had a date in 6 years either…which is NOT so hard to believe

“Now Tobiah the Ammonite was by him, and he said, Even that which they build, if a fox (or elephant?) go up, he shall even break down their stone wall.” Nehemiah 4:3

Bet his wife is loving that.

Insert joke/pun here.

Elephants tiptoe in order not to unbalance the skyscrapers or step in gum.

What some people won’t do for a little media attention! Saving all his chewed gum indeed!

Medicated gum? Nicotine gum is the correct word. Six years and still hasn’t kicked the habit. Nicotine ‘junkie’.

Yep, Too big to stick under the coffee counter !

Does the chewing gum lose it’s flavor on the bedpost overnight?

There was a picture on the internet recently of a building, about 8 stories(?) slated to be an apartment building that just fell over sideways, practically still intact. Looks like with a block and tackle they could have put it back up again.

Barry should take up a better habit like milking King cobras. Giraffes walk on their tip-toes,too. The Empire State Building will soon be the smallest skyscraper.

If I recall correctly, the Flatiron Building was the first to be considered a “skyscraper.” Since it is still standing, I would say the ESB is far from being the smallest skyscraper.
