Geek of the Week


I think that when greatness comes along, we need to do our best to embrace it. ...But until it does come along, we'll talk about this guy instead. John Allwood, a 29 year old Australian, recently head butted his way into the record books by (get this) smashing 40 watermelons with his head in less than one minute! He did it at the Chinchilla Melon Festival in Queensland Australia. Other games at the festival included Watermelon Skiing, Melon Bungy, Melon Bullseye, Melon Feasting, and you guessed it, Splitting Watermelons. The "Splitting Watermelons" portion of the festival was the crowd pleaser though, and they even brought in Chris Sheedy from Guiness World Records to adjudicate Mr. Allwood's cranial feat. Hey, everybody's got their own talents, right?

Oh Andy... that's pretty funny. Where do you get this stuff anyway?
