Woops sorry for that. But yeah reaaally weird.

Added Fetal abduction.

It's the kind of thing which might seem normal in the world of hamsters and cuckoos, but it's a tad weird when it's a human.

Also added:

Michael Larson
The man who won big on Press Your Luck by memorizing the pseudo-random patterns of the game board. Click here to watch a documentary about the story.

Charles Ingram
A British man who cheated his way to winning the top prize on Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?. Click here to watch the subsequent documentary about the scam.

That one on Charles Ingram is great I'll watch the other one later. Good job Paddy

Bumpiest bump ever.

Last night while talking with Paddy I told him about this occasion when I watched my dad killing a chicken by cutting off its head; the chicken wouldn't stay still and it managed to escape, and started running around headless for what seemed like an eternity (it was probably less than a minute though).
I was only 5 or 6 years old, and although I don't think I felt particularly shocked by it (more like completely bewildered), it's something I'll never be able to remove from my memory.

Anyway: then he asked me if I had ever heard of Mike the Headless Chicken... So I looked it up and, holy crap...

Indeed intriguing

[Chrysler]

Thanks for that list, there are quite a few interesting articles in there I didn't know yet, e.g. the Somerton man mystery (Taman Shud Case).

Another unsolved, more recent case I stumbled upon recently: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cecil_Hotel_(Los_Angeles). The Wikipedia article does not contain much information but the case got quite some press coverage and there's the footage of a surveillance camera ([url]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3TjVBpyTeZM[/url]).

Added your suggestion Chrysler, and also added these:

Kobe child murders | More grisly kid-on-kid crime.
List of animals with fraudulent diplomas | This is one of my favourite Wikipedia articles.

Updated the URL/name of "Girl A" to "Sasebo Slashing".
