JUMPING in a nice cool pool to avoid the sweltering heat is a great idea – unless literally EVERYONE has the same idea.
BUDGE OVER: The swimmers desperately avoid the heat but have to suffer crowding [CEN]This week China has seen temperatures of 40C and it has forced people to the pools.
Even experienced swimmers have ended up buying rubber rings because it guarantees at least a small amount of space around themselves in the crush of bodies.
And even for those that find themselves a ring and a spot where they can jump into the water, there is still little opportunity to actually do any swimming.
SPOT THE WATER: People are all you can see in the pools [CEN] One man who died after going swimming was found to have contracted an illness from water that was contaminated by urine and faecal matter, from what experts estimated had been around 47,000 swimmers.
Had enough weird news? Thought not – here's our pick of the week's best...
UNEXPECTED: The man found out from his doctor he was a woman [GETTY] A Chinese, er, 'man' was suffering from stomach cramps so he went to the docs to try and sort it out. What he didn't expect to hear was that he was in fact a woman and those pains? Period pains. How his wife didn't detect something was up is a mystery...
FART MACHINE: The inventor planned to aim the device at France [YOUTUBE] Colin Furze wanted to see if France could hear a giant fart from Dover. So he built a machine for that sole purpose. The phrase "too much time on his hands" does leap to mind... [CLICK THE LINK ABOVE TO WATCH THE VID]
STUCK: The sex toy was inside the woman for 10 years [JOURNAL OF SEXUAL MEDICINE] A Scottish woman had no idea she had a sex toy stuck in her bvagina for a decade when she visited her doctor to find out why she was losing wait and feeling lethargic. She knows now, though.
GET ON DOWN: The pensioner wasted no time in rocking out [93.9 MIA] In what is quite possibly the best video we've seen all year, this old guy forgets his walking canes, hurling them aside to have a bit of a boogie. And he is an instant legend. [CLICK THE LINK ABOVE TO WATCH THE HILARIOUS CLIP]
IMPLANT: The silicone skull is now in Bart's chest [BPM MEDIA] Ink Land King Body Art The Extreme Ink-Ite (catchy name) has now taken to having things stuffed into his chest. Because why stop at the outside of your body? We can't wait to see what he does next.
ERROR: The man claimed surgeons hacked off his penis by mistake [GETTY: PIC POSED BY MODELS] A man is suing a hospital after they cut his penis off in what probably shouldn't be described as a bit of a cock up. His wife is a bit annoyed as well, natch.
ARRESTED: Michael Doster allegedly chucked his wife of a jet ski during the row [PH/GETTY] Michael Doster was apparently caught in a bit of a naughty situation with a man by his wife Pamela. After an argument, he reportedly threw her off a jet ski, leaving her for dead. He's now been charged with domestic battery.
SMOTHERED: Amazon Amanda's clients love her size [RUARIDH CONNELLAN/BARCROFT USA] Fetish model Amanda uses her size to her advantage by getting paid by small men to squash and wrestle them. SOme of them even like to be carried by her in public. Whatever floats your boat...
SMALL FINE: The randy couple will only pay £17 if they turn themselves in [CEN] That kinky pair caught getting heated at a pblic fountain can escape with a tiny fine if they do the police a favour and hand themselves in. We're putting money on them not doing that. About £17, since you ask.
IRONY: George Harrison's tree was devoured by beetles [AP] Out of all the things that could have killed a tree planted to honour the memory of Beatles legend George Harrison, it just HAD to be beetles. Good job Lennon and McCartney didn't go for their original group name of The Massive Giant Herd Of Elephants.
