(More customer reviews)The latest entry to the market by the Ripley's team is a thick, heavy square shaped collection of pages about odd things covering a range of topics from around the world and even beyond it. The reader is taken on nine different journeys starting with Ripley's World where the history of the man himself is explained in great detail along with the 27 museums spread across nine countries throughout the world. Some interesting pictures of the Niagara and Branson buildings. Next we the reader are taken to the chapter Beyond Belief. Here topics such as miraculous survival (heaps of entries where people have been impaled by various objects and survived complete with photographs), plus your regular Ripley's pierceings, people carrying heavy stuff by various body parts, cats surviving in washing machines stuff like this.
We then move onto Amazing Earth where natural phenomenon are explained as well as towns where people live underground and the like. Body and Mind is the next chapter presenting more piercings, fertility statues, little kids weightlifting, lips pierced with big objects and the like. Wonders of Science covers online auctions, man made body parts, gene alterations, breeding different animals together, robots, inventions and so on. Next the reader journeys to Extraordinary Animals, which is pretty self explanatory looking at some of the adaptations of different animals. Fun and Games deals with the bizarre things people collect, biggest shoe ever made and things like this. Arts and Entertainment looks at sculptures and even functional devices made from rubbish, jellybeans well a large range of things along with movies, plays and the like. The final chapter Beyond Understanding takes the reader to outer space, aliens, ghosts and the like.
An interesting read!
