A list of intriguing things
One: Dhruv Vidyut has built a nifty device that can turn an ordinary cycle into an electric vehicle in just 20 minutes. Even Anand Mahindra is impressed. (Mint)
Two: Say hello to the new entrant in the social calendar of New Yorkers: A party called Pheromone for armpit fetishists. It seems to involve people hanging around at a club reeking of underarm odour. The ‘ditch the deodorant’ event is a popular trend in gay clubs around the world—and has become even more so thanks to the pandemic. (New York Times)
Three: Ouka may be the world’s first paragliding dog—who routinely takes trips with his owner over the French Alps. BBC News has more on this very brave (or foolish) pooch.
Four: Agustin Vidal Saavedra and Spencer Blanchard animate classic paintings—bringing their 2D creations by Caravaggio, Botticelli, Raphael and more to life. Here’s how Saavedra brought ‘The Last Days of Pompeii’ to life.
Five: A UK company has created a ‘sexercise’ calculator that figures out exactly which sex positions burn the most calories. You can also head over to their website, pick one of 12 sex positions—and how long you kept at it. FYI: The ‘butter churner’ helps burn 211 calories for men and 106 for women every half-hour. Bottom of the pile: ‘The Cowgirl.’ You can satisfy the rest of your curiosity over at News.com.au or check out the calculator.
