Disneyland Paris visitor goes missing after taking LSD; search party is called in after park closes

A Disneyland Paris tourist had quite the trip while visiting the park last week.

An unidentified Swiss tourist allegedly went missing in Disneyland Paris after taking the hallucinogenic drug LSD while at the theme park with his girlfriend on Friday night.

The man and his girlfriend, reportedly also a Swiss tourist, visited Disneyland Paris where the woman supplied the 32-year-old man with the illegal drugs.

At some point after taking the smuggled-in hallucinogen, the man went missing. The girlfriend alerted park authorities after the park had closed and the man was still not found.

Thirty firefighters, 10 divers and 80 Disneyland Paris employees were dispatched to help locate the man, French news outlet L’Expressreports. Dogs and a military Gendarmerie helicopter was also used, according to WDWNT, a blog not affiliated with the Disney Parks.

Around 12:30 a.m., the man was discovered on the bank of a body of water where he had reportedly fallen earlier.

The pair were taken to Chessy police station, where they were detained for illegal drug use.

Once inside the home, police say the deer went into the bathtub and would not leave.

Sgt. Dave Reinfelder said officers called the Michigan Department of Natural Resources who came and took the deer away.

The deer received cuts to the head and near its eye.

Surprisingly the deer didn't knock anything over in the home.

Guinea Pig Ice Cream Becoming A Cool New Treat In Ecuador

QUITO, Ecuador (AP) — It’s a real ice cream flavor: guinea pig. Anyone who thinks of guinea pigs as pets _ cute, squishy, squeaking bundles of fur _ might find that idea hard to digest.


The rodents are a traditional hot dish in some Latin American countries, including Colombia, Peru and Bolivia. In Ecuador, people typically cook guinea pigs with salt and serve them with potatoes and peanut sauce. But one vendor is taking things to another gastronomic level, serving guinea pigs as a cold dessert.

Some people like ice cream made from “cuy,” as the animal is locally known.

“I was suspicious, but it was tasty,” said Marlene Franco, a 78-year-old retiree who tried a scoop at a stall next to a highway linking the Ecuadorian capital of Quito to the city of Sangolqui.

The stall owner is María del Carmen Pilapaña, whose offbeat offering inspires disbelief and laughter among first-time customers.

Pilapaña’s operation is small. It consists of two tables in an open area lined with dentists’ clinics and other businesses. Even so, demand is growing. Every week, the entrepreneur prepares 150 servings ($1 for a cone) of guinea pig ice cream.

She also makes 40 servings of ice cream flavored with beetles, also traditionally eaten as a salty snack, and a smaller amount of mushroom ice cream.

Russian miners find an objects shaped like a UFO. One opinion is it was something for throwing because the so-called ancients were larger than us.
Russian Coal Miners Discover a Mysterious Object That Looks Like a Flying Saucer | Latest UFO sightings
A recently-resurfaced video has revealed a UFO that has been found buried in a coal mine in Russia. Russian state media claimed the strange UFO-shaped thing was found in a coal mine in Belovo District, Kemerovo.

According to Russia Today, the UFO measured 3.9 ft or 1.2 m across and weighed around 200 kg. The off-the-wall claims were supported by a short interview with an unnamed man who claimed to have helped found the UFO.

He said the excavator driver informed him to have found a strange object on the coal face. When he arrived at the coal-basin, he saw the unusual thing. At first, he thought it was a shield, but when they put it on its edge, he saw that it looked like a UFO.

He suggested it might be some kind of object for throwing as he brought up the possibility that the ancients were bigger than us. He also said that it could be a miniature copy created by people who saw spaceships in the sky.

World’s Largest Ouija Board Built in Salem Massachusetts to ‘Summon the World’s Largest Ghost’
On October 12th, 2019 at one in the afternoon officially called Ouijazilla was unveiled in Salem, Massachusetts. The gigantic ouija board is the largest in the world and was built with the hope of summoning the world’s largest ghost.

The board was created by the Talking Board Historical Society, and broke the Guinness Book of world records, record for the largest ouija board ever created.

According to their website; “Talking boards are historically significant, having existed in one form or another since shortly after 1848, the birth of Modern Spiritualism. Most Americans are aware of the most famous talking board, Ouija, first introduced in 1890 by the Kennard Novelty Company and sold today by Hasbro, Inc.”

According to their Facebook About Page; “The mission of the Talking Board Historical Society is to research, preserve, and celebrate the history of Ouija and talking boards, the men and women behind them, and the people who use them. The TBHS seeks to promote the study of talking board history, publish important findings, and preserve and officially designate locations with historic connections to talking boards. Fundraising is an important part of these efforts, and the TBHS maintains an endowment fund for carrying out the above-stated purposes. Through these projects and others, the TBHS hopes to unite people of similar interests and promote a fuller understanding of Talking Boards, their historical significance, and their place in popular culture.”

The historical society was founded by Robert Murch, Brandon Hodge, Gene Orlando, Mike Buchner, AG Ruff, Andrew Vespia, Janet Mattei-Romano Curran, Rick Schreck, Calvin von Crush, Colin Jones, and John Kozik.

Robert Murch, one of the founders of the society is well known for his collaboration with Hasbro to create and distribute ouija boards in stores for children.

The event which was held at Salem Commons was sponsored by the Salem Witch Board Museum.

He grew a 910-pound pumpkin and then used it as a boat

Instead of making a giant jack o'lantern or a massive pie that could feed the whole town, a farmer in Tennessee took his 910-pound pumpkin out for a spin in his pond.

It's been Justin Ownby's dream to grow a giant pumpkin. And for the past four years, he has been trying to reach his goal of growing a 1,000 pound pumpkin, his wife, Christin, told CNN.

This year the farmer from Cleveland, Tennessee, had an extra special seed to plant in May - a seed from last year's record-breaking pumpkin grown in Tennessee that weighed more than 1,700 pounds, according to Christin.

Justin Ownby standing next to his giant pumpkin. "He was out there daily watering it, covering it during the heat of the day and making sure the beetles didn't get to it," she said.


When it was done growing, the pumpkin was hauled onto a trailer. With the help of a neighbor, who had access to a large scale, it was weighed.

"It's the biggest we ever grew," she said. "The largest before was 220 pounds."

Justin hollowed out the pumpkin to harvest the seeds and then decided to have some fun with the kids, Christin said. On Monday night, he plunged the pumpkin in the pond on the family's property, climbed inside and with an oar in hand he started paddling around. Christin recorded his adventure and posted it on Facebook. At one point, Justin even tried standing up in the pumpkin before tipping over into the water.

The pumpkin loaded on the trailer. Christin said the family would've placed second at the fair but they already had a family trip planned during the time of the event. She added Justin won't stop growing giant pumpkins anytime soon.

"He is hoping to break the 1,000 pound mark next year."

Last month, pumpkin boat races were held in Morton, Illinois, where participants had to paddle their way across a lake while sitting in 500-pound pumpkins.
