For one Australian man, the Guinness Book of World Records is in his blood.

James Harrison, 56, set a record for the most blood donated by a single person – 480 liters in more than 800 visits over 38 years to the Australian Red Cross.

Harrison said it’s an honor to donate.

A California man has been sentenced to life in prison for sucking the toes of young boys.

Trenton Veches, 32, a former supervisor of a Newport Beach youth program, was convicted for sucking the toes of 25 boys between the ages of 6 and 10.

After his arrest, Veches told cops he’s been fascinated with feet all his life.

A hair-raising scandal has rocked Japan’s venerable sport of sumo wrestling.

For the first time, a sumo wrestler ranked No. 1 has been disqualified for grabbing a fistful of his opponent’s topknot and pulling him down to the ground.

The culprit: Asashory, a mammoth 22-year-old from Mongolia who is sumo’s biggest star.

“A first that has sullied the honor of sumo’s highest rank,” read a Japanese front-page headline.

But the wrestler said it was an accident. “From the beginning to end, I was just trying to win,” he said.

Women all over the world are jumping for joy.

A British product-design graduate has invented a stiletto heel that converts to a flat shoe in an instant.

Ella Kilgour, 22, said she came up with the idea for the all-in-one-shoe after getting blisters and bunions from high heels.

“The stiletto is insanely impractical, hellishly uncomfortable but irreplaceably desirable,” she said.

A doctor in Peru used a store-bought drill and an old pair of pliers to perform brain surgery on a man who had been struck in the head with a metal object in a street fight.

Dr. Cesar Venero said he had no other choice because they “have no [neurosurgical] instruments at the hospital.”

“He was dying, so I had no choice but to run to a hardware store to buy a drill and use the pliers that I fix my car with, of course after sterilizing them,” Venero said.

He said the patient, Centeno Quispe, is doing well.
