Clips of Canadian basketball phenom Jeremy Gohier, who at 13 years of age is already 7 feet and 3 inches tall, towering over his teenage opponents have been going viral online.

Jeremy Gohier is not your average 13-year-old. He is already considerably taller than the average NBA player (6-foot-6) so he usually makes short work of his teenage opponents, dunking on them with ease, blocking shots effortlessly, and moving around the court without anyone being able to stop him. His athleticism and basketball skills are nothing to scoff at, but it is Jeremy’s impressive frame that has everyone talking about him these days. In the video highlights doing the rounds on social media, Gohier looks so dominant that you can’t help but feel a bit bad for the kids having to play against him.

Choi Soon-hwa, an 80-year-old woman from South Korea, recently shocked the world by qualifying as a finalist in the annual Miss Universe Korea competition.

Choi, a grandmother of three who turns 81 next month, never dreamed of being in the running to represent her country in the Miss Universe beauty pageant, but thanks to changes made to the contest’s selection rules, she was able to do just that. Before this year, participants were required to be between the ages of 18 and 28, but due to growing pressure to become more inclusive, Miss Universe scraped the rule, thus allowing pretty much anyone to participate. Apart from the age ban lifting, pregnant women, and women who had children or had ever been married were also allowed to compete. Now, Choi hopes to inspire others by showing that health and vitality can be maintained well into old age.

An Austrian man who incited his 14-year-old son and his best friend to commit a series of armed robberies tried to pin the blame on the two teens in court after they were caught.

A 34-year-old man recently shocked the Judge and Jury in Courtroom 1 of the Vienna Regional Court after putting the blame on his 14-year-old son and his 17-year-old best friend for a series of robberies, claiming they had masterminded the crimes and he was only their getaway driver. The trio’s modus operandi was pretty much the same every time. The two minors were sent into tobacco shops and gas stations wearing balaclavas and wielding knives or pistols loaded with blank bullets, while the 34-year-old man waited outside behind the wheel of the getaway car. They carried out seven robberies before finally getting caught, but instead of taking responsibility for inciting the two boys, he claimed that they had convinced him to be their accomplice.

A North Carolina man claims that a woman he has never met before filed legal documents claiming ownership of his $4 million home and managed to obtain the deed to his property.

Raleigh dentist Dr. Craig Adams recently learned that the 8,300-square-foot home he has been living in for years is no longer in his name. Instead, it shows up in the name of a total stranger who allegedly filed “a false warranty claim deed against the house and basically tried to steal it.” Adams only learned that he apparently didn’t own his property anymore after a neighbor called to ask him if he had sold it and informed him that a woman named Dawn Mangum had asked for the gate access codes. Shockingly, the owner also presented what appeared to be a legal deed in her name. To Adams’ surprise, the deed had indeed been legally obtained from the Register of Deeds and could not be revoked.

A Chinese man who built a pontoon bridge for an isolated village using his own money was fined multiple times and ultimately given prison time for the unauthorized structure.

Before 2005, Zhenlin Village, in Northern China’s Jilin Province, was completely cut off by the Taoer River, with locals having to travel around 70 kilometers to the nearest bridge. However, everything changed when a villager by the name of Huang Deyi, who had previously operated a small ferry to and from the village, decided to do what the regional authorities wouldn’t – build a small bridge across the river. The rudimentary pontoon bridge was welcomed by the community, and people were more than happy to pay a small toll to Huang for using it, as it was much cheaper and less time consuming than driving 70 km to the nearest authorized bridge. Business was good, and in 2014, Huang Deyo along with 17 other villagers improved the bridge by welding together 13 metal boats so it could support heavier vehicles, but four years later, the Taonan Water Affairs Authority came knocking, ordering the dismantling of the bridge and accusing Huang and his family of illegally profiting from it.

A 38-year-old Japanese man was recently arrested for phone-stalking his own wife, calling her over 100 times a day anonymously and saying nothing until she hung up.

On July 10, a 31-year-old woman from Amagasaki, in Japan’s Hyogo Prefecture, started receiving strange phone calls from someone who would just remain silent until she hung up in frustration. This went on for weeks, because the calls came from an anonymous phone number, so the young woman couldn’t just block the calls. On most days she would get dozens of phone calls, but sometimes, the phone stalker would ring over 100 times per day. Luckily, the phone never rang during the night or when she was playing video games on her husband’s phone, which ultimately got her thinking about who the mystery caller could be…
