Why the long face? Male Madagascar leaf nosed snakes have a bizarre pointed nose- and nobody knows why! Brrrr! Competitors sit on a block of ice for up to two days in the Swedish sport of ice sitting! Slow poke! The American Woodcock flies it just 5 MPH!

Ok….
Where to start….
1) Who cares why the snakes nose is long?
2) If ‘STUPID’ humans want to sit on an ICE block for 2 days….whatever! I’m not doin’ the wash after!!
