KJ Joseph of Kerala, India, can do 82 push-ups on his knuckles any minute! Beak envy! In February 2016, Lynn Campbell of Aberdeenshire, Scotland, photographed a sparrow in her garden with an abnormally large beak. Heineken beer bottles were once square so that they could function as bricks to build homes- a 10 X 10 FT shack would require about 1000 bottles!

Heineken was ahead of the curve once people drank themselves out of house and home they could just build another one with their empty’s!

Most people would use some kind of camera to photograph a sparrow in their garden. I don’t know how Lynn managed to do it using a beak – even if it was abnormally large.

in regards to the knuckle pushups….80 in a minute, many of my co horts in the Martial Arts are able to 100 in a minute….and these are proper pushups….not the shrugs many people define as push ups.
