[matcom]

In this combination picture of before and after, Claudio Paulo Pinto pops his eyeballs out of their sockets, in Belo Horizonte, 340 kilometers (210 miles) north of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, on Saturday, Sept 16, 2006. Claudio Paulo Pinto is looking for work. That's his job _ looking. Pinto can pop his eyeballs at least 7 millimeters (0.3 inches) out of their sockets, a national record for eye-popping according to RankBrasil, an organization modelled after the Guinness Book of World Records that lists Brazilian records. Pinto says he's been doing this since he was nine years old and "it doesn't hurt a bit." (AP Photo/Eugenio Savio)

in the Tim Burton version of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.

Too bad Marty Feldman is dead, they could have made a movie together!

8. You know, you have to wonder how people discovered their weird

abilities. :yoiks: I mean, did he accientally pop his eyes out one day and then say, "Cool! Let's do it again!"? :puke: If I'd accidentally popped my eyes out of their sockets, I'd have fainted and then reminded myself never, ever to do that again. :scared:
