 A very expensive crash
 Eight Ferraris, a Lamborghini and several Mercedes-Benz cars were involved in a pricey pile-up on an expressway in Yamaguchi prefecture in Japan. The owners of the sportscars were on their way to a supercar meet-up in Hiroshima when the accident occurred.
According to reports, the driver of a Ferrari attempted to pass a Toyota Prius but instead hit a guardrail which set off a chain reaction as the other cars were travelling in a tight formation behind him. Luckily only 10 people suffered minor injuries - but the damage to their cars, as well as their wallets, is another story. 
 No bribe for you!
 A snake charmer in northern India took matters into his own hands when his application for a permit for land to keep his snakes on was delayed for more than two years by corrupt local officials. Instead of giving them bribes as they allegedly wanted, Hakkul  released 40 poisonous snakes into their office. 
Frightened workers jumped onto chairs and tables to get away from the snakes, which included deadly cobras. Eventually the serpents were captured by forestry department officials and no one was hurt. If only all political corruption cases could be settled with poisonous snakes.

 Austrian daredevil Mich Kemeter  has pushed himself to new heights -  914 metres higher, in fact.
The 23-year-old made four successful crossings of the 25-metre-long, 2.5-cm-wide wire strung high above Yosemite National Park in the US. His last attempt was made without the use of a safety wire.
His stunt is an example of high-lining: tightrope walking at dangerous locations around the world.

 New trend on the web 
 Google Music
 To continue its effort to be involved in every aspect of your life, Google now has its own music store. 
Besides offering users the chance to purchase music, they can also stream music from the store directly to their desktops and Android phones and tablets. Songs can be purchased for free, or for 69 cents, 99 cents or US$1.29.
In addition to streaming songs purchased from the store, users can also upload their own music for streaming. Currently users can store up to 20,000 songs for free. 
Additional features include saving your favourite tracks from the store onto your devices for offline playback  and sharing any song purchases with your friends on Google+.
Currently Google Music is only being offered in the United States, but hopefully it will be made available for  Hong Kong soon.

 Dancing queen
 Sure, OK Go was the first to make dancing on a treadmill cool. But that was for a music video. They've got nothing on this lady showing off her moves on the exercise machine at her local gym.
