In the spirit of Halloween, magician Rich Ferguson took to the streets of San Luis Obispo, California, determined to scare the living daylights out of unsuspecting public with his head-drop prank. Upon seeing his head-drop trick, unsuspecting onlookers screamed, gawked, and, in a few cases, ran away in terror.
Ferguson is no newbie when it comes to pranks. He’s been featured on the “Ellen DeGeneres Show” and performs magic around the country.
“My favorite reaction is when people scream and run away, especially when they are tough looking guys. At night, it’s almost always more fun. Nighttime causes much better reactions. It’s due to people being a state of vulnerability. However, lighting, hitting, kicking and profanities become serious issues!” said Ferguson.

A 31-year-old Netherlands-based artist is creating startlingly realistic 3D illustrations that appear as if they are coming right off the paper all with the help of a pencil and a vivid imagination.
A snake seems to be moving in and out of a piece of paper in this Ramon Bruin's incredible 3D drawing
Ramon Bruin developed the technique he calls anamorphosis through his experiments in airbrushing, a style he studied at the Airbrush Academie in Lelystad, Netherlands, and promotes through his company, JJK Airbrush.
“Airbrushing is a great technique for making paintings with depth and realism,” Bruin said, adding that it was the “subtle gradient” you can create with an airbrush that first attracted him to the style.
Bruin picked up his first airbrush about 10 years ago, but he only began creating the 3-D illusion drawings in 2010.

Alma Deutscher is just seven but music lovers are already comparing her to Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.
The Surrey schoolgirl can play piano and violin beautifully and has even composed an opera.She has her own YouTube channel to showcase her talents and actor Stephen Fry is among her growing legion of admirers.
Young musician Alma Deutscher, pictured playing the violin at the age of six, has been compared to Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Fry has twitted about Alma: ‘Simply mind-blowing: Alma Deutscher playing her own compositions. A new Mozart?’
Alma lives near Dorking with her parents Guy, 43, a linguist and amateur flautist, and Janie, 39, an academic. Her father has revealed that she could name the notes on a piano by the age of two, and she received her first violin for her third birthday.
Within a year, she was playing Handel. She has gone on to master works by many famous composers including Schubert, Haydn and Mozart himself.
Probably the most impressive is the footage showing Alma playing her own work, which she has written for piano and violin.
Earlier this year, Alma composed a short opera called The Sweeper of Dreams for a competition run by the English National Opera to find young classical musicians. The composition narrowly missed out on making the final.
‘I want people to know how I play,’ Alda said, adding that when she is older she wants to ‘compose like Mozart, play the violin like Perlman and play the piano like Barenboim’.
What Alma is doing now is definitely no less sophisticated than what Mozart was doing at her age.
Mozart was composing pieces by the age of five. He went on to compose more than 600 works. He died in 1791, aged 35.
Time will tell whether Alma will be the next Mozart. Anyway, sit back and enjoy this video:

Korean rapper Psy – real name Park Jae Sung – has taken the world by storm, with his undeniably catchy hit Gangnam Style becoming the biggest hit of the year and a truly awe-inspiring phenomenon. There are now countless parodies of the hit worldwide and the YouTube video of Psy’s Gangnam Style, in which he performs his now signature horse riding move, has received close to a staggering 350 million views at this moment as I am writing this article. Psy’s hit has peaked at No. 1 on the British charts and looks set to hit No. 1 on the US’s Billboard chart where it is currently at No. 2.
The Los Angeles Times has said the song was taking over the world and Time Magazine said it was ‘hard not to watch again …and again …and again.’
Now the inmates of Cebu Provincial Detention and Rehabilitation Center (CPDRC) in the Philippines, famous for performing an epic Michael Jackson Thriller performance in 2007, have got into the act doing their prison version of Gangnam Style that has instantly gone viral with over a million hits since it was uploaded to YouTube on September 29.
Doing time Gangnam Style
Almost 1,000 prisoners performed the routine in the pouring rain, thrusting, waving and jerkily popping their limbs to the catchy tune, clad in their bright red uniforms in a crazy parody that includes the iconic horse-riding dance move. However, the prisoners could not completely mimic the video as the prison wardens would not allow the prisoners the use of a pool, sauna or elevator.
Enjoy the video of the inmates performing the dance routine en masse at the prison in the Philippines:

It’s the real thing. No, I am not talking about Coca-Cola. Welcome to the fresh side of life : Chen Guangbiao Good Man.
China has a huge air pollution problem, but while authorities seem to be lackadaisical about tackling it, billionaire Chen Guanbiao, aka “Brother Biao”, is trying to heighten public awareness in a very original way. Billionaire Chen Guangbiso, the CEO of a resource recycling company and a philanthropist, recently launched a line of canned fresh air collected from provinces and regions with little pollution, such as Qinghai, Sichuan, Yunnan, Jinggang Mountain and Tibet in southwest and northwest China. The product is called “Chen Guangbiao Good Man”.
