The 11 Month Old Giant

This bundle of blubber may only be 11 months old, but he is already the size of an eight-year-old.The giant baby tips the scales at a whopping 61lbs 12oz (28kg) and stands four and a half stone larger than his older brother. Due to his hefty frame the toddler also has to wear huge nappies.

His mother, Milena Orosco de Agudelo, said her son started ballooning at just two months old.


The baby has had undergone a number of medical examinations which suggest he may have a problem with his endocrine system.

Ms Orosco said: 'He had some tests done and the results show that he has a thyroid malfunction.

'Then, he had a cardiogram test done and that test shows that he has the bones of an eight-year-old boy, but they have not told me where that came from.'

The normal weight for a boy his age is between 13lbs 4oz and 15lbs 7oz (6-7kg) and now baffled doctors in Colombia are trying to work out how he became so big.

Doctor David Dias, of the Barranquilla Pediatric Hospital, said: 'The baby will undergo more tests to see if he's obese or we're dealing with hyperthyroidism.'

World's First Car - That Can Swim !

sQuba is the first real submersible car in the world that can swim like a fish underwater.


It can dive up into 32.8 feet below the surface of the water and can move at dignified 1.8 miles per hour.


sQuba is an electric car that uses rechargeable lithium-ion batteries and 3 electric motors for propulsion. It is a zero-emission car as documented by the rotating license plate in the rear. It produces no exhaust emissions.


The first car that could drive underwater was Quandt’s Amphibicar built in 1968 but only 3, 878 were produced and mostly are still being driven on roads.


Then, Gibbs Technologies came up with Gibbs Aquada in 2004 which it been used to break speed record for crossing the English Channel by Virgin boss, Richard Branson. However, the sQuba seems to be the most exciting car on this day.


To drive on the roads, the sQuba ‘relies on a stainless coil-over suspension from KW automotive and large Pirelli tires mounted on custom-made forged light-weight wheels from AEZ with 17- and 18-inch diameters.


In term of safety, the sQuba has open cockpit so that people can get out easily in cae of an emergency. The occupants of the car have to breathe compressed air through built-in scuba masks.
