For a new driver in the early 90s, several insurance companies would not even insure(full coverage) me on any V8 car. Hence an 89 Daytona Shelby, which ironically was quicker between stoplights...

Since the 1960s, the Penny Lane sign has been stolen so many times that the city started painting the road name on the wall instead, before eventually installing theft-proof signs in 2007.

Gus Lessis,1926.Here we can see Greek strongman Gus Lessis bending over backwards with an 800-pound rock on top of his chest. Next to him is a man readying himself to smash said rock with a hammer. Now this is a very impressive feat of strength, but we just have to ask ourselves—why would anyone do this?

It’s strange to see any picture of Albert Einstein looking like a regular person or doing regular things. His eccentric looks and demeanor, coupled with his truly legendary abilities and mathematical legacies, make him feel truly like the stuff of mythology rather than a regular guy, let alone a husband and father.But here he is in 1939, looking like just a regular dad, albeit with a wacky hairdo, as his daughter sits on his lap while they both attend the opening of the Jewish Pavilion in Queens, New York.
