Angry Chinese man lifts 14 bricks with "Horn"

Whoa.

Man lifts 14 bricks with his 'horn'



A Chinese pensioner can lift up to 14 bricks with a 'horn' that's grown on his forehead.

Wang Ying, 73, has been practicing Kung Fu, especially the study of Qi, since he was just eight-years-old.

But his studies took a new direction after a 5cm long tumour grew on his forehead.



Doctors told him they could not operate on the tumour because of its location.

So Wang has incorporated it into his Qi routine.

He lives in a farm in Pei County, Jiangsu Province, and walked for 18 days to Nanjing to show off his stunt.

Oh sure, they all claim it is 5cm, but in reality it is only about 3cm.


That picture does not say much for the communist dental plan.

So the thing is, why 14 bricks. I mean it's not like there is another guy who lifted 13 bricks with his horn -- because there can't be any other dudes with a horn like that ....
