39. Shrink Wrap Strikes Again

Somewhere underneath this green wrapping is quite an expensive looking car. We don't imagine that coming into contact with this particular variety of sticky shrink wrap is going to be great for the paintwork, but as it had no business being there to begin with, we can't say we have all that much sympathy.

Where people find all this shrink wrap is beyond us - someone, somewhere must be stockpiling it - but once it's been wrapped around something like this, it's difficult to get off. It doesn't cut away as easily as you might think, and pulling at it can often make it tighter. That's not great news when someone has decided to attach your car to a steel pole. When this driver got back to their car, we imagine they weren't able to resume their journey for quite some time.

Did You Know...

Over the years, weve seen so many food trends come and go, such as ramen burgers, matcha, and spiked ice-cream. Nowadays, were seeing another trend making waves in the food industry. How many times today have you seen an Instagram photo of a scoop of black ice cream, or a cup of black yogurt, or hamburgers with black buns? Indeed, the charcoal trend has taken the world by storm.

So, what gives your latte that deep black shade? Activated charcoal, or coconut ash, is produced by heating coconut shells to insanely high temperatures until theyre burnt to a crisp. The ashes are then increased in size by steaming at high temperatures. Through this process, the ashes become a strong detoxifier, mostly because they become extra absorbent. This product may be purchased in pill form, and promises to alleviate hangovers, minimize the effects of food poisoning, and fight the visible signs of aging.

Activated charcoal is said to boost ones energy as a result of decreasing toxins in the body. However, no evidence proves that detoxifying can lead to increased energy. Also, while it can help cure a hangover, it doesnt necessarily remove alcohol from your blood. It is also said to aid in debloating your stomach because it cleanses your colon but again, this all anecdotal and isnt supported by scientific evidence as of yet. All we can say for sure is that it is a proven detoxifier.
