Celebrity dopplegangers are everywhere, and we all even have that one friend who reminds us of a famous actor, actress, singer or other famous person.

Sometimes we see these people in public and know better, but some folks -- often at social occasions like parties and bars where liquor is involved -- tend to think these are really those stars and shamelessly approach them to ask for a photo.

Adding to the embarassment of that person not really being the star, these believers then go share said photos on their social media for all to see, trying to convince their friends that they really did meet someone famous and even hang out with them for a while. Fortunately most of these "stars" are good sports about it and let their "fans" get a selfie with them.

Do you know anyone who looks like a celeb or have you been mistaken for one before? Let us know in the comments at the end!

Hey everyone -- it's Justin Bieber!

George Clooney just hanging out with a bunch of dudes drinking some beers. After work.

My wife's uncle is a cameraman and worked with Clooney on a couple early movies in his career and he said he's an awesome guy and the type who would do this. He ran into him at a gas station after a shoot that day and George yelled across the lot something like, "Hey Dave, we're going to grab a beer, come with us". He's got the signed movie poster framed and hanging in his foyer.- ed.

An employee who worked at McDonald's a few years ago for just over a year recently revealed several of the secrets about what goes on behind the scenes at America's number-one fast food chain, and some of these so-called secrets are pretty shocking, especially number 21 on this list.

"Like any job, there were ups and downs, but overall, I still consider it a pretty decent first job. Would I do it again? Never in a million years," our OP reveals.

So what really goes on with your food, the employees and life in general at your local McDonald's -- one of the over 32,000 worldwide?

1. Drive-thru Is Quicker

Don't want to wait? Go to the drive-thru. Even if the line is long you'll still get served faster. Employees are trained to prioritize customers in teh drive-thru over eat-in customers. There's even a 90-second rule where they're supposed to have your food ready a minute-and-a-half after you place the order. If an eat-in customer orders a Big Mac and a drive-thru customer orders one two minutes later also, the first one ready is going to the drive-thru customer.

2. Breakfast: Scrambled Eggs

Mickey Dees uses fresh eggs. For Egg McMuffins. Order the Big Breakfast, which features scrambled eggs, and they're being made from product that comes in a carton. The "folded" eggs are something that should probably be avoided all together -- they come in already cooked and in that folded shape and all they need to do is heat them up.

3. Decaf Coffee

Because it's not that common, decaffeinated coffee isn't brewed as often as regular, so if you're upset that there isn't any fresh brewed and don't want to wait for a fresh pot and give the staff a hard time about it you can expect half a cup of regular diluted with hot water. This happens mostly in the Drive-Thru.

4. Know What You're Ordering

Can't decide what you want? Then wait until your ready to approach the counter. The people working the registers can't stand indecisive customers, and more so, the people behind you aren't going to liek you either.

5. Cooking Time Will Blow You Away

McDonald's has a special machine that cooks the burgers in just 42 seconds. There's no flipping because it cooks both sides at the same time. Consider it the precursor to the George Foreman grill. The larger burgers, like the quarter-pounders, take 112 seconds.

6. Spoilage Timers

There's a machine with heaters that has timers on it for extra food that may not be used after a lunch or dinner rush. The food is put in the heaters to keep ready for the next batch of customers, but once it's put in a timer is set. When it goes off the food is supposed to be disposed of. One secret is that many of the staff members just reset the timers and leave the food until it's sold.

7. Employee Meals

Unlike the dude above, we certainly hope that the employees wash their hands before handling food. Their own is one thing. Regardless, depending on the length of shifts, employees do get a meal on their break and can have any meal on the menu, without substitutions. Although they say that the guys in the kitchen will often hook them up with an extra patty or more cheese, bacon, etc.

8. Picking

Of course employees pick and snack on the job, as our source says, "with all those fries and McNuggets around, can you blame us". They do get in trouble if they get caught, though.

9. Filet-O-Fish Sandwiches

For some reason employees hate cooking Filet-O-Fish sandwiches, mostly because they need to be cooked from scratch. They're one of the rarest items that get ordered and running around to cook one or two when it's busy is apparently a pain.

10. No Salt

Want fresh cooked fries? Order them with no salt on them. They'll have to cook a fresh batch. Oh, and expect to wait a few minutes for them, too.

11. Freshness?

How freshly cooked was your sandwich? It depends on what time of day it is whether or not it's been under a heat lamp for a while. If you want something fresh, make a "grill order" -- altering an item from its original recipe. Ask for no pickles or no onions on your burger and they'll have to make it from scratch.

12. Extra Sauce

Those little sauce packets cost money, and if you want extras it may cost you extra, too. Employees usually just hand them out but managers will most likely make you pay for them.

13. Monopoly

The annual Monopoly game is a big hit, but employees aren't allowed to win any prizes. They usually check the pieces left behind on empty cups in the dining room though, and if any money is won they'll give the piece to a friend and split it. Instant win food items can be redeemed at other McDonald's stores.

14. Stars

The stars on staff member name tags are only earned through training programs and usually each comes with a small pay bump. Apparently people like to tease the staff and ask how many stars they have.

15. Passing The Time

During slow periods the staff does get bored, so they'll mess around and make things out of food packages. Employees will also play games like "guess the race" where they try to pick which race the next drive-thru customer belongs to. One of the biggest secrets is that if a very attractive woman comes in the cashier will ring a bell so the guys in back can check her out.

16. Employees Hate Working Late Nights

That's when all the drunks come in -- right after the bars close.

17. "Five Second Rule"

Any McDonald's -- or any other restaurant employee -- will tell you that the five second rule does indeed exist. Under pressure, things occasionally get dropped. They're quickly picked up, brushed or blown off and then packaged up and sent out.

18. Ronald McDonald

McDonad's' signature clown often makes appearances and visits the stores to entertain customers. Employees hate it, especially when it's busy as he'll often get in the way in the kitchen and behind the counter.

19. No Leftovers

What do they do with all that leftover food at the end of the night? Unfortunately they can't give it to homeless shelters, soup kitchens or the homeless out on the streets, they have to tally it and throw it all away. This is probably the worst thing about McDonald's so far (other than the five second rule).

20. Microwaves

Yes, the kitchen has a microwave, but it's rarely used. Our source says the number one use of it is to heat up the pancakes that are on the menu and to make oatmeal.

21. It Really Is Clean

McDonald's is one of the cleanest restaurants going. Cleanliness is tops on the list, and so is personal hygiene.

Every McDonald's is different and run different, but most of the above applies to all of them. One last bit of advice from this short-lived McDonald's insider: "Don't eat the chicken... seriously."

Paris Hilton may not be making bigtime headlines these days, but the hotel heiress is still a major player on her social media pages, regularly updating her Instagram and Snapchat accounts.

She's also a bigtime DJ now and instead of (fortunately) making her own music, she's often in the clubs of Ibiza making serious bank.

Speaking of her own music, can you believe it's been 10 years since she put out her album that featured the single "Stars Are Blind"? She recently commemorated the anniversary on her Instagram page with a shot of the album cover.

Paris is still Paris though -- the same girl we all fell in love with on "The Simple Life" when she and pal Nicole Richie would go around the country and learn what it's like to live like normal, non-rich kids lived.

She's still living it up though and has her small dog sharing in many of her adventures. Check out these times she shared some of her crazy life with us via her Snapchat...

If you ever thought that the small villages of fairy tales didn't really exist then you are mistaken, because the small village of Giethoorn in The Netherlands is a fairy tale hamlet come to life.

The village, which is a big tourist attraction, is known as the "Venice of the Netherlands" and is so enchanting that you'll want to move there after one visit.

Giethoorn was founded in the early 1200s and has no roads. The only way people get around is by walking or boating.

Check out more photos and facts about this neat little town below...

1. This is the village of Giethoorn in The Netherlands

This village has no roads at all. We all live in a world where we can't imagine ourselves without a car or a bike to commute from one place to the other, but for Giethoorn all the people who live here cover their distances by walking on foot. If it is a longer route, then they are likely to take their whisper boat.

2. No roads but plenty of pathways on land and water

You may be wondering that how could a city or a village exist without even having any roads at all, but, this village exists and does just fine without any automobile traffic. If you are curious about how people manage things, then you should read further.

3. People use whisper boats to get around

Whisper boats, as the name suggests, are noiseless. Even when the boats are moving around the city, they don't make much sound and as a result, little to no noise is created.

4. This is the real reason why the village is so peaceful

For a minute, imagine your city to be without any cars, trucks, buses, etc. Doesn't it seem so peaceful without the noise pollution that is created by the vehicles, by their honking and the sound of their heavy engines? Well, this is pretty much the secret to the serene environment of this beautiful village.

5. Loud noises here can be quite startling

The loudest sounds that we can think of are the sirens of the trains or the ones given out by the factories. But, here in this village, the loudest sound one can hear would be probably of quacking of a duck. Though it goes to say that these sounds can be heard only when there are not many tourists in the village -- but it's always overcrowded and flooded with tourists!

6. "Venice of the Netherlands."

The magical village is also known as the Venice of the Netherlands and it was founded around 1230. So, if you are going to visit Holland anytime soon, a Giethoorn visit is a must add to your to-do list.

7. The people who inhabited the city dug up peat deposits

Removing all that peat left room for the water to flow in.

8. The holes were transformed into lakes, ponds and canals

In due time the digging activity was intensified. Due to this reason, the spots that were initially the holes were transformed into beautiful lakes.

9. Land of bridges

As time passed, the village was turned into an island and it was connected together with more than 176 bridges.

10. Doesn't it look like a fairy tale?

Don't you feel like moving to this place because it is just so heartwarming?

There's also this awesome looking pub!

Hawaii native Alison Teal has become the first woman to surf in close proximity to an active volcano, which may not sound like it's that dangerous or too big of a deal, but it actually was.

Teal, who starred in an episode of the Discovery Channel's reality series Naked and Afraid , paddled out near the base of Mt. Kilauea on Hawaii's Big Island to watch the lava flow into the sea, and she was caught on camera by underwater photographer Perrin James. The volcano, which has been erupting since 1983, started spewing lava again in May 2016, and Alison had a front row seat as the molten rock finished the six-mile journey from whence it came and met the sea for the first time in three years.

Instagram

Alison, the daughter of a pair of adventurous photographers, is an avid surfer with a signature pink surfboard. She grew up on the island and says she "has always felt a connection with the earth".

Instagram

Alison said that prior to jumping into the water she saw a double rainbow, which was a good sign and put her at ease, washing away "any lingering droplets of fear". Her parents shot the rainbow from land, while James shot it from the sea.

In Hawaiian lore the rainbow represents several things, one of them being the celestial path that the Hawaiian Gods used to come to the earth. Alison said that the rainbow appeared to emanate from Kilauea, which is one of five volcanoes on the island and the home of the goddess Pele in Hawaiian lore.

Instagram

"When I was a baby & building our handmade home, we would sleep under the stars on the lava & during the day I would learn to swim in the tide pools & lie on the sun-warmed lava rocks for hours asking everyone, be it local fisherman, wise Kahuna, or my parents to tell me a story about Pele, the goddess of the volcano & how she formed my 'playground,'" Alison wrote on Instagram. "As the years passed the ancient lava field in front of my house became the only Hawaii 'playground' I knew. With a life of constant travel for my papa's adventure photography, coming back to Hawaii & seeing lava made me feel at home - it was literally & figuratively the rock in my life. "

Instagram

"IMPORTANT: I do not recommend doing this nor encourage it EVER, the water is boiling, the fumes are lethal and the ocean conditions are beyond treacherous," she wrote on Instagram.

Alison runs her own company, Alison's Adventures , says she paid her respect to Pele before embarking on her adventure as getting this close to a lava flow was going to be more dangerous than anyone thinks.

Instagram

Alison was hit by a "splatter of hardening rock spray" during her adventure and was able to get under the water in time.

"I paddled for my life to get out of the danger zone," she said . "Afterwards I was exhilarated and exhausted at the same time. It was absolute endorphin high, but also terrifying: anything could've happened."

Instagram

Alison is a graduate of the University of Southern California's film school and spends her time spanning the globe to make short films which she posts for free on her site and on her YouTube channel .

During her trip to an island in the Maldives to film an episode of Naked and Afraid she discoverd that the island was overrun with trash, including lots of plastic bottles and styrofoam, and her goal was to bring some attention to this epidemic.

She's also produced films about the Grand Canyon, New Zealand and Israel.

Instagram

"One of my biggest dreams was to paddle my pink surfboard in a volcanic area to feel a true connection to earth being formed. Today my dream came true. With the guidance, support, and prayer of the elders, and following cultural protocol, I paddled within feet of hot lava rivers pouring into the ocean. It was humbling and breathtaking. The rawness, the heat, the crackling & hissing sounds, the reality check that we live on a planet that is alive. Many people think that we have control over the earth and I assure you we are pretty small in the greater scheme of things. What I learned through this experience is that life is short, fragile, and not worth stressing about. Everything is always in a constant state of flux - especially our molten core.

"Nothing is permanent, nothing is owned, nothing is for certain. We are but a tiny, wild planet in a huge universe and as humans we have been put on this earth to pour lava onto everyone and erupt our greatness onto the world so that it flows into the lives of others and forms solid families, friends, religions, politicians, and hardens into peaceful long lasting structures for our futures generations to build on. I saw the Goddes of the lava Pele in many manifestations - her face in the molten flow and her voice in my head. She reminded me that as women on this earth we have a duty to inspire, to flow with grace, and to live as the wild child that first reached it's legs to the earth. Thus I post this not as a photo to get views or praise or critique, but to share one of the most powerful moments of my life magically caught on camera by photographer @perrinjames1 - grateful to the support team for this life changing experience. I lava you all!"

Instagram

Wow! Now that I've had a moment to process perhaps the most powerful experience of my life I wanted to share this with you all. When I was a baby & building our handmade home, we would sleep under the stars on the lava & during the day I would learn to swim in the tide pools & lie on the sun-warmed lava rocks for hours asking everyone, be it local fisherman, wise Kahuna, or my parents to tell me a story about Pele, the goddess of the volcano & how she formed my "playground." As the years passed the ancient lava field in front of my house became the only Hawaii "playground" I knew. With a life of constant travel for my papa's adventure photography, coming back to Hawaii & seeing lava made me feel at home - it was literally & figuratively the rock in my life. Thus when the I received the invite from photographer @perrinjames1 to combine my love for the ocean with my love for lava & be truly in the elements watching the earth give birth, I was honored. We met with appropriate Hawaiian elders, leaders, & kahunas, to make sure to follow every aspect of cultural protocol. Pele, the goddess of the Volcano, is a highly respected & often feared force in Hawaii & very specific traditions must be followed to avoid certain death - if she does not want you there, you will know! After the adventure, they pointed out the face of Pele in the lava with two glowing eyes & hot molten hair, & said she was excited to meet us. Do you see it? I plan to share the power I felt with children across the globe to stand as a fiery source of confidence against injustice, bullying, terrorism, gender inequality, religious warfare, & planetary pollution. I hope to inspire everyone to travel & experience the inspiration found in nature - even if it's your own back yard! Challenge yourself & go fearlessly forward toward your dreams. It was humbling watching earth being formed & it made me feel more connected to nature & the ocean then ever before & instilled me a greater responsibility for helping to take care of our planet for future generations to enjoy. Lava you all 🌋 **I don't recommend for anyone to do. The water is boiling, fumes are lethal, & ocean is treacherous!

Hard work definitely gets people ahead in life, but not everybody plays fair. People often bend or break the rules to gain advantage in some way or another and many seldom get caught.

Some of these so-called life hacks are unethical while others are simple productivity tips, but remember that most of these are are just for your reading pleasure and something we don't endorse should you decide to try and pull one (or more) of them off.

While we do find things like number one and number six genius and are tempted to try them, there are others, like number 10 that have us cracking up!

And, of course, a couple of these might also be illegal!

1. Parking Ticket Hack

No, not like the ticket you get for parking illegally, this is all about parking garages and parking lots. It's ingenious but probably not worth it if you get caught! I you've ever parked your car for a long time -- like at an airport or in a Manhattan parking garage -- and you don't want to pay the insane amount of money they charge, then you could try this. Before leaving the parking lot, walk up to the ticket machine and take a new ticket. When you go to leave hand the clerk the new ticket and pay the minimum!

2. Movie Ticket Hack

A dozen of your friends can watch a movie in the theater for the cost of just 2 movie tickets! All you have to do is go to the theater on a very busy night and buy two tickets. After entering, one person heads back to the snack bar with both tickets and comes in with the new person with them. Repeat the process as many times as necessary. Get caught, though, and you'll probably get banned from that theater.

3. Coinstar Machine Hacks

If you unplug the Ethernet cord from a Coinstar machine, then it won't charge a commission. It's a good way to get all of your money in the form of cash instead of having to cough up the 9%-plus commission or take it in the form of some sort of gift card. But be careful -- there might be some kind of tamper alarm connected to these machines.

4. Movie Ticket Hack Part 2: The Sequel

When you got to a big chain movie theatre, buy tickets from electronic kiosks. If no one is snooping around you, calmly buy the child's price tickets which are very cheap. There is a good probability that you won't be caught, but if you do, then tell them it was by accident.

5. DMV Appointment Hack

While making an appointment for DMV, choose a date two weeks from that day. Save the confirmation page as PDF or JPG. Modify the date and time according to your need using Photoshop and go there at that time. This way you can get ahead all those people who have been waiting for hours.

6. Arm Rest Hack

We often face a situation while traveling in an airplane or while watching a movie in a theater where there is a battle between you and your neighbor for the arm rest. Just pretend to cough on that arm and put it back on the arm rest. This hack never fails.

7. Illegal Parking Hack

For this hack to work, you need to have a past parking ticket that was paid online. Now, next time if you ever want to park your vehicle in a no parking zone for some reason, just park it there and put that parking ticket on the windshield.

8. Free Channel Hack

Use this hack appropriately and you may get free channels for a long time. Tell your television provider that want to stop their subscription. To keep your business they'll offer you some extra channels. When the offers are over, repeat the process.

9. Promo Code Hack

If you're logged in to a shopping website and are buying a product online, add it to your cart and then close the browser. There is a very good probability that in next 24 hours you may receive an E-mail stating that you have forgotten something in your cart with a promo code for a discount.

10. Skip The Lines!

This hack is for those people who are willing to spend some cash (and have no shame) in order to avoid waiting in long lines at places like Disney World where they have a special line for handicapped. Hire a handicapped person to accompany with you and you can skip all the lines.

For some, traveling is not so much a hobby as it is a way of life, especially for those who are young, wild and free spirited.

Unfortunately spanning the globe doesn't come cheaply, and getting the most bang for your buck is important, so some sacrifices have to be made -- for example, staying in a hostel instead of that 4-star hotel ( check out these killer hostels ).

Keeping things cheap isn't always easy for the world traveler, but for those who perpetually have the travel bug, here are a few places you must visit that won't break the bank!

1. Auckland, New Zealand

Pixabay

If you are traveling to Auckland, New Zealand then the only thing that you may find expensive will be the flight, especially if you are flying from the US. But the food and accommodations are more than affordable here.

twitter

2. Marrakech, Morocco

Pixabay

Tripadvisor named Marrakech as the number one travel destination in the 2015. You'll want to go between October and May as the places to stay will drop their rates, and the food is amazing and will fit into any budget.

twitter

3. Machu Picchu, Peru

Pixabay

A hiker's delight, the Incan ruins of Machu Pichu are simply breathtaking. The Inca trail and even a trip to the Peruvian coast are affordable destinations in this South American nation.

Pixabay

4. Varna, Bulgaria

twitter

Though quite underrated, Varna is still one of the most affordable eastern European cities to visit. This resort town lies right on the coast of the Black Sea.

Pixabay

5. Medellin, Colombia

Pixabay

Okay, so the first thing one thinks of when Colombia is mentioned is cocaine and drug trafficking. Infamouse for being a dangerous place thanks tot drug lords like Pablo Escobar, Colombia is improving its reputation and places like Medellin, Bogota and Cali are very affordable for tourists.

Pixabay

6. Ankor Wat, Cambodia

Pixabay

Cambodia is a relatively cheap place to visit, but, unfortunately, the flights there aren't. But to get a glimpse of the Buddhist temple Angkor Wat, the largest religious monument in the world, just might be worth it.

Pixabay

7. Madrid, Spain

Pixabay

Even though Europe is considered to be an expensive continent, Spain is considered to be relatively cheaper. The best months to travel there are September, October, April and May.

Pixabay

8. Hanoi, Vietnam

Pixabay

Nothing could be a better value for travelers than Vietnam as it is quite budget friendly. The best time to visit is late December so you can avoid the rains.

Pixabay

9. Cuba

Pixabay

Cuba is one of the most popular tourist destinations and now flights from the U.S. have finally resumed after over half a century. Even if you go for the last minute deals or plan a package trip, Cuba is going to be quite affordable. The best months to travel are September to November and January to March.

Pixabay

10. Arizona, USA

Pixabay

Arizona is hands down the most beautiful state in the U.S. It has it all, from forests to deserts and there's something for everyone. Hike or camp or get a hotel room or timeshare, either way the rates of accommodations have gone down in recent years. Just don't go from June to August unless you like it hot!

Pixabay

11. Crete, Greece

Pixabay

Greece is among the top visited countries as it is both cheap and beautiful. Travel blogger Nomadic Matt says, "Greece is a great deal, but you should stay in places like Crete instead of Santorini if you want to save money." If you feel the need to check out Santorini while visiting Crete, it's a seven hour ferry ride, but it might just be worth it.

twitter

12. Bangkok, Thailand

Pixabay

One of the cheapest places to travel in the world is Bangkok, Thailand. Rooms can be as low as $20 a night and food and flights are inexpensive as well.

Pixabay

13. Bali, Indonesia

twitter

Bali is an island province of Indonesia and a popular tourist destination. With accommodations and food being extremely cheap, it's popular wiht the younger crowds. If you're a coffee lover, then this might be the place for you -- coffee is found in abundance on the nearby island of Java. Check it out in April, May, September and October.

Pixabay

14. Lisbon, Portugal

Pixabay

There must be something about the Iberian Peninsula. Like its neighbor Spain, Portugal's capital city is one of the cheapest European cities to fly into. The best months, like just about anywhere else, are mid-spring and early fall.

Pixabay

15. Palawan, Philippines

twitter

What makes a college football stadium great and stand above others? Is it state of the art features and new technology, or the humongous seating capacity and delicious food and beverages?

While those amenities are great at pro stadiums around the world, college football stadiums are defined by one thing, and one thing only: the fans.

Every Saturday (and occasionally on some other days of the week -- usually Thursday or Friday nights), fans come out to support the home team and tailgate in the parking lot before heading in to watch the kids toss around the pigskin, and it's that atmosphere that makes these 10 college football stadiums so great...

1. Notre Dame Stadium, University Of Notre Dame

The Catholic university's stadium features a mural of Jesus Christ at one end with his arms raised, known informally as "Touchdown Jesus" as he appears to be raising his arms in the air the same way the referees do to signal a touchdown in football.

The mural, which is actually titled "The Word of Life", depicts Christ the Teacher, and is also featured above the entrance to the university's Theodore Hesburgh Library.

When it comes to the entertainment industry, most people believe that the actors have an easy life as they reap huge paychecks for traveling the globe and doing some somewhat pretty effortless work.

But what these people fail to realize is that the actors work rigorously and even risk their lives while shooting some dangerous scenes.

Faulty equipment, unpredictable accidents and sometimes their own mistakes have resulted in situations that nearly cost them their lives.

Here are 11 famous stars and the tales from when they faced near death situations while filming...

Michael J. Fox In "Back to The Future III"

Michael J. Fox, a Canadian-American actor and producer, is known for his role as Marty McFly in the movie series "Back to the Future". While shooting a scene in the third part of the series, he passed out for 30 seconds when he tried to hang around a noose without any support for his legs.

Isla Fisher In "Now You See Me"

Isla Fisher is an Australian actress who faced a near death situation while shooting a scene in her movie "Now You See Me". While performing an underwater stunt, her chain got stuck and was trapped in the fish tank for 3 minutes. Everyone believed that her actual struggles were just her act.

Meryl Streep In "The River Wild"

Meryl Streep is most known for her flair for the dramatic, but when the perennial Oscar-nominee stepped into the action-thriller "The River Wild" it nearly cost her her life. While filming a scene with co-star Kevin Bacon, director Curtis Hanson called for one final take, but she wasn't up for it. Hanson had his way, though, and during the shot she fell into the freezing cold rapids, only to be "saved" by Bacon, who pulled her back into the raft.

Jackie Chan In "Police Story"

Jackie Chan is a world renowned martial artist, actor, and film director and producer. During the shooting of the huge mall fight sequence in his movie "Police Story", he had to jump and slide down a metal pole while many light bulbs exploded around him. He cracked his seventh and eighth vertebrae and dislocated his pelvis.

Sylvester Stallone In "Rocky IV"

Sylvester Stallone is an American actor, screenwriter and producer who faced a near death situation while shooting a scene in his movie "Rocky IV". During his boxing match against Lundgren, he had to be knocked out. The final punch hit him so hard that he was in intensive care for eight days due to the swelling of his heart.

Tom Cruise In "Edge Of Tomorrow"

Tom Cruise does most of his own stunts, and more than once he's faced injury or possible death. While filming 2014's "Edge Of Tomorrow" co-star Emily Blunt was driving with Cruise in the passenger seat. She was supposed to take a hard right so the trailer behind the car swung out, but things didn't go so well on take number two.

I tear down this path and Tom is being very quiet behind me and suddenly I hear him under his breath as I approach the right-hand turn, I hear him say "brake, brake, brake, brake, brake, oh, God, brake, brake, brake, brake it hard!" She explained to Conan O'Brien during an interview to promte the film, . "I did it too late and drove us into a tree... I almost killed Tom Cruise."

"In my head, I was thinking when I heard him say brake, I went in my head, oh, shut up, as if I thought I knew more about stunt driving than Tom Cruise," she added.

Fortunately the car had air bags and both of them shared a laugh afterwards.

Klaus Kinski In "Fitzcarraldo"

While filming director Werner Herzog's 1982 movig "Fitzcarraldo", about an Irish rubber tycoon in Peru who learns of a rubber-rich territory in the Amazon River Basin and is determined to bring his steamship over a hill to gain access to another river, the borderline insane Kinski would often berate his fellow cast and crew with diva-like behavior.

Several Peruvian natives played extras in the film, and one of their tribal leaders asked Herzog if he wanted him to take Kinski further into the rainforest and kill him. Herzog declined, though, as he needed his star to complete the film.

Margaret Hamilton In "The Wizard Of Oz"

The legendary Margaret Hamilton played the Wicked Witch of the West in "The Wizard Of Oz", and in the 1939 classic she would often disappear in a cloud of smoke. Naturally, special effects were scarce at the time, so filmmakers had to set up a trap door below her feet for her to escape through as pyrotechnics were used to create the smoke screen. Unfortunately for Hamilton, the makeup she wore for the role had petroleum in it, which is, of course, flammable, and during one take the trap door failed to open and she caught on fire from the sparks that created the cloud of smoke. She received second and third degree burns on her hands and face as a result.

Jason Statham In "The Expendables 3"

Jason Statham is an English actor and former competitive diver. During the shooting of a scene in his movie "The Expendables 3", the brakes of the truck he was driving failed. He had to jump out of it as it went straight into the sea. His presence of mind saved his life; else he would have gone 60 feet below the surface of the water with the truck.

Jaimie Alexander In "Thor: The Dark World"

Jaimie Alexander is an American actress known for her role as Jane Doe in the television series "Blindspot". While filming her movie "Thor: The Dark World", she slipped on a wet metal staircase as it was dark outside. She had displaced a disc in her spine, chipped 11 vertebrae, dislocated her left shoulder and tore her left side's rhomboid.

via GIPHY

Diane Kruger In "Inglourious Basterds"

Diane Kruger is a German actress and former fashion model who faced a near death situation while shooting a scene in her movie "Inglourious Basterds". The scene required her to be strangled. Quentin Tarantino failed to say 'cut' in time and Kruger ended up unconscious. A few seconds later and she would have died of asphyxiation.

via GIPHY

Daniel Day-Lewis In "Gangs Of New York"

Oscar-winning actor Daniel Day-Lewis is known for method acting, and during the shoot for 2002's "Gangs of New York", which takes place in 1863, the star would refuse to wear modern clothes and remained in costume for the entirety of the shoot. Because of this, he contracted pneumonia and refused treatment as there was no treatment for the ailment at the time. Day-Lewis pushed through with filming, but had a change of heart when he was told that he would die if he didn't get proper care.

Good beer, good food, good friends! That's what it takes to make any meal the perfect meal. If you have a good company, it's easy to find good food. What's tricky is to find the right beer.

We all love the beer that we can get in our city. But that doesn't necessarily mean that there isn't a better option available. The trick is to know what city can provide you with the best beer. Here are some cities that you have been overlooking as your beer destination:

1. Reykjavik, Iceland

To think that a city that has a population of merely 120,000 could have an amazing beer scene sounds ludicrous. Revival of historical methods of brewing native to the country has been a really refreshing change to the beer culture across America.

2. Puebla, Mexico

Host to one of the best curated beer festivals in Mexico, albeit not the largest, Pueblo has become one of the hottest beer destinations in the hemisphere. With the craft culture seeing a major boom, Pueblo could become a major hub.

4. Cologne, Germany

When you hear Germany and beer, the first thought that comes to your mind is the world famous Oktoberfest of the Bavarian beer culture. But Koln's fusion "lagered ale" called Kolsch has left a huge mark on the world's beer scene.

The largest city in Maine, Portland has become a hub for the beer lovers of the world. But surprisingly a lot of people tend to leave this city off their go-to locations!

7. Waterbury, Vermont

When we talk about Vermont, the first thing that comes to our mind is the amazing Kayaking adventure and skiing experiences. Yet, Vermont is one of the hottest beer cities in the United States

Feral, Stone & Wood, and 4pines are some of the most amazing craft beers that you can buy in any of the gazillion bars and pubs that can be found in the city.

Stone & Wood Brewery

9. Pilsen, Czech Republic

Home to the Pilsner, this is a must visit for the beer geeks. Order one of the unfiltered, unpasteurized versions of Pilsner Urquell, and you will realize what a good Pilsner is supposed to taste like.

10. Cork, Ireland

Another beer city that has a deep and well rooted tradition. The local bars try to follow it, but are not content with it, therefore, they try something new every now and then.

Belgian beer has become super popular over the recent past, but if you want the truest Belgian beer taste, then stay away from the bigger cities. Here you will find Lambics that are almost as good as high end Champagne.

Twenty-one years after its creation the Pokémon phenomenon is still going strong.

After a few years on the down-low, Pokémon has made a resurgence in 2016 with the release of the mobile app Pokémon Go, which has been downloaded over a half-billion times worldwide since its July 2016 release.

It all started with a game on Nintendo and then morphing into a collectible card game, where people would "capture" Pokémon (from the Japanese Poketto Monsuta , or "Pocket Monsters") and train them to battle each other. In all there are over 700 species of these fictional monsters, led by the face of the franchise, Pikachu, and fans of Pokémon could probably tell you most of their names, let alone abilities.

But while these fictional characters come from hundreds of species, one artist has begun transforming them into human forms -- and she's already drawn over 250 Pokémon Gijinka , or personification.

178. Xatu

251. Celebi

081. Magnemite

245. Suicune

South Korean illustrator Tamtamdi has put in hundreds of hours digitally morphing these characters into their human forms. She says it "normally" takes her "30 minutes to one hour to draw one". She uses a Cintiq tablet and Photoshop CC to draw them all.

Tamtamdi pays no regard to the sex of the characters, so don't be surprised to scroll through and see that Pikachu is a girl! And for those not in the know, the number next to each one is their index number

As per Tamtamdi's Facebook page, she does have some personal rules and an FAQ on tumblr ; and she maintains that the whole gijinka trend was started long ago and she doesn't want any of the credit for inventing "the whole concept".

"I know it sounds spicier, but I don't want to take the credit that I don't deserve," she writes humbly, but not ungratefully.

It's a "personal (fun) daily design challenge" and the more that see it is good, but she's not up for becoming famous or having her stuff become "one of the nameless [memes] on the internet."

Most people around the world are quite careful when it comes to their security and security of their family, wealth and precious artifacts.

But some of the most over-cautious ones spend the big bucks to guard their belongings. This has led to the emergence of various security providing organizations to guard heavily fortified locations around the world where money, sensitive information and even people need to be kept safe..

While some of these places are easily accessible by many, there are few that no one can access without special clearance and credentials. Here are six of the most heavily guarded places in the world...

Vatican City

Vatican City is the headquarters of the Roman Catholic Church and home to the Pope and a trove of iconic art and architecture. The city is protected by armed Swiss Guards stationed at the entrance as well as in various other spots. Only few qualified clergies and academics are allowed inside the Vatican City Archives with advanced approval.

Korean Demilitarized Zone

The Korean Demilitarized Zone is a strip of land running across the Korean Peninsula that separates the Democratic People's Republic of Korea and the Republic of Korea. It was established at the end of the Korean War to serve as a buffer zone between these two nations. The area is heavily guarded to ensure that citizens of either nation cannot cross the border.

Gold Vault Of Bank Of England

The Bank of England, formally called the Governor and Company of the Bank of England, is the central bank of the United Kingdom. About a fifth of the world's gold is stored in the gold vault of this bank. The vault takes up about 300,000 square feet of space under the streets of London. It is protected with massive artillery and there are policemen both in uniforms and civilian dress that watch over the security of the bank.

Svalbard Global Seed Vault

The Svalbard Global Seed Vault, also referred to as Doomsday Seed Vault, is a secure seed bank on the Norwegian island of Spitsbergen about 1,300 kilometers from the North Pole. The vault was created as so that we may have access to seeds in case of a global catastrophe. Over 1.5 million different kinds of crop seeds are stored here without depending on electricity because of natural frost and rocks that regulate the temperature.

Iron Mountain Vault

Iron Mountain Inc. is an enterprise information management services company that stores sensitive data like original prints of movies and films 200 feet below the ground under the Iron Mountain, about 60 minutes from downtown Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. The US government is said to be their biggest client and the identities of about 95% vault owners are confidential.

Fort Knox

Fort Knox is a United States Army post in Kentucky that covers parts of Bullitt, Hardin, and Meade counties. This 109,000 acre base actually protects over 168 billion dollars. The area is heavily protected by Apache helicopters, gunships, snipers and other massively armed military men. The storage has a solid granite wall perimeter while the 22 ton vault blast door is held by a complex lock that requires a team of 10 to unlock.

Footwear has become such an important part of human life, but it's often taken for granted considering only about 20% of the total world population wears shoes.

When it comes to footwear, emerging trends in the fashion industry and individual style preferences dictate what the shoes we choose, and because of this we tend to ignore comfort, and, more importantly, our health.

Going barefoot is probably the easiest way to do this. You should take your shoes off and walk barefoot for at least half an hour a day as going sans shoes has many incredible health benefits...

It Clears The Mind

When you are walking barefoot, your mind knowingly and unknowingly looks for rocks or thorns or any harsh surface on the way. At this moment, your mind clears itself from everything and lets you focus on the present.

Natural Yoga Exercise

Yoga helps in rejuvenating and strengthening your body. Similarly, walking barefoot strengthens and stretches the muscles, ligaments and tendons in your feet, ankles and carves. This also reduces the knee strain.

Brings a Good Sleep

Walking barefoot on the moist grass has been considered as the ultimate natural cure for insomnia. When the sole of foot comes in direct contact with the grass, the skin absorbs the energy from the ground. This also refreshes the skin of the foot.

Reduces Anxiety and Depression

Walking barefoot helps in decreasing the anxiety level and even depression. Walking barefoot is known to release endorphins, which makes you feel happy and good and keeps you stress-free.

Natural Reflexology

Your feet has reflex points to all your body parts. And walking barefoot provides the needed pressure on these reflex points, resulting in better functioning of the organs in the body. The tenderness, if any, in the foot will go away with time and will leave your body rejuvenated.

Improves Body Balance

Standing or walking barefoot helps in improving the balance of the body. When you are barefoot and your foot are in direct contact with the ground, your toes attain a better grip. Thus, giving a more steady balance to the body.

Embrace Nature

When you are barefoot and out, you tend to embrace the nature to its fullest as you feel more closely connected to Mother Nature. The sunshine on the face, the wind flowing through the trees and absorbing all the non-toxic elements of the earth allows you to make direct contact with the positive energy of the earth and charge the body with positivity.

Detoxing from the Ground

Walking barefoot on the beach helps the foot to connect to the wet moist sand and get negative ions. These negative ions detoxify the human body effectively and calm the nervous system, thus synchronizing the hormonal cycles and physiological rhythms in the body.

Better Circulation

Going barefoot along with strengthening of the muscles, allows a better circulation of blood through the legs and the feet. This eventually results in decreased pains in the legs.

A Sense of Freedom

The most instant felt benefit of going barefoot is freedom. The foot usually confined in the footwear gives a feeling of being caged. When you go barefoot, even the mind feels the liberty and send positive vibrations through the body.

The Delaware Governor's Mansion, also known as Woodburn house, is the official residence of the Governor of Delaware and his family. This house, famously known as Governor's House, is located in Dover, Delaware and was listed in the list of National Register of Historic Places in 1972.

During the 1780s, Charles Hillyard III purchased the land for $110 and by 1790 the construction of the house was completed. The two story brick home has 7 bedrooms and three bathrooms.

The house has been home to many wealthy citizens and politicians of Delaware and it was in 1965 that it was bought by the State of Delaware. There have been reports about sightings of different ghosts and paranormal activities in Woodburn that has made it a great tourist attraction.

Here are some of the stories of the mansion's several ghosts...

The First Ghost Sighting

Bates U.S. National Archives and Records Administration

After Hillyard's death in 1814 the house was inherited by his daughter Mary and her husband, Dr. Martin W. Bates. The husband was also a lawyer and a US Senator. Mr. Lorenzo Dow, a Methodist preacher, was staying at their place as a guest in 1815. When he approached the breakfast table, he asked the couple to wait for the other guest.

When inquired about this other guest he told that he passed a man dressed in old fashioned clothes on his way down the stairs. The description of the man sent chills down the spine of Mary as the man turned out to be the ghost of her father.

The Ghosts' Love Of Wine

Mr. Hillyard was an avid lover of wine and there have been instances when he has been seen helping himself to a glass. In 1870, a woman was revived from a fainting spell after seeing an old man in a white wig.

This man was none other Charles Hillyard III.

Governor Charles Terry Jr., a former resident of the Governor's House, stated that during his stay from 1965 to 1969, he would often find the wine decanter he filled the previous night empty in the morning.

Hillyard isn't the only reported wine loving specter living in the mansion. The dining room is a favorite hangout spot and past Governors' wives have reported hearing footsteps in there at all hours of the night. One is also suspected of helping himself into the reserves down in the wine cellar as well.

The Ghost Of The Slave Raider

The beauty of the house is ornamented by the surrounding crepe myrtles, boxwoods and large poplar trees. But sometimes these alluring trees may give a sense of dread to the visitors and there is a good reason for it.

In 1825, Dr. Bates sold the house to Daniel Cowgill and his wife Mary. Daniel was a devoted abolitionist and a Quaker who freed his family's slaves. A group of slave raiders heard about this and came to Woodburn to catch those free slaves as the house was a part of Underground Railroad.

Cowgill chased them away but one of them hid in the tree. After waiting for a long time, he dozed off and fell. His head got stuck between two branches and he died a painful death. One can still hear his agonizing moans from the tree.

The Ghost Of A Young Girl In A Red Dress

Mike Mahaffie

Among the various ghosts seen, the ghost of a young girl wearing a red gingham dress is a frequent visitor to this house. She is often seen walking around the reflecting pool holding a candle. She may be the most mysterious ghost among the lot.

She was spotted crashing the inauguration party of Governor Michael Castle in 1985 where many guests complained about being tugged by an invisible presence. One guest at that party reported seeing the girl in the corner of one of the rooms.

Other ghosts include a woman in a portrait who smiles at guests, a man dressed in Revolutionary War-era garb. The Mansion is open to visitors Monday thru Friday from 8:30am - 4pm, but reservations are needed for tours.

Human beings have always been more interested in others' life than their own. From actors to sports stars, reality TV personalities to politicians, we love knowing about their past and current affairs.

We want to know every good or scandalous thing they ever did!

Some celebrities and politicians (especially politicians) try their best to keep some of their past life hidden away from public knowledge, like on their personal servers, but eventually we all find out their big secrets.

Whether they're the world's biggest tyrants or the most widely appreciated world leaders, most of these people have shocking past stories they don't want you to know...

Bob Hawke

Wikimedia Commons

Bob Hawke is a former Prime Minister of Australia. Not only does this Australian politician hold the record for being the longest serving Labor Prime Minister, but he also set a "record" while he was student at Oxford University.

He once chugged a yard of ale (1.4 liters) in 11 seconds.

Osama Bin Laden

Osama Bin Laden, the founder of the al-Qaeda terrorist network, was known as a person who hated everything about the United States of America, but there was one thing he loved that originated in the US: volleyball. He was reportedly pretty good on the volleyball court. Now he's on Hell's Olympic team.

Angela Merkel

Chancellor of Germany and former research scientist Angela Merkel has been in the number top spot on the Forbes list of the World's Most Powerful Women for six years running. While she may go head to head with world leaders, she is terrified of dogs because she was attacked in the 1990s. She's not afraid of Syrian refugees though.

Richard Nixon

Wikimedia Commons

The 37th President of United States, Richard Nixon, was responsible for ending the role of America in the Vietnam War. He had some unusual taste when it came to food, though. He loved eating cottage cheese covered in ketchup and would sometimes add pineapple to it.

Abraham Lincoln

Wikimedia Commons

The most famous President, Abraham Lincoln, was inducted into the National Wrestling Hall Of Fame. He lost only once in his 300-some odd matches.

Adolf Hitler

Wikimedia Commons

One of the biggest tyrants of the 20th century, Adolf Hitler, was secretly into Disney characters and movies. He really loved Snow White and considered it to be the greatest movie ever made. He even had a copy at his personal theater.

Idi Amin

Idi Amin was the third President of Uganda. He self-bestowed the title "His Excellency, President for Life, Field Marshal Al Hadji Doctor Idi Amin Dada, VC, DSO, MC, Lord of All the Beasts of the Earth and Fishes of the Seas and Conqueror of the British Empire in Africa in General and Uganda in Particular".

He loved watching Tom and Jerry cartoons.

Saddam Hussein

Wikimedia Commons

Saddam Hussein was the fifth President of Iraq and ruled over the country for nearly 24 years. In addition to being one of the biggest tyrants in the Middle East, he also wrote a novel called "Zabibah and the King".

The book was anonymously published in 2000 and is a romantic novel about a woman in a terrible marriage who is saved by the King of Iraq. We're not sure what becomes of the woman's husband, but we'd bet it involved a LOT of torture.
