Boner Candidate #1: GOD TOOK GOOD CARE OF ME.
A woman in Pennsylvania drove into the path of an oncoming vehicle as a way to test her faith, resulting in two people being injured, police say. State police also say she showed no concern for the people who were in injured, the Associated Press reports. Nadejda Reilly, 31, is charged with aggravated assault and other offenses. She allegedly caused a wreck on Route 93 near Weatherly, Pennsylvania, on purpose on January 7. According to the AP, Reilly told an investigator she had been driving around for a few hours, waiting for a calling from God, when she decided to drive through the oncoming vehicle. “Reilly related God took care of her by not having her injured,” Pennsylvania State Trooper Bruce Balliet wrote in an arrest affidavit, according to the AP. “Reilly expressed no concerns or remorse for the victims. Reilly also stated she did not care if the other people were injured because God would have taken care of them.” Two people in the other vehicle were injured and taken to a hospital for treatment.

Boner Candidate #2: THE SCREAMING PIG.
A theme park has forced a 220lb pig to bungee jump from a 223-foot-tall tower in a promotional stunt that sparked nationwide outrage and was labelled ‘disgusting’ by animal welfare activists.
Footage taken on Saturday at the tourist attraction in Chongqing shows the animal whining in desperation as it was bound to a wooden stick and carried by two workers up the structure. A separate clip then captures workers dragging the pig which was clearly terrified to the edge of the bungee platform, attaching it to a safety harness before pushing it down. The pig can be heard screaming repeatedly as it plunged down the tower while being attached to a rope and a blue cape. The park has apologised to the public amid the controversy. A spokesperson told local media that the pig had been sent to a slaughterhouse, insisting that it was well. The controversial incident, branded as ‘golden pig bungee jumping’, was held by Meixin Red Wine Town in the district of Fuling to celebrate the opening of its bungee tower on the same day. The amusement park also claimed that it wanted to use the performance to celebrate the upcoming Lunar New Year. Read More
