• Mountain bike ace rides again

Mountain-bike ace Danny MacAskill - whose stunts have attracted millions of hits on YouTube - has done it again.

His latest amazing video Industrial Revolutions - shot for a Channel 4 TV documentary about urban sports - has notched up 400,000 hits in just one week.

In the five minute film, the former Edinburgh bike-shop worker can be seen pulling a series of almost unbelievable stunts, jumps, bounces and flips in a derelict industrial train yard.

But it still has some way to go before matching the 40 million plus hits of his original two YouTube videos.

Astounded users have been leaving comments such as "so impressive! crazy yet so awesome, great filming too!" and "I couldn't even do half those tricks in my dreams!! unreal stuff simply magnificent".

Others were so taken aback by the stunts they assumed the film was a fake or had at least been massively edited.

But as one poster pointed out: "I doubt it man, some people are gifted with inhuman abilities.? If he'd taken 50 tries on each one he'd probably be dead."

Channel 4's Concrete Circus teamed up young film-makers with MacAskill, Spanish skateboarder Kilian Martin, BMX biker Keelan Phillips and parkour or free-running experts Paul Joseph and Phil Doyle.

They're the shoes every blooming bride should make a bee-line for - unless she suffers from hay fever.

Florist Nikola Mihailovic, 29, is rushed off his feet providing wedding day shoes for brides which he painstakingly decorates with real flowers.

"Every girl wants to look like a princess on her wedding day and I've found a great way for them feel that way," he said.

"It started when I did them for a friend and people kept asking and asking."

Mr Mihailovic, from Gornji Milanovac, Serbia, travels to every wedding personally with a small battery powered fridge to keep the blooms fresh until the moment the bride walks down the aisle.

"I have customers all over the world and had to send a pair to Egypt recently with a freezer because of the local heat," he added.

• Giant rodent spotted at water works

The world's biggest rodent has been spotted at a water treatment works in California.

The giant South American capybara, weighing at least 100lbs, has since disappeared into the brush

"If you think a giant guinea pig is cute, then you probably would like it," said Todd Tognazzini, a lieutenant with the California Department of Fish and Game.

The capybara - believed to be an escaped pet - was seen at a waste-water treatment facility in Paso Robles, northwest of Los Angeles.

An employee at the plant took photos of the animal, which is estimated to stand 2ft tall, as it crawled out of a pond.

The animal spotted in Paso Robles was found near the Salinas River and a hot spring, a watery habitat similar to the regions where capybaras live in South America.

A capybara can hold its breath under water for up to five minutes, and spends much of its roughly four-year lifespan near the water.

The latest spotting of the capybara comes two years after another sighting of a capaybara a mile away.

Officials believe that was the same animal seen at the waste-water treatment facility in Paso Robles.

• Hen lays egg-stra large egg

A Chinese farmer is hopeful one of her hens can smash the world record for an egg.

Zhao Li from Feixiang County, northern China's Hebei Province was given quite a surprise when she discovered the egg, which measures an eye-watering 9cm long and 6.5cm wide with a circumference of 17cm.

The whopper also tips the scales at 420 grams, with an average egg weighing just 50g.

Zhao said "I've been raising the chickens for a year, I fed the hens with nothing special; just chaff, melon skin and grass."
