Interesting Images

I stumbled across a website entitled SlightlyWarped earlier today and I felt compelled to share some of their images. First off we have a very ill conceived Wolverine blow-up toy.

More curiosities after the jump!

This next image is entitled "Napalm Cavern"

Here is the description offered on the website:
Technically, this isn't a cavern but rather an abandoned Russian stronghold that was used to test alternatives to napalm. The tiny stalactites on the ceiling are not the result of natural phenomenon, but are actually caused by the melting of the red bricks under the intense heat of napalm and other weapons of war.


Here's another! This one is called "The Barreleye Fish"


Its accompanying description:
We have known about the barreleye Fish for a while, but only recently have we
gotten any pictures of this strange creature with a transparent head. The two green organs you see inside its head are its eyes while the two orbs that appear where you would think its eyes should be are the equivalent of fish nostrils.

Although very little is known about this fish, scientists believe that it steals its food from the tentacles of jellyfish and so, having its eyes encased inside its clear head protects them from stings.

Neat stuff, huh?

Pretty sweet, I had seen those before today Except for Wolvie. That fish freaks me out. I keep hoping that its a hoax.

PS When you copy and past something, make sure you take away the hard returns. You can do it in the html mode.
