These are the last photos of French daredevil Marco Siffredi.
On September 8, 2002, he reached the 29,000-foot summit of Everest, strapped on a snowboard, and told his Sherpa he was going down the Hornbein Couloir, a route no one had ever successfully ridden. He began his descent and was never seen again.

The Missing sister is one the six Ancient greek statues called “caryatids” that was taken from Athens, Greece to London in the 1800s. It now sits in the British Museum, far from her “sisters,” who are kept in Athens.
Many people believe the statues should be reunited but all to no avail. Created by the renowned sculptor Phidias and his team more than 2,400 years ago, these intricate sculptures once graced the Parthenon, a majestic temple that stood as a symbol of the core of Greek culture and civilization.
The missing sister is a symbol of loss and reminds us how important it is to return things that don’t truly belong to us.

In 2008, 19-year-old George Garratt from Glastonbury, Somerset, legally changed his name to “Captain Fantastic Faster Than Superman Spiderman Batman Wolverine Hulk And The Flash Combined.”
He completed the process online for $13, aiming to stand out with a superhero-themed name.
The change reportedly strained family relations, with his grandmother ceasing communication.

Image files from the VisualDisk series of CD-ROMs were a major source of game textures during the golden age of gaming.
Games like Super Mario 64, Mario Kart 64, Wave Race 64, and The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time used these public domain photo libraries for skyboxes, items, and environmental textures.
