It gets even more interesting. From this circa 2007 NYTimes report[^]:
"He [the father] said this was not the first surgery performed by his son and that he had been training him for the last three years. The state health secretary, V.K. Subburaj, said Thursday that the government would investigate. "We'll get the report and then we'll see whether there are any violations," he said. "Prima facie, it looks like there is a big violation."" No shyte.
From the same report:
"Indians have long had a special fascination with world records, and reports of unlikely feats are staples in the media. Last year, a 4-year-old boy, Budhia Singh, attempted to run a 70-kilometer, or 43-mile, marathon to earn a spot in a local record book. Doctors stopped him after 65 kilometers when he showed signs of extreme exhaustion."
I don't think I could run 7km, let alone 70.

How to survive the climate-change apocalypse: Should I take my family (and could I eat them)?[^]
"If you can trust your family, take them, but perhaps make a contingency plan for which one you'll all eat first, and discuss it in secret with the others. (You might also make another plan about who'll be eaten second, and discuss this with whoever's left. If no one discusses eating anyone with you, distrust them all.) If your family includes any young children you are not prepared to eat then your chances of success are more or less zero, but you're probably accustomed to that feeling."
 
Actually I quite like the idea of thousands of sick bastards like this suddenly abandoning their homes and heading for the hills of Cumbria where they play a sick game of eat or be eaten.
It will reduce traffic and bring houses prices down a bit for us normal folk.

I love some of the comments:

Trees that fall down in the middle of the woods land on other trees;
trees that fall down at the edge of woods fall down on you.
madmonty
Yes but if the tree falls in a wood when no one is there, does it make a noise?
and if it didn't who would give a sh!t, especially being under ten feet of water.
jllondon
A bear, I imagine. They have form for sh!tt!ng in the woods.

but...if you are in the tube with one of them to Cumbria (or what ever) and she was pregnant would you give up your seat?

I used to think that it was necessary for me to intervene when stupid happens.
I'm glad to see that society pretty much takes care of it on its own.

The electronics required to build a small device to hide behind the cistern of a toilet that says "OK Glass, Video on" when it detects movement would be fairly trivial and would probably put an end to this stupidity.
In fact, any pop song with "OK Glass" in the lyrics would work too.

So, they're more stupid than we had thought

On the contrary, they appear to be successful. They've been indexed by google in many places, good luck getting rid of all of that.

Stupidity and success are not necessarily mutually exclusive. We have a lot of living examples

I'm not sure they that stupid after all.
What they want? Attention! They got it...

They get paid by the Google result. The number in the search is an identifier for an individual being paid to post spam as much as possible. The more results returned, the higher their stack of cash.

This is interesting. Google Search exaggerated this. At first, it says "About 30,200 results", but if you press page 10, then you are going to see this: "Page 10 of 91 results" (at this moment, it might be different for you). So it's 91, nothing close to 30,200...

It because Google indexed all the deleted posts too - when posted...
