Bulldozers Battle in China

A group of rival Chinese construction workers settled a dispute over a contract by engaging their bulldozers in a battle royale on the streets of a town in northern China on Saturday.

The Thunderdome-style throwdown happened in the Xinjiang county of the Hebei province. Video of the brawl shows at least six bulldozers engaged in combat on a busy street in broad daylight. One of the front-end loaders even manages to knock another over.

The mechanized beat down was motivated by a business dispute, the Associated Press reported. The two sides were competing over a construction contract when the disagreement became violent. It’s not known what exactly caused the two sides to saddle up on their steel beasts and ram one another like a bunch of drunk rhinos, but the combat left onlookers and motorists running for cover.

The physical engagement ended once police responded to the scene. By then at least two of the hulking machines had been flipped onto their sides.

The confrontation comes as China’s construction industry has hit hard times. Though the industry still represents about a quarter of the country’s economy, its growth is falling. It has fallen two-thirds from its peak about ten years ago, according to the Associated Press. The pressure has been felt by many construction companies across the country.

Though one man can be seen running away from his overturned front-end loader, there were no injuries reported.

This ( apparently ) is no joke. But, I guess it can go here,

New mattress can detect if you’re being cheated on

A new mattress on the market can detect if you are being cheated on.

The Smarttress, created by the Spanish mattress company Durmet, wants its users to relax their body at night and their mind by day.

There is no need to dig through your partner’s phone or question what they are doing when they are alone, instead the mattress will send alerts to a mobile phone whenever someone is using the bed in a questionable way.

“If your partner isn’t faithful, at least your mattress is,” says the website.

When the mattress senses movements it will send alerts saying the bed is being used.

The mattress can actually detect pressure points and tracks the intensity and impact per minute.
