Meet The Woman Who Wants To Break The World Record For The Smallest Waist



 
Michele Koebke has worn corsets for three years to shrink her 64 cm waist to a mere 54 cm. The 24-year-old from Germany told that she only takes her corset off to shower - she even sleeps in it.
"I started binding at the end of 2009," Koebke said. "I can bind [my waist] down to 41 cm (16 in). I want to get to 38 cm (14.9 in)."If she succeeds, she'd have out-shrunk the current Guinness World Record holder,Cathie Jung, whose waist is a minuscule 15 in.
But extreme corseting affects more than Koebke's outward appearance.
Because she cannot stomach normal-sized meals, she must eat ten tiny meals per day, according to Barcroft. She also suffers shortness of breath and has difficulty supporting herself without a corset.
That won't stop her, though. She told HuffPost she doesn't experience pain, and is set on trying to break the world record.

The candid counsel from Russian novelist, Leo Tolstoy, which says:  “Be bad, but at least don’t be a liar and a deceiver,” is evidently not heeded by most celebrities in the Nigerian entertainment industry. To these showbiz stars, speaking from both sides of their mouth is a thing of joy and pride. Over time, these entertainers have publicly lied and deceived the media, their fans and the world at large, only to be found eating back their words and burying their heads in shame, especially when the truth surfaces and becomes unassailable. The case of busty crossover actress, Foluke Daramola is not just one among many others, but also a clue to how our screen idols blatantly betray our trust in them. For instance, many months after denying her romantic affair with Kayode Salako, Daramola finally tied the knot with same man, to the consternation of many. However, while some have had to lie in order to save a situation, others have proved to be congenital li...

  After several weeks of discussions and bickering, the National Broadcasting Commission (NBC) has ordered the Broadcasting Society of Nigeria (BON) and the Independent Broadcasting Society of Nigeria (IBAN) to lift the ban imposed on all Nigerian artistes registered with the Copyrights Society of Nigeria (COSON) and begin airplay of the affected artiste's songs. The ban had been placed early December following the complete fall out between COSON and BON/IBAN over unpaid royalties of Nigerian artistes. COSON had been demanding that BON/IBAN release unpaid royalties of artistes amounting into millions of naira before the latter group got fed up and placed an airplay ban on the COSON artistes. The affected artistes included major acts like 2Face Idibia, D'Banj, Bany W, Onyeka Onwenu, Iyanya, Flavour, Ice Prince, Dr Sid, Olamide, 9ice, M.I, eLDee, Ruggedman, Wizkid, Asa, Waje, Omawumi amongst several others. Following NBC's lift of the ban, several arti...

Village In Abuja where people live inside sack houses

It is one common phenomenon to find makeshift buildings in different rural communities spread across the world, especially those nomadic settlements built with mud or blocks. However, what is not common is a community where the ‘super sacks’ houses are in vogue. In a rural Federal Capital Territory, FCT, a tribe lives inside such sacks as homes. Chris Onokpegu writes. Joseph Okeh resides in Oshodi, a suburb of Lagos and while he was watching a documentary on the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Abuja, he fell in love with the serene lush environment and an array of adorable plants littered with beautiful buildings scattered across the city. Due to the rowdiness in Lagos coupled with the traffic jam usually experienced on daily basis, Okeh decided to relocate to Abuja . However, little did he know that...
