MOOING
We all know there are people superb at imitating animal but, believe it or not, there is such a thing as competitive mooing. Shockingly, these contests tend to take place in rural locations noted for their dairy, like Wisconsin, and wherever British people keep cows.
*FAKINH YOUR DEATH
Chuck Lamb is better known as the Dead Body Guy. He wanted to be an actor but realized that he wasn’t very good at speaking roles. He regularly posts staged photos of his death
*DOGS GROOMING
It includes bathing, brushing, nail trims, ear cleaning, cutting hair and even creating incredible costumes for dogs out of their hair.

*SOAP CARVING
People take bars of commercial soap and carve them into beautiful sculptures…This isn’t some sort of casual thing, soap carving requires a whole set of tools and techniques, mostly learned by carving fruit. Only then you can become a soap carver.
*TAPE ART
People take a cassette tape, like from the 1980s, pull out all the magnetic tape from inside the case, and use it to create portraits or incredible pictures.
*TRAINSPOTTING
People watch for trains and when they see them, they write down the numbers of the train. They are interested in seeing all the existing trains in their region or country.

*NAVEL FLUFF COLLECTING
Graham Barker collects his own navel fluff. He has a Guinness World Record recognizing his collecting of the stuff for more than twenty years. He started in 1984, keeps it all in carefully labeled jars, and has greeted every single question about why he collects navel fluff with, “why not?”
*EXTREME IRONING
People find weird or unusual ways to set up their ironing board, do so and…iron their clothes.
*HIKARU DORODANGO
At first It was a pastime of Japanese schoolchildren. People make a ball out of mud and water only with a help of hands. After that they dry and polish it until it shines.
