A 101-year-old woman in China has shocked friends and family after growing a devil-like horn on her forehead.

Zhang Ruifang, of Linlou Village in Henan Province, claims the strange growth first appeared only last year and has since expanded to be more than two inches long. Now it looks like another one may be sprouting on the other side of her head.

Her youngest son, 60-year-old Zhang Guozheng, said when a patch of rough skin formed on her forehead “we didn’t pay too much attention to it.”

“But as time went on a horn grew out of her head and it is now 6cm long,” he said.

Although it is unknown what the growth is, it resembles a cutaneous horn.

These are unusual keratinous skin tumors with the appearance of horns, or sometimes of wood or coral. The cause is still unknown, however it is believed that significant sun exposure can trigger the condition.

Har Parkash changed his name to Guinness Rishi, demonstrating that his goal is setting new Guiness records. This 67-year-old man already became father of the world’s oldest adoptee, after taking custody of his 61-year-old brother-in-law, and built the tallest sugar-cube tower in the world. Now he wants to become a human flag pole by tattooing 220 national flags on his body.

He has started his effort at the top of his head, continued with his face, got a map of the world on his stomach, and plans to get his privates tattooed as well. He just hasn’t decided what he’s going to put down there. Rishi’s efforts began in 2009 and he plans to fulfill his dream in three years time, but by the looks of things, he just might finish ahead of schedule

I don’t know if the guy who came up with this didn’t have a grill at hand or if he simply doesn’t like barbecue. But then again, who doesn’t like barbecue? Anyway, it turns out all you need to cook a delicious chicken, is an empty can of cooking oil, some wood and a match. So there you have it, next time you find yourself outdoors, in the mood for roasted chicken, you can improvise your own oven.
