'Up' Balloon House Recreated IRL With Human Passenger

A delicate flower who drinks motor oil and bare-knuckle boxes trains for fun. You know how some people bite their fingernails instead of cutting them? Well I let crocodiles do it for me.

Hit the jump for a bunch more shots.

    Seen here proving she's not just limited to taking long ramps instead of the stairs, wheelchairer Sue Austin cruises around in the ocean on her modified wheelchair. No word how many mermen fell in love with her, but I suspect at least one plus a tuna. With a pair of underwate... / Continue →
