Vibrator, blender and bathtube

2008 Reader Submission
Pending Acceptance

News founded in Polish journal, SuperExpress, 04/29/2008

31 old woman who spent her vacation in Rewal, Poland felt lonely.

She constructed vibrator powered by blender (connected to the 220 V) power source.

She tried it in the bath and of course she was shocked.

Her neighbor said "She cried louder than my lawn-mower was working".

Unfortunately she survived, so she could be only nominated.

Here is a picture of the vibrablender http://www.se.com.pl/_gAllery/13/94/12/139412.jpg Link to the whole article probably will be sent to journal's archive, but picture should be OK.

A note to all you DIY-ers: Don't use your homemade blender/vibrator in the bathtub! Thanks for sending this in.
