Product Description

Book Description

The brand-new edition of one of last Christmas's bestsellers

Product Description

Following hot on the heels of last year’s best-selling edition, Ripley’s Believe it or Not 2009 offers a whole new feast of bizarre facts and fiends – all guaranteed to fascinate, surprise and amaze.

Stare in wonder at the man who swallowed a solid steel sword underwater; gasp at the pelican who ate a pigeon; and marvel at the man who swam down the Amazon, dodging piranhas, pirates and whirlpools. Illustrated throughout with extraordinary colour photographs, this fascinating book is a must-have for anyone intrigued by the stranger aspects of our planet and its inhabitants.
