Today in freakshows, here is a short video of a girl who claims to produce razor-sharp (and, considering the source, HUGE) crystals in her eyes. They come at the rate of about seven per day. Her father, who catches the crystals, demonstrates how easily one of the crystals can cut paper.

This Lebanese girl's crystal tears have baffled scientists (and totally give me the heebie-jeebies). I mean, I'm quite familiar with eye crusties, but the ones I see every morning are neither this big nor this crystal clear , we don't collect them in the palm of our hand and they could hardly be described as razor sharp.

After a little investigating, though, I found this link to an old Skeptical Inquirer piece regarding the crystals. Looks like it's a hoax. Which, then make me wonder, what the hell is wrong with this girl's father? That's an eyeball! Those rocks are sharp!

I admire the effort to exploit his daughter for, what, financial gain? In terms of scale and versatility, though, he could use some tips from Dina Lohan and Britney's mom.
