Chinese man reveals pictures of an 'alien' in his freezer after claiming to have witnessed a UFO crash land near his house

A Chinese man has posted photographs of him posing next to an 'alien' which he claims to have trapped after it crash landed.
The pictures of Mr Li standing next to the rather crude looking extraterrestrial have sparked a frenzy of speculation social networking sites across China.
Mr Li claims he saw a formation of UFOs buzzing across the night sky along the Yellow River in Binzhou Shangdong province.

Far fetched: A man claims he found an alien on the banks of the Yellow River and stored it in his freezer

Outlandish claims: This bizarre and crude figure is apparently proof aliens exist after a man said he found on the banks of the Yellow River

Suddenly, one of the crafts plummeted to earth and soon afterwards Mr Li discovered the charred remains of the visitor from outta space in a rabbit trap, he claims.
Mr Li insists he took the bizarre looking creature back to be stored in a freezer at his home after the crash-landing in March.
However, the outlandish claims were quickly brought back to earth.

Social networks across China are awash with frenzied speculation and conspiracy about the pictures of an 'alien'

Not alone: Mr Li claims to have seen a number of UFOs flying over the Yellow River when one crashed to the ground and was electrocuted on one of his rabbit traps

Fake: According to a statement from Binzhou police the alien is fake and made entirely out of rubber

Police issued a statement saying the rather unconvincing figure at the bottom of a chest freezer was, in fact, not another life form but high quality rubber.
'The alien purported electrocuted and discovered by a man in Binzhou is a high quality imitation,' the Jinan Police posted on their Sina microblog. 'The body is made up of high quality rubber.'
Undeterred by the police attempts to pour scorn on the possibility the alien is real, Chinese bloggers are busy trying to connect the Shandong alien to a purported UFO siting in Hubei province.

Future forms: Lo Monaco House by Tom Wiscombe Design

The architectural designs of Tom Wiscombe are overtly futuristic, to the point that were you to drop his concepts into the depictions of the London and San Francisco of the year 2259 in Star Trek Into Darkness, they wouldn't look out of place. His Lo Monaco House almost resembles a futuristic shuttle on a launchpad, yet the influences for this design are entirely removed from the realm of space fantasy – according to Wiscombe himself, that is.

The Lo Monaco House concept is a tale of two forms: an eye-catching crystal-like pointed mass and the slab-like pedestal it stands on

Ultimate Privacy – The House Built in the Middle of a River

Have you ever dreamed of having a home in the middle of nowhere to escape to every now and then? I have. And this house built straight in the middle of the Drina River in Serbia fits the bill perfectly.
Standing on an exposed rock bang in the center of the river, near the town of Bajina Basta, this tiny house has been getting a lot of attention on the internet ever since it was captured on camera last year by Hungarian photographer Irene Becker. Her photo was published by National Geographic as one of the best ‘Photos of the Day’ in August 2012, and ever since then the mysterious and tranquil abode of Drina River has captured the imagination of millions. “I’m so glad that my picture makes this tiny house known to more and more people,” Becker said about her work. But in Serbia, the precariously placed house has been a popular tourist destination for decades, and a symbol of the picturesque Basta region. It was even nominated as one of the Seven Wonders of Serbia.

The house has been standing in its unusual location for over 40 years. According its owner, “this house was built in 1968. It was not easy to build then. But I finally made it happen with the help of my friends.” Back then they were just a bunch of young boys who loved to swim in the waters of Drina River and sunbathe on the large rock that now supports the house. Its lumpy surface wasn’t the most comfortable to sit on, so one day they decided to build a proper place to rest. They started bringing in planks from a nearby derelict shed, and before long they had actually built a cosy shelter complete with walls and a roof. It may not look very sturdy, but this wooden home has survived several floods and serious storms.

After all the recent online exposure, the house in the middle of Drina River has become a hot-spot for tourists wanting to see it with their own eyes.
