From a headless chicken that lives over one year, to an out-of-this-world "celestial body" where it rains molten glass...We explore the most astonishing bodies through these truly unbelievable stories. Here are the true tales of not only the tallest human ever measured, but also the shortest person on record. What about the man who survived an iron bar through his head, or a Medusa-like body of water that turns its victims to stone? Brace yourself for the extraordinary.
