Driver dancer

London, March 7: A Romanian truck driver is being hunted by police after releasing a video of himself dancing in his cab as he thunders along a motorway, reports The Daily Telegraph.

The driver — who apparently works all over Europe and the UK — handed the recording to a TV station and You Tube after filming his antics for friends.

As he cranks up the volume on a folk song, the trucker starts thrashing around the cab, waving both hands with barely a glance at the road ahead. Then he unfastens his seat belt so he can gyrate around the driver’s seat, before moving over to the passenger footwell to dance away from the control pedals and steering wheel. At one point, he even steers with his feet, showing off for the camera as he drives terrifying close to other trucks and cars.

Drug dare

London: A Chilean man with a broken leg has been arrested at Barcelona airport after his cast was found to be made of cocaine, not plaster, Spanish officials said, reports The Daily Telegraph. The 66-year-old was also carrying six beer cans and two hollowed-out stools that had been packed with cocaine and re-sealed, police said. The man, whose left shin was genuinely broken, was carrying about 11 pounds of the drug when he was arrested at Barcelona’s El Prat airport after arriving from Santiago, Chile.

iPod cover

London: The Mentalists, a group of four girls from west London, have downloaded music software from the iTunes application store on to their iPhones and iPod touches, and used the devices to perform a cover version of the MGMT track Kids, reports The Daily Telegraph. The music applications mimic the sound created by guitars, drums and synthesizers., and a YouTube video of the performance has already attracted more than 115,000 hits.
