Around The Weird: Bizarre News Briefs

Lee's Summit, MO (WFN) -- A Missouri man is breathing easier after nearly drowning. "The Kansas City" star reports the 54-year-old lost his car keys in a lake and was trying to retrieve them by tying a 20-pound weight to his waist and using a garden hose as a breathing tube. The man was saved by a person on the surface but refused medical treatment.

MELBOURNE, Australia -- Road raging drivers in Australia may soon have to pay for their bad tempers by fitting their cars with light-up signs which reads "I'm sorry." According to news.com.au, experts feel the apology signs could prevent drivers from getting hot under the collar if they're cut off on the highway.

MIDLAND, Texas -- Baby Jessica -- who grabbed headlines in 1987 for falling down a well when she was only 18 months -- is now a high school graduate. Jessica McClure, now 18, graduated over the weekend from Greenwood High School near Midland, Texas, according to the Associated Press. It is not clear though if she'll fall into college later this fall.

BROOKLYN, N.Y -- Passengers on Coney Island's Cyclone roller coaster really wigged out the other day when a woman's wig flew off and jammed up the gears of the thrill ride. Riders spent 30 minutes lodged at the top of a 75-foot drop while emergency workers and firefighters untangled the dark brown hairpiece. Officials believe the wig flew off an earlier passenger and became stuck under a wheel when the next batch of riders passed over it, but the owner of the wig still remains a mystery, reports the "New York Post."
