Behold the 17 lb (7.75 kg) baby born to a Siberian woman in Russia!
A Siberian woman who gave birth to her 12th child - doing more than her fair share to stem Russia’s population decline - was stunned to find that little Nadia weighed in at a massive 17.1 lb (7.75kg). […]
"We were all simply in shock," said Nadia’s mother, Tatyana Barabanova, 43. "What did the father say? He couldn’t say a thing - he just stood there blinking."
"I ate everything, we don’t have the money for special foods so I just ate potatoes, noodles and tomatoes," she told the reporter, adding that all her previous babies had weighed more than 5 kg.

When Crystal Adams and James Chandler’s mobile home caught on fire, the quick-thinking couple grabbed their pet dog and fled. But they left their young boy inside!
Police said the firefighters learned that the boy was still inside the burning mobile home when Chandler and Adams told firefighters that they had forgotten the child. Police said that was about 20 minutes after the couple had gotten out.
"They were asked numerous times by law enforcement — I overheard at least once or twice — ‘Is there anyone else in these trailers?’" Brucker said.
The boy was conscious when a firefighter found him in a bedroom, Brucker said.
"You tuck your kid in bed, you should remember that he’s still in there," Brucker said.
