The wine glass tower in Erfenstein, Germany was built on a rock shaped like a stemmed glass by a man famed for his drinking capacity. Once a year in India, 5,000 people dine under the surface of a river. The occasion is a three-day religious festival called "Til Sankranti". These pilgrims bathe in a sacred pool in the Sonar River, about six miles from the town of Hata in southern India. The strangest feature of the celebration is the one full meal each one is required to eat in leisurely fashion while holding his head under the water of the Satsuma pool. Believe It or Not!
