product description
One for the grown-ups, this quirky new Ripley's book is filled with bizarre and hilarious "Believe It or Not" stories, trivia and lists - perfect for any fan of the unusual, and the ideal Father's Day gift. Some of the utterly stupefying stories within include: the craziest true CIA plots, including the cat secret agent and the pigeon guided missile; a gambler who broke Monte Carlo; the secret US nuclear launch codes that were reportedly set at '00000000' for 16 years during the Cold War; a man who successfully removed his own appendix while on an Antarctic expedition.
