We are kind of impressed by this woman in England who, after getting stuck on an amusement park ride because she was too big for the safety restraints, decided to do something. She started watching what she ate and jumping on a mini trampoline as often as she could. Nine months later, she’d dropped 112 pounds. Uh, where’s my trampoline?

Exercising and watching what you eat––it’s the not-so-big-secret to losing weight. But some people just don’t want to listen. Keep on clicking for some of the craziest diets of all time, from injecting yourself with hCG to eating cotton balls to stapling your ears. We highly doubt a doctor would approve of any of these.
