Thailand's creepy couple to marry

Kanchana and Bunthawee met at a snake farm


A Thai woman who set a world record by spending 32 days in a cage with 3,400 scorpions is to marry a man who holds a similarly creepy record for centipedes.

The couple will marry on Valentine's Day and plan to consummate their vows in a coffin, according to a sponsor.

The pair met while performing their respective stunts at a snake farm.

Kanchana Ketkaew's record was broken in 2004 by a Malaysian woman. Her fiancee, Bunthawee Siengwong, set his record by spending 28 days with 1,000 centipedes.

2. Tasty! A zoologist pal of mine says he's had those toasted in

sesame oil and fried in breadcrums - as special epicureal treat in some Sub-Saharan countries.
