Everybody has skeletons in their closets.

Sometimes, those closets are very open and contain pretty big skeletons.

This is especially true when you’re as world-famous as Donald Trump, Michael Jackson, or Floyd Mayweather Jr. These individuals have been criticized for inciting violence, sexual abuse, and domestic violence, respectively. Their transgressions against the law are often front of mind when people hear their names.

There are, however, individuals with just as open closets but with significantly smaller skeletons.

Here are five individuals I bet you didn’t know were once arrested.

Dante was staring at a motionless cock.

A pool of blood started to rally just beneath the bird’s breast. The surrounding audience, most of whom used a rude amount of borrowed money for their bets, went silent in excited anticipation.

The referee picked up the rooster and confirmed what its owner already knew — it was to be served for dinner. Red triumphed over blue, and luckily for Dante, his rooster’s corner was that of the crimson stain on its feathers.

Dante’s homegrown cock, proudly named Manny (after the Filipino boxer-senator), just won the “Royal Rooster Championships.” …

“They [the cockfighters] see themselves as the cock, as the proxy fighter. If your cock becomes tinola [chicken soup], that’s like the downfall of your ego. You don’t just lose money, you lose your face — and in many ways you lose your manhood. You lost your cock? You lose your manhood.” — Philippine Historian Xiao Chua

In my country, cockfighting is a national pastime. Almost every locality in the Philippines will have a dedicated pit where sabongeros (cockfighters) can have their prized fighting cocks engage in a fight to do death.

In sabong (cockfighting), the winning cock gets to…

Having safe and protected sex has been a human priority a lot longer than you may think. The history of the humble, ubiquitous, and pregnancy-preventing condom stretches back to 11,000 BC, where a cave painting in France depicted the use of something that looked like the innards of animals.

Thankfully, we’ve come a long way since then.

Condoms before rubber and latex

The photo above shows Mamoru Shigemitsu, then-foreign affairs minister of Japan, signing their official surrender. While this formally ended World War II, lots of people had already celebrated its end upon the announcement of Japan’s surrender a month prior.

Both announcement and the signing of surrender are collectively called “Victory over Japan Day,” or VJ Day for short. For the Allies, both days were a momentous cause for celebration. Here are twenty-two photos that show just how merry those celebrations were.

While Wendy’s may not be the biggest burger restaurant chain globally, it is certainly among the world’s most popular. The once small operation has grown into a fleet of 6,500 stores in over thirty countries with forty years of service.

All this allows the company to rake in over a billion dollars worth of sales annually. It’s safe to say that the fast-food industry's redheaded and freckled darling is doing pretty well for herself.

But have you ever wondered who Wendy from Wendy’s even is? We know the McDonald brothers invented McDonald’s, but did Wendy invent Wendy’s?

Well, dear fellow…

According to the Catholic Church, Jesus is both human and God at the same time. I suppose that statement implies that he was also once a child since, after all, all human beings once were. This means that Jesus was once both a child and a powerful God-being in tandem. I don’t know about you, but I doubt things would turn out well if any child in present times were given the capacity to bend the rules of nature.

With that kind of power, why would they listen to anyone?

Tantrums would turn into ultimatums, and backyard scuffles could have…

Imtiaz Khan received a dreadful call on the morning of July 20, 2012. The voice behind the line announced that his brother just suffered a heart attack. Imitiaz rushed over.

When he arrived, it was already too late. His precious sibling had just died due to natural causes.

Imtiaz couldn’t accept it. He shouted:

“This wasn’t a heart attack! This was murder!”

His basis? The deceased, Urooj Khan, had just won a million dollars in the Illinois Lottery. Greed, after all, has historically been a motivation for foul play.

A Disturbing Discovery

Authorities initially proclaimed that Urooj Khan, a 46-year old immigrant and…
