This week’s weird news roundup brings us a spattering of interesting and cute animal stories: A movie star bear turned on his trainers and a little bear could ‘bearly’ keep his head up. In Florida, an alligator paid a visit to a Florida kitchen and in the canine world, a dog nursed motherless kittens while another one fell in love with a sheep.

We also saw some amazing people, including a man who is riding his bike backwards, another who was struck by lightning twice, and a 106-year-old pool shark.

One of the most popular stories of the week involved the hapless man trapped in an elevator for 41 hours (and if you ever wondered what cats do when trapped for 41 hours, take a look at this spoof).
