    At a gym in central London called Gymbox, members have the option of lifting a unique kind of weight: human weight. The unitard clad “dumbbells” pictured above are five of the six employees (not pictured: Well ‘Ard Woman at 85 kg) who perform the valuable function of being lifted while shouting words of encouragement at the lifter.

    The “dumbbells” climb onto specially outfitted machines, allowing their weight to be used as resistance in a variety of ways. (And you thought members just wrapped their arms around these guys and picked them up. Come on, that would be SILLY!)

In fact, they’re suing Coca Cola, claiming that the detrimental effects of the 33 grams of sugar found in each bottle far outweigh any of the questionable benefits from the added vitamins.

    According to the head litigator, “Vitaminwater is Coke’s attempt to dress up soda in a physician’s white coat.”
