This week, we check out one of the weirdest, craziest stories, ever! He was an Australian javelin thrower, but there isn't much sports to talk about here. Why? Because this guy did so much more. Including putting himself into a wooden box, and shipping himself COD from London, all the way to Australia. From there, he got deep into drug smuggling, with some pretty ingenious ideas. Only problem is, he keeps getting caught. Including being caught with heroin in Sri Lanka, and being sentenced to death! Did he survive to smuggle another day??

Throw things for international acclaim, ship yourself 13,000 miles, and start a smuggling ring with all of your best friends with Reginald Spiers!!

Check us out, every Tuesday!

We will continue to bring you the biggest idiots in sports history!!
