Write a funny caption for this unique way of taking a bath
A quirky race in Switzerland last month made 'running a bath' quite literal. In Stoos, participants in costumes raced down a mountain in bathtubs.
This year's costumes included pigeons, gnomes, firemen, and Teletubbies. The event started by accident when a plumber's van accidentally let a bathtub slide down the snow, inspiring the idea for the race.

J-pop idol Kenshin Kamimura fined HK$15,000 after molesting interpreter
Japanese pop idol Kenshin Kamimura has been fined HK$15,000 after he molested a female interpreter in Hong Kong. The ex-member of boy band ONE N' ONLY was arrested in March and pleaded not guilty to indecent assault in April. According to the Associated Press (AP), Kamimura allegedly touched the woman's thigh repeatedly during a celebratory dinner in Mong Kok and invited her to a bathroom elsewhere. The court heard that the interpreter dismissed his advances and told him she had a partner. On Wednesday, Judge Peter Yu said the singer touched the woman in a caressing manner, implying a sexual undertone and indecent intent. 'The defendant's acts are obviously disrespectful toward women… Such behaviour should be condemned,' Yu said, according to the AP. During the trial, Kamimura's defence told West Kowloon Court that the claims were exaggerated and that the alleged invitation to the bathroom may have been innocent, the AP reported. The maximum penalty for indecent assault is 10 years in prison, though Kamimura avoided a jail term after his lawyers argued that he had a promising future and had already paid a heavy price. Kamimura's contract with ONE N' ONLY was terminated in March.

Dozens of Hong Kong, overseas Tottenham fans gather for club-themed drone show
Dozens of spectators, largely local and overseas Tottenham Hotspur fans, arrived hours before a drone show on Wednesday night at the Hung Hom waterfront as the city celebrated its first major football festival. Advertisement As many fans stood just outside or inside the Kerry Hotel in hopes of attracting their favourite players' attention, others walked around the premises and along the harbourfront to get a prime view of the show, which is due to start at 7.30pm. 'It's my first time seeing it, and I'm looking for something a little flashy,' said Ha Byung-jun, a 21-year-old student and Tottenham fan from South Korea. The drone show will feature dynamic Tottenham-themed animations and images, paying tribute to the club's storied heritage and passionate global supporters, designer OWOWWW Creative (Hong Kong) said. According to the Tottenham Hotspur Football Club's website, the drone show aims to mark the team's very first north London derby game outside the UK against Arsenal, and pay tribute to the club's history. Advertisement For some Tottenham fans, the show also provided an opportunity for them to see their favourite team at the hotel, with some even arriving early in the hopes of getting a photo with or an autograph with their favourite players. Among them was Caleb Shun, a 20-year-old local Tottenham fan, who said he had been outside the hotel with his friends since midmorning to get an autograph and a photo with South Korean Son Heung-Min, the club's captain and forward.
