Punch, the monkey that gained millions of fans through a viral video of him cuddling a stuffed orangutan, has traded in his stuffed animal for a real friend. The 7-month-old macaque was lonely after being rejected by his mother and the rest of his troop at Japan’s Ichikawa City Zoo. But in recent weeks, Punch has become more confident and befriended a female macaque named Moe, and the pair have been observed playing together and hugging.

A Finnish circus performer named The Baron used his body piercings to break the Guinness World Record for heaviest vehicle pulled by the nipples. He lugged a 2,184-pound carriage across a stage, topping the previous record of 2,179.27 pounds set by Sage Werbock, The Great Nippulini. This is The Baron’s second nipple-related feat; in 2013, he broke the world record for heaviest weight lifted by the nipples by lifting 71.87 pounds and holding it for more than 8 seconds.
