BRITAIN is full of eccentrics, none more so than 49 year old Stuart Kettell from Balsall Common in the West Midlands, who took three days to push a Brussels sprout up the 1,085m Snowdon mountain in Wales with his nose.

The BBC reports that Stuart trained for the charity effort by pushing a sprout around his garden.

“People definitely think I'm mad, and I'm beginning to think it myself,” said Stuart who aims to raise £5,000 for Macmillan Cancer Support.
