In 2013, a 60 year old Japanese man found out that he had been accidentally switched at birth. His biological parents were wealthy, but he was given to a struggling, single mother. While the infant who took his place grew up with all the luxuries and became the President of a real estate company, while he grew up poor and became a truck driver. He later sued the San Ikukai Hospital in Tokyo that made this awful mistake in 1953.

In 2019, an art piece consisting of a banana duct-taped to a wall was sold for $120,000 at a prestigious art fair in Miami. Created by Italian artist Maurizio Cottelan, the piece called "The Comedian" depicts how the importance and meaning of an object can change based on context. Two editions of this artwork have been sold, and the third one was said to go for $150,000.

What an art!
