When visiting foreign climes there are many strange ways to find yourself banged up in a stinking jail having your bottom felt by a toothless, whiskered oaf. Examples of such bizarre rule-making can be found in Indiana, where it's illegal to carry a fishing rod into a cemetery; in Hawaii, which has an odd law that inhibits the grass skirt wearing natives to insert a "penny" into their ears; and unfortunate parents in Mesquite could find themselves banged up just because they've allowed their children to sport an "unusual" haircut....

Supermodel Kate Groombridge took extra precautions to avoid spending a night in the cells in Borneo, where she shot these awesome pictures, because it's illegal to bathe topless. "In my line of work you can't have a bikini line so I couldn't sunbathe on the beach opposite the hotel," says the 20-year-old. "Myself and Jordan nipped around the corner, which was more out of sight, and sunbathed topless on the rocks." Although Kate's quick to point out she's not a total exhibitionist when it comes to stripping off for the beach. "I'm not the sort of person who walks up and down the beach wearing a thong and showing off," says the girl from Adlington in Kent. "It does annoy me that you get lines when you sunbathe, but I wouldn't go to a nudist beach, I think a lot of people who go there are a bit odd. If I want to tan that little white bit, I use a sunbed."

As much as she enjoys topping up the tan, Kate admits she's not one for just lying flat out soaking up the sun for two weeks, and on a recent visit to Australia she pulled on a wetsuit and wobbled about on a surf board. "My friends all go surfing in Cornwall, so I thought, 'Well I'm on Bondi beach, I should give it a go.' There had just been a storm so the waves were huge. I stood up, but then the board flew and whacked me in the face. I almost broke my nose - I was in agony."
