Narcissistic eyebrows, frozen human faeces and squeaky alligators are some of the whacky, but serious, science studies that have won IgNobel awards this year.

Still, Dr Giacomin added, it's important to be thoughtful about the results.Knives made of frozen human poop don't work

Australian-based physicist Ivan Maksymov and applied mathematician Andriy Pototsky, both from the Swinburne Institute of Technology, also won an Ig Nobel this year for their study on worms. The daydreaming Dr Maksymov then wondered what would happen if he vibrated some worms — which themselves contain a lot of water.So he put a bunch of earthworms on top of a pulsating sub-woofer for 30 seconds and lo and behold found subtle versions of the same beautiful Faraday patterns appearing on their body surface."It's quite funny, but it's quite serious science," Dr Maksymov said.

Dr Wagstaff said the finding supported a theory in evolutionary biology that kissing is a way people can select and keep a healthy mate.Kissing helps us choose a healthy mate, say researchers.
