People who clearly live outside the Sunshine State have started the viral "Florida Man Birthday Challenge." Twitter user g_pratimaaa asked people to Google "Florida Man" followed by their birthday to hopefully top her Aug. 22 headline, "Florida Man tries to attack neighbor with tractor." Well, that's just a regular Thursday in Florida, so it didn't take long to find a more bizarre headline. Here are some of the most WTF Florida Man stories that Orlando Weekly has written about through the years. Congrats to everyone born on Oct. 8, also known as the day a Florida man reported a dead body by carrying the skull into a Publix and using it as a puppet.
