The story of the wife who exacted revenge on her cheating husband by hatching a plot with his three mistresses to superglue his penis to his leg is far from the first tale of creative marital revenge we’ve featured. Here are our five top tales of bafflingly strange ways to get your own back on your spouse:

Throw a cat at your wife

In January, 25-year-old Paul A. Wood of New York state was arrested after throwing a cat at his wife during an argument. The cat – which wasn’t declawed – struck his wife on the back. Neither the cat nor the woman were injured in the cat-throwing, according to authorities. Also in the ‘unusual weapons’ file: attacking your wife with profiteroles.

Burning 400 mobile phones

In a fine example of a considered and proportionate response to relationship troubles, a spurned Chinese wife set fire to more than 400 cell phones owned by her and her husband after he walked out on their marriage. The couple had owned a successful retail phone business before their relationship hit the rocks.

Setting a 110V booby trap for your wife

A man from Arkansas may have taken the notion of needing space in a relationship a little too far, after booby trapping his bedroom door so that his wife couldn’t get in. Authorities said that Herbert Caldwell Jr, 44, rigged up an electrical fence – normally used to pen livestock in – with a wire coathanger so that it attached to the doorknob of the bedroom door.

Serving your husband dog poo curry

An angry estranged wife in Scotland took revenge on her husband by feeding him a curry containing dog excrement. A court, where 47-year-old Jill Martin pled guilty to the charge of culpable and reckless conduct, heard that after serving him the dish and watching him as he started eating it, Martin burst out laughing. In her defence, solicitor Terry Gallanagh said that the case was like ‘an episode of Desperate Housewives’.

Setting fire to your ex-husband’s penis

A woman set fire to her ex-husband’s penis as he sat naked watching television and drinking vodka, according to Moscow police. The attack ended three years of acrimonious co-habitation. Asked if the man would make a full recovery, a police spokeswoman said it was ‘difficult to predict.’
