    Alien designer HR Giger dies at 74

    The Swiss artist and designer of Ridley Scott's Alien, H. R. Giger, has died aged 74, a spokesperson at Giger's museum in Gruyere has confirmed.

    He died in hospital of Monday after he fell down stairs at his Zurich home.

    Born in 1940, Giger was best known for his 'Xenomorph' alien in Scott's sci-fi horror masterpiece for which he won a visual effects Oscar in 1980.

    He studied architecture and industrial design in Zurich and was known for creating strange dreamscapes. Meticulously detailed, Giger's surrealist paintings were usually produced in large formats and then reworked with an airbrush and usually feature scenes of humans and machines fused together.

    Giger described his style as "biomechanical".

    One of his pieces in particular - Necronom IV - inspired the titular alien killer in Sir Ridley's hit film.

    He also worked on Aliens 3 (1992) and, more recently, appeared in a documentary about director Alejandro Jodorowsky's unmade film of the book Dune. In 1998, he opened his own museum in Gruyeres, Switzerland, which alongside his own paintings and sculptures, displays works from his own art collection from the likes of Salvador Dali, Dada and Ernst Fuchs.

    The museum is run by the artist's wife, Carmen Maria Scheifele Giger.

    In December 2004, Giger received the prestigious award, La Medaille de la Ville d

    Shocking video shows high-heeled clubber tumbling down stairs in 'nightclub swan dive'

    This clubber tumbles down stairs after being failed by her trusty heels in hilarious footage.

    The unlucky reveller managed to somehow hold on to her dignity as she glided down the flight of stairs face first in the early hours of Saturday morning.

    CCTV shows her hands still holding on to the bannisters on either side of the stairs as she falls, making it look like she is literally “flying”.

    The woman, known only as Olivia, was quickly helped up by friends and onlookers. One pal who seemed a bit worse for wear took that little bit longer to reach her.

    Luckily, Olivia, a regular to the club wasn’t hurt, and just left with a few bruises.

    It wrote on its Facebook page: “Fall of the week goes to one our regulars Olivia, for this attempt on Friday night. Don’t worry, she didn’t hurt herself, she’s just nursing a bruised ego.”

    The nightclub is well known on social media for its sense of humour.

    In December, bosses posted a message from a reveller who had been captured on camera with his ex-girlfriend begging them to remove the photo from Facebook before his current partner saw it.

    Unfortunately for him, the plea went viral with more than 3,000 shares on Facebook alone.
