A rotten tooth from John Lennon was sold for R242 000 over the weekend.

Dentist Michael Zuk, 49, from Alberta in Canada bought the Beatle’s molar by telephone bid at an auction in Stockport.

Mr Zuk said he was “buzzing” after the purchase, which will join his collection of dinosaur teeth.

“Most people would say I was crazy, but I think it’s fantastic,” he added. - Daily Mail
