In the ultimate accolade for the world's mad scientists, spoof Nobel prizes were awarded Thursday night for studies into beetle sex, turtles yawning, the desperation of people dying to urinate and other daffy investigations. The Annual Ig Nobel Prizes, now in their 21st year, were given at Harvard University in front of 1,200 spectators, with real Nobel Prize winners handing out the honors.

This piece includes color photographs and four videos, including a video of the full awards ceremony.
