A Turkish man is so desperate to give up smoking that he’s locked a cage around his head. Ibrahim Yucel, 42, repeatedly tried to kick his two-packs-a-day habit after his father died of lung cancer several years ago, but kept going back to the smokes.

He wears the device to work every day, and leaves the keys at home with his wife, to prevent a relapse.
