0:03 Kalaroga Shark Media. Hey, why was our flight delayed? Oh? Someone brought a sugar glider and it escaped High Johnny Mack with five good news stories. In Eastern Airlines's flight from Shanghai to Janana, China was delayed after a sugar glider that had been smuggled onto the flight escaped. If you haven't seen a sugar glider, picture a flying squirrel. Police rode on social media. The animal's owner violated the regulations and took a pet sugar glider on board the plane. The sugar glider was eventually captured and removed from the plane. Fellow passenger Sam Jackson said, I have had it with these sugar gliders on these planes. A British mechanic broke a Guinness world record, but a lot of these records lately. This one motorized wheelbarrow. He took it up to a speed of fifty two point five eight miles per hour. Dylan told Guinness that he built his super speedy Gordon tool for fun before we realized there was a world record category for wheelbarrow speed. He told the BBC. I ended up building the wheelbarrow for fun and the little practice run messing around. I got it around thirty seven miles per hour, and then the question got asked if there was a land speed record for it. So it was just a case of finding out that the record existed and then deciding to actually do something with this idiotic thing that had built. He said. Taking the wheelbarrow up to high speeds is both uncomfortable and terrifying. Slowing down is the issue. It's only got breaks at the front. It does leave you aching after a couple of runs because it's got no suspension, and it just rattles you to bits.

1:34 I feel on top of the world. I mean, it's absolute nonsense, but it's quite a nice feeling. Sciences has getting it done. Researchers recently discovered that statins, which are medications used to lower cholesterol, can also suppress chronic inflammation, which is a major cause of cancer. Going to get a little detailed here, a team from the Massachusetts General Cancer Center found that the statin pete of vastatin you can check my pronunciation on that one, blocks the activation of TBK one dash IRF three, suppressing IL thirty three. I don't know what it means either, but it sounds promising and mice testing. The drug repressed inflammation of the skin and pancreas caused by environmental factors and averted the development of inflammation related pancreatic cancers. Over the years, these Simpsons have predicted a lot of things. Perhaps they are time travelers. An image on the lid of an ancient Egyptian sarcophagus. Where's this going? John Well?

2:27 On the lid of the sarcophagus A drawing of a figure that looks a lot like March Simpson. The coffin was unearthed in an Egyptian cemetery. It depicts a yellow colored woman on the lid, dressed in green clothing wearing a blue crown similar to March's tall hairstyle. I've seen this picture. It looks like March Simpson. The tomb dates back to the New Kingdom twentieth dynasty circa eleven eighty six to ten sixty nine BCE. A history buff explained on Reddit. This is the goddess nuts or Newts and ut. I've seen the other pieces belonging to this grave. I think the parents may just not have had a lot of money, so they did the best they could afford her shroud is a lot better looking, still in that same walky style, but so much more attension. Love's been put into it. Kind of hits me in the heart every time I see it. One red hitter said, so the Egyptians predicted the Simpsons plot twist. Congratulations to the world's shortest married couple. Know not so that they've been married, you know, not too long and got divorced. No, they are just not the tallest folks you've ever met.

3:29 Pallo and kat Usa from Brazil first met online in two thousand and six. They said, we may be short, but we have big hearts and lots of love for each other as well as everyone in our lives. Or life isn't without its challenges. We're so happy we can tackle these challenges together. The couple measure a combined seventy one point four to two inches. Pallo is thirty five point five to four inches, Katusia is thirty five point eight eight inches. Pallo said, I found her very beautiful from the first moment I've saw her. However, she initially blocked him on the messaging platform where I first met. He had to work to win her over. I don't know how he got unblocked, they continued to chat. They met in person in two thousand and eight. They made their relationship status official nine days later.

4:10 They were in a long distance relationship for four years until she moved to Polo's hometown in twenty twelve, and soon they decided they wanted to be together forever.
