00:00:03.200 --> 00:00:11.359
Callaroga Shark Media. Hi there, Jenny Mack with five good

2
00:00:11.400 --> 00:00:14.320
news stories. Drake has added another line to his resume.

3
00:00:14.640 --> 00:00:20.239
He is now a gender reveal presenter. Yeah. Sally went

4
00:00:20.280 --> 00:00:23.160
to see Drake in Melbourne. Sally received the surprise of

5
00:00:23.160 --> 00:00:25.719
a lifetime when Drake agreed to do her gender reveal

6
00:00:25.839 --> 00:00:28.559
during his concert. So she's there at the concert and

7
00:00:28.600 --> 00:00:31.519
holds up a sign that reads do my gender reveal.

8
00:00:31.679 --> 00:00:33.920
Drake says it on the microphone. Well, Sally, it says

9
00:00:34.000 --> 00:00:36.119
right here that it indicates that the fetus is a

10
00:00:36.119 --> 00:00:40.840
mini Drake. He continued, Sally's having a boy, and Sally's

11
00:00:40.840 --> 00:00:44.640
getting fifty thousand Australian dollars for me. It's around thirty

12
00:00:44.640 --> 00:00:47.240
one thousand US in case you're curious. The crowd went wild.

13
00:00:47.679 --> 00:00:50.439
Sally posted a video on TikTok over a million views

14
00:00:50.439 --> 00:00:52.560
and says, my life is a complete love you, Drake.

15
00:00:52.640 --> 00:00:56.439
I'll never recover from this. Congratulations to a three year

16
00:00:56.479 --> 00:00:59.640
old water buffalo. The water buffalo lives in Thailand on

17
00:00:59.679 --> 00:01:02.920
a farm and has been named tallest water buffalo in

18
00:01:02.960 --> 00:01:06.519
the world. How tall? Johnny Mack six feet eight inches

19
00:01:06.560 --> 00:01:10.359
from hoof to withers. The water buffalo is named King

20
00:01:10.480 --> 00:01:13.480
Kong and is nearly twenty inches taller than the average

21
00:01:13.480 --> 00:01:17.159
adult water buffalo. The owner says King Kong's gargantuan size

22
00:01:17.200 --> 00:01:19.959
was apparent from the moment of his birth, hence the name.

23
00:01:20.359 --> 00:01:22.719
One of the farm employees says he's very obedient. He

24
00:01:22.719 --> 00:01:25.040
loves to play around, he loves to be scratched and

25
00:01:25.120 --> 00:01:27.519
running around with people. He's really friendly and it's like

26
00:01:27.560 --> 00:01:30.280
having a big, powerful puppy on the farm. Well do

27
00:01:30.400 --> 00:01:33.280
back to back records today, Speaking of puppies, a dog

28
00:01:33.519 --> 00:01:36.319
wrote his skateboard through a tunnel made up of forty people,

29
00:01:36.719 --> 00:01:39.439
setting the Guinness World Record for whatever this record's for.

30
00:01:39.879 --> 00:01:43.000
Coda is a Cocker Spaniel. Coda broke the record for

31
00:01:43.159 --> 00:01:46.959
longest human tunnel traveled through by a dog on a skateboard.

32
00:01:48.079 --> 00:01:50.959
This happened on that Italian TV series I've told you

33
00:01:50.959 --> 00:01:54.319
about before, My Italian's Not Perfect Low Show Day record.

34
00:01:54.680 --> 00:01:58.000
The previous record set by a Japanese dog, Dyed Chun

35
00:01:58.040 --> 00:02:00.959
back in twenty seventeen. That was only thirty three people.

36
00:02:01.000 --> 00:02:03.920
I mean, come on. The trainer encourages you to use

37
00:02:03.959 --> 00:02:07.000
positive reinforcement and discourage dog owners from punishment and other

38
00:02:07.079 --> 00:02:11.479
forms of negative reinforcement. Sweet story here. The Pittsburgh International

39
00:02:11.520 --> 00:02:14.319
Airport used social media to help a six year old

40
00:02:14.319 --> 00:02:17.319
find their stuffed animal. They posted, we found a bunny

41
00:02:17.400 --> 00:02:20.199
in our baggage claim area. We showed them lots of love,

42
00:02:20.280 --> 00:02:22.159
but want them to be warm and cuddled in their

43
00:02:22.159 --> 00:02:25.360
own home. They posted on Insta showing employees taking the

44
00:02:25.439 --> 00:02:27.879
bunny on a tour of the hub's facilities after being

45
00:02:27.879 --> 00:02:31.000
found abandoned. A follow up post revealed that the toy's

46
00:02:31.039 --> 00:02:33.520
family had been found. It belongs to a six year

47
00:02:33.520 --> 00:02:36.879
old named Waylan. The airport tells us her great grandparents

48
00:02:36.919 --> 00:02:39.560
picked up the special stuffy for her earlier today. We're

49
00:02:39.560 --> 00:02:42.199
so happy to reunite lost items with their owners, and

50
00:02:42.280 --> 00:02:45.800
it is especially joyful to reunite sentimental lost items like

51
00:02:45.879 --> 00:02:52.319
bunny and a mystery. In Germany, QR code stickers have

52
00:02:52.479 --> 00:02:56.520
mysteriously appeared on one thousand graves in Munich. The police

53
00:02:56.560 --> 00:02:59.680
are investigating. More than a thousand stickers were put on

54
00:02:59.719 --> 00:03:04.280
grave stones and wooden crosses at three cemeteries without any

55
00:03:04.280 --> 00:03:07.599
indication of where they came from or why. These stickers

56
00:03:07.639 --> 00:03:10.639
are one point ninety five by one point two inches

57
00:03:10.840 --> 00:03:12.520
and they have a QR code on them. When you

58
00:03:12.560 --> 00:03:15.280
scan the code, it shows the name of the person

59
00:03:15.360 --> 00:03:18.639
buried in the grave and the location in the cemetery,

60
00:03:18.719 --> 00:03:21.919
but nothing else. Wow. I would have guessed it's like,

61
00:03:21.960 --> 00:03:25.039
you know, promoting a band or something, but okay, you know,

62
00:03:25.080 --> 00:03:26.919
it could just be for data collection. When you scan

63
00:03:27.080 --> 00:03:30.000
those QR things, they do collect date on you. Police

64
00:03:30.039 --> 00:03:33.400
spokesperson Christian Drexler said, we haven't found any pattern behind

65
00:03:33.400 --> 00:03:35.520
this yet. The stickers were both put on decades old

66
00:03:35.560 --> 00:03:38.599
gravestones and very new graves that so far only have

67
00:03:38.639 --> 00:03:41.680
a wooden cross. People who have witnessed anybody putting stickers

68
00:03:41.719 --> 00:03:43.120
on the graves or asked to reach out to the

69
00:03:43.120 --> 00:03:46.840
respective cemeteries administrations. Police are trying to find out who's

70
00:03:46.879 --> 00:03:49.879
doing this, but are also investigating property damage because the

71
00:03:49.879 --> 00:03:54.280
gravestones were partially damaged and discolored when the stickers were removed. Hmm.

72
00:03:55.159 --> 00:03:57.159
Those are your five good News stories for today. If

73
00:03:57.199 --> 00:03:58.919
you join the program, tell a friend about it. They

74
00:03:59.039 --> 00:04:00.719
might like it too. An awesome day
