0:03 Caloroga Shark Media. Hey there, I'm Johnny Mack with five good news stories. Good news for eight year old William. He's got a stuffed animal back. Yeah. The family was heading home from a ski holiday. They stopped off at a restop in Wyoming and there was a lot of wind on the interstate that day. William was in the back of the car with the dog, plushy named Dog. Mom went out to get sandwiches from the cooler in the trunk. When William opened the door, there was some winds and off went dog. Dog landed in some high weeds. They couldn't find it. Nobody noticed until they got to the motel in Kansas and dog was missing. They cleaned out the car, couldn't find dog. William. Of course, upset Dad used Google Maps to find the rest area where they had eaten lunch. They saw it was in Carbon County.
0:55 They contacted the local sheriff's department. Bill wrote an email, Dear Sheriff, here's what happened. The next morning I got an email back from the sheriff. I commend you for taking your child's emotional well being so seriously. Nothing would make me happier than seeing if we can help insure dog's safe return to Saint Louis. Our patrol division has been notified. I'll attempt to search the area later today. Please tell your son were on the case. They did that. The sheriff texted Deputy Tyler and said, hey, go look for the stuffed animal if you got some time. The deputy was like, that's weird, but okay. Well, Bill got an email, a text, and a voicemail from the sheriff. Good news, we found dog Zena. The cat has been reunited with her family in Florida. She was found in a North Carolina animal shelter nine hundred miles from home.
1:39 The police had responded to a report of an injured cat. They were able to capture the feline and bring it back to the shelter. The shelter had one of those chips. How did the cat make it so far? Apparently the cat had wriggled out of a harness. When the family visited the area during Fourth of July weekend, they apparently hadn't found the cat. They made the nine hundred mile drive and picked up the cat. It's good congratulations, a guest to Christian. Christian broke the world record four fastest backward one hundred meters in heels. These records are out of control, folks. We got to dial this back a little bit. I like the content, but what are we doing anymore? Christian did one hundred meters backwards in high heels in sixteen point five five seconds. The previous record was a really slow twenty point oh five seconds. No wonder he broke it. There are rules. The heels had to at least be two point seven six inches and no wider than point five to nine inches, So don't show up with some point six inch heels. Those don't count.
2:38 We take this seriously. Now. This dude holds eighty Guinness World Record titles. Again, I don't know what we're doing, folks. Those records include fastest four hundred meters in clogs one minute one point three eight seconds, Fastest one hundred meters wearing flip flops twelve ten seconds, Fastest mile traveled while balancing a pool queue on a finger five and fifty two point three seconds. Fastest one hundred meters on a spacehopper twenty nine point nine one seconds. Fastest one hundred meters carrying an egg on a spoon in the mouth, seventeen point twenty one seconds, and of course, the fastest fifty meters backwards wearing swim fins eight point eight two seconds. Well, good news for the drunk raccoon. A nurse in Kentucky found a drunk raccoon in a dumpster. She decided she would save its life. She explained to the news she was curious because the dumpster smelled like alcohol. She went over and found the raccoon. Apparently, the distillery had discarded some fermented peaches in the dumpster and two juvenile raccoons had gotten stuck. She told the local news. I was like, we have to get them out. Was the motherly instinct in me, because I saw that mom and she was trying so hard to get her babies back, and she didn't know what to do. So the nights Lady Misty, she got a shovel, got one of the babies out pretty easy, but the second was lying in water, which was probably flammable at that point, seemed unconscious. Immediately I started doing CPR on the raccoon. The entire time I was afraid it would wake up and eat me, and raccoons carry raebies. I was afraid of that. Incredibly, the
4:09 raccoon recovered and was taken to animal control to sober up at the local vet. Nice job there and in Bavaria, Germany, police have solved the mystery of who's been ringing and running. Police in Germany were called to an apartment building. Somebody was ringing doorbells late at night and then leaving and was annoying. Well, you know who it was. It was a slug. Dominic lives in the building and he told the newspaper there was a slug sitting right on our nameplate. You could even see its slime trails. It crawled across the sensors. Police relocated the slug to a nearby grassy area and released it with a warning silly stories today. Those are your five good news stories for today. You have an awesome day.
