Show Notes
Transcript

Johnny Mac shares five good news stories. In Cape May, New Jersey, police are investigating the theft of a Humpty Dumpty statue from a miniature golf course. Egyptian wrestler Cobana impressively pulled a 700-ton ship with his teeth and then two ships weighing a total of 1,150 tons, showcasing his incredible strength. Zurich residents voted to ban gas-powered leaf blowers due to noise pollution. Scientists discovered marine life thriving on unexploded Nazi torpedoes, including fish, crabs, jellyfish, and adventurous starfishes. Finally, officials in Austria successfully tranquilized and tagged Emil the elk, who had wandered from Poland or the Czech Republic, and released him near the Czech border.

Caloroga Shark Media. I'm Johnny back with five good news stories.

2
00:00:10.839 --> 00:00:14.400
Oh no, Humpty Dumpty took a big fall and now

3
00:00:14.480 --> 00:00:18.480
police are trying to crack the case. Yeah. So. Down

4
00:00:18.480 --> 00:00:21.519
at a miniature golf course in Cape May, New Jersey,

5
00:00:21.960 --> 00:00:26.480
some jerks took the iconic Humpty Dumpty, removed it from

6
00:00:26.480 --> 00:00:28.960
a structure, and dumped it down on the street. The

7
00:00:29.000 --> 00:00:30.839
cops say they're looking for two men who were seen

8
00:00:30.879 --> 00:00:34.000
on videos stopping at Ocean Putt Golf at around four am.

9
00:00:34.759 --> 00:00:37.799
One of them climbed the fence, rocked the statue back

10
00:00:37.840 --> 00:00:41.119
and forth, pulled it down, walked off with it. Four statue,

11
00:00:41.119 --> 00:00:43.560
which showed Humpty Dumpty with a big white head, red cheeks,

12
00:00:43.640 --> 00:00:45.880
yellow bow tie, blue jacket, and gray pants, was found

13
00:00:45.920 --> 00:00:49.679
several doors down. Cape May PD. You're asking for the

14
00:00:49.719 --> 00:00:53.159
public's help and identifying these two horrible men seen in

15
00:00:53.280 --> 00:00:56.359
multiple videos posted on their department's Facebook page. A right,

16
00:00:56.399 --> 00:00:59.640
We'll keep you updated on that. Congratulations to a hugely

17
00:00:59.640 --> 00:01:04.359
popped Egyptian wrestler. He pulled a seven hundred ton ship

18
00:01:04.400 --> 00:01:07.319
across the water with a rope held only by his teeth.

19
00:01:07.959 --> 00:01:11.599
He goes by his nickname Kabonga. Earlier this year, Kabanga

20
00:01:11.599 --> 00:01:14.640
pulled a train, and four years ago He's also single

21
00:01:14.640 --> 00:01:18.040
handedly pulled both a locomotive and a truck. So there

22
00:01:18.159 --> 00:01:20.640
was Kabonga. He pulled a seven hundred ton ship, and

23
00:01:20.640 --> 00:01:23.400
then to show how awesome he is, he pulled two

24
00:01:23.480 --> 00:01:27.239
ships that combined weighed around eleven hundred and fifty tons.

25
00:01:27.760 --> 00:01:29.840
Kabonga said, I pulled them both to prove to my

26
00:01:29.879 --> 00:01:32.040
friends in the whole world that God bless me by

27
00:01:32.079 --> 00:01:34.239
being the strongest man in the world. Now, how do

28
00:01:34.239 --> 00:01:36.920
you get ready for this? Kabanga followed a protein, iron

29
00:01:37.000 --> 00:01:40.519
rich diet. He consumed a dozen eggs, two hole chickens,

30
00:01:40.560 --> 00:01:43.920
and eleven pounds of fish every day, all while training

31
00:01:43.920 --> 00:01:46.519
for two hours, three times a day. He wears a

32
00:01:46.560 --> 00:01:49.519
mouthguard during the events, but has no concerns about his teeth.

33
00:01:50.159 --> 00:01:52.359
He doesn't even go to a dentist. I may have

34
00:01:52.400 --> 00:01:55.120
to move to Zurich. The residents of Zurich voted to

35
00:01:55.280 --> 00:01:59.519
ban the use of gas powered leaf blowers over noise

36
00:01:59.640 --> 00:02:02.560
pollu Jusian concerns. I was in my backyard one day

37
00:02:02.560 --> 00:02:04.840
mining my own business and it was so loud. I

38
00:02:04.920 --> 00:02:07.599
have a decibels app on my phone. It was eighty

39
00:02:07.640 --> 00:02:10.599
six decibels in my yard and somebody was using a

40
00:02:10.639 --> 00:02:14.479
leaf blower three houses away, So you go. Zurich. Sixty

41
00:02:14.520 --> 00:02:17.400
one percent of residents were in favor of the restriction.

42
00:02:17.520 --> 00:02:19.719
Now you can still use an electric leaf blower, which

43
00:02:19.759 --> 00:02:22.759
as you know, is much quieter, but only from October

44
00:02:22.800 --> 00:02:25.000
to December. Then you can get out of reek. In

45
00:02:25.080 --> 00:02:29.759
a German bay, marine life is thriving on unexploded Nazi bombs.

46
00:02:29.800 --> 00:02:32.599
There's the sentence. You were not expecting that sentence at all.

47
00:02:33.080 --> 00:02:36.479
Scientists called it one of those rare but remarkable Eureka moments.

48
00:02:37.120 --> 00:02:40.159
The scientists sent an unmanned submersible twenty meters down on

49
00:02:40.199 --> 00:02:43.199
the seafloor. They were surprised when the sub revealed ten

50
00:02:43.400 --> 00:02:47.599
Nazi era cruise missiles, and they found mostly marine worms

51
00:02:47.719 --> 00:02:51.319
living on the missiles. They also saw three species of fish,

52
00:02:51.319 --> 00:02:55.680
a crab, some sea and jellyfish, and plenty of starfishes. Now,

53
00:02:55.719 --> 00:02:58.400
the starfishes are adventurous. The other creatures stayed away from

54
00:02:58.439 --> 00:03:01.599
the explosive parts, but forty starfishes had piled onto an

55
00:03:01.639 --> 00:03:05.080
exposed chunk of TNT. One scientist said it looked really

56
00:03:05.120 --> 00:03:08.960
weird and good news out of Austria. I remember I

57
00:03:09.000 --> 00:03:11.360
had told you there was an elk running around. Well,

58
00:03:11.560 --> 00:03:14.960
they have captured a Meal. The elk taken to the

59
00:03:15.120 --> 00:03:18.560
Czech Republic border. The elk was tranquilized, fitted with a

60
00:03:18.599 --> 00:03:21.520
GPS tag, and released. Austrian officials said they would track

61
00:03:21.599 --> 00:03:25.159
a Meal the elk for thirty days. It's believed a

62
00:03:25.199 --> 00:03:27.240
Meal wandered all the way from Poland or the Czech

63
00:03:27.240 --> 00:03:30.719
Republic to Austria, but he messed up. He started approaching

64
00:03:30.800 --> 00:03:34.800
a busy highway during rush hour. That's going to get

65
00:03:34.800 --> 00:03:38.120
the officials involved there. And Austrian newspaper said the animal's

66
00:03:38.120 --> 00:03:42.840
departure was quote not entirely voluntary anyway, Hopefully a Meal

67
00:03:42.879 --> 00:03:46.000
will find happiness wandering around the Czech Republic. And those

68
00:03:46.120 --> 00:03:48.560
are your five good news stories for today. You have

69
00:03:48.560 --> 00:03:49.240
an awesome day.
