The world's record poo and the mystery of why the horse didn't board the train
The tales include a pilot and his dog surviving a plane crash off the California coast and swimming to safety, Anouk Gournier setting a new rope climbing record at the Eiffel Tower, the birth of the 250th California Condor chick at the San Diego Zoo signaling a conservation success, a horse that wandered into an Australian train station during heavy rain and was safely returned to its owner, and the discovery of the largest fossilized human turd from a 9th-century Viking, highlighting an unusual piece of history now displayed at the Jorvik Viking Center in York, England.

00:00:03.200 --> 00:00:11.839
Caloroga Shark Media. Hello Johnny Mack
with five good news stories. Got another
2
00:00:11.960 --> 00:00:16.640
plane rescue story for you. A
pilot and his dog survived a plane crash
3
00:00:16.679 --> 00:00:21.320
off the California coast. They swammed
a shore where they were met by authorities.
4
00:00:21.760 --> 00:00:25.800
The piper PA thirty two, a
single engine plane, crashed around five
5
00:00:25.800 --> 00:00:30.679
point fifteen in the afternoon. The
pilot are reported engine issues. The pilot
6
00:00:30.679 --> 00:00:34.560
and the dog were treated at the
scene for minor injuries. Not sure how
7
00:00:34.600 --> 00:00:38.039
far off the coast the plane crashed
or what kind of dog it was,
8
00:00:38.079 --> 00:00:43.000
but I'm glad everybody's okay. Meanwhile, in France, a Newke Garnier broke
9
00:00:43.039 --> 00:00:46.840
the rope climbing record at the Eiffel
Tower by climbing a one hundred and ten
10
00:00:46.920 --> 00:00:50.159
a meter rope to the second floor
of the Eiffel Tower. She did it
11
00:00:50.200 --> 00:00:53.159
in eighteen minutes and Nuke said,
I can't believe I just did that.
12
00:00:53.240 --> 00:00:56.520
It's so crazy. It was me
against myself, so I did what was
13
00:00:56.560 --> 00:01:00.119
necessary to get there. She is
a two time world opst course champion.
14
00:01:00.240 --> 00:01:04.400
She trained for a year before tempting
the climb. Meanwhile, good news in
15
00:01:04.400 --> 00:01:08.599
California. The California condor, which
is the largest bird in North America,
16
00:01:08.680 --> 00:01:12.079
went extinct in the wild in nineteen
eighty seven. If you're of a certain
17
00:01:12.079 --> 00:01:17.680
age, you probably remember that announcement. The new chick is the two hundred
18
00:01:17.680 --> 00:01:21.239
and fiftieth egg to be hatched at
the San Diego Zoo. It was born
19
00:01:21.239 --> 00:01:26.000
to mom Mexwi and Dad Zozol.
When Zozol was first brought to the zoo,
20
00:01:26.040 --> 00:01:29.959
the population had dropped to a low
of just twenty two birds. Nora
21
00:01:30.040 --> 00:01:34.480
Wills is a senior wildlife care specialist
at the San Diego Zoo Wildlife Alliance and
22
00:01:34.519 --> 00:01:38.480
said in a press release, reaching
this milestone feels incredible. There's still a
23
00:01:38.480 --> 00:01:41.599
long way to go, but being
part of this and helping the species recover
24
00:01:41.760 --> 00:01:45.400
is life changing. The new chick
has been named m I, a word
25
00:01:45.480 --> 00:01:49.760
meaning sky. Before hatching, m
I was placed in an incubator to be
26
00:01:49.799 --> 00:01:53.200
closely monitored by a care team.
Though it had been a brief concern for
27
00:01:53.359 --> 00:01:57.239
malposition, but the egg was given
a clean bill of health and returned to
28
00:01:57.359 --> 00:02:00.640
Zozol and mexway four hatching. Under
their recovery program at the zoos, Zolzol
29
00:02:00.760 --> 00:02:05.519
has fathered forty one chicks since nineteen
ninety three, many of which have been
30
00:02:05.560 --> 00:02:09.039
reintroduced to their native habitat. May
is expected to join them in twenty twenty
31
00:02:09.039 --> 00:02:13.719
five. That's awesome if you were
commuting a via train in Australia and you
32
00:02:13.719 --> 00:02:15.479
were like, is that a horse? Yep, it's a horse. A
33
00:02:15.599 --> 00:02:20.800
horse wandered into a train station in
New South Wales after scaping heavy rain.
34
00:02:21.039 --> 00:02:23.319
I don't blame your horse. In
a statement, and official of the Transport
35
00:02:23.360 --> 00:02:27.919
for New South Wales said, the
horse was reported to be wearing only a
36
00:02:28.000 --> 00:02:32.360
rug and demonstrating a bit of horseplay. He appeared to pursue an informant along
37
00:02:32.400 --> 00:02:38.800
the platform before unsuccessfully attempting to board
a train. They were happy the horse
38
00:02:38.879 --> 00:02:43.080
followed station guidelines by not crossing the
yellow lines. Good job horse. It's
39
00:02:43.199 --> 00:02:46.960
unclear to me why the horse did
not board the train. The horse was
40
00:02:46.080 --> 00:02:51.560
reunited with its owner after moving to
the parking lot area and returned home unscathed.
41
00:02:52.159 --> 00:02:53.280
I don't have a clever way to
get into this one. Let me
42
00:02:53.319 --> 00:02:59.680
just tell you the largest fossilized human
turd has been found. It apparently had
43
00:03:00.120 --> 00:03:04.400
longed. Is the word being used
belonged to a sick Viking back in the
44
00:03:04.479 --> 00:03:09.319
ninth century. The turd has been
valued at thirty nine thousand dollars. How
45
00:03:09.319 --> 00:03:14.039
big is it? Johnny Mack?
Eight inches long and two inches wide.
46
00:03:14.560 --> 00:03:19.479
It was discovered in nineteen seventy two
by construction workers. I'm not expert.
47
00:03:19.520 --> 00:03:21.159
I don't think I would have been
like, hey, you know what I
48
00:03:21.199 --> 00:03:23.400
think that is? I don't know. Back in nineteen ninety one, dung
49
00:03:23.680 --> 00:03:28.680
scientist doctor Andrew Jones. Doctor Andrew
Jones sounds like a made up name,
50
00:03:28.759 --> 00:03:32.439
doesn't it. Dung scientist doctor Andrew
Jones appraised the piece in nineteen ninety one
51
00:03:32.479 --> 00:03:36.360
in the name of insurance. He
told The Wall Street Journal at the time,
52
00:03:36.439 --> 00:03:39.000
this is the most exciting piece of
experiment I've ever seen. In its
53
00:03:39.039 --> 00:03:46.240
own way. It's as irreplaceable as
the crown jewels. Paleoscatologists have studied the
54
00:03:46.319 --> 00:03:50.360
turd, and they've learned that the
producer ate mostly meat and bread. Because
55
00:03:50.400 --> 00:03:53.000
it was a Viking and it was
the ninth century, the producer had a
56
00:03:53.039 --> 00:03:58.439
gut full of parasites. The manure
was found to be infested with whipworm and
57
00:03:58.599 --> 00:04:02.199
maulworm eggs, suggest and the Viking
often had an upset stomach and other gastro
58
00:04:02.240 --> 00:04:05.960
intestinal problems. If you would like
to visit the Pooh, you'll find it
59
00:04:06.000 --> 00:04:11.120
in a glass box at the Jorvik
Viking Center in York, England, where
60
00:04:11.400 --> 00:04:14.919
listen to this. In two thousand
and three, visitors dropped it. It
61
00:04:15.000 --> 00:04:18.160
broke into three pieces. It has
been repaired. I have many questions as
62
00:04:18.199 --> 00:04:23.240
to you. Let's just ask them
out loud. First of all, visitors
63
00:04:23.319 --> 00:04:26.040
dropped it, so it was like, hey, would you like to hold
64
00:04:26.040 --> 00:04:30.319
it like that? No? And
isn't it a museum piece? I don't
65
00:04:30.319 --> 00:04:33.160
get it, and I'd be curious
how it was repaired. The center is
66
00:04:33.199 --> 00:04:38.480
proud to call itself the Turn's Final
resting place. They even host a virtual
67
00:04:38.480 --> 00:04:43.079
workshop in February called Pooh Day where
you can learn about the dunge, significance
68
00:04:43.480 --> 00:04:46.720
and those They're five news source for
today. If you enjoy the program and
69
00:04:46.839 --> 00:04:48.879
tell a friend about it, they
might like it too. If you enjoy
70
00:04:48.920 --> 00:04:53.079
my company, I also host a
podcast called Daily Comedy Needs, seven days
71
00:04:53.120 --> 00:04:55.680
a week where we talk about stand
up comedy. That one is fun and
72
00:04:55.800 --> 00:04:58.199
also clean. All right, have
a great day,
