Why you should fall asleep to Dynamite by BTS

Why you should fall asleep to Dynamite by BTS

Science shows that it might be better to listen to uptempo music as you fall asleep.

Some dogs are traveling the world and have been to France, Germany, Austria, Czechia, England and Scotland. Maybe they'd like to stay over at the hotel made out of a former plane!

00:00:02.520 --> 00:00:08.800
The Shark Deck. I'm Johnny Mack
with five good news stories. Hey,

2
00:00:08.880 --> 00:00:11.839
good news. If you feel like
you don't spend enough time on planes,

3
00:00:11.880 --> 00:00:15.359
you can now stay in a Bowing
seven twenty seven balanced on top of a

4
00:00:15.439 --> 00:00:20.440
jungle treehouse and it comes with ocean
views. Yeah. Former Boeing seven twenty

5
00:00:20.480 --> 00:00:24.559
seven has been built in the canopy
of the jungle in Manuel Antonio National Park

6
00:00:24.600 --> 00:00:29.679
in Costa Rica. This overlooks the
Pacific Ocean and is regularly visited by monkeys.

7
00:00:30.079 --> 00:00:34.200
The Bowing seven twenty seven treehouse not
only has two bedrooms and two bathrooms,

8
00:00:34.479 --> 00:00:37.719
but you're fifty feet over the jungle. The inside of the plane has

9
00:00:37.719 --> 00:00:43.560
been decorated using lovingly restored local teak, resulting in beautiful wood paneling fuselage with

10
00:00:43.679 --> 00:00:47.479
three queen size beds. You don't
need to set an alarm, the monkeys

11
00:00:47.479 --> 00:00:50.640
will wake you up. This thing
isn't cheap. It is a running like

12
00:00:50.679 --> 00:00:54.840
seven fifty dollars a night depending on
the exchange rates at the moment. There's

13
00:00:54.880 --> 00:00:59.159
also the private jet Villa in Bally
that combines the luxury of nineteen fifties air

14
00:00:59.200 --> 00:01:03.359
travel with stunning scenery. That plane
was once part of them Mandela Airlines fleet.

15
00:01:03.679 --> 00:01:07.359
That jet was taken apart, quote
like Lego, transported to its new

16
00:01:07.400 --> 00:01:11.040
spot and put back together. That
one's a little smaller when it's a plane

17
00:01:11.079 --> 00:01:14.439
and not a hotel. It'll hold
only around one hundred and fifty passengers.

18
00:01:15.640 --> 00:01:18.840
Hey, if you like plane so
much, wantn't you charter a private jet

19
00:01:18.879 --> 00:01:22.200
to fly your great Dane around the
world. That's what Melanie and Albert did.

20
00:01:22.200 --> 00:01:26.920
It only cost around ninety six thousand
dollars. Yeah. Millian and Albert

21
00:01:26.040 --> 00:01:30.200
dreamed of traveling Europe with their three
dogs. Lucas he's two, Cooper,

22
00:01:30.239 --> 00:01:34.840
the Golden Retriever's fifteen. Little Brooklyn
is a dashound six years old. They

23
00:01:34.879 --> 00:01:38.879
have visited six countries so far,
including France, Germany, Austria, Czechia,

24
00:01:40.079 --> 00:01:44.719
England and Scotland. They stay at
dog friendly airbnb's and plan to keep

25
00:01:44.760 --> 00:01:48.879
going until November and then they'll head
back home to Austin. Melanie said getting

26
00:01:48.879 --> 00:01:51.079
the dogs from the US to Europe
took a lot of planning, but we

27
00:01:51.079 --> 00:01:53.560
couldn't leave them at home. We
want to see the world with them.

28
00:01:53.680 --> 00:01:57.000
It took three months of planning,
cost eleven thousand dollars per person over one

29
00:01:57.040 --> 00:02:00.280
hundred thousand for the whole flight.
But now the dogs have seen Iris,

30
00:02:00.319 --> 00:02:04.599
Prague, Vienna and we're planning to
drive around the Scottis Highlands. I think

31
00:02:04.599 --> 00:02:07.560
the dogs really enjoy it. People
on social media ask why we didn't leave

32
00:02:07.599 --> 00:02:09.439
them at home. The dogs might
not know where they are, but they

33
00:02:09.439 --> 00:02:13.879
love exploring new places. It's about
having them with us and making memories.

34
00:02:14.199 --> 00:02:15.840
Sitting at the foot of the Eiffel
Tower and seeing them roll on the grass,

35
00:02:16.080 --> 00:02:19.800
or at the Christmas markets or running
on the beach in Edinburgh. It's

36
00:02:19.800 --> 00:02:23.159
all just incredible. Hey, good
news if you lost her Victorian ring,

37
00:02:23.439 --> 00:02:25.759
because it made its way back to
you after a chance encounter on Facebook.

38
00:02:27.039 --> 00:02:30.960
Jemma found the silver ring thirty four
years ago. It had two mysterious names

39
00:02:30.960 --> 00:02:32.680
on it. She kept it in
a safe and hoped to reconnect it with

40
00:02:32.719 --> 00:02:36.240
its owner. One day, she
kind of forgot about it, and then

41
00:02:36.319 --> 00:02:38.439
late last year she stumbled across the
ring again. She decided to go on

42
00:02:38.520 --> 00:02:44.080
ancestry dot com. The ring was
inscribed with the names Vincent and Walter Hand

43
00:02:44.199 --> 00:02:46.560
and their birth and death dates.
The date show that Vincent passed away when

44
00:02:46.560 --> 00:02:50.680
he was just two years old due
to tuberculosis. Months later, Walter fell

45
00:02:50.759 --> 00:02:53.120
victim of the same disease. Jemma
explained, eight year old May just thought

46
00:02:53.120 --> 00:02:55.879
it was too sad to be melted
down. It meant something to somebody.

47
00:02:55.879 --> 00:02:59.360
It really struck me that it would
have been such a heartbreak for a woman

48
00:02:59.360 --> 00:03:01.000
to lose a child so young.
I always hoped to know who would belonged

49
00:03:01.039 --> 00:03:04.840
to, and I thought it was
so sad that whoever she lost, those

50
00:03:04.919 --> 00:03:07.960
people so close together, and one
of them so young. Jemma went digging.

51
00:03:07.120 --> 00:03:10.479
She found the ring belongs to a
lady named Hannah Hand. She was

52
00:03:10.520 --> 00:03:14.360
on Facebook, so on the name
Hand in a group about her hometown.

53
00:03:14.840 --> 00:03:19.159
She contacted the post author discovered he's
married to Susan Girard, who's the great

54
00:03:19.280 --> 00:03:23.919
great granddaughter of Hannah Hand. The
ring was a family heirloom. The ring

55
00:03:23.000 --> 00:03:27.360
is now back with the family.
That's awesome. Are you having trouble sleeping?

56
00:03:27.439 --> 00:03:31.240
Maybe you're picking the wrong music.
Previous research suggested that slower, low

57
00:03:31.280 --> 00:03:36.439
tempo music with non danceable rhythms was
most likely aid with sleep, but a

58
00:03:36.639 --> 00:03:42.120
new research study from the Arhus University
in Denmark says June at all wrong.

59
00:03:42.199 --> 00:03:45.919
They found that upbeat, catchy pop
songs might be better for you. They

60
00:03:45.919 --> 00:03:49.520
analyzed a total of two hundred and
twenty five six hundred and twenty six songs

61
00:03:49.560 --> 00:03:53.599
from nine hundred and eighty five playlists
on Spotify that are associated with sleep.

62
00:03:53.960 --> 00:03:58.800
They split the tracks in a six
distinct subcategories. These subcategories aligned with typical

63
00:03:58.879 --> 00:04:02.319
characteristics of sleep music slow, low
tempo, acoustic, no lyrics. The

64
00:04:02.360 --> 00:04:08.520
other three subcategories feature music faster and
higher energy, such as Dynamite by betts

65
00:04:09.000 --> 00:04:12.759
Cia Vibe. Jasperson, PhD,
co author of the study, said it

66
00:04:12.840 --> 00:04:15.680
was surprising to see the degree of
variation within the music that people used for

67
00:04:15.680 --> 00:04:17.360
sleep. Based on previous studies,
we were expecting the music to be from

68
00:04:17.360 --> 00:04:21.959
many different genres, but I hadn't
anticipated that much variation. Doctor Michael Scullen

69
00:04:23.040 --> 00:04:26.959
said music listening could serve as a
distraction from internal thoughts and ruminations. It

70
00:04:27.000 --> 00:04:34.920
could fill your head with tunes rather
than your worries. I am Patty Callahan,
