Flying Under Stockholm Long Tunnel

Flying a huge aerobatic RC-plane through a 2.4 mile (3.9 km) long car tunnel under Stockholm - piloted from a moving car... The challenge was to do the impossible, fly a huge aerobatic RC-plane under Stockholm in Sweden through a 3.9km long tunnel called Södra länken. The plane is 80" wide and weighs 13lb. The mighty electric motor provides 35lb of thrust and a topspeed closer to 120mph.

Swerving Truck Narrowly Avoids Disaster

CCTV from China captured the moment a truck driver dangerously swerved across the lanes on a bridge. Song Mingtang, the driver, was passing over the Zhoushan Cross-Sea Bridge in east China's Zhejang Province when he braked hard noticing that he was too close to a vehicle in front of him. He jerked the steering wheel to the left, setting the truck off balance. Wobbling heavily he veered left to right and left again before the truck tipped over. Fortunately, Song was unharmed and his passenger only sustained a small scratch on her head.

[www.keralites.net] STRANGE ANIMAL FRIENDSHIP

 


 
 
From: Jaffer Kassam

THIS SHOWS, WE ALL NEED
TO LOVE AND BE LOVED

 

 

 
A black swan feeding fish at a public park.
 
After a devastating forest fire, fire rescue ran out of crates for the animals saved from the blazes. 
This fawn and baby bobcat were placed together in the office. Hours later, firemen noticed 
they'd taken a liking to one another and cuddled for the duration they were kept together.
 

 
A duck and house cat raised together by a family. Supposedly the duck hates water 
and hasn't figured out yet that it can fly.

 
This macaque and dove lived together in an animal protection center off the coast of China . 
They ate, played, and slept together for two months before being released into the wild.

 
A wild life park in China adopted two tiger cubs, which were soon adopted by
 a worker's dog that happened to be in the pen frequently.

 
The Fernandez family adopted a tiger cub after he lost his family. 
He's been raised with the family dog since youth and they are inseparable.
 

 
A five week old boar plays with Candy, the jack Russell terrier in 
Ehringhausen , Germany .

 
Humphrey was a house pet that became too large and was moved to 
the Rhino and Lion Nature Reserve in South Africa , where he was safe but 
lonely. Cameroon Pygmy Mountain Goat climbed Humphrey's enclosure fence and befriended him.

 
Sobe the iguana and Johann the cat were both rescued by a woman in Brooklyn , NY .
 Every day when the iguana is let out of her cage, she seeks out Johann for play time, 
along with a rabbit also kept as a pet.

 
A baby hippo was swept away by a tsunami and rescued by a wild life reservation. 
A 130 year old tortoise immediately befriended him.
 
Everyone knows who Koko the gorilla that speaks sign language is. 
For her birthday one year, she signed to her teacher that she wanted
 a kitten. Koko's teacher wasn't surprised, as Koko's two favorite books
 were about cats. They adopted one from an abandoned litter and
 Koko showed it tender care and gentleness.
 
A lioness abandoned by her pack decides to adopted a baby impala 
after killing its mother. Several times, she tried to leave the baby in the 
company of other impala, but ended up having to take the baby back under 
her wing after the adult Impala were frightened away by her

 

 
A lion, tiger, and bear raised together in the same enclosure at Noah's Ark Sanctuary
 in GA play ball, cuddle, and chase each other.

 

 
A giraffe and ostrich form an odd friendship at Busch Garden 's in Florida .

 
A baby impala was left behind after the rest of its group ran away from 
the cheetahs. Instead of preying on the impala, they played gently with it a bit
 before simply getting bored and leaving it.

 

 
Owls that hatched at a hawk conservatory were adopted by 
the park keeper and became friends with his pet dog.

 

 
After a family took in this stray cat, she grew fond of their elderly dog. 
Realizing the dog was blind, the cat took on the responsibility of
 leading the dog to his water, food, shade, and toys. She would follow closely 
under his chin to guide him.

 

 
A stray cat wandered into this asiastic bear's enclosure at the Berlin Zoo.
 It's been coming back frequently for 10 years to visit its friend.

 

 
This pair have been seen together for over a year in Lake Van , Turkey .
 They were first spotted by local fisherman who witnessed them sharing a 
fish and playing together.

 
At the TIGERS institute in South Carolina , a chimp raises tiger 
cubs after they were separated from their mother.

 
A photographer witnessed a wild polar bear coming upon tethered sled dogs
 in the wilderness of Canada 's Hudson Bay . Instead of devouring the dogs, 
they played and cuddled. The polar bear returned every night that week.
