News- US

http://youtu.be/KO3SX8DAwKY A decorated Russian scientist tragically fell nearly 500 feet to his death after a hiking app allegedly led him over the edge of a cliff in Germany. The freak plunge occurred on August 12, while the man, Dr. Dmitry Fedyanin, 34 — who hails from Russia but lived in North Rhine-Westphalia — was hiking in the picturesque Berchtesgadener Alps National Park, which is known for its breathtaking views and peaks that soar up to 9,000 feet tall. The Russki, who was reportedly traveling alone at the time, was using a navigation app to descend down to Gotzenalm near Koenigssee Lake, but was directed along a route with no paths, the Sun reported. Tragedy struck after the alpinist lost his footing on a rocky ledge and fatally plummeted hundreds of feet. “Our investigato...

Vivek Ramaswamy asked if federal agents were on hijacked 9/11 planes

News- US

http://youtu.be/VmEG3EE22_I Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy came out with a bonkers 9/11 conspiracy theory during a recent interview with The Atlantic magazine about the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riot, newly released audio revealed Tuesday. A profile by Atlantic staff writer John Hendrickson published Monday quoted Ramaswamy as saying: “I think it is legitimate to say how many police, how many federal agents, were on the planes that hit the Twin Towers. Maybe the answer is zero. It probably is zero for all I know, right? I have no reason to think it was anything other than zero. But if we’re doing a comprehensive assessment of what happened on 9/11, we have a 9/11 commission, absolutely that should be an answer the public knows the answer to. “Well, if we’re doing a Jan. 6...

Adams defends handling of NYC migrant crisis as hands-on mayor

News- US

http://youtu.be/knumcuIpQQM Mayor Eric Adams defended his handling of the migrants in New York City on Tuesday — saying he’s been a hands-on manager of the crisis as he faces criticism from the governor’s office. “I’m on the ground, I’m not detached from this,” Hizzoner said in a pre-taped interview on “CBS This Morning” when asked about reports of frozen food being provided to migrants. “When we hear about one of our service providers not meeting our standards, we immediately get in,” Adams said, adding, “I walk through surprise visits to see the quality of service.” “Once a week, I’m looking at one of the locations to make sure we’re reaching the standard.” Gov. Kathy Hochul’s office slammed the Big Apple’s mayor last week, writing in a scathing court filing that he’s been slow to a...

News- US

http://youtu.be/Spt8lcx7Atc Passengers aboard an Alaska Airlines flight bound for California received the scare of a lifetime when their plane began shaking, sparking and smoking during a rough landing. Video from inside Flight 1288 shows the moment the plane, which departed from Seattle, was landing at John Wayne Airport on Sunday, much to the excitement of 16-year-old passenger Abhi Amineni, who was filming the scene. The teen’s fascination, however, quickly turned to terror when the plane hit the ground with a sudden jolt, with passengers heard screaming and cursing at the rough landing. When the teen’s camera refocuses to the view outside the window, sparks could be seen flying up as the tip of the wing fit the ground, followed by thick smoke as the plane’s landing gear failed.

Chandrayaan-3 lands on moon in historic moment for India

News- US

http://youtu.be/6AtMcr0lAxk An Indian spacecraft landed on the moon on Wednesday (August 23) in a mission seen as crucial to lunar exploration and India's standing as a space power.

‘Incredibly Rare’ Fire Whirl Forms Over Canadian Lake

News- US

http://youtu.be/iOlf1eIq0ww The wildfire service in British Columbia has released dramatic footage of what they described as a fire whirl spinning over a lake during an out-of-control wildfire. According to the fire service, the video was captured by ground personnel at the scene of the Downton Lake wildfire in the Gun Lake area on August 17. The formation was the result of a “combination of high fire intensity, strong winds and air mass instability,” the fire service said. “Fire whirls are an incredibly rare phenomenon,” they said. “These unique conditions and extreme fire behaviour are not experienced on the majority of fires in British Columbia.” By August 23, the fire had burned some 7,382 hectares (over 18,200 acres), according to the wildfire service. #canada #tornado #wildfire...
