The diver later confirmed: “There is no doubt — the dolphins actively protected me.” 💖 The diver was swimming with a pod of dolphins in the Bahamas when he suddenly spotted a large Atlantic hammerhead shark swimming straight toward him from the edge of the coral reef. Then something miraculous happened: Four young dolphins — including one named Chopper that he already knew — immediately rushed in, surrounded the shark, and drove it away. They “mobbed” the shark in a group attack, causing it to become disoriented and flee. This is one of those rare, incredible moments that truly demonstrates the intelligence and protective nature of dolphins towards humans. 🐬💗

Upscaled Footage Reveals Rare Glimpse of Wuppertal's "Flying Train" in 1902 The year was 1902, a serene and peaceful time in Germany before the onset of World War I and II. Recently unearthed footage, showcased in New York's MOMA latest film, "The Flying Train," as part of the museum's Film Vault Summer Camp in 2020, offers a remarkable look into life in Wuppertal, Germany. This captivating black-and-white silent film was produced by Deutsche Mutoskop und Biograph GmbH, providing viewers with a vivid glimpse of Germany's past that seems as though it exists in the present day. The star of the film is the Wuppertal Schwebebahn, famously known as the "flying train." As the film unfolds, we see the innovative electric suspension railway gliding gracefully through neighborhoods, passing by houses, buildings, riverbanks, and bridges. The footage also captures the hustle and bustle of daily life, with carriages and people bustling about. Additionally, viewers get a unique insight into the construction of Germany's train system at that time. The Wuppertal Schwebebahn, designed by Eugen Langen, began construction in 1898, and Emperor Wilhelm II was one of the early passengers to experience this revolutionary mode of transportation during trial runs in 1900. The train officially commenced operations in Wuppertal in 1901, becoming the world's oldest electric elevated railway with hanging cars. Remarkably, this iconic railway system still serves as a crucial mode of transportation for locals, carrying around 25 million passengers annually. "The Flying Train" not only provides a fascinating glimpse into Germany's history but also serves as a reminder of the country's peaceful days under the leadership of Emperor Wilhelm II, long before the tumultuous times of the two World Wars. Overall, this genuine and rare footage captures the essence of life in Wuppertal over a century ago, offering a unique and valuable perspective for modern-day audiences.

Extremist settlers attacked Palestinians in some 20 locations across the West Bank on Saturday night, a security source told The Times of Israel, with assailants torching homes, vehicles and other property. Earlier on Saturday, Yehuda Sherman, an 18-year-old settler, was killed when a Palestinian-owned pickup truck hit the ATV he and his brother were traveling in close to the illegal settlement outpost where they lived. No casualties were immediately reported from the fires, but the Palestinian Red Crescent said three people were injured in beatings by settlers in the village of Jalud, and six others were injured in beatings in villages in the Jenin area. A statement from the IDF spokesperson said reports were received of “Israeli citizens who burned buildings and property, and disturbed the peace in the area.” The statement said troops were working to restore order, and added that Israel’s security forces “condemn violence of any kind and will continue working to protect residents’ security and order in the area.” There were, however, no reports of arrests, which are highly rare in instances of settler violence. Attacks by extremist settlers have been taking place on a near-daily basis in recent weeks. Continue reading on The Times of Israel:

🇺🇸🇨🇺 A U.S. Navy surveillance drone spent six hours circling Cuba's coast... The same type used before the Venezuela raid An MQ-4C Triton launched from Jacksonville, flew Cuba's entire southern coastline, held a two-hour pattern near Santiago de Cuba, then circled Havana for another two hours before heading home. Flight trackers say they've never seen one fly this close to Cuba before. These drones typically show up in combat zones: the Black Sea, the Persian Gulf, the Mediterranean. The timing: the Pentagon is quietly ramping up planning for a possible operation in Cuba. Trump recently said he expects to have the "honor" of "taking Cuba, in some form." A U.S. delegation just landed in Havana for the first time in a decade. And Washington is choking off the island's oil supply. Last time this exact drone flew a mission like this from Jacksonville, it was a 10-hour recon sweep near Venezuela. Three months later, the U.S. raided Caracas and grabbed Maduro. Cuba should be paying attention.

🚨🚨🚨 The Chinese military has simulated battles near Mexico and Cuba during a wargaming exercise — revealed toward the end of a report aired on state television CCTV on Dec 19 (lower right video; CCTV seems to have taken down the original video from its website but I’ve managed to stitch together one that’s practically the same except some on-screen captions.) Cuba, the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean Sea, along with the Sea of Okhotsk and Taiwan, were among the locations of conflict scenarios visible on screens in the report showing PLA wargaming exercises. Despite closer economic ties with countries in the region, China has a minimal military presence in Latin America. But the fact that the PLA is modelling potential conflicts there suggests a shift in the Chinese military’s global ambitions. One screen in the report showed red and blue opposing unit “indicators” — represented by aircraft and ships — manoeuvring near the coasts of Cuba and Mexico. Some of the blue side congregated near Houston, Texas, and headed southeast into the Gulf of Mexico, while the red side was seen in the Caribbean Sea. In a typical PLA drill, the red side usually represents the Chinese military while the blue side is the enemy. During the CCTV report, a close-up focused on Cuba showed the lines of trajectory of aircraft and ships in the region in what was likely a simulation of a tactical operation. Chinese researchers were seen pointing to the screen and discussing the situation. The footage was recorded at a PLA wargaming event held in Xuchang, Henan province, which was attended by 20 units from across the military and its academies. Dozens of simulation systems were demonstrated — all of them developed in China. The report did not provide further information about any of the conflict scenarios. In another map seen in the report, the red side was shown clustered near Russia’s far eastern coast while blue indicators were positioned over Hokkaido in Japan and the disputed Kuril Islands. Taiwan also featured at the center of a map in one of the wargaming systems shown in the report. Beijing sees the self-governed island as part of China, to be reunited by force if necessary. Most countries, including the United States, do not see Taiwan as an independent state, but many oppose any forcible change to the status quo. Washington is also committed to supplying Taiwan with weapons for its defense. With tensions rising in the region in recent years, the PLA has held frequent exercises around Taiwan and also conducted joint training with Russia in the Sea of Okhotsk and the Sea of Japan. The Chinese and Russian air forces held a joint patrol earlier this month, with two Russian Tu-95 bombers flying across the Sea of Japan to join two Chinese H-6 bombers over the East China Sea. That came after Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi enraged Beijing by suggesting last month that Japan could intervene militarily in the event of a conflict in the Taiwan Strait. The CCTV report also showed the PLA simulating an air battle between Chinese J-16 fighters and French-made Rafale fighter jets. Details of PLA war games are rarely revealed – they are usually highly classified. According to the CCTV report, the wargaming event aimed to “help commanders learn how to fight without engaging in actual combat by creating a low-cost, immersive and repeatable adversarial environment”. It said the PLA’s wargaming systems covered land, sea, air, space and electromagnetic domains, with integrated cutting-edge technologies such as AI-powered models, big data analytics and real-time simulation engines.

🚨 FLORIDA MAN SAYS DOLPHINS KIDNAPPED HIM AND FORCED HIM TO BUILD AN UNDERWATER CITY Reportedly, deputies in Lee County found a man lying on the beach before sunrise Monday, soaked, dehydrated, and drawing architectural blueprints in the sand. When they asked what happened, his story got bizarre fast. He claims a pod of dolphins dragged him underwater while he was swimming and took him to a location about 40 feet below the surface. There, he says, they forced him to help build entire underwater structures including cities, towns, and condo-like buildings. According to the man, the dolphins communicated using clicks and had a leader named “Gerald.” He also claims Gerald somehow created an air pocket that allowed him to breathe underwater while he worked. The man says he spent three days helping construct the structures before the dolphins finally released him and sent him back to shore. But not before telling him something chilling. They would return for “phase two.” Doctors treated him for dehydration but reportedly found no head trauma or signs of mental confusion. Even stranger, medical tests showed seawater and marine particles deep in his lungs, something that normally causes severe damage after prolonged time underwater. Yet his lungs were functioning normally. The man reportedly holds a master’s degree in aerospace engineering and has experience with deep-sea technology, which he believes is exactly why the dolphins chose him. Some people think the story is completely fake and impossible. Others say the medical evidence is the part they can’t explain. What’s more likely here… this guy made the whole thing up, or something strange is actually happening in the ocean?

❄️ BREAKING: Poland’s Baltic Sea Freezes — Tourists Walk on Ice Near Gdańsk An extraordinary winter scene has unfolded on Poland’s Baltic coast after parts of the sea near Mikoszewo, close to Gdańsk, froze solid following days of extreme cold reaching –26°C (–15°F). A viral video shared by Polish account Ekonomat shows tourists and locals walking hundreds of meters out onto the frozen sea, surrounded by towering ice ridges known as torosy. The author captioned the clip: “Is this really safe?” The footage captures a man moving cautiously across thick, uneven ice floes under a clear blue sky, describing the moment as “not Antarctica, but the Baltic Sea.” A rare event in modern Poland Such freezing conditions are highly unusual in today’s climate. While the Baltic Sea is one of the few seas in Europe that can freeze due to its low salinity, full coastal ice sheets like this were last common during the brutal winters of the mid-20th century — and before that, during the Little Ice Age (14th–19th centuries). Historical chronicles describe people and even armies traveling across frozen Baltic waters during extreme winters. Legends speak of sleigh routes and even “inns on the ice” between Scandinavia and the southern Baltic shores. Beauty — and danger Despite the spectacle, experts warn the ice remains unpredictable. Strong winds and currents can crack even thick-looking surfaces within minutes. Polish emergency services have repeatedly urged people not to venture far from shore. The video narrator himself admits slipping several times and standing above waters estimated at five meters deep. A frozen reminder of old Europe The frozen Baltic has turned Poland’s coastline into a scene from another century — stunning, surreal, and risky. As tourists gather for photos and short walks, the event is already being called one of the most striking winter phenomena in Poland in years. For now, the sea has become land — but only temporarily.

It’s 1987 in Austin, and you’re just learning that the city buried an entire creek from the downtown map 📽️ THE DEATH OF LITTLE SHOAL CREEK AUSTIN, Texas (FOX 7 Austin) — Hidden beneath the glass and steel of downtown Austin lies a forgotten world where the city’s natural history remains preserved in the dark. While thousands of residents walk or drive atop the pavement daily, few realize they are traveling over a vanished landscape that was once a central feature of the city's early geography. The decision to erase this creek from the surface was finalized exactly 110 years ago today. On April 27, 1916, Austin City Council officially voted to encapsulate Little Shoal Creek, approving a $50,000 project to redirect the water into a massive subterranean tunnel. The move effectively "entombed" the waterway, allowing the city to pave over the natural banks that had once hosted landmarks like the 1905 Gilfillan House, which originally stood as a waterfront estate. Before it was forced into the shadows, Little Shoal Creek was a surface-level stream that originated from a natural spring on what is now the University of Texas campus. From its source, the water cut a path south through the city, flowing along Nueces and San Antonio Streets. This natural corridor served as a landmark for early residents until the 1916 project began the process to permanently redirect the flow into the dark. As the city grid expanded, the engineering was so massive that workers didn't bother tearing down the original stone bridges that spanned the creek. Instead, they built the modern streets directly over them. While the entrance to the system is modern concrete, the deeper one ventures into the darkness, the more the past reveals itself. These hand-cut 19th-century limestone arches—which once carried horses and buggies across the water—still stand 35 feet below the surface before the tunnel finally dumps out into the active Shoal Creek channel near the Google Building. While the historic limestone sections remain a silent testament to early Austin craftsmanship, the modern concrete portions of the drainage system have taken on a new, vibrant identity.

It’s 1987 in Austin, and you’re just learning that the city buried an entire creek from the downtown map 📽️ THE DEATH OF LITTLE SHOAL CREEK AUSTIN, Texas (FOX 7 Austin) — Hidden beneath the glass and steel of downtown Austin lies a forgotten world where the city’s natural history remains preserved in the dark. While thousands of residents walk or drive atop the pavement daily, few realize they are traveling over a vanished landscape that was once a central feature of the city's early geography. The decision to erase this creek from the surface was finalized exactly 110 years ago today. On April 27, 1916, Austin City Council officially voted to encapsulate Little Shoal Creek, approving a $50,000 project to redirect the water into a massive subterranean tunnel. The move effectively "entombed" the waterway, allowing the city to pave over the natural banks that had once hosted landmarks like the 1905 Gilfillan House, which originally stood as a waterfront estate. Before it was forced into the shadows, Little Shoal Creek was a surface-level stream that originated from a natural spring on what is now the University of Texas campus. From its source, the water cut a path south through the city, flowing along Nueces and San Antonio Streets. This natural corridor served as a landmark for early residents until the 1916 project began the process to permanently redirect the flow into the dark. As the city grid expanded, the engineering was so massive that workers didn't bother tearing down the original stone bridges that spanned the creek. Instead, they built the modern streets directly over them. While the entrance to the system is modern concrete, the deeper one ventures into the darkness, the more the past reveals itself. These hand-cut 19th-century limestone arches—which once carried horses and buggies across the water—still stand 35 feet below the surface before the tunnel finally dumps out into the active Shoal Creek channel near the Google Building. While the historic limestone sections remain a silent testament to early Austin craftsmanship, the modern concrete portions of the drainage system have taken on a new, vibrant identity. These sprawling concrete corridors have become a labyrinth for Austin’s graffiti artists, with decades of colorful tags and massive murals covering the walls. This hidden gallery has become a centerpiece of the city's underground culture; many Austin youth now use these modern sections as a destination for secret raves and parties.

Today, Ukrainian city of Kherson is being hit daily by hundreds of Russian drones. A year ago, the region was attacked by about 700 drones per month; now, that number has risen to 2,700 in a week. In August alone, Russians carried out almost 10,000 drone strikes across Kherson region. The Dnipro district of Kherson lies in the "red zone", closest to the front line. In the Korabel neighborhood, not a single apartment block remains undamaged by strikes. Safety is relative: drones can reach any part of the city. ▪️ Everyday life in war Living next to the enemy has forced Kherson residents to adopt "survival rules": checking Telegram channels for alerts before leaving home; walking only under trees or along walls; watching both the sky and the ground to avoid mines. When driving, windows stay open to hear the buzzing of drones. Some residents install drone detectors that can warn of FPVs and sometimes even display an intercepted image from the drone’s camera. The most terrifying thing is to see your own car on that screen. It’s dangerous not only to step outside, but even to go out on a balcony. Evenings are spent in darkness: turning on the lights could draw attention, and Russians might send a drone straight through the window. Kherson residents call what’s happening a human safari. The city is not a "frontline city" - it is entirely the front line. ▪️ "Every drone should be treated as if you are its target" In Kherson, this is no exaggeration but harsh reality. A group of people is a more tempting target than a lone passerby. A car is a more significant target than a pedestrian. But in truth, any target may be attacked - even the least "interesting" one. Sometimes it happens simply because a drone is running low on battery, and its Russian operator decides to kill someone before it crashes. Kherson has become a testing ground for their maneuvers. The main goal is to make civilian life unbearable, to force people to flee. Today, about 60,000 residents remain in the city. Before the full-scale invasion, there were 330,000. And yet, bakeries, cafés, and even theaters still operate in Kherson. Local businesses often work at a loss, but people keep showing up for shifts - for many, it’s a way to preserve the city’s life and to feel needed. Despite mortal danger, bus and trolleybus drivers continue to run their routes. Alongside electricians, emergency workers, and rescuers, they have become true heroes for the residents. Anti-drone nets have only recently begun to be installed, covering key transport arteries. But it is nearly impossible to shield every street. The main protection comes from electronic warfare systems, which jam four out of five drones. Today, Kherson is a vivid illustration of what any city can turn into once the so-called "Russian world" draws near. But it is also an example of true resilience - when life, despite everything, again and again seeks to overcome death. 📹: US journalist in Ukraine Zarina Zabrisky Zarina Zabrisky 🇺🇸🇺🇦 / Voice of America Source: Ukrainska Pravda

🐟 Angler Fish spotted swimming vertically to the surface on the coast of Tenerife It could be the first recorded sighting in the world of a living adult black seadevil or abyssal anglerfish (*Melanocetus johnsonii*) in broad daylight and at the surface! A legendary fish that few people have had the privilege of observing alive. Until now, existing records corresponded to larvae, dead adult specimens, or footage captured by submarines. Emerging from the abyssal depths in vertical swimming, just 2 km off the coast of Tenerife and during a research campaign on pelagic sharks organized by the NGO Condrick-Tenerife (IG @Condrik_tenerife), biologist Laia Vilaró (IG Laia Vlr) spotted this creature at the surface. Shortly after, biologists Marc Martín (IG @vidamarina.tenerife), Antonio Sabuco (IG 山田三郎), and I (IG @jara.natura) recorded spectacular and rare images of the animal. This is a true deep-sea predator, living between 200 and 2000 meters below the surface. It uses its dorsal appendage, filled with bioluminescent symbiotic bacteria, as a lure to attract prey—just like in the popular movie *Finding Nemo*. The reason for its presence in such shallow waters is uncertain. It could be due to illness, an upward current, fleeing a predator, or other factors. Its genus name, *Melanocetus*, literally means "black sea monster," a name that comes as no surprise when looking at these images. Widely distributed, it inhabits tropical and subtropical seas worldwide and was first documented off the coast of Madeira. This astonishing discovery left the crew in awe and will be remembered forever. #deepseafish #anglerfish #abyssal #Melanocetus #CanaryIslands @DIVEVOLK_ES @Cressi1946 mares @NationalGeographicSpain National Geographic Animals @NationalGeographic @NationalGeographicTV BBC Earth #EarthCapture #Tenerife #NationalGeographicEspaña #marinefauna #FindingNemo #SpanishFauna

ALAN YENTOB’S CRACKED ACTOR FILM IS FIFTY TODAY “I’m just the space cadet...he’s the commander…” * Around this time on the evening of Sunday 26th January 1975, Bowie fans were recovering from the 10:15pm broadcast of Alan Yentob's fifty-minute BBC 1 Cracked Actor documentary, which was part of the Omnibus series. Fifty years later it's almost impossible to calculate just how important that screening was to Bowie-starved fans in the UK. In America, not only did followers of the man and his music have the Diamond Dogs/Philly Dogs tours, but they also enjoyed TV broadcasts of The 1980 Floor Show, Ziggy Stardust The Motion Picture and The Dick Cavett Show. After Bowie’s 70s TOTPs appearances and his first proper television interview on Russell Harty Plus in January 1973, there had been little to sate the appetite of the hungry Bowie fan on UK television. So Cracked Actor came as a very welcome oasis in an otherwise dry spell of Bowie TV. Filmed in California and Philadelphia during the legendary Diamond Dogs Tour of 1974, it captured Bowie at a transitional stage in his life, then again, weren’t they all? The BBC had unique access to the man on and off stage, in the recording studio and while travelling. This gave fans a rare glimpse of the private Bowie and it made for compelling viewing. As with the aforementioned UK TV appearances, Cracked Actor had a profound effect on fans. It was their first real glimpse of the incredible live presentations that never reached the UK and despite the all-access nature of the documentary, it only added to the Bowie mystique. Cracked Actor impressed some fans enough to write a book about it. Check out The Fly In The Milk by Susan Compo and Mark Wardel. You’ll recognise the title as a reference to one of the lines from the back of the limo in the film. Like much of the dialogue from The Man Who Fell To Earth the following year (coincidentally it was Cracked Actor that inspired Nicolas Roeg to approach Bowie for the film), many fans would learn parrot-fashion the majority of the one-liners that Bowie uttered throughout: “Bleedin’ wax museum in the middle of the desert...you'd think it would melt” and “I never wanted to be a rock ‘n’ roll star. Honest guv, I wasn‘t even there. But I was, you see, I was there.” And thank goodness he was there! In the unlikely event you’ve not seen this remarkable film yet, it’s easy to find online. Also, From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free has managed to edit together a full-length version of Cracked Actor from it for your enjoyment. Watch it here: David Bowie | Cracked Actor | Live at the Universal Amphitheatre | 5 September 1974 * Timeless quotation by Hannah Breschard from the film. #BowieCrackedActor #BowieCrackedActorLive1974 #NachoBowie
