Ant Stealing A Diamond From A Jewelry Store In New York
An ant was caught on camera carrying a precious stone with it. Ok, it was diamond! It hasn't been accounted for whether the ant was caught by experts, or whether the jewel has come back to the legitimate proprietor.
A brazen jewelry thief was caught on camera! This ant didn’t even bother to hide his identity he just tried to run with the diamond! Ants can lift between 10 and 20 times their own body weight, which means this thief could escape with a much bigger diamond if it had tried!
Sitting in the precious stone trade, bizarre things began to happen. A precious stone heist visible to everyone. An extraordinarily solid subterranean insect is taking a precious stone off the table! How incredible!
This is a video of an ant endeavoring to take a free jewel from the table of a pearl distributor, apparently to ask his exceptional insect woman companion to wed him. How adorable! Tragically, she's more likely to say no, referencing ants should have the capacity to lift more than twenty times their body weight (and roll even far more than that), and she expected altogether bigger diamond. What do you think, is she going to say yes?
This jeweler was lucky that he saw this cheeky little <a href="https://rumble.com/v3dhe0-ant-colony-keeps-busy-clearing-trails.html" target="_blank">ant</a> walking away with the diamond. It is amazing how much weight they can carry. Luckily this little thief was spotted before he got away.
Info from Licensor: "An ant casually rolling a diamond away in the office of a diamond wholesaler." This little burglary happened on August 7, 2018, New York City, New York, USA. We've all seen videos of them carrying crumbs or leaves, but this little ant went a little bit further, he is more ambitious!
So, while that precious stone resembles a bit of a crumb on a human hand, but one that most likely costs a couple of months' pay rates - thoroughly speculating here; no thought what carat that jewel is or what it's worth - it predominates the subterranean insect.
It looks more like a boulder. Clearly, a boulder would measure significantly in excess of 10 times that of a human body, however.
This is more similar to the normal human endeavoring to convey a cow. Before you sneer, have you at any point had a go at lifting a cow? Precisely.
They are social insects, which implies they live in expansive provinces or groups. Contingent upon the species, ant groups can comprise of a huge number of ants. There are three sorts of ants in a province: The ruler, the female laborers, and the males of course. <a href="https://rumble.com/v4fpgl-harley-the-cockatoo-and-gizmo-are-the-queen-and-king-of-cups.html" target="_blank">the queen</a> is the main subterranean ant that can lay eggs.
There are in excess of 10,000 known insect species found over the globe and have been the subject of numerous movies and network shows. Ants are genuinely entrancing animals.
Ants have essentially vanquished the whole globe. Except for Antarctica, the Arctic, and a bunch of islands, there are no less than one local animal categories found on each mainland. Cool!

Wind Shear Forces Pilot To Perform A Go-Around
If you are one of those people with a strong and irrational fear of flying, then you better not watch this video. Although, it has been said that facing your fears is the best way to overcome them.
Statistically speaking, air travel is the safest mode of transportation, but a little <a href="https://rumble.com/v3adw8-turbulence-makes-for-dramatic-landing-at-birmingham-airport.html" target="_blank">turbulence</a> can make even the most seasoned of journeymen slide to the edge of their seats. Last year was the safest in air travel history.
Statistics don’t lie – landing is the hardest and most dangerous phase of the flight. It can be so challenging, that the pilot might approach the tarmac and evade it at the last moment, a maneuver called “go-around”. The pilot of this Boeing 737 by the company KLM had a moment just like it in this here footage.
The plane can be seen encountering what is known as <a href="https://rumble.com/v34a1h-plane-fails-to-land-due-to-windshear.html" target="_blank">wind shear</a>, a difference in wind speed and/or direction over a relatively short distance in the atmosphere. The wind shear made it extremely difficult for the pilot to land the steel bird on the runway, but this man showed his skills and saved the plane from a disastrous contact with the ground!
Air currents are not smooth, so turbulence is common both in the air and close to the ground. No matter where you are, if you feel the turbulence hit the body of the plane, your thoughts instantly go towards a violent death by fire. Imagination can be a terrible companion on these trips, so just remember that you have a better chance to total your car on the highway!

Couple Saves Kitten Trapped Between Walls
I heard a baby kitten crying for about 3 days, I thought it was outside of the house, but the day we discovered that was trapped in between the wall of the house, was exactly one day before we rescued it.

And we still have her because is inhuman leave her like that, alone in the streets. "No way", so what is the point to rescue her and leave it to die. Not even think about.

Road Rage - Texting and Driving
Info from Licensor: "I noticed a car stopped 50ft from the line at a red light and did not move when the light turned green. Went into the other lane and noticed the driver was still sitting on her cell phone. At the next light she did the same thing so I started recording. Pulled beside her to get her attention and tell her to put the phone down, she ignored me and I went around her when she didn't go on the green light again. After a few seconds she passes by me within inches of my motorcycle and then brake checks me down the road."

This Newborn Donkey Asks For Hugs In The Cutest Way
We love miniature everything! <a href="https://rumble.com/v31sum-a-miniature-horse-against-all-odds..html" target="_blank">Miniature horses</a>, <a href="https://rumble.com/v3mrjh-miniature-pig-gets-himself-turned-up-and-cant-stop-having-fun.html" target="_blank">miniature piglets</a>, they all have a little something fairytale like about them that makes us want to get them all… But have you heard of miniature donkeys?
This miniature donkey is named Gunner and was born just 8 hours before this video was taken at Pixie Farms in Crowley, Texas, USA. The mini donkey foal is so young, yet he already knows the magical power of hugs and when his handler came to play with him for a while, Gunner keeps nudging him with his head, asking for more!
He has yet to experience the true meaning of the outside world, but he knows that this man is his friend and just won’t peel himself away from him. So adorable! Hugs are part of a universal language that is understood without a doubt everywhere in the world. You don’t to speak the language to give someone a warm hug!
Pixie Farms is a Registered Miniature Donkey Hobby Farm located in Crowley, Texas. On their Facebook page, they say: “Our family has always loved animals so we decided to use our land for our passion. We currently have Miniature Donkeys, Great Pyrenees Livestock Guardian Dogs, Chickens, Guinea Fowl, and Turkey. Life is never dull (or quiet) around our farm and we love it that way!"

Playful Emu Loves To Play Under The Lawn Sprinklers
Emu’s have to be so much fun just to watch them run around, but have you seen one do this? Her owner says: "This is Blacky one of four of my pet emu's. She is 3 years old and pretty nasty and crazy, but at the end of the day she is an emu and just loves water! They are quite an unbalanced creature as you can see."
This pet emu looks like it is having the time of its life right now! The way she plays around in the water is just so funny that you can't help to grin from ear to ear! Also, can you see how adorable she is? She is just like a 3 year-old kid who loves to play in the water! Surely this is something that is only seen in Australia! This really is a precious moment that no animal lover should miss!
In fact, this isn’t the only animal, wild or domesticated, that love playing with lawn sprinklers. DudeLikeHELLA had the utmost pleasure to watch a wild animal has just as much fun with the sprinkler in his family’s backyard and he caught it all on tape. When that <a href="https://rumble.com/v31qio-baby-moose-attacks-sprinkler.html" target="_blank">baby moose</a> got up close and personal with the sprinkler, it was like watching a kid play with a new toy. So priceless!
Most people don't have the privilege of owning a pet emu because they do not live in Australia.

Rehabbed Deer Can't Stay Away From The Man Who Saved Her Life
A hungry and dehydrated baby deer was found standing over her mother, which had been hit and killed by a car.For the next five months, a man <a href="https://rumble.com/v32azg-rehabbed-manatees-released.html" target="_blank">rehabbed</a> the deer. He fed the deer five times a day with a bottle until she was healthy enough to run around on her own. After one month the fawn was released, and she still comes back to hang out with the man who rehabbed her. It is so adorable!
Steven, the man who nursed the fawn back to health, told that the fawn had been back a few times. Usually, when she comes back, she wants a bottle or just wants to play. This video occurred on November 3th, 2015, and the baby fawn was very cheerful, she acts like a real dog. She comes to Steven and likes to be petted on the head; she seems to be enjoying her little play time.
She has been domesticated and feels so relaxed when in the company of her new human friend. Steven says that he had rehabbed many <a href="https://rumble.com/v3tnkn-nebraska-deer.html" target="_blank">deer</a> over the years and a lot of them continue to come to him. What a joyous moment to experience! It is always satisfying to watch videos of animals that get nursed back to health. Watch this deer go, she is messing around and wants to be chased; she is so lucky!
Nature is a beautiful and wonderful thing. It is my firm opinion that we city folk don’t spend enough time communing with nature. There is so much that should be appreciated. The environment is a beautiful home to a lot of lovely creatures from beavers to colorful insects to deer. There’s no animal as majestic as the deer! Some people even have deer in the backyards as pets! They are cute and calm and so beautiful!
It is imperative for us people to save animals. Because every animal has a role in the ecosystem and they too deserve to live a life that they deserve. Animals are beautiful, wise, inspiring creatures and we should always protect them. They are the most precious thing on Earth who know only about harmony.
The happiness of this deer makes us even happier. Such a glorious moment for this deer, for its family that will finally be together with their baby, and for us, for being part of this fantastic video that melts our hearts!

King Cobra Doesn't Waste Time Attacking Python
This epic snake fight took place on the MacRitchie Nature Trail on the Northern side of the reservoir. Both species are indigenous to the jungles of Singapore and both snakes are apex predators.
Both species are known to eat each other but the King Cobra is known to feed on other snakes and often initiates the confrontation while the python more commonly defends itself by constricting and eventually eating the King Cobra if it is able to subdue it without being bitten.
The footage shows the cobra sneaking up to the python from the back and as the python tries to wrap itself around the cobra, she bites him on the back and leaves. Witnesses who were there said that the Reticulated Python eventually died from the bite of the King Cobra. It is unfortunate that the Python was not able to fight back. Even though the python tried to wrap itself around the cobra, it was too late. The Cobra had bitten it too fast. The cobra was definitely the one who initiated the confrontation, which led to an unlucky outcome for the python, death.
Have you ever seen snakes come in contact with each other like this before? Let us know in the comment section down below!

Oil Rig Rocks From Big Waves Like A Bathtub Toy
It is believed that storms in the North Sea make living aboard the Borgholm Dolphin very challenging. In extremely rough weather conditions, huge waves crash against the Borgholm Dolphin installation in the North Sea, making it look very fragile.
Filmed by James Eaton, an offshore worker on the nearby Lomond Platform, the storm began on January 10 but had been known about for some time. Offshore worker James Eaton captured a footage of the severe storm that swept across parts of Scotland. When a gale blew through the North Sea recently kicking up a huge sea state, the Aker H3-design accommodation platform Borgholm Dolphin was caught right in the middle of it. The rig is located adjacent to BG Group’s Lomond platform in the central North Sea.
Watch this terrifying footage as giant waves crash into a swaying oil rig. The petrifying footage shows North Sea oil rig battered by waves when a massive storm swells off the coast of Scotland. This footage alone is enough to make you seasick. Luckily, this nearby worker managed to catch the phenomenon on camera. The Borgholm Dolphin is currently on contract to BG Group according to Dolphin Drilling’s most recent fleet contract status.
The <a href="https://rumble.com/v3tm75-dramatic-fire-ripping-through-louisiana-oil-rig-captured-through-telescope.html" target="_blank">oil rig</a> is stationed in the North Sea, about 145 miles east of Aberdeen. The weather system was so strong that power was cut to approximately 140,000 properties in Northern Scotland at its worst. The <a href="https://rumble.com/v3tu63-water-spills-over-awoonga-dam-during-severe-storm-weather.html" target="_blank">storm</a> lasted about two days with big seas. There are a lot of storms in this part of Scotland, but there is usually no one to witness and capture it, so this is an unusual footage.
Built in 1975, the Borgholm Dolphin is a platform that measures 108m × 61m. A massive structure weighing almost 15,000 gross tonnes and is part of the larger Dolphin Drilling fleet, which also includes rigs off the coast of Norway.
If you too wonder and dream abut the power of the sea, take a look at this next video where a <a href="https://rumble.com/v3jnys-this-is-what-it-is-like-on-ship-in-the-north-sea-during-a-storm.html" target="_blank">ship rocks vigorously in heavy sea storm</a>. Dramatic footage, filmed 100 miles out at sea, has emerged showing what it's like on a large ship during a major storm. The video, filmed during Storm Gertrude from the bridge of a ship on January 29, shows powerful surges of water crashing against the vessel as it rocks and sways over the waves. You can even hear the ship creaking under the wrath of the storm. It really made our stomachs drop! As if the sight wasn’t bad enough, the hand-held camera also managed to pick up the sounds too!
The footage worthy of a Hollywood disaster blockbuster was shot by Chief Officer Graeme Hatley aboard the ERRV (Emergency Response & Rescue Vessel), a 150 foot long, 1100 tonne ship, as it is being thrown around in the rough sea. C.O. Hatley says that he has seen much worse in his career of 25 years rescuing boats on the wild seas.
Mr. Hatley said that they were expecting it to be like this two days prior. The storm was ‘quick to blow, quick to go’, meaning that the bad weather was intense, but died out quickly. “We were expecting the ferocity and the wave height and had gusts of over 100 knots before we lost our anemometer,” says officer Hatley. “We were, for the first time ever, given the chance to run for shelter but didn’t take it since most of us have been in worse weather and for a longer time.”

Red Octopus Disappears Down A Wormhole
Octopi are such amazing marine creatures - they can squish themselves down to disconcertingly small sizes to fit through holes, a skill presented by this Red Octopus , as it disappears into a hole on the ocean floor.
The footage, which occurred on April 22, 2017 off Monterey in California, USA, shows an East Pacific Red Octopus stuffing itself completely down a Fat Innkeeper Worm's hole.
The uploader says: “I decided to go look for octopuses out in the sand off the Breakwater Wall. I was surprised to come across an octopus disappearing into the sand. I found another octopus nearby, started the video rolling, and observed this fascinating behavior that I hadn’t seen before. When illuminated by my light, the octopuses would find and disappear into a nearby innkeeper wormhole. I observed several octopuses exhibiting this behavior that night.”
Here’s a fun fact for you: the fat innkeeper worm is also known as the penis fish, which will make complete sense if you've ever seen a picture of one. But this octopus wasn’t looking for some late night loving, if that’s what you are thinking. He was actually hiding from the diver that was filming it, or rather the camera’s blinding light.

Guy Almost Gets Dragged By A Sneaker Wave On Oregon Beach
What looked like a calm day at the beach in Coos Bay in Oregon could quickly turn into a disaster, if it weren't for this man and his powers of observation. Steve Raplee, the owner of the High Tide Cafe in Coos Bay, was recording the scene <a href="https://rumble.com/v36c8n-faceplant-at-the-beach-ouch.html" target="_blank">at the beach</a> when a sneaker wave came in, sending him and others scrambling for safety.
In the video, which was shot on January 23, 2016, we hear Steve record the ocean, as massive waves hit the rocks nearby. It is a normal day for the people of Oregon, to gather around for a day at the beach. Not even half of a minute has passed, when Steve turns around to notice the sneaker wave creeping in, so he yelled toward the rest of the beachgoers to clear the beach. “My God, that’s huge. I just got out of the way. It would have taken anybody in its path".
“Sneaker waves are waves that run abnormally far up the beach after a long period of smaller waves, and can seemingly come from out of nowhere to pull <a href="https://rumble.com/v2z9ay-beach-goers-run-for-cover-during-freak-hail-storm-in-russia.html" target="_blank">unsuspecting beach-goers</a> into the frigid waters of the Pacific Ocean."
Their unexpected appearance has recently claimed the lives of a father and his toddler son, right in front of their family’s eyes. Experts advise to be careful while at the beaches of Oregon, as sneaker waves can come even from seemingly calm waters.

A Group Of Wild Boars Make A Surprise Appearance In A Corn Field
When you work the field, it is pretty safe to say that nothing can ever surprise you. You know your surroundings, you know what might happen out in the open, so if by any chance you come across, say, a group of wild boars and their young as they emerge from your prized crops and into the woods, you will probably make a cool video out of it, instead of running after the animals.
That is exactly what happened to these farmers in Nova Ves u Svetle, a village in the Havlíčkův Brod District, Vysočina Region of the <a href="https://rumble.com/v31far-cliff-diving-creates-a-splash-in-the-czech-republic.html" target="_blank">Czech Republic</a>. The village has a total population of whooping 467 people, all of which make a living in the field.
With their heavy machinery, these farmers went out in the corn fields to gather the crop on September 16, when they noticed some rustling in the corn. The machines were doing the rounds in the crop and the rustling was moving around the place. But when the time came to take down the last patch of corn, out came a group of some 20 <a href="https://rumble.com/v3keuj-raising-wild-boar-piglets.html" target="_blank">wild boars</a>, which then shot for the nearby woods.
Expert workers as they were, the farmers made sure that not one of the animals was harmed. But it sure looks like a scene from a funny movie!

Pug Enjoys Soaking In The Bubbly Water While Owner Gives Him A Nice Scrub
This pug gets the ultimate scrub down and he absolutely loves it. It is so adorable to hear him make all those funny noises during his afternoon bath. This little pup is enjoying his spa treatment as his owner is brushing his fur and thoroughly cleaning his entire body. <a href="https://rumble.com/v31kpx-bubble-bath.html" target="_blank">Does your dog enjoy having a bath</a>?
Usually dog owners experience their dog frantically running and rolling around right after bath time. The excitement our dogs get when they’re finally free of the bath results in temporary insanity when they’re let loose. It’s usually pretty endearing to see the dog experience such boundless joy.
Most dogs don’t like taking a bath, and go crazy afterwards because they’re relieved that it’s over. However, that is not the case with this <a href="https://rumble.com/v361vi-pug-love.html" target="_blank">cute little pug</a> who seems to be enjoying his time in the tub and loves to soak in the bubbly water. He just loves being washed and brushed over and over again.
It is very pleasing to see how this dog enjoys having a nice, long bath and is completely relaxed throughout the entire process, as his owner gives him the best scrub there is. Other dogs would be jealous after watching this video!

Dozen Of Playful Deer Happily Chasing Each Other
An adorable footage has emerged of dozen of playful deer, cheerfully playing on a meadow, chasing each other for joy. Footage was captured on September 4, 2014 in Long Island, NY when a man and his wife spotted the happy deer running around having fun on someone’s front lawn.
If you have ever seen these woodland creatures in the wild, you know how skittish they are. One snap of a tree branch and they’re off like a rocket. Usually deer are timid and avoid human interaction. However, that was not the case with these cheerful deer who were running around and playing on the lawn like little children, not afraid by the human onlookers.
<a href="https://rumble.com/v4190r-unbelievable-dance-off-between-a-young-girl-and-a-deer.html" target="_blank">Deer</a> cannot be hunted here and predators are few, which is why they have become accustomed to the humans who live in this area and will often wander near or watch them curiously from a short distance. This has gone on for generations and the deer know little fear of humans. Because this area is a protected sanctuary, the interaction with humans poses no threat.
If you sit quietly for long enough, you are likely to see deer wander past as they graze and explore. Crunching on a snack can make them even more bold. Apparently, this herd of playful deer dared to explore someone’s yard and did not mind the human movement. Incredible!
Watch as they run, hop and chase each other in the green wonderland. Over a dozen <a href="https://rumble.com/v3xtzb-deer-gets-frisky-with-lawn-ornament-deer.html" target="_blank">deer can be seen enjoying themselves and exploring the surroundings</a>, they are thought to be chasing each other around. Judging by their casual run, they feel safe and comfortable in this area.
Deer are one of the most beautiful and gentle animals on earth and spending time sitting quietly observing their being, sharing the silence with these graceful creatures is truly one unforgettable experience.

Giant Gator Walks Across Florida Golf Course Like On Runway
While preparing to chip their golf ball on to the green, a game of golf was interrupted by an alligator, casually strolling across the course. Footage shows two men filming the rude alligator who decided to show up uninvited and break up their party. The man who is filming the video can be heard saying ‘it is at least 15 feet long’ while slowly following his every move on the course. Check out this monster gator!
Nothing like a few good swings with the golf club to get your day started. But that's not what got the man behind the camera, Charles A Helms, excited. While enjoying a round of golf, Charles and his friend were being flagged down by other golfers who were pointing to this <a href="https://rumble.com/v34n7m-alligator-walks-across-golf-course-with-huge-fish.html" target="_blank">giant alligator</a> on the third fairway. In this clip, filmed on May 25, 2016 in Palmetto, Florida, USA we see one gator intruder who breaks up the game of golf for two unfortunate men!
Everyone knows that alligators are dangerous, there are several different videos online to show how vicious their bite is. That is why everyone just let this monster of a reptile do its thing, flaunting its fashion on the <a href="https://rumble.com/v38ofp-gator-slowly-stalks-two-cranes-across-florida-golf-course.html" target="_blank">golf course</a> like walking down the runway, until it was a safe distance away, and golfers could finally continue their game.
The crazy thing was the sheer size of this beast. Alligators aren't obviously little guys, but no one would generally think that they are this big. It's crazy!
If you are ever in close quarters with an alligator, make sure not to panic, and slowly get out. Do not interact with these guys and don’t make any contact. The people in this video did the correct thing, they observed from a distance and didn’t disturb the monstrous creature. But oh my, that was a massive gator this is!

Attempted Drift Goes Terribly Wrong As Mustang Crashes At Lamborghini Dealership
If you are a fan of muscle cars, then you probably shouldn’t be watching this video, as it can be pretty painful to watch. Mustang’s are probably the most beloved of all muscle cars out there and it can be pretty safe to say that it takes a real man to hold the reins of that beast. This driver must have felt as such when he decided, not only to attempt to drift on a wet road, but convince a friend to record him as he attempts and fails to do so.
Everyone and their grandmas know how dangerous it is to drive carelessly on a wet road while it is raining, not to mention actually attempting to perform a crazy stunt as drifting. Viewers of the original video commented their facepalm reactions, asking why didn’t the guys talk their friend out of this insane idea, rather than just recording him.
Even if the stunt had been staged for the sake of viral fame, it is still pretty stupid. The Mustang pulls out of a parking lot and starts driving towards the exit, when he steps on the gas, wanting to drift, but loses control on the traction-less tarmac and swerves, right into the fence of the Lamborghini dealership next door. That guy shouldn’t be allowed to even think about touching a steering wheel, let alone actually be allowed to drive.
Just give him the Darwin Award already.

Ants Commemorate A Bee By Laying Flower Petals Around Its Body
"This video was taken outside of my work in Stillwater. There was a dead bumblebee and the ants were bringing flower petals to lay around him. It looked like some sort of bee funeral." - says the video maker. The video above shows a truly bizarre footage of <a href="https://rumble.com/v2zvyb-ants-carring-a-piece-of-bread.html" target="_blank">ants carrying</a> flower petals and laying them around the body of a dead bumblebee. We are sure that this sight has never been witnessed by anyone before and scientists must be perplexed by such an odd insect behavior. It looks like the ants are having a funeral for the bumblebee.
We aren’t the only ones: animals feel grief too. Many animals will fall silent to mourn or remember the life of one of their own. Animals that have funerals take it one step further and seem to make “rituals” out of their grieving. Call it anthropomorphism if you want, but either way, watching these animals mourn hits close to home. Funerals, of course, are complex behavior; something only really seen in humans and a few select other mammals, like elephants, chimpanzees and magpies To attribute that explanation to ant behavior is highly speculative, to say the least.
What weird 'ritual' is this? It looks like something out of a sad fairy tale. Tiny ants are pulling over petals, making a pile, and on top rests a dead bumblebee. The video is no doubt cool and unusual, but are we watching a never-before-observed ant funeral ritual? Probably not.
So far, experts haven’t come up with a unanimous explanation about what this behavior could possibly be. One theory might be the fact that both <a href="https://rumble.com/v4pqzd-what-is-happening-to-bees.html" target="_blank">bees</a> and ants release a compound called oleic acid when they die. The acid allows these social insects to identify when one of their brethren has passed away, so that the body can be dealt with. Bees have a habit of throwing out the bodies of their dead from the hive, but ants tend to transport their deceased to a midden heap.
So here, we can make an assumption that the ants have stumbled upon the body of a dead bee while transporting flower petals and they might thought it was a dead ant so they put the petals around its body. This assumption doesn’t necessarily have to be true, it is just one solution to the answer what has gotten in these ants.
However, we can offer another more believable theory that maybe the bee just happened to die right on top of one of the ants' nest entrances, it is sitting on top of the entrance and that is why there is a number of petals sitting around the bee. Or the simplest explanation might be a human’s setup - it could also just be humans being humans. Someone actually put the bee there thinking this might happen, creating this lovely image. Either way, rest in peace little bee. Whatever the explanation, it's an intriguing video, and one that we probably won't ever have a definitive answer for so long as the behavior is never witnessed again.

Off Duty Lifeguard Saves Two Beachgoers While Giving An Interview
Kip, a photographer who needed a good interview to help promote a company sponsored beach clean-up for Earth Day, set up an interview with a friend and local lifeguard, Tim Capra. He asked him to bring his family and some boards to make the interview a little more appealing.
Tim and Kip went to South Beach in Vero to shoot an interview about litter on the beach and started walking to their interview spot and picked up trash on their way. The interview started after 7:00 pm after working hours, where there is not a single <a href="https://rumble.com/v30ok1-robotic-lifeguard.html" target="_blank">lifeguard on duty</a>.
In the middle of the interview, Tim began to focus on a specific spot in the currents and paused during his response to the question. Then, he walks off camera and spots the people he saw in the water who were caught in a rip current. Tim then immediately walked down the beach to grab one of his boards, he brought for an interview prop, and began to paddle out to save a young man and his father from drowning. Tim got them on his board and back to shore!
This man is our hero. Nowadays, we rarely see men who are completely dedicated to their job even when they are off duty! The best thing that we like about Tim is that he didn't try to act like a hero, but instead he was so focused on his job that he didn't mind how he will look like on the interview! Faith in humanity is restored!
He casually walked back to his family, dries off, and finishes the interview, like a <a href="https://rumble.com/v3fmym-hero-dad.html" target="_blank">classic hero</a>. The world needs more people like Tim indeed!

Silly Cat Has A Really Funny Way Of Telling Her Owner She's Tired
Let’s be real, cats are weird. Sure, they are the lovely, fluffy balls of sass that we adore, but deep inside, our feline furbabies are probably just a robot run by a bunch of minuscule aliens. How else would you explain their erratic behavior and constant mood changes?
Besides being weird little buggers, cats are also natural-born manipulators. Their innate ability to observe and learn keeps them safe, but also with well-fed tummies, ultimately making them the ruler of their house. Do you think it is your home? Think again!
If a cat figures out that some specific behavior will make her owner go “aww” and bend to her every will and whim, she will stop at nothing to achieve it, even if that means she will look like a fool. Take this cat, for example.
According to her owner, this <a href="https://rumble.com/v3u4zj-luna-and-cactus.html" target="_blank">silly cat</a> is able to tell him she’s tired by sitting up on her back legs and begging with her front paws. The cat looks ridiculous, but it gets her what she wants, and that is to be taken to her bed like a queen and probably covered with a warm, fluffy blanket to stay nice and cozy.
No cat in the history of cats was born with this knowledge. She looks the human dead in the eye and does this weird gesture over and over until he can no longer watch his pet behave like a looney toon. Watch and learn folks, this is how you get your way!
There aren’t enough words in the vocabulary to describe a cat. On the one hand, they are adorable balls of fluff, able to express incredible amounts of love from such tiny creatures. But, on the other hand, they can be manipulative, little creatures that will do everything to do things their way! Just like this small fluff ball, when she is tired she will find a way to express that and tell you that she wants to sleep! So adorable!
Speaking of silly cats, take a look at this sweet yet <a href="https://rumble.com/v4lgy3-cat-enjoys-strawberry.html" target="_blank">silly cat that really likes to munch on some juicy strawberries</a> and it’s beyond adorable!
Just look at how the face of this cat changes when she voraciously eats the strawberry: notice her look- big eyes, ears forward, tail up - the look of the curious feline. It is quite cute how she ravenously licks this delicious berry from the owner’s hand.

Woman Feeds Bunch Of Raccoons Under Her Porch
Disney might want you to think that raccoons are just cute little helpers that braid your hair and bring you stuff, but in reality, these masked bandits can be the nuisance you never knew you didn’t need in your life. They are mostly gatherers, rummaging through the wilderness for food, but with the ever-growing human population, these clever tricksters know that there will always be food in the trash bin.
When this family in Gelendzhik, Russia first heard strange noises coming from under their front door deck, they were probably scared out of their minds to check out what it is. All that clawing and those awful screeches… But in the truest Russian way, they were relieved to find out it is just a pack of <a href="https://rumble.com/v3cber-nursery-of-raccoons-enjoy-a-gourmet-feast-fit-for-a-king.html?mref=6zof&mrefc=25" target="_blank">hungry raccoons</a>! What a relief.
There is, however, one thing that you should always have in mind when considering feeding wild animals near your house. If wild raccoons are frequent guests in your backyard, feeding them can be a highly rewarding experience. Watching them munch on the feast you serve can be tireless entertainment, to witness their antics. But since they can be a nuisance, you should take proper precautions as well.
By all means, do not let them associate your own house with the food they receive. You might get tempted to leave food out on your porch or in front of your door. Just remember that <a href="https://rumble.com/v2z7k0-raccoon-victory-dance.html?mref=6zof&mrefc=22" target="_blank">raccoons</a> are adventurous animals, some more than other individuals and they might see this as an invitation to discover what other treats your house might offer!
Raccoons are intelligent creatures with an incredible memory and a high IQ. They are magnificent students. Research has demonstrated that in addition to the fact that they are ready to take care of issues that they can recollect the arrangement and use it again years after the fact.
This causes issues in urban zones as they use their critical thinking capacities to get through locks and hooks into garbage containers and even houses looking for food.
Raccoons are really interesting creatures with a trademark white face and differentiating dark hide around the eyes. Their grey coats, made for the most part out of thick underfur, provide protection against the chilly climate. Known for their knowledge and the great memory, raccoons can solve puzzles.
They don't have opposable thumbs, yet that doesn't stop them from utilizing their paws and ground-breaking hooks to open things, which is the place their underhanded notoriety comes from. They have been known to twist open of variety of handles and doorknobs and frequently break into garbage canisters.
However, no matter how troubled they can be, it's hard to get mad at such a cute animal! No wonder Pocahontas had a raccoon for a best friend! Just look at those adorable little paws! But keep on mind that even though they are cute and smart also funny, raccoons can't be pets as they can grow to be aggressive and also in some states is illegal to keep a raccoon as a pet!
