ANYONE got Stingose?
Flight attendants onboard a
plane flying across Russia had to
become allergy specialists and
pest disposal experts, after a
smuggled load of bees escaped
mid-flight.
The swarm of bees escaped
their cardboard box carry-on
during the tedious ten hour flight
from Blagoveshchensk (near
China) to Moscow.
It is unknown if any passengers
suffered any severe reactions to
stings, however the hosties did
manage to trap the majority of
the swarm in a business-class
wardrobe.
The hosties then sealed the
bees in using sticky tape.
AN Australian traveller in the USA
is facing more than just indigestion
after a sword swallowing trick left
him on the wrong side of the law
in New York.
Chayne Hultgren suffered an
unpleasant evening handcuffed in
a NYC prison cell, after being
arrested during a sword
swallowing street performance
for “disorderly conduct”.
Hultgren, no stranger to dangerholding
the world record for
sword swallowing with 27 swords
- braved his imprisonment
without a bed or food, and was
released back to his adoring
public the next day.
THE world’s oldest person has
turned 115.
Besse Cooper, who lives in the
town of Monroe, Georgia in the
USA, reportedly enjoyed “two
small slivers” of birthday cake as
she celebrated at her nursing
home with relatives and friends.
Cooper was born in 1896 and
has been alone for a long time,
with her husband Luther dying
almost 50 years ago, in 1963
when she was a sprightly 67.
But she’s well loved by her four
children, 12 grandchildren as well
as scores of great grandchildren
and even great-great
grandchildren.
