TELL ME SOMETHING GOOD: Pilot crashes plane, miraculously gets saved thanks to nearby lifeguard competition
This is like something out of modern day Baywatch.
You’ve seen them before. Those small planes pulling a banner or sign to advertise something. Usually flying over a beach or crowded area so they can get the most eyeballs on it. I’ve always thought that it’s surprising there aren’t more accidents with them because of how dangerous it looks to fly with something hanging off your plane.
Well, it happened. A banner plane crashed out in California last Friday. Lucky for the pilot it was right near a local lifeguard competition which just happened to be happening on the beach he was flying near. Once they saw the plane go down a bunch of the lifeguards sprung into action and managed to save the pilot’s life.
Crazy!

MUNDANE MYSTERIES: Does your height really change during the day?
You may have heard this before, but it’s true. Yes. You’re taller in the morning than at night. The reason for this is because over the course of the day the cartilage in your body compresses down making you slightly bit shorter.
I feel like if that’s the case they should play all basketball games at like 7am.
