23-Year-Old Man Just Became The World’s Youngest Grandpa Thanks To Wild Set Of Circumstances

In life, family always comes first. You only get one, so when there’s a problem that involves their well-being, you do anything to help. This was particularly true for one young man in Australia. Tommy Connolly grew up with a lot of friends in school and was always a star athlete. However, that all came to an abrupt stop when he received an alarming message via social media from one of his cousins… This 23-year-old college student had the whole world at his fingertips, along with a beautiful girlfriend to share it with. Unfortunately, though, not everything is built to last. Tommy was attending school at the University of Sunshine Coast in Queensland and studying to become a real estate agent. He was already working part-time at a local office, while he was chasing his passion a...

Two snakes got in a fight and crashed through someone’s ceiling

Two snakes engaged in a wrestling match crashed through the ceiling of a home in Brisbane, Australia, like a scene from some sort of bizarre action/horror film. The snakes were a pair of male coastal carpet pythons, a nonvenomous species who kill their prey by constriction. Snake catchers who arrived on the scene felt like they were most likely fighting over the right to mate with a female snake who was probably nearby. The pair somehow made their way into the home—where their combined weight was too much for a vent in one of the, luckily unoccupied, bedrooms. The homeowners were kind enough to let the snake catchers capture some video of the battling reptiles before they were removed from the premises. “We have our first pair of combat males for the season,” says the woman ...

9-Yr-Old Violin Prodigy Wows Crowd, Then Little Brother Crashes The Interview!

Jude Owens-Fleetwood’s first violin was so small, it’s something you’d picture finding in a dollhouse. He’s gone on to conquer bigger and better violins over the years, which he and his equally gifted younger brother, Lewis, showed off during their appearance last summer on Little Big Shots Australia. You know, just a nice visual in case you needed an idea of how incredibly young they were when they started out. Host Shane Jacobson actually looked pretty ridiculous holding that little bitty instrument… YouTube You can tell by the picture that Jude and Lewis are pretty young, but exactly how young, you ask? At the time of the taping, Lewis was just five years old, and Jude was really getting up there in years, nearly into the double digits. But this TV appearance was originally on...

Son Was Falling Towards Death Off Balcony But Dad’s Superhuman Reaction Stuns Everyone.

Brad Lewis literally took the fall for his son. Earlier this month, they were playing on the balcony at a friend’s house in Sydney, Australia, and his son, Oscar, playfully shot him with a Nerf gun. But the plastic bullets whizzed past him and flew over the balcony, and when the young boy raced to catch them, he lost his balance and started to fall. GoFundMe Oscar (above, left) would’ve gone straight over the first-floor railing, but thankfully, Brad grabbed him just in the nick of time. Their combined weight, however, caused Oscar to lose his own footing, and father and son tumbled helplessly to the concrete driveway below. As they fell, family friend Annie Kendall, says, Brad curled his body around his son’s and took the brunt of the impact. His friend, Beau Worthington, rushed to hi...

An Adorable Koala Heading For A New Zoo Got Its Own Seat On An Airplane

Who you sit near on an airplane is luck of the draw, but how would you feel if you found out you were going to be neighboring a koala? Last week, an Australian koala boarded a Eurowings flight from Dusseldorf, Germany to Edinburgh, Scotland. Koalas are highly strung animals, so this bear got VIP treatment with a row of seats to himself inside the cabin. VIP Treatment Tanami is a 19-month-old Queensland koala who was heading to his new home, RZSS Edinburgh Zoo. Darren McGarry, Edinburgh Zoo’s head of Living Collections, said in a statement,”Koalas are very sensitive animals, so special care needs to be taken when transporting them. They travel in the plane’s cabin and not in the hold so keepers can easily make sure everything’s okay during the flight.” Tanami is joining Edinburgh Zoo as pa...
