When thinking of the 70s, it’s simply impossible not to recall those youthful days when dancing was all we needed, and all we did. It really was a thrilling time to be alive in America. Among the disco music, and the long hair trends, there was the leather jacket and the smoking hot Danny Zuko, who was every girl’s fantasy.
The movie “Grease” remains one of the symbols of that time. It tells the love story of Danny and Sandy, who met during the summer of 1958, but Sandy had to return to Australia. They said goodbye with a promise to see each other again.
One day, during a football game, the Pink Ladies surprised Danny with a new student, his girlfriend Sandy.

Wow, it was a scene many of us will never forget. Two lovebirds standing in front of each other. And just when we thought it was the most romantic thing ever, Danny’s friends, The T-Birds make fun of him for being in love, which turns him into ‘impossible to get’ with ‘too cool for you’ attitude.
Believe it or not, that’s when we started hating all men, because what Danny and Sandy had, was something we all wished to experience. Their impact on the youth of that time was so huge that many of them copied the dancing moves from the movie. The singing and dancing featured in “Grease”, along with the mooning mishap, the car races, the prom, were part of the period that helped shape the American culture.

What added to the amazing dancing choreography of the movie was a move known as ‘the four corners’ which was originally introduced by John Travolta, who played the role of handsome Danny Zuko. The choreographer believed the scene of Sandy, played by Olivia Newton-John, hopping off the fun house at the school carnival to join Danny on the ground, should have been accompanied by unique motion, and that’s how it became the most famous dance move of the 70s.
Now, 40 years after Grease first premiered, John appeared on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon who told John how his nephew and niece enjoy the choreography even after so much time.

What happened next is sort of amazing. We got to see the famous move performed by Travolta himself. The host even joined John on the stage and it’s exciting to watch.
The audience, especially the ladies, went crazy when the two started moving their hips on “You’re the One That I Want.”

Take a look at the interview and the dancing in the video. If you enjoy it, share it with friends.
The father-son hunting trip of the teenage boy named Ryle Gordon and his stepdad Chris Trumbich turned into a hunt of life and death the two will never forget. Both Ryle and Chris were looking forward to spending time together and hunting deer, but never could they imagine that it will turn into a different kind of pursuit.
As they were walking through the forest they stumbled upon something chilling. The word HELP was written on the ground, in the mud. They were completely puzzled and had no idea who might have been in trouble. The problem was that they were already deep in the woods and whoever needed help was probably lost somewhere in the wide area. They couldn’t assume when have the person, or the people, left the message, and wondered whether it was too late to help the lost.
YouTube
Determined to figure out what was going on, they started making guesses. Chris thought it might have been a means of communication between the hunters, but something was telling them that it was a serious matter. Ryle though the message was creepy and took a photo of it using his phone.
But soon after, they recalled how they saw some members of a rescue crew who were looking for a 19-year-old girl who got lost two days prior. Katie Ogle was from Hayden, Idaho, and it was very probable that she was the one who left the message in the mud.

The stepdad and the son knew they had to act fast, because every minute counted, so they rushed down the mountain in order to alert the authorities of what they witnessed. The rescue crew was about to finis the search for the day, but Ryle and Chris got just on time to show them the picture they’ve taken. It was a crucial lead that could save the girl’s life.
On the day she disappeared, Katie wasn’t wearing any shoes, and the prognosis weren’t bright because the weather during the time she was lost was pretty bad and the girl’s cognitive ability was that of an 11-year-old. Everyone was suspicious that the search would result with a happy ending, but still, everyone hoped for the best.
YouTube
The team quickly went to the place where the word HELP was written in hopes of finding Katie alive. As soon as they arrived, one of the crew members yelled “hello” and a voice from behind the hill could be heard back. Everyone was relieved when they found Katie lying in a sleeping bag. Ryle told KFBB that the teenager seemed very frightened:
“She looked very scared when she came out, like she was scared she was going to get in trouble like we were going to yell at her for being in the cabin. Katie, if you’re watching this, we’re just happy you’re alive.”
The interesting thing was that Ryle and Chris helped save Katie’s life twice that day, because the bag she was sleeping in was actually theirs. They believe she took it from their family cabin which Chris keeps unlocked in case any lost hunters need shelter or food. They were beyond happy to take part in the rescue of the poor girl. Fortunately, they got a happy ending.
Take a look at the video of the amazing rescue below.
Some people have the power to touch our hearts so deeply that what they do never fades from our memory. The 16-year-old Raffi Arto’s voice resembles that of the legend Elvis Presley so much that it gives us chills. During his latest performance on the French The Voice, both the audience and judges were hooked.
He performed a rendition of the hit song “Can’t Help Falling In Love” and according to many, it is one of the most memorable we’ve ever heard. Raffi’s voice was described as soft as feather, yet so powerful.
YouTube
This prodigy has been into music ever since he was very little. He started bonding with the piano at the age of six, and it became his ‘best friend’ in the years to come.
When one of the judges asked Raffi how much time he spends playing the piano he said:
“I don’t count anymore! When I started playing the piano, I practiced for two or three hours a day. Today I spend another good hour. But I have other passions, like football and boxing… Well, I put the sport aside for The Voice because this adventure will be short, and I’m trying to make the most of it.”
Even though music comes to him naturally, he doesn’t let his talent slip through his fingers and makes sure he practices both playing the instrument and singing. He nurtures his vocal skills and enjoys performing, but this was the first time in his life to be in front of that large group of people listening to him. In an interview for the French magazine Le Parisien, he admits it’s not easy to perform knowing millions of people are watching him at home on TV.
He also admits that he suffers from stage fright whenever he is about to take the stage.
“When we are in front of millions of people, it is not easy.”
YouTube
During the Elvis’ song he looked as though he had been performing for many years. A true professional who wowed everyone around.
The talented teen hit every note – even the oh-so-difficult wavering Elvis ones – and looked more than happy doing so. Clearly, he’s a natural performer!
At the end of the performance the crowd treated him to a rousing round of applause and with standing ovations.
We can’t wait to see what he has to show us next. But we are certain he will make it far.
YouTube
It’s an incredibly moving performance and you won’t want to miss it!
Being pulled over by the police is something we all want to avoid by any means. The moment we see the red and blue signals in the mirror, we immediately know we have to come up with a bunch of excuses of why we needed to drive so fast, how come that we forgot our licence and registration at home, or why we crossed the red light.
But, while many are given a ticket for these types of offences, it may happen that people be stopped for no reason. At least that’s what happened to a guy named William Jazwinski. The moment he noticed the police car signaling at him to stop, he thought he found himself in trouble, although he was certain he didn’t break any law.
Once he pulled over, he asked the cop whether he was speeding or something, and the answer he got from the man on duty left him stunned. He was so touched that he decided to share the story on Facebook.
William was a war veteran who fought in Iraq and when the cop noticed the symbols from his time in the military, an Army sticker and an American flag, he felt the urge to thank this brave man for his service for the country. Not only William wasn’t in trouble, but he was praised for his courage and dedication by a stranger.

After the officer asked William some questions regarding his service in the military, he revealed a heartbreaking story that William shared on his Facebook page. This is an excerpt:
Officer- where did you serve?
Me- i went to Iraq. Did a 15 monther. Out of Ft Benning.
Officer- well alright. My son went to Iraq. He didn’t make it home.
Me- man, I’m so sorry to hear that. I just finished a ptsd program.
Officer- i see you have a flag in the truck. The one we got for him! Well its at the house. Can i ask a question?
Me- sure.
Officer- do you mind stepping out and receiving a hug. You remind me of my son. I pulled you over. I thought you were him. I still don’t believe it most days hes gone.
William was more than happy to give this bereaved father a hug like the one he used to get from his son.
With tears in both our eyes i got out and hugged that man. I’m talking about for a minute or two crying. Down to our knees crying. I needed that.
To all the family and friends of soldiers, fighting or done fighting, God bless you. Your peace and your hearts. Its so hard without them, i know. This road is a tremendous one. Love to all.
Our hearts break for the loss of the officer who found a consolation in the hug of William who reminded him of his loving son. Knowing what military men risk for the well-being of the country, makes them real life heroes in our eyes. We do hope the officer will learn how to live with his grief which is like no other.
If you have the chance to send a thank you message to those in the military, what would you say? Please share it with us in the comments section.
Every life is worth saving, even when it comes from the smallest egg you have ever seen.
When the guy who runs the YouTube channel A Chick Called Albert was alerted of something that had fallen in the neighbor’s backyard, he could never assume he will come across something so unusual. Two extremely tiny eggs in a nest. Once he took them in his hands he though it would be nice if he take them home and try to nurture them, so they eventually hatch.
To be honest, he didn’t really think this would work out, but he still decided to give it a go.
The experienced man incubated the eggs and made sure he checks on them quite often. He was wondering if by any chance, a bird is hatched, how would he take care of it. Looking at the eggs, it was obvious the birds would be extremely tiny as well.
On the fourth day, the man used a light to check for a life, and he was stunned to see an embryo in one of the eggs. A new life was developing right in front of his eyes, and he was eager to see what the bird would look like.
And, there it was, the day when the egg finally hatched. He was satisfied, knowing he was the one who made it happen.
At first, he was totally confused and had no idea what and how to feed this little baby. And that’s when he got it. He recalls that for the first time in his life he said to himself, “Thank God the roses have lice” and quickly rushed to the garden to take some. The bird seemed to enjoy the meal, and it was so hungry that it asked for food every ten minutes.
He then fed it mosquitoes and other insects, and the tiny bird started growing feathers and grew stronger with every passing day.
The time for it to be released was coming closer, and we are so happy it was given a chance to live.
Check the video below to see how the bird looks like now. Make sure you share this lovely story with your family and friends. You may even want to subscribe to the YouTube channel for more cute and amazing animal stories.
The bond between twins is like no other. There are many documentaries and research that claim twins have the power to feel each other’s pain, as well as happiness. Many times, their relationship is endowed with extraordinary, telepathic, qualities.
Having a twin means having a friend for life. You can always have someone to rely on, even during the toughest of times. But what’s more, you will also have someone to laugh together with, such as these two adorable babies who melted our hearts.
The only thing they need in order to have a good laugh is to look at each other, and that’s it. Their laughter is so loud and contagious that it makes us join in. Their parents must be really happy to have such joyful children.
It’s so entertaining how they simply can’t stop the laughter while tapping on the floor with their tiny hands. Oh boy, these two know how to have fun.
Take a look at the video below and enjoy the giggle-fest.
The name of Doria Ragland became well known to all of us since her daughter Meghan became a Duchess and got married to the most eligible bachelor of Britain at that time, Prince Harry.
A source close to the Buckingham Palace told Express that Her Majesty The Queen has invited Doria to attend this years Christmas celebration at the Sangringham country estate, Norfolk, along with the rest of the royal family. This wouldn’t be awkward if we know that the rest of the in-laws, Kate’s parents, haven’t been invited.
Reportedly, 62-year-old Doria who works as a social worker for the Didi Hirsch Mental Health Services clinic in LA, has started preparing for her stay in England.
The unnamed royal source believes that the invite hasn’t been extended to Kate Middleton’s family but to Meghan’s only because it’s a practical gesture for the family’s only foreign-born and raised member. The source says, “It’s a mark of the Queen’s respect for Meghan and an acknowledgment that she doesn’t have any other relations in this country – unlike Kate who has the support of a very close family.”
While we believe that this makes sense, we hope there will be no hard feelings involved and that this won’t cause tension between the Queen and Prince William. Although the Middletons have attended Christmas church services with the royal family, they haven’t spent a holiday in the palace.
We believe that this invite is a nice gesture because Meghan’s mother lives in another country and the two don’t get to spend time together, so this will be a perfect chance for the family to get closer.

If you haven’t heard of the condition called “laryngospasm” let us tell you that it’s a sudden spasm of the vocal cords which prevents the person affected to speak or breath properly. Now, if you think this is something frightening, you are right.
But a group of four certified registered nurse anesthetists though it would be fun if they perform medically-themed parody songs under the funny-sounding name of “Laryngospasm”, and it might be the best thing you’ve seen and heard so far.
The founder of the group is anesthetist Gary Cozine who finds inspiration for the hilarious music they perform in their everyday life as medical staff. They tried to replace the fear related to their group’s name with laughter, and they did just the right thing.
These cool guys tell us that no matter how serious and important their job is, it doesn’t mean they can’t some fun along the way.
Their latest performance is taking the Internet by storm.
YouTube
The group was formed way back, while the members were studying for their nursing degrees. They performed for the first time in front of attendees at the student’s Christmas party at the Minneapolis School of Anesthesia ten years ago.
Wanting to relieve the stress of the exams, the talented medical musicians sang a parody of Neil Sedaka’s popular song ‘Breaking Up Is Hard To Do’ which they renamed into ‘Waking Up Is Hard To Do.’ Not only they sang perfectly, but they also rocked their outfits consisting of their scrubs and microphones.
The audience was cheering in laughter and everyone was amazed by the hilarious performance.
YouTube
Now, we are happy to announce that the group is singing the song again, and even shots an official video for it. Again, dressed in their working outfits, in an operating theater they borrowed, The Laryngospasms give us a once in a lifetime experience. They are definitely the best performers of parody songs. You may even check their YouTube channel for more amazing videos.
