Man Walking In The Woods Captures Forest Floor “Breathing” In Incredible Footage

By

-

A Nova Scotia man out for a walk caught a strange phenomena in the forest near the ocean’s edge. Thankfully, he pulled out his camera to record it. In the video, Brian Nuttall captures the forest floor, rising and falling as if “breathing”. “As I entered a patch of trees spared from clear cutting, I noticed the ground moving,” he says of the incident, which has since gone viral.

After posting the video, many commented that what appears as “breathing” is actually the root systems under the trees is loose and shifting. The natural phenomenon is called soil liquefaction. The solidness of the soil is reduced because of water saturation (and possibly air), which causes the visual effect where it appears that the soil is moving.

The scientific explanation doesn’t make it any less dramatic to watch, as you’ll see for yourself in the video below!

Teacher Shares Powerful Lesson For Parents Buying School Supplies

Leland Michael, a public school teacher from Iowa, was in the Walmart school section when two sets of parents stopped him to complain about the number of supplies they had to purchase for their kids. After completing his shopping, he walked to the register where another man also had something to say to the teacher.

But this time things ‘took a very different turn’ – and what Leland observed has since gone viral for all of the right reasons…

As soon as Leland got home that day, he took to Facebook to share what happened inside that Walmart and how he was inspired by one person in particular.

He wrote:

“I was feeling pretty jaded this morning as two different sets of parents at Walmart stopped me in the school supplies aisle to complain about how much they had to get their kids this year.

‘This is just ridiculous. I don’t know how these teachers think we are supposed to get all this stuff.’

As they complained, they seemed to be oblivious to the fact that my cart was filled with a class set of all the supplies they were buying–which should have been a pretty clear indication that I was one of those greedy teachers they were complaining about.”

“While I was checking out, though, things took a very different turn. I noticed the man in front of me in the checkout lane was buying school supplies for his daughter.

As he went to leave, he said to me, ‘You are a teacher, right? I just want to thank you for everything you do. I see your cart is full with supplies, and I just wanted to help out as much as I can.’

Then he handed me a $25 Wal-Mart gift card, shook my hand, and walked away with his daughter smiling big at me.

While I was extremely moved by the man’s generosity, the part that stuck with me the most was the difference in his message to his daughter compared with the parents who had been complaining earlier.

The kids who heard their parents complaining heard this message: ‘School is not important enough to spend money on it, teachers are not to be trusted and have bad judgement, and learning does not require investment.’

The kid whose dad handed me the gift card heard: ‘School is important enough that we should give more than required to make sure it is successful, teachers should be respected and valued, and learning requires us giving it everything we have.’

If money is tight, and you struggle to buy your child school supplies, I understand. Don’t worry: more than likely your child will have a teacher and a school that makes sure they have the supplies they need to be successful this year. However, as a parent, do your best to send the right message to your child.

The man who gave me the gift card not only made my day, but I also know that his daughter will enter the classroom this year with a very different perspective about her teacher and her education, and that is extremely powerful!”

Since Leland posted his story on Facebook it’s gone viral, being shared more than 400,000 times. In addition, he’s received many heartfelt comments that agree with his powerful message.

People all over the country certainly have strong opinions when it comes to the topic of school supplies. But no matter how much you can afford to provide, we can all agree that education is of paramount importance, which is why we need to be good examples when it comes to it.

Tiny Dancer In Wheelchair Impresses With Ballet Moves

Milam Kiser, 3, from Shelbiana, Kentucky, has the soul of a star.

“The child is a diva,” her mother Amanda told Caters News.

“She loves to dance and absolutely adores music.”

But Milam isn’t your typical 3-year-old. She and her brother Noah were both born with a rare, genetic condition called osteogenesis imperfecta type III.

When a person has this condition, their bones are very fragile and vulnerable to breaks. It can often be diagnosed in the newborn period when a baby gets fractures just from being held and handled. Although this vulnerability to fractures is one of the main symptoms, according to Rare Diseases, other signs of the disorder include short stature, dental problems, macrocephaly (unusually large head), and hearing loss. Many of those afflicted are not able to walk without assistance.

“The change is caused by a gene mutation which affects bone formation and structure and can cause dwarfism,” Amanda explained.

“Both Noah and Milam are affected; they are tiny.”

“People always ask me if they’re twins even though there are three years between them.”

“She will get fractures very often. Since she was born, she’s had around 60, which have either required casting or splints.”

Despite Milam’s tiny stature, the little girl has big dreams: she is going to be a ballerina.

As a music lover, the toddler spends lots of time on YouTube. “Milam asked me to go to ballet classes because she watches the other girls on YouTube doing it and wants to be like them,” Amanda said.

As can be imagined, her mother was a bit apprehensive about the suggestion. The little girl was confined to a wheelchair and her condition made physical activity risky. Despite her worries, however, she couldn’t say no to her daughter’s dream.

“She said she wanted to be a ballerina, so I called the instructors, explained about her being in a wheelchair and they were all on board.”

In a video recorded by Amanda, you see Milam on the first day of ballet class.

In the opening scene, the little girl shows off her tutu for the camera, bouncing ecstatically on her bed. After about 10 seconds, the scene changes, and then you see Milam in the swing of her class.

The tiny ballerina doesn’t let her wheelchair hold her back, as she points her toes and pirouettes in line with the other girls.

She watches the other students carefully, synchronizing her moves with theirs. “Some of the children were a bit older than her but she really enjoyed herself,” Amanda said. “Usually Milam gets really nervous around the other kids at first, and there may be a few tears, but she really got stuck in.”

“She absolutely loved it.”

Since her first ballet class, Milam has suffered a few falls which have lowered her confidence a bit. “She was so happy when she’d finished the class but she’s really nervous to go back now,” Amanda revealed. Still, this video shows the pure beauty and joy of a little girl finally getting her dream.

P.S. Milam, if you see this, sweetheart— don’t let a few falls keep you down.

Watch her adorable performance below!

America’s No. 1 inspirational fiction writer Karen Kingsbury can conjure up all sorts of stories about miracles and angels watching over us for her amazing novels. But it wasn’t until she personally experienced a breathtaking moment herself that she realized the full impact divine intervention can have on a person. Karen had trekked to New York City to meet with her publisher. Her daughter Kelsey and her hubby Kyle tagged along so they could soak up the sights of the Big Apple.

It was beautiful autumn afternoon and Karen was thrilled that Simon & Schuster would be publishing her latest book and signed on for more. The first thought she had was to call her dad. But her dad had been gone for a while now, having succumbed to a heart attack. Karen fondly remembered the moment when her dad shared how he always thought of his grown kids, his wife and other loved ones whenever he heard the legendary Rod Stewart’s song “Have I Told You Lately.”

Feeling a bit blue despite receiving awesome news about her book, the trio headed to the gorgeous High Line Park. The words to Rod’s song floated through her mind while they walked. This song had played at the strangest times in Karen’s life after her father passed away – that was no coincidence. They attempted to take a selfie when a stranger walking by offered to snap the photo for them. He looked at the picture and said, “That’s lovely.” He handed Karen her camera and said, “God bless you” before walking away. Mere moments later, it dawned on Karen and her daughter who the kind stranger was.

Diver impales a bull shark with a spear gun as it charges to attack him

Spear fisherman Danny Henricks is fortunate enough to have survived the type of underwater experience that proves just how dangerous sea creatures can be – and he even caught it all on video.

Henricks, 35, was fishing off the coast of Australia when a bull shark charged at him at full speed, only to impale himself on Danny’s spear gun.

The hair-raising clip has been video more than three million times (and counting) since Henricks uploaded it last month.

The diver was spending his holiday diving off the coast of north Queensland when he suddenly saw the fierce beast emerge from the depths.

“I was going to go for a deep dive, got halfway down… I seen him [the shark] on edge of the channel deep down,” Henricks told a news outlet.

“He didn’t worry me at all, he didn’t care about me, then he saw me, turned and came towards me half-pace… I sort of stopped in the middle of the water,” he said.

“I thought he was going to come towards me half-pace … I thought he was going to suss me out so I was just going to poke him away to show I wasn’t food. I just wanted him to keep me at a distance.”

Henricks says the underwater animal went full charge within the last five to six meters.

“I lunged forward with the gun a little bit just before he got there but most of it was his force,” he said.

Henricks, an experienced diver and fisherman, said he was shocked by the incident.

“I don’t think it’s really sunk in yet because I don’t really understand what’s happened,” he said in an interview last month. “Some people would say not being there in the first place, which I think I have a right to be there.”

Though the incident knocked his confidence slightly, Henricks says that he will continue to spearfish.

He plans to take a dive buddy from now on.

These tiny printed homes are world-changers

By

If society waits around for governments to solve the most important problems in the world, we’d probably be waiting forever in vain.

That’s why innovators are stepping up to find their own creative solutions.

One of those organizations is a San Francisco based non-profit called New Story. Their goal: “to create a world where no human being lives in survival mode.” They’re going to do that by ending homelessness.

So far, their organization has built 534 homes in Haiti in eight communities for 1,848 people; 190 homes in El Salvador in five of their communities for 790 people; and 59 homes in one Bolivian community for 177 people.

They are currently building in Mexico. But they are still a long ways away from manifesting their vision.

“There are over 100 million people living in slum conditions in what we call survival mode,” Alexandria Lafci, New Story’s cofounder and COO, told Wired. “How can we make a big dent in this instead of just solving incrementally?”

They figured that out while constantly coming up with ways to be more effective efficient. Their answer lied in 3-D printing.

They joined forces with construction technology company ICON print inexpensive 3-D homes.

“We feel it’s our responsibility to challenge traditional methods and work toward ending homelessness. Linear methods will never reach the billion+ people who need safe homes,” Brett Hagler, CEO of New Story, told Business Wire. “By working with ICON and leveraging their 3D printing innovations, we’re able to reach more families with the best possible shelter solutions, exponentially faster.”

Their collaboration produced a 650-square-foot house built in Austin, Texas that cost only $4,000 to make.

The house, which is a prototype, complies with the local housing code and can be built in one day.

It currently takes them eight months to build 100 homes at $6,000 a pop. If all goes right and New Story has its way, residents in the poorest communities of El Salvador, Bolivia, Haiti, and Mexico will have a safe place to call home.

They can very well change the entire world. And the promise of 3-D printing technology to construct homes and buildings is, simply put, incredible.

It will create major advancements in affordability, building performance, sustainability, and customization.

“You could print a house in the shape of a Fibonacci spiral if you wanted to,” Jason Ballard, cofounder of ICON, explains. “It’s just as simple as printing a square.”

The printing machine is called the Vulcan. It’s designed to work in places where electricity and potable water might not be available.

“Conventional construction methods have many baked-in drawbacks and problems that we’ve taken for granted for so long that we forgot how to imagine any alternative,” Ballard explains. “With 3D printing, you not only have a continuous thermal envelope, high thermal mass, and near zero-waste, but you also have speed, a much broader design palette, next-level resiliency, and the possibility of a quantum leap in affordability. This isn’t 10% better, it’s 10 times better.”

New Story hopes to print up a community of homes in El Salvador within 18 months through partnerships with cutting-edge materials and the highest standards for safety, comfort, and resiliency.

The original model of the home was completely printed on a 3-D printer, except for its roof.

The home includes a living room, small office space, bedroom, porch, bathroom and is absolutely adorable. Human workers installed windows, doors, plumbing and electrical systems. It will be used as office space for ICON until the design is perfected, according to Business Insider.

You can take a tour of the home and see it being built in the video below.

Dad Teaches Stranger A Lesson After Making Rude Comment

By

Jessica Jones

-

Brent Gehring’s daughter Emma is only 6-years-old. And despite her young age, she will soon start her seventh round of chemotherapy.

Yes… her seventh round. The chemotherapy is needed to fight a brain tumor.

Most people can’t tell by looking at Emma that she’s sick. But right now her condition makes it difficult for her to get around without a walker. This is why Brent has to sometimes carry her.

Brent knew that carrying around a 6-year-old might not be easy. He knew that watching his little girl and his wife go through such a trying experience wouldn’t be easy either.

What he didn’t expect was for people on the streets to pass judgment on his family instead of minding their own business.

But it did happen when he and his family went out to dinner one night and he shared the story on Facebook which ended up going viral.

“My daughter and I were leaving dinner the other night at Union Oyster House in Boston, MA. A dinner donated to us by an amazing business and friend that has been in our ‘family’ for years,” he explained. “When I crossed the street carrying her, she can’t walk without the use of her walker. A man yelled at me from 30’ away: ‘What the F*+k?’ He yelled. ‘Make her walk. That’s what is wrong with kids today.’”

Ahh, the age-old “that’s what’s wrong with kids today” bit. We hear angry bitter adults making the same tired argument decade after decade.

The same adults who fail to accept that they are the generation responsible for the raising the very same kids they are complaining about.

Brent was pretty pissed. Not only is this guy cursing and him and his daughter, he is judging his parenting style which is none of his damn business. At this point, Brent had to decide whether to sink down to this guy’s level and beat the crap at him, scream in his face, or teach him a valuable lesson. He chose the latter.

“I had a choice to make at that time. Can I make myself feel better by screaming at him or can I teach him something about life? I won’t lie to you and tell you that it was an easy choice but I got inches from his face, with my daughter in my arms, and quietly asked him if he was referring to my daughter. ‘Hell yes’ he said,” Brent explains in his post.

Let’s just say this guy ended up getting his ass kicked. Not physically, but by the Universe teaching him a lesson he sorely needed to learn.

This is what Brent told the man:

“My daughter has been carrying my faith and my strength for the past 5 years since she was diagnosed with a brain tumor. She can’t walk but I am happy to carry her because of all the amazing things she has taught me through the years. So I would advise you not address my daughter in any way other than respectful,” he said.

The two ended up having a good talk that ended with them both crying. I bet that guy didn’t feel so tough hysterically crying in a public parking lot.

“This story is only important if it serves as a reminder that you don’t always know the whole story so don’t judge others,” Brent said.

But Brent says he learned a lesson that day too. He said the situation served as a reminder that “good can come from any situation.”

“This post doesn’t come looking for pity for Emma or my family. What I am asking is for a change in today’s world… a change in the way we think. The world is what we as people make it. We have the power to make days better or worse for others. I choose to attempt to make lives better,” he said.

We’ll bet that Emma learned a great lesson that day too from the wonderful example her father made for her.

Little Boy Shows Up At Man’s Door When His Dad’s Deployed With Request Man Can’t Refuse

No one can replace a parent. But what would you do if you couldn’t see one of your parents for a year or more?

This can be especially hard on young children. They look to their parents for guidance. They look to them as role models and teachers.

One little boy was missing his dad so much he found a way to fill the void.

Brian Kelly is just a little kid. His dad is in the Air Force, and he has been deployed to Syria. The boy and his mom stayed behind, but they both miss Brian’s Dad dearly.

“When Dan [Brian’s dad] gets back, Brian’s going to cry and run to him with open arms,”

He is fortunate to have warm, friendly neighbors, and he has turned to them for help in his hour of need.

Molly and Dean Cravens are the best neighbors a boy could ask for. One day Dean was outside working, he had come in to cool off when suddenly the doorbell rang, and the man saw Brian standing on the porch.

With his head down and very little eye contact he asked if he could help with the yard work. This is what he used to do with his dad. The neighbor happily agreed.

Now Brian shows up to the neighbor’s house every day to do “dad stuff.”

Brian helps Dean clean up the yard and is always ready to help Dean. This bonding time with Mr Cravens has helped Brian immensely.

The two are a perfect fit, because Dean has 3 daughters but no sons. He loves getting the chance to do “dad activities” with a boy.

“This is our little neighbor,” she wrote. “His dad is deployed in Syria and every day he comes to the door asking to work with our dad. Appreciate today.” Molly recently posted on twitter.

What would you do if this happened to you? Would you step in for a soldier that is protecting and serving your country, or would you turn him away?

Photographer Pictures Father With Tears After Watching Newborn Only He Claims “That’s Not Why I Was Crying”

A standout amongst the most wonderful minutes in life is the point at which you respect your tyke into the world. A surge an of feelings hit – depletion from the birthing procedure, energy about having somewhat one to look after and freeze with regards to being accountable for another life for whatever remains of your own.

This extraordinary blend of feelings more often than not makes unseasoned parents shed a couple of tears as they hold their infant – however when this new dad started to cry in the healing facility room, nobody could’ve speculated the genuine explanation for his peaceful wails…

The couple’s birthing picture taker, Kristie Perez, caught the minute this new dad separated in tears and later addressed him about it. Notwithstanding, when Kristie’s customer uncovered the genuine reason he separated before her camera focal point, she knew she needed to impart it to the world.

Kristie posted the spouse’s story and a progression of staggering pictures from that mystical day with the Love What Matters page.

“He helplessly watched his wife vomit profusely for 285+ days. He witnessed her lose 30 pounds in pregnancy not being able to nourish herself due to Hyperemesis Gravidarum & preeclampsia.

She was hospitalized 4 times for dehydration throughout her pregnancy. Ate more dinners on the front steps of their home than he could count because any scent literally made her ill.

After months of simply being there for her as much as possible, he supported her during birth. I told him I captured him crying seeing his son and he said, ‘That’s not why I was crying.’

“Puzzled, I asked what he meant.

He teared up again and said, ‘This is the first time I have seen her smile in 10 months.’

Men, please understand how powerful your empathy can be.

To all of the mothers who have traumatic pregnancies and still find a way to smile… thank you for sacrificing yourself and enduring to bring your precious child into the world. That is no easy feat.”

Moms are extreme, imposing creatures and nothing flaunts this quality more than birth. This present spouse’s undeniable love and reverence for his better half is something all men can acknowledge.

Conceiving an offspring isn’t simple – and basically regarding the hardships that accompany pregnancy is unimaginably useful, from a lady’s point of view!

View more excellent photographs from their child’s introduction to the world underneath. What an enthusiastic minute, and a brilliant day!

Please SHARE this amazing moment with family and friends to show the true beauty of child birth!

Senior citizen gets a job at Walmart – two hours later he’s fired for a very unusual reason

By

This is quiet an unusual story of a senior citizen who had one of the shortest careers at Walmart.
It was just 2 hours into his first day when all of a sudden he got fired. What was the reason on would wonder? Well lets just say it will make you burst with laughter.

Many people who have read this story believe that his boss took the correct action, but others are convinced he should have backed up his employee.

I am pretty sure you all will have your own opinion, but let’s start at the very beginning of the events that took place.

The elderly man had served in the military and had only recently retired. His life now revolved around sitting at home alone with no one to talk to, he was having difficulty adjusting to this type of lifestyle as he was used to having contact with people. So he took it upon himself to go and find a part-time job.

After numerous days of job hunting he eventually landed a job as a greeter with the well known American discount store Walmart. Unfortunately his time there did not last long.

Below is the hilariously funny story of how it happened (in his own words):

“So after landing my new job as a Walmart greeter, a good find for many retirees, I lasted less than a day…

About two hours into my first day on the job, a very loud, mean-looking woman walked into the store with her two kids, yelling obscenities at them all the way through the entrance.

I said pleasantly, ‘Good morning and welcome to Walmart. Nice children you have there. Are they twins?’ Of course, her children were years apart, and while they shared common features, they certainly didn’t look like each other.

The woman stopped yelling long enough to say, ‘Hell no, they ain’t twins. The oldest one’s nine, and the other one’s seven. Why the hell would you think they’re twins? Are you blind or stupid?’

So I replied, ‘I’m neither blind nor stupid, Ma’am. I just can’t believe someone slept with you twice. Have a good day and thank you for shopping at Walmart.’

My supervisor said I probably wasn’t cut out for this line of work.”

Teacher asked 2nd graders what invention they wish didn’t exist. One girl’s answer broke her heart.

Second grade teacher Jen Beason asked her students to write about an invention they wished had never been invented.

Four of Beason’s students wrote that they wished their parent’s phones had never been invented. Why? Because their parents spend more time staring at their phones than they do talking to their kids.

Beason posted about her students’ responses in a Facebook post, “I don’t like the phone because my [parents] are on their phone every day … I hate my mom’s phone and I wish she never had one,” said a student in a picture Beason’s posted.

Many others weighed in. A fellow teacher wrote, “We had a class discussion about Facebook and every single one of the students said their parents spend more time on FB then they do talking to their child. It was very eye opening for me,” Abbey Fauntleroy commented.

It’s a sobering reminder that our kids need our time and our attention. It’s time to put down our phones and plug in our children’s lives.

Set aside time each night to devote to your children. Put the phone away, out of reach, so you won’t be tempted to use it. Your children deserve your undivided attention and time.

60-year-old wife gets makeover as birthday gift – husband gasps when he sees her incredible transformation

Age is just a number, as they say. But we all know that isn’t strictly true. As we grow older, it isn’t just the number that changes. Wrinkles creep in, you start to find grey hairs and your skin begins to sag. There’s nothing wrong with any of that, of course – there are plenty of beautiful pensioners out there!

60 year old Cindy didn’t feel beautiful. As her birthday approached, she decided it was time for a makeover. She wanted the image she saw in the mirror to match how she felt on the inside. So she contacted makeover expert Christopher Hopkins, and asked him to make her beautiful.

The result left both Cindy and her husband in shock…

Cindy hadn’t visited a salon in a while, and her hair felt dull and lifeless. On top of that, she had no idea how to do her make up to compliment her age. She hoped that Christopher could help her with that.

Before Cindy sat in the stylist’s chair, she and her husband described their expectations on camera. Cindy had a lot of expectations, and her husband said that he didn’t want to influence what she decided to do with her look, only support her.

“I don’t want to give her my influences, this is her gift. She’s the canvas, she can paint the canvas the way she wants,” he explains.

Cindy wanted to be beautiful, but she still wanted to look natural. She also wanted to learn a simple make up routine that she could fix herself in the mornings.

Christopher cut and colored her hair. Then he showed her how to apply simple make up that compliments her skin type.

When everything was ready, Cindy’s husband got to see the final result. Do you think he was surprised?

She looks like a new person! Don’t you think?

In the video below you can see the full transformation as well as interviews with Cindy and her husband.

Everyone deserves to feel beautiful! Share this article if you agree!

He Was Mad When His Rich Boss Ignored Him, But Was Shocked To Learn This

By

Jessica Jones

Reader Marie K. sent us recently forwarded us this story. It’s worth taking a second of your day to read.

My boss drove a luxury car everyday, and it was my duty to greet him and to open the gates for him, as I worked as a watchman in his villa. But he never responded back to my greetings.

One day he saw me opening the garbage bags outside the villa in search of any leftover food. But as usual, he never even looked at me, it was like as if he never saw anything.

The very next day I saw a paper bag at the same place, but it was clean and the food inside was covered well. It was fresh, like someone had just brought it from the supermarket. I didn’t care where it came from, I just took the paper bag and I was so happy.

Every day I found this paper bag at the same place with fresh vegetables and all the food we needed at home. This became my daily routine. I was eating and sharing this food with my wife and kids. I was wondering who this fool could be. How could he forget his paper bag full of fresh food everyday?

One day there was a big problem in the villa, and I was told that my boss has died. There were too many guests coming to the villa that day and I didn’t find the bag of food, so I thought that one of the guests must have taken it. But the same thing happened the 2nd day, the 3rd day and the 4th day.

It went on like this for a few weeks and I found it difficult to provide food for my family, so I decided to ask the wife of my boss for a raise in my salary or else I would quit my job as a watchman.

After I told her, she was shocked, and asked me, how come you never complained about your salary for the last 2 years? And why is this salary not enough for you now? I gave her so many excuses but she was never convinced!

Finally in the end, I decided to tell her the truth, I told her the entire story of the bag of groceries, and as to how it was my daily provision. She then asked me when the mystery bags stopped appearing. I told her after the death of her husband. And then I realized that I stopped seeing the paper bag immediately after the death of my boss. Why didn’t I ever think of this before? It was my boss who was providing this for me, all along. I guess I never thought that a person who never even replied to my greetings could ever be so generous.

His wife started to cry, and I told her to please stop crying, and that I’m really sorry that I asked for a raise, I didn’t know that it was your husband who was providing me with the meals, I’ll remain as a watchman and be happy to provide my service.

His wife told me, “I’m crying because I’ve finally found the 7th person my husband was giving this bag full of food. I knew my husband was giving to 7 people everyday, I had already found the 6 people, and all these days I was searching for the 7th person. And today I found out.”

From that day onward, I started to receive the bag full of food again, but this time his son was bringing it to my house and giving it to my hand. But whenever I thanked him, he never replied. Just like his dad!

One day, I told him THANK YOU in a very loud voice! He replied back to me to please not be offended when he doesn’t reply, because he has a hearing problem, just like his dad.”

Police officers around the nation have been participating in what is called the “Lip Sync Challenge” – and this time it was the Sherman Police Department of Texas who decided to show off their skills.

While we’ve seen many different acts, from “Uptown Funk” to Frozen’s “Do You Want to Build a Snowman,” these officers decided to go a little more old-school and bring in a classic movie scene. Although instead of in a bar, it takes place in a donut shop.

It all begins at Hot N Creamy Donuts where the cops have stopped to grab a snack. The establishment is filled of Sherman PD officers, but there happens to be one pretty lady up at the counter who’s just a regular customer.

A group of 4 men sitting at a table start discussing the Lip Sync Challenge and what they should do for it. But as it turns out, a lot of great ideas have already been taken by other departments and they really want their idea to be unique.

That’s when one of the officers spots the blonde stranger at the counter. His eyes light up as he turns to his fellow officer and says,

“Wow. Hey, look at that… She’s lost that lovin’ feeling.”

The man replies that “no she hasn’t” – but that doesn’t stop the first cop from getting out of his chair and heading towards the customer – and of course Officer “Goose” quickly follows.

Do you know where this one is going by now?

The officer then taps the woman gazing at the pastry items on the shoulder. Looking confused she spins around, and that’s when it gets exciting…

Using a donut instead of a microphone, the officer starts lip syncing to “You’ve Lost That Lovin’ Feelin.'” However, it’s not the sound of The Righteous Brothers, he’s mimicking the famous scene from the movie Top Gun lip syncing to Tom Cruise’s voice!

After a moment Officer “Goose” joins in, followed by the entire restaurant full of Sherman PD officers. It’s a classic scene that still makes you blush as the woman has a whole room of people singing “You’ve Lost That Lovin’ Feelin'” just to her.

These officers definitely deserve points for creativity as their Top Gun performance is so much fun to watch. In fact, it’s been viewed more than 7 million times already!

You can watch it for yourself in the video below. What will they think of next?

4 Sons Think They’re Funny By Sending Their Moms A Selfie, Crack Up When They See Their Reply

Sometimes a selfie is so fun to take and we have to go back and look at it to remember the amazing moment.

These four sons were together at a Dodger’s baseball game when they decided it would be funny to send their moms a selfie of the four of them together enjoying the game.

The mom’s got the last laugh!

The moms were also together at the same time so they created their own selfie to celebrate this moment.

This is what they sent. What do you think?

We think it was perfect! They paid attention to every detail right down to the direction of the baseball caps! The moms took every pose to the extreme, the furrowed brow, the clenched fist, the drink, as well as the thumbs up.

This is one selfie their sons will likely keep on their phones for a long time to come!

One Reddit user, ibarabi, said it reminded them of this image of two parents spoofing their son’s Facebook picture:

Some parents seem to have a lot of fun recreating pictures of their kids and think it’s pretty funny, but the kids might disagree.

Here’s a whole family getting involved in recreating a selfie:

When your brother takes a selfie and posts it what do you do? Well these brothers and father decided to go for the same look. Are they all superhero fans with the same shirt?

Have you ever spoofed someone’s selfie? Post them in the comments we would love to see them!

Man overhears two soldiers’ whisper on plane, gets to flight attendant as fast as he can

But let’s be honest — it’s sometimes hard to avoid hearing other people’s conversations. Especially in tight spots such as on buses, subways and airplanes.

That’s exactly where this story begins when one passenger happened to overhear another conversation between two men.

After the conversation Denny Kukich, knew what he’d heard was amazing…

Here is his story:

“I put my carry-on in the luggage compartment and sat down in my assigned seat. It was going to be a long flight. ‘I’m glad I have a good book to read. Perhaps I will get a short nap,’ I thought.

Just before take-off, a line of soldiers came down the aisle and filled all the vacant seats, totally surrounding me. I decided to start a conversation.

Picking up ten sacks, she headed up the aisle to where the soldiers were seated. She stopped at my seat and asked, ‘Which do you like best – beef or chicken?’

‘Chicken,’ I replied, wondering why she asked. She turned and went to the front of plane, returning a minute later with a dinner plate from first class.

‘This is your thanks..’

After we finished eating, I went again to the back of the plane, heading for the rest room. A man stopped me. ‘I saw what you did. I want to be part of it. Here, take this.’ He handed me twenty-five dollars

"I put my carry-on in the luggage compartment and sat down in my assigned seat. It was going to be a long flight. 'I'm…

Not long after, I saw the Flight Captain coming down the aisle. He was searching the aisle numbers as he walked, I hoped he was not looking for me! I noticed he was looking at the numbers only on my side of the plane. He got to my row and stopped, smiled, held out his hand and said, ‘I want to shake your hand.’ Quickly unfastening my seatbelt I stood and took the Captain’s hand.

With a booming voice he said, ‘I was a soldier and I was a military pilot. Once, someone bought me a lunch. It was an act of kindness I never forgot.’ I was embarrassed when applause was heard from all of the passengers.

Later I walked to the front of the plane so I could stretch my legs. A man who was seated about six rows in front of me reached out his hand, wanting to shake mine. He left another twenty-five dollars in my palm.

When we landed I gathered my belongings and started to deplane. Waiting just inside the airplane door was a man who stopped me, put something in my shirt pocket, turned, and walked away without saying a word. Another twenty-five dollars!

Upon entering the terminal, I saw the soldiers gathering for their trip to the base. I walked over to them and handed them seventy-five dollars. ‘It will take you some time to reach the base.. It will be about time for a sandwich. God Bless You.’

Ten young men left that flight feeling the love and respect of their fellow travelers.

As I walked briskly to my car, I whispered a prayer for their safe return. These soldiers were giving their all for our country. I could only give them a couple of meals. It seemed so little…

A veteran is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to ‘The United States of America ‘ for an amount of ‘up to and including my life.’

That is Honor, and there are way too many people in this country who no longer understand it.’ ”

THANK YOU to all the service men and woman that give everything to this great country of ours. Give them a round of applause, comment “Thank you” in the comments!

The newlyweds, Prince Harry and his bride Meghan Markle made their first official trip as a married couple in May landing in Ireland for two days.

The couple got the biggest surprise of their married life when a 19 year old girl presented them with a gift.

19-year-old Chloe Mullins had been preparing to see the newly married princess for several weeks. Princess Diana’s youngest son and Meghan took the time to greet the people of Ireland during their time on the Emerald Island.

Chloe stood in the crowd with a special gift in hand. She stretched her hand out, and caught the Prince’s attention.

Chloe had spent a lot time and energy sketching an image of the happy couple. It was amazing. She is so talented she was hopeful that they would accept her gift.

Here’s the sketch:

WOW! Right?

The royal couple seemed to think so, appearing stunned by the present. Images of Meghan and Harry’s face clearly reveal how surprised and flattered they were.

Nurses have a tough job, not only are the giving meds, taking directions from doctors, answering call bells, and sometimes even serving meals. Good nurses are also therapists. Giving words of encouragement, glimpses of hope and in some cases just a listening ear.

Brandalyn Mae Porter works in a retirement home in Texas, as a nurse. She is clearly one those who clearly has a very positive impact on her residents.

She is known for her simple, yet straightforward way and can make the residents feel at ease.

Brandalyn took a special picture of one of the resident’s hands and now it is spreading online like wildfire.

She was at work helping a resident wash up and asked her if she wanted her nails painted.

Here is her story of that day:

“Today I painted a new resident’s nails at work and as we were going over colors, she mentioned she wanted clear. The only thought that came to my mind was ‘CLEAR?! That’s no fun.’ I asked her why she wanted clear and she said, ‘My hands are ugly, I don’t want to draw attention to them.’

“I then carefully responded with, ‘Your hands tell the story of your life. They tell the story of love, of care and adventure. These hands have touched and held things that most people can only wish to one day.’ And with that, she went with the color pink for her nails.

Sometimes what we are so insecure with, others find beauty in.“

Brandalyn’s beautiful inspiring words finally convinced the lady to paint her nails and not because her hands were beuartiful but because of what they revealed. Her life experiences!

All day long she could show off her beautiful manicure along with the many stories her hands had to tell.

Brandalyn and all Healthcare professionals deserve recognition for the important role they play in our healthcare system. It’s because of people like Brandalyn that this world is a wonderful place.

Ungrateful wife left him and their son after a fight – 2 days later, he writes her a letter everyone should read

After a long, stressful day at work, a man went home exhausted to his family.

All he wanted to do was sit down in his favorite chair and watch his favorite team play football. He didn’t want to be disturbed by his kids or help his wife do any chores.

This upset his wife to no end and the couple got in a big argument.

It had happened before, but this was the last straw and the man’s wife stormed out of the house.

She didn’t come home that night, or the next morning, either.

The man’s world collapsed and suddenly he had to take care of himself. After two days alone with his kids, the man found a moment to sit down and write this letter to his wife:

My darling,

Two nights ago, we had a huge argument. I was exhausted when I got home from work. It was 8:00 p.m and all I wanted to do was to lie down and watch the game.

You weren’t in a good mood, and you were clearly tired after having a long day. You were trying to put the baby to sleep as the other kids were fighting, and all I did was turn the volume up.

“Would it kill you to play a more active role in your children’s upbringing?” you asked, turning the television volume back down. “You can help out more around the house, too.”

“Hey,” I said defensively. “I work hard all day just so you could play in the doll’s house all day.”

The argument just kept going like that. I said terrible things to you that I can never take back, and you screamed, saying that you were sick of it all. So you tearfully ran out of the house, leaving me to take care of the children on my own.

I was forced to feed the kids and put them to bed all by myself. When you didn’t come back the next day, I was forced to ask my boss if I could take a day off so I could take care of the children.

I experienced the crying and the tantrums.

I experienced having to run around so much all day that I didn’t even have a chance to shower.

I experienced being forced to heat the milk, getting the kids dressed, and cleaning the kitchen all at once.

I experienced being cooped up all day without speaking to an adult.

I experienced the inability to sit calmly at the table to have a relaxed meal whenever I wanted, because I had to run after the kids.

I experienced feeling so physically and emotionally drained that I just wanted to sleep for 20 hours straight, but had to get up a few hours after falling asleep because the baby was crying.

I lived two days and two nights the way that you do, and I think I get it now.

I get your exhaustion. I get that being a mother is all about sacrifice.

I get that it is more tiring than being among corporate bigwigs for 10 hours and making economic decisions.

I get how frustrated you must be to have to sacrifice your job and financial freedom so that you can provide for your children.

I get how uncertain you are about the fact that your economic security now depends on your partner and not just you.

I get how hard it is to not be able to hang out with your friends, exercise, or get a good night’s sleep.

I get how challenging it is, being locked up and being forced to to watch the children while imagining what you must be missing in the outside world.

I also get that you become upset when my mother criticizes how you choose to raise our children, because nobody in the world knows what is best for children like their own mother.

I get that being a mother means carrying society’s greatest burdens. Being the person that nobody appreciates, values, or remembers.

I write you this letter not just to tell you that you are missed, but additionally because I don’t want to go another day without telling you:

“You are strong, doing an excellent job, and I admire you.”

This letter has been circulating on the internet for a while, and it’s a wonderful tribute from a man to his wife. He never understood what an unbelievable job she did before he was forced to put himself in her shoes.

I hope everyone who reads this understands what an important job it is to stay home and take care of the children.

Teen wants to wear see-through blouse on her date – grandma’s reaction is just perfect

There’s a reason why you shouldn’t mess with old people…

Grandmothers and grandfathers have a lot of experience and they know how to make a point—something this grandmother clearly shows.

When she saw her teenage granddaughter put on a see-through blouse to go out on a date, this grandma didn’t approve at all.

So the clever old lady came up with a solution that both put a big smile on my face and got the teenage girl thinking…

Scroll down to see this grandma’s hilarious response:

The teenage granddaughter comes downstairs for her date with this see-through blouse on and no bra.

Her grandmother just pitched a fit, telling her not to dare go out like that!

The teenager tells her, “Loosen up, Grams. These are modern times. You gotta let your rosebuds show!” and out she goes.

The next day the teenager comes downstairs, and the grandmother is sitting there with no top on.

The teenager wants to die. She explains to her grandmother that she has friends coming over and that it is just not appropriate…

Her grandmother says, “Loosen up, Sweetie. If you can show off your rosebuds, then I can display my hanging baskets.”

I can just imagine the look on her granddaughter’s face!

He walked 20 miles to his first day of work. Here’s what happened when his boss found out.

Walter Carr was all set for his first day of a new job, but then his car broke down 20 miles from work.

With the car dead and his new job with a moving company called Bellhops on the line, Carr knew he only had one choice: to walk. So after taking a four-hour nap to give him strength, the Birmingham, Alabama, resident started the long walk to work at midnight.

It took him another four hours to get to his destination.

At 3 a.m., several officers saw Carr walking through a neighborhood and stopped to ask where we was going.

After Carr told them about his journey, the officers took him to breakfast and then to a church, where they thought he’d have a safe place to rest until his job started.

But not wanting to be late for the first moving job of the day, Carr took off for Jenny and Chris Lamey’s home. Another officer — who’d just come on the clock and heard Carr’s story — picked him up and drove him the rest of the way.

By 6:30 a.m., the Lameys got a knock at their door. Carr had made it to work and was ready to move their household. Carr put in a full day, refusing even a short nap before he started.

Jenny Lamey, so impressed with Carr’s perseverance, shared the story on Facebook. The post has since gone viral, amassing hundreds of shares.

The CEO of Bellhops caught wind of Carr’s journey.

Luke Marklin, the CEO of Bellhops, drove from Tennessee to meet the guy who’d walked 20 miles to get to work. By the end of their meeting, Carr was walking away with something more than just a clap on the shoulder.

Marklin gifted Carr his own car to make sure that he wouldn’t have to choose walking over sleeping before work again. Jenny Lamey also contributed, starting a GoFundMe that’s raised more than $8,000 for Carr’s future.

“I want people to know this: No matter what the challenge is, you can break through the challenge,” Carr told AL.com. “Nothing is impossible unless you make it impossible. You can do anything you set your mind to.”

Smart older lady calls a hospital to check on a patient, has the operator laughing by the end

Senior citizens tend to get a bad rap. Most people assume they live in Florida, sit around knitting all day, and go to bed at dusk. But those are unfair stereotypes!

Sure, old folks may have a few more health concerns than younger adults, but they still have their wits about them — and they still know how to have a little fun.

For instance, did you know that President George H.W. Bush skydived well into his 90s, comedian George Burns puffed on cigars until his death at 100,and a saucy old granny in England recently snuck out of her nursing home to get a tattoo?

The senior shenanigans don’t stop there, either. Plenty of people in their golden oldies are adding a little sparkle to their lives by being downright cool and hysterically funny.

Take the grandma in this story I heard a few years ago. What she does when she calls a hospital is not only hilarious, but it’s also a whip-smart move any whippersnapper half her age would be proud to say they thought of themselves…

A sweet old lady telephoned St. Joseph’s Hospital. She asked, “Is it possible to speak to someone who can tell me how a patient is doing?”

The operator said, “I can. What the name and the room number?”

The old lady said, “Norma Findlay, Room 302.”

The operator replied, “Let me place you on hold while I check with her nurse.”

After a few minutes the operator returned to the phone and said, “Oh, I have good news, her nurse just told me that Norma is doing very well. Her blood pressure is fine, her blood work just came back as normal, and her physician, Dr. Cohen, has scheduled her to be discharged on Tuesday.”

The old lady said, “Thank you. That’s wonderful! I was so worried! God bless you!”

The operator replied, “You’re more than welcome. Is Norma your daughter?”

The grandmother said, “No, I’m Norma Findlay in 302. No one ever tells me sh*t.”

Please SHARE if this grandma put a smile on your face.

This nail polish is long overdue! Please be sure to share this with all the amazing woman in your life to keep them safe.

One little boy was missing his dad so much he found a way to fill the void.

What would you do if this happened to you? Would you step in for a soldier that is protecting and serving your country, or would you turn him away?

The mom’s got the last laugh!
