Some kid survived being fully under water (ice cold) for ~2.5 hours (and possibly up to 3) bc he basically got cryogenically almost-frozen (so brain oxygen needs plummeted)
Pretty insane

It is funny the furthest French that's ever been spoken from Earth was spoken by an Ontarian who had to learn it for promotion in the Air Force.

One of my favourite facts is that US Airforce Pararescue troops have a tradition that when they qualify they get a pair of “jolly green giant” bootprints tattooed on one of their buttocks.

As details emerge about the rescue of the missing Weapon Systems Officer from the downed F-15E, it appears to be a quite incredible rescue calling on a quite staggering degree of military capability and complexity. An incredible effort by Navy SEALs, Airforce Pararescue Jumpers and the 160th SOAR as they prevented Iranian forces from closing in, denied two C-130s that couldn’t take off due to the soft ground and extracted the aircrewman who had spent 48hrs on the ground evading Iranian forces with a bounty on his head. Whatever your feelings about the wider conflict, this daring rescue will live long in the memory and illustrates that only the US realistically has the capability to conduct this type of combat search and rescue mission.

Not traditionally a great sign when it starts becoming known that ministers are distancing themselves from election campaigns a month before polling day.

Today I learned there is an antique shop in Australia (JB Hawkins in Tasmania) that claims to have the skull of Thomas Paine.

The British Government is a complicated beast. Dozens of departments, hundreds of public bodies, more corporations than one can count...
Such is its complexity that there isn't an org chart for it.
Well, there wasn't...

People forget that in the 1990s, Britain was the fourth biggest manufacturing economy in the world.
Through the 1990s the number of jobs in manufacturing *increased*.
From 1993 to 1998, British manufacturing employment increased from 4.1 million to 4.3 million. Not unrelatedly, across the same timespan, electricity prices dropped by 22%.
Our manufacturing crisis today is above all an energy crisis.

The police couldn’t locate the 4th suspect so they waited until he turned up to the court to support the other 3 and arrested him there 😭

This is a big part of why these places are so damn expensive compared to 15 or 20 years ago

Depressing to see unimpeded, undeterred criminality in London go completely unremarked - 5 mins in a Costa and three different people have walked in, filled their arms with stuff from the fridge and just walked out. The staff know but apparently see no point reporting it.

@wallaceme Greggs,Waterloo station the other week, in the space of about 10 minutes 3 thefts of volume (scoop up, walk out). Total staff indifference. Only evident reaction was a customer whose choice was no longer present on the shelf.

I sometimes wonder if @dannywallace is still claiming the rise in shoplifting is driven by people starving

If a Chinese student created a map of all the Chinese historical relics destroyed during the Cultural Revolution, they'd be disappeared.

A Chinese student created a website that maps British Museum artifacts to their countries of origin.

@hello_late Your case is currently that there’s nothing to get, there’s no benefit to getting it, and that it’s really important to not allow anyone to get those benefits.

@wallaceme I worry, when people like you , talk about Easter eggs hidden in the North Sea.
