In much less dangerous world record news, this is a video of musician and Youtuber Davie504 playing the world record holder for bass guitar with the most strings, with a respectable 69. Nice number choice. Of course it’s hard to play all of those strings at once, which is a

This is a video of Lady Pinto Bean demonstrating her prowess with the blade, engaging two foes at once and easily cutting them both down. The way she slices through their legs — my goodness! Obviously, Lady is definitely the dog you want in your adventuring party. And she is
