This is a video of wildlife enthusiast and founder of Ocean Conservation Namibia Naude Dreyer bare-hand rescuing three sharks (the largest being around 40-pounds) and returning them to deep water. The sharks got trapped in a lagoon after sulphur eruptions caused a lack of oxygen in the water and sent

Nostalgia: I remember playing Warcraft II PvP over a 56k modem with friends in high school. I’d purposefully pick up the phone if they were going to beat me. This is a video of Youtuber Gough Lui connecting to the internet 90’s style via an period-appropriate PC (with Intel Pentium
