00:00:02,520 --> 00:00:08,560
The Shark Deck. I'm Johnny Mac
with five good news stories. Hey,

2
00:00:08,599 --> 00:00:13,000
good news if you'd like to eat
mammoth meat, because they've brought back mammoth

3
00:00:13,039 --> 00:00:16,079
meatballs. It's been a couple of
thousand years since you've been able to have

4
00:00:16,160 --> 00:00:21,920
mammoth meatballs. But on Australian Cultivated
Meat company is resurrecting the flesh of the

5
00:00:22,079 --> 00:00:26,079
long extinct animals. Is this a
good idea at all? Maybe what they're

6
00:00:26,079 --> 00:00:29,359
trying to do is to remove the
need for animal slaughter and meat production by

7
00:00:29,359 --> 00:00:32,399
creating new kinds of meats in the
process. To do this, they've created

8
00:00:32,600 --> 00:00:37,640
lab grown, edible meats from cells, including a meatball made from mammoths.

9
00:00:37,880 --> 00:00:40,600
Tim who works at the company,
said, we chose the wooly mammoth because

10
00:00:40,600 --> 00:00:44,320
it's a symbol of diversity loss and
a symbol of climate change. They took

11
00:00:44,320 --> 00:00:48,640
a DNA sequence from a mammoth myoglobin, which is a key muscle protein for

12
00:00:48,679 --> 00:00:54,079
flavor. Any gaps were filled in
by elephant DNA. Obviously it tastes like

13
00:00:54,200 --> 00:00:57,359
chicken. Hey, good news for
Amanda. Your boyfriend Chris, you know

14
00:00:57,399 --> 00:00:59,880
he's over there on the rugby field. Looks like he broke his leg.

15
00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:03,200
He's fine. You see what happened
was Chris choreographed a rugby tackle with his

16
00:01:03,239 --> 00:01:07,239
whole team. So he goes down
on the pitch. Amanda, newly trained

17
00:01:07,239 --> 00:01:11,239
in first aid, thought it was
serious, so she came over on the

18
00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:14,640
field, and then Chris rolled over
on one knee and pulled out and engage

19
00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:18,280
her ring. Amanda thought Chris had
a broken leg when it got up.

20
00:01:18,319 --> 00:01:19,200
I thought he must have been in
shock. But then he got on one

21
00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:23,519
knee. I was very, very
surprised, Chris said a man. I

22
00:01:23,599 --> 00:01:26,120
knew something was coming I wanted to
do in a way she wouldn't expect.

23
00:01:26,159 --> 00:01:27,680
If I'd booked a trip somewhere,
she would have guessed what was going on.

24
00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:30,840
I was a bit nervous. I
was worried about what the other team

25
00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:33,840
would say. But we were winning
by lots. I wasn't a close game.

26
00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:36,200
I wouldn't have done it otherwise.
Imagine that if it was a close

27
00:01:36,239 --> 00:01:40,519
game and they didn't get engaged.
Good news for fish. A fish doorbell

28
00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:45,040
is saving thousands of fish during migration
season. So the fish Doorbell is a

29
00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:49,359
website featuring a live stream camera on
a year round damn that keeps migrating fish

30
00:01:49,359 --> 00:01:52,200
in the rivers and canals, and
you trek from being captured by predators.

31
00:01:52,480 --> 00:01:56,519
Volunteer viewers can watch the fish Doorbell
live stream for mannywhere in the world.

32
00:01:56,599 --> 00:02:00,200
When you see a fish, you
ring the doorbell that sends a I am

33
00:02:00,319 --> 00:02:02,680
lockkeeper, a signal that fish are
trying to swim through. Last year,

34
00:02:02,719 --> 00:02:07,280
thanks to volunteers, over ten thousand
fish were let through the dam. Do

35
00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:09,960
you like Lego? An artist has
made an interpretation of water lilies by Monet

36
00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:15,800
out of six hundred and fifty thousand
Lego bricks. Titled water Lilies Number One.

37
00:02:15,879 --> 00:02:17,960
You can see it at the Design
Museum in London through July thirtieth.

38
00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:23,360
It's fifty feet long it takes up
a whole wall at the museum. The

39
00:02:23,439 --> 00:02:25,599
artist says, toy Brooks is the
material, with their quality of solidity and

40
00:02:25,599 --> 00:02:30,120
potential for deconstruction, reflect the attributes
of language and our rapidly developing era where

41
00:02:30,159 --> 00:02:40,759

55
00:03:51,599 --> 00:03:55,439
baking. He practices baking three times
a week at the family bakery. Mom

56
00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:59,719
Nicole says they bake at nighttime.
They were baking for the next day.

57
00:03:59,759 --> 00:04:02,680
They always have dill left. So
Parker likes to make something. And he

58
00:04:02,759 --> 00:04:06,479
did and he said, hey,
Mom, I made a mushroom. Mom

59
00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:11,000
started laughing. The kid was like, why are you laughing? He said,

60
00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:15,599
stop laughing. It's a mushroom.
It's a good mushroom. The dad

61
00:04:15,639 --> 00:04:18,160
tried to snip some of the mushroom
off the end and make it appear less

62
00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:24,079
rude didn't work. Parker had the
mushroom with a bowl of tomato soup the

63
00:04:24,079 --> 00:04:28,079
next day and he said it tasted
like mushrooms. That's your five could news
