Good news if you've been staring at the 22 00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:34,920 cover of led Zeppelin four all these years and you're like, who is that 23 00:01:36,079 --> 00:01:38,719 on the cover? Lot Long is the name of the man. He was 24 00:01:38,799 --> 00:01:42,719 a roof Thatcher born in eighteen twenty three and died a widower in eighteen ninety 25 00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:47,480 three, years after getting his picture taken by the first head of the School 26 00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:52,040 of Photography at the University of Westminster. Brian Edwards is a researcher from the 27 00:01:52,079 --> 00:01:55,480 University of West England. He was slipping through antique photo collections as part of 28 00:01:55,519 --> 00:01:57,959 a project and he came across a photo of a bearded man stooping over the 29 00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:01,640 weight of a burden of sticks slung over his back. Edwards told the BBC 30 00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:07,120 I instantly recognized the man with the sticks. He's often called the stick Man. 31 00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:10,319 There's more part of former signature matches some of the handwriting on the led 32 00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:14,639 Zeppelin four album. The black and white photograph has a thumbprint in the corner. 33 00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:16,960 It looks like it's the original. Apparently the selection of the photo for 34 00:02:17,159 --> 00:02:21,319 led Zeppelin four was part of a scheme to deliberately play down the album, 35 00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:23,240 with Robert Plant finding the image of the stick Man in a shop and reading 36 00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:29,159 compairing it to a scene of urban decay without any words. Good news. 37 00:02:29,159 --> 00:02:32,400 If you get overloaded with noise and lights and stuff, Walmart will lower the 38 00:02:32,479 --> 00:02:36,319 lights, turn off the radio, and change their TV walls to a static 39 00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:40,680 image for daily Sensory Friendly hours. Love It museums and other cultural institutions that 40 00:02:40,719 --> 00:02:45,960 cater to children spearheaded these special hours more than a decade ago. Walmart said 41 00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:49,960 the stores are making shopping more inclusive for those with sensory disabilities by taking measures 42 00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:53,240 to create a less stimulating environment. The Sensory Friendly hours and you're gonna have 43 00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:57,560 to get up early eight to ten am local time and all US and Puerto 44 00:02:57,599 --> 00:03:00,159 Rico stores there is no planned end date. Good news for the owner of 45 00:03:00,199 --> 00:03:05,319 a bright red Ferrari well former owner because they just sold it for fifty one 46 00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:09,080 point seven million dollars including buyer's fees. That's the kick. When you spend 47 00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:13,680 fifty one million dollars on a car and then like the state registration still seventy 48 00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:16,199 five bucks. That's annoying. Despite that huge price, it fell short of 49 00:03:16,199 --> 00:03:21,800 the auction house's expectations. Two bidders drove the price to forty seven million dollars 50 00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:24,840 before auction house fees. Wow. Four million dollars in fees. Yikes. 51 00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:29,919 There are only thirty six Ferrari two to fifty GTOs at existence, produced between 52 00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:34,560 nineteen sixty two and nineteen sixty four. Owners of the car instantly become members 53 00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:38,479 of an exclusive club that includes Nick Mason, the drummer for Pink Floyd. 54 00:03:38,879 --> 00:03:43,840 Southamy's described this car as one of one you see. Although it looks almost 55 00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:46,560 identical to it two to fifty GTO was really configured as at three thirty LM 56 00:03:46,599 --> 00:03:50,840 and even rare car with a slightly larger engine converted it to a two to 57 00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:53,639 fifty GTO later in sixty two. It's the only one ever raced by Scuderia 58 00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:58,719 Ferrari, the car maker's racing division, Ferrari sold it to a Sicilian surgeon 59 00:03:58,719 --> 00:04:00,719 in nineteen sixty four for six thousand dollars. The car, known as chess 60 00:04:00,719 --> 00:04:04,479 He number thirty seven to sixty five, failed to approach the current auction record 61 00:04:04,479 --> 00:04:10,159 for classic car. That happened last year when sotheby sold a Mercedes Benz three 62 00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:15,000 hundred SLR woolen hats coup for one hundred and forty four million dollars. As 63 00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:17,959 for the red Ferrari, now going for fifty one point seven million, I 64 00:04:17,959 --> 00:04:20,839 bet you wish he had picked it up in nineteen eighty five. Back then 65 00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:28,279 it sold for five hundred thousand dollars. Congratulations to Helen Williams. Helen has 66 00:04:28,319 --> 00:04:32,079 set the Guinness World Record for making the longest handmade wig. This one is 67 00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:38,199 eleven hundred and fifty two feet five inches. She spent eleven days and twenty 68 00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:41,319 five hundred dollars to create the hair piece. It took one thousand bottles of 69 00:04:41,319 --> 00:04:44,240 hair, twelve cans of hairspray, thirty five tubes of hair glue, and 70 00:04:44,319 --> 00:04:47,879 sixty two hundred and fifty hair clips. Helen Williams said this achievement is one 71 00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:50,399 of the best things that's ever happened to me. I still can't believe it. 72 00:04:50,639 --> 00:04:54,639 After completing the hairpiece, finding a place to lay it out and measured 73 00:04:54,680 --> 00:04:59,519 accurately was difficult. She laid it out on a highway. She's now displaying 74 00:04:59,519 --> 00:05:01,959 the wig in her so people can come and look at her record setting efforts. 75 00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:05,160 That's your five good news stories for today.
