Speaker 1: Kalaroga Shark Media congrat relations to Spootles, the parakeet. Spootles
is aged thirty two years in eighty six days and counting.
That set the record for oldest living parakeet in the world.
Parakeets typically live only fifteen to twenty years in captivity.
That was not my experience growing up at all. I
would have been off by a factor of I don't
know eight anyways. Spootles has been with her human friend
Amanda since nineteen ninety seven, when Amanda's mother gave her
the bird as a gift. At the time, Spoodles was
already three years old. Amanda says Spootles isn't quite as
chatty as previously, but still greets each morning with the
familiar phrase pretty bird. Amanda joked, I always say keeps
not dying, so I keep feeding him harsh there. Well,
good luck, Spootles. A Dominoes manager from Virginia has earned
the title of World's Fastest Pizza Maker after assembling three
large pizzas in just over thirty one seconds. Congratulations to Richard,
who won the championship at the Domino's Worlds of Fastest
Pizza Making competition in Las Vegas. What you have to do.
You had to prepare three large pizzas, one pepperoni, one mushroom,
one cheese while meeting strict Domino standards for dough sauce,
cheese and toppings. Richard completed all three and thirty one
point two to two seconds. He earned a five thousand
dollars prize, a trophy and a championship belt. Where you
wear the belt, I don't know, Richard said, winning this
title means so much to me. The competition isn't just
about speed. It's about delivering quality under pressure, just like
we do in stores every day from Australia where they
have all kinds of things that'll kill you. A routine
call to remove a snake from a bedroom, you know,
a routine call happens every day. Hey, we got a
snake in the bedroom. I'll be right over. Stuart was
called to a hope in Queensland after a resident discovered
a large carpet python inside the bedroom. But when Stewart
entered the room, he spotted something else above the bed.
It was a giant Huntsman spider. Video of the rescue
show Stewart carefully removing the carpet python. With a snake hook.
I guess what else would use the snake cook for? Right,
before using his hat to safely capture the spider. The
spider was released outside the home. The python was relocated
to a nearby wooded area. Neither the homeowners nor the
animals were harmed. In California, a camping trip took an
unfortunate turn when one man's attempt to recover a pair
of drop sunglasses ended with an emergency rescue. John, this
doesn't sound like good news, no, but you're gonna tell
your friends about it. Authorities were called to camp Edison
after the man became trapped inside the holding tank beneath
a campground vault toilet. You ever been in one of those,
You know what it looks like at the bottom of
the pit. Now imagine you lost your sunglasses and you
reached in to retrieve them, you lose your balance and
you fall into that tank. Oh my goodness. Deputies and
firefighters pulled the man out after about fifty ten minutes.
The man went through a decontamination process because of his
exposure to waste and gleaning chemicals. The best part of
this story is no one bothered to mention whether or
not he actually got the sunglasses back. In Montana, drivers
on the interest date got a surprise when the Big
Banana Car was pulled over by the Montana Highway Patrol.
That's right, the Big Banana Car. It's a bright yellow vehicle.
You would imagine it's shaped like a giant banana. Yeah,
that all tracks. It was stopped near Billings, but here's why.
The boxes strapped to the cargo rack were partially blocking
the vehicle's license plate, which reads split. The troopers pointed
it out, had a friendly conversation with the driver of
the Big Banana Car and sent him on his way
without issuing a ticket. The Big Banana Car started its
life as a nineteen ninety three Ford F one to
fifty pickup truck. The owner sold most of his belongings
and now just drives the Big Banana Car all around.
He says he gets pulled over frequently simply because people
want a closer look at the car. But this time
the police out a legit reason to pull over the
Big Banana Car. And those are your five good news
stories for today. Have a great day.
