There"s Such A Thing As Indoor Skydiving And It"s Just As Awesome As It Sounds

I consider myself pretty adventurous…

I’ve gone bungee jumping, scuba diving, and whitewater rafting. And while I’d love to say I’ll soon add skydiving to that list, I can’t really see it happening. And a lot of people would agree with me…

Because jumping out of a plane is scary.

But for the Mad Ravens, a team of daredevils who skydive on the regular, it’s less terrifying and more second nature. Watch as they compete at the World Indoor Skydiving Championships — it’s nothing short of jaw-dropping!

This kind of skydiving seems to border on dance, death, art, and sport.

If it’s more safe than the plane alternative, I may actually end up giving it a whirl! Who’s with me?

Bull Shark Attacks Spear Fisherman At Full Speed, Completely Unprovoked

When we think of scary sharks, we often think of Great Whites.

After all, they’re enormous. Those teeth are the stuff of nightmares. In reality, many shark attacks are carried out by the Great White’s much smaller cousin, the bull shark. Known for being aggressive and living in shallow, warm water around the world, you’re much more likely to run into one of these nasty fellows.

A spear fisherman swimming off the coast of North Queensland, Australia, however, caught a highly unusual and terrifying behavior on video.

All of a sudden, the bull shark appears out of nowhere, attacking him unprovoked. I’m so glad he had a spear with him!

Fortunately, the diver managed to fend off the shark without sustaining injuries. Still, it’s an incredibly scary experience. SHARE this video with the people you know who can’t get enough of Shark Week.

When You See This Cop"s Act Of Charity, You"ll Be Inspired To Do The Same

The duty of police officers is to protect and serve the community. That means stopping crimes from happening, ensuring the safety of those who live in their precincts, and making sure that people are obeying the law.

But there are other ways that cops can protect and serve. For instance, this officer saw a homeless man with worn-out shoes sitting in a parking lot. That’s when he took action in the kindest, most genuine way.

A simple act of kindness went a long way for this humble cop. We should all try to follow in his footsteps!

18 Kids Who Are So Darn Happy, That It"s 100% Infectious

As adults, we’re all too caught up in our work lives to focus on making ourselves happy.

That’s probably the one thing I miss most about being a kid. Everything just appeared to be filled with pure, unadulterated joy, and even the tiniest things could put a smile on my face. Small children really understand the concept of not sweating the small stuff and finding beauty everywhere.

googletag.cmd.push(function() googletag.display(‘VN_PG_DCBP_ATF’); );

Like laughter, happiness can be contagious, so here are 17 infectiously happy kids who are sure to brighten your day.

1. Because there’s no greater feeling than cheering on your favorite sports team.

2. Who knew trying new foods could be this exciting?

3. This tiny tot can’t contain her happiness about going for a ride.

4. In life, all you need is a four-legged best friend and a puddle to jump in.

5. If she keeps this up, she might just be the next Doctor Dolittle.

6. This little kid’s excited about his new job at UPS.

7. It’s not every day you see a kid get this excited about a race.

8. I have this same reaction whenever I make popcorn (until I realize that I’ve managed to burn it yet again).

9. I don’t think I was ever this excited about riding the school bus.

10. They say it’s the thought that counts, but I think this kid was pretty excited about receiving a banana as a gift.

11. I feel the same way when I roll out of bed and wear my PJs to work.

12. Nothing gets me more excited than when it’s time for food.

13. Power outages are literally the worst, so I can appreciate this kid’s reaction when the lights come back on.

14. This girl goes “off the rails” after watching an approaching train for the first time.

googletag.cmd.push(function() googletag.display(‘VN_PG_DCI2_BTF’); );

15. “Can you hear me now?”

16. When you look up happiness in the dictionary, you’ll find a picture of an ice cream truck.

17. I used to do this exact same dance whenever my parents bought me new clothes.

18. I miss the days when I could get this excited about losing a tooth and finding 50 cents under my pillow.

I didn’t expect these kids to have such an effect on me, but their joy makes me want to turn back time and spend the afternoon watching cartoons while eating dinosaur-shaped chicken nuggets. I think I just might.

Creepy Video From "Hacktivist" Anonymous Claims To Explain The Coming Of WWIII

Many people have been joking lately that we’re on the verge of World War III, but according to a hacker group called Anonymous, it’s about to happen.

Donning their signature Guy Fawkes mask and robotic voice in one of their latest videos, they warn the public that we need to get ready for the next world war, because a swift and “globally devastating” nuclear attack is imminent. Whether this is true or not is definitely up for speculation, but either way, their message is absolutely chilling.

Watch as they explain why they’re convinced that countries around the world are strategically preparing for war, and that “the citizens will be the last to know.” There’s nothing that isn’t creepy about it.

While I’m skeptical of the accuracy of their claims, it really freaks me out to consider that any of what they’re saying might actually happen. Share if you’re more than a little worried about what current events may mean for our future.

You Think This Horrid Thing Only Happens Abroad, But Kids Are Suffering Right Here

Female genital mutilation (FGM) is a practice we usually associate with some of the poorest countries in the world.

FGM involves cutting a young girl’s clitoris and/or labia for religious or cultural reasons. What you probably don’t know is that the practice hits closer to home than you may think. There has recently been a rise in FGM procedures in the United States, and women are now speaking out about what happened to them.

Renee Bergstrom underwent FGM when her Christian parents told their doctor that she was touching herself. He said he “could fix that.”

People don’t realize that FGM occurs across educational levels, social classes, and many religious groups, including Muslims, Christians, and animists.

The practice has no medical benefits and across the world the number of women experiencing FGM is declining. Unfortunately, in the U.S., there has been an alarming rise that’s resulted in triple the number of victims.

While it’s illegal according to federal law, only 24 states currently have provisions about FGM, despite at-risk girls living in every state except Hawaii.
