If you’ve ever thought about spicing up your daily run, try bringing a Rubik’s Cube with you. British speedcuber George Scholey holds the world record for solving the most Rubik’s Cube’s over the course of a marathon. Scholey completed a mind-bending 520 Rubik’s Cubes while covering 26.2 miles in 2024 at the London Marathon. The 22-year-old crossed the finish line in just under four and a half hours, all while keeping his hands in constant motion and his brain in overdrive. To meet strict world record rules, Scholey had to complete the marathon in under five hours, capture every solve on a head-mounted camera, and work with friends stationed along the course who swapped out bags of scrambled and solved cubes.

The fish doorbell is back!!!

In the Netherlands, thousands of fish swim through Utrecht’s canals and waterways, searching for a place to spawn and reproduce.

In the heart of the city lies the beautiful Weerdsluis, a manually operated lock. When the lock gates are closed, fish are forced to wait, wasting valuable time and energy – making them easy prey for birds and predatory fish.

To help the fish, an underwater camera is installed at the lock. If fish appear on screen, you can press the doorbell! This alerts the lock keeper, who will open the lock when many fish are waiting.

And we end with a Florida Man story as seen on Facebook!!

Lee County Sheriff's deputies responded to the Sanibel Causeway early Monday after a motorist reported a man standing on the shoulder "soaking wet and drawing blueprints in the sand."

According to the police report, Ricky James Hollowell, 33, was found barefoot, severely sunburned, and wearing only swim trunks. He told deputies he had been "taken against his will by a pod of dolphins 3 days ago" and forced to work on what he called "an underwater construction project."

According to Hollowell and the police report:

Hollowell claimed the dolphins approached him while he was swimming off Fort Myers Beach and "escorted him to a site approximately 40 feet below the surface" where they needed help building structures

He told officers the dolphins communicated through "a series of clicks that he eventually learned to interpret" and that the project foreman was a dolphin he referred to as "Gerald"

When asked how he breathed underwater for 3 days he said "Gerald handled that. I didn't ask questions. You don't question Gerald"

He had drawn an elaborate blueprint in the sand that deputies described as "detailed enough to be concerning" including what appeared to be condos, a town square, and a recreation center

He told officers he was released because "the dolphins were satisfied with his work" but that Gerald said "they'd be back for phase two"

Responding deputy Shawn Oakley told reporters: "I've been with the sheriff's office 11 years. The blueprints were the part that got me. He had zoning."

Hollowell was transported for medical evaluation. Gerald was unavailable for comment.

Best Comment - Soooo the abduction was premeditated? You know, on porpoise. 

BUT.....Damnit, it's an online rumor.

The Lee County Sheriff’s Office is setting the record straight, saying no one was abducted by Dolphins. 

Seems like April 1st came early.
