  • Harrowing Final words of ‘Grizzly Man’ before he and girlfriend were eaten alive by bear

    Harrowing Final words of ‘Grizzly Man’ before he and girlfriend were eaten alive by bear

    In 2003, Timothy Treadwell, a passionate bear enthusiast, and his girlfriend, Amie Huguenard, met a tragic end when they were eaten alive by a bear in Alaska. The chilling final moments of their lives have since been revealed, providing a terrifying look at what happened in the hours leading up to their deaths.

    Treadwell, originally from New York, had dedicated much of his life to living with bears. He became well-known for documenting his summers in Alaska’s Katmai National Park, where he lived among the grizzly bears. His fascination with these animals began when he was young, accompanying his family on camping trips to Alaska. Over the years, his love for bears grew stronger, and he often interacted closely with them, touching and playing with them. Eventually, he made the decision to live among the bears every summer.

    Despite repeated warnings about the dangers, Treadwell continued his annual visits until 2003. It was then that he and Amie were tragically attacked by a bear, just hours before they were set to fly home. The attack was captured on audio, as the couple didn’t have time to remove the camera lens, leaving behind six long minutes of horrifying audio.

    The Chilling Audio of Their Deaths

    The audio begins with Amie asking if the bear is still nearby. Treadwell can then be heard screaming, “Get out here! I’m getting killed out here!” Amie rushes to help him, and the sound of the tent zipper is heard as she exits, telling him to “play dead.”

    Amid frantic screaming, the audio captures the bear releasing its grip on Treadwell, allowing Amie to rush over to assist him. However, the bear quickly attacks again, this time biting down on Treadwell’s head. Desperate, Treadwell screams for Amie to “hit the bear.”

    Amie encourages him to “fight back” as she attempts to defend him with a frying pan. After a series of screams, the recording ends, capturing the couple’s last moments.

    The Discovery of Their Bodies

    When Willy Fulton, the pilot scheduled to pick them up, landed at Katmai National Park, he immediately knew something was wrong. Normally, Treadwell and Amie would be waiting at the shore, but that day there was an unsettling silence. Instead, he found a bear standing on top of a pile of human remains.

    The couple’s tent was found torn apart, and their unopened evening snack was nearby. Rangers discovered part of Treadwell’s head and other remains in a mound of grass, mud, and twigs about three feet high.

    Treadwell’s life and tragic death were later documented in the 2005 film Grizzly Man, directed by Werner Herzog. The documentary explores his unique relationship with the bears and the devastating events that led to his and Amie’s deaths.

  • Inside the world’s first AI sex doll brothel – with one BIG difference

    Inside the world’s first AI sex doll brothel – with one BIG difference

    AI is a growing concern for many of us, with fears that it might replace jobs across different industries. It seems even the oldest profession is not immune to this shift. In the latest development in sex work, prostitutes are being replaced by ‘intergalactic pleasure dolls,’ which are equipped with flexible limbs, a golden heart, and an openness to almost anything.

    These dolls even skip the usual condom requirement.

    The Rise of Sex Robots

    Sex robots were once the stuff of science fiction, featured in films like Blade Runner, Ex Machina, and Subservience starring Megan Fox. But as silicone dolls have become more realistic, they are increasingly seen as a less complicated, viable alternative to human sex work.

    Megan Fox played a robot called Alice in the sci-fi thriller Subservience, and strips off in a set of jaw-dropping sex scenes

    In their new book Sex Work Today, authors Bernadette Barton, Barbara G. Brents, and Angela Jones highlight the creation of the world’s first AI sex worker, designed to fulfill every desire while also teaching clients about consent.

    Meet Kokeshi, the AI prostitute working at the Cybrothel in Berlin. She’s marketed as having a taste of peaches and a scent like summer rain. With facial piercings and an impressive collection of bondage gear, her goal is to spread “pleasure consciousness” in a guilt-free setting.

    Kokeshi isn’t alone. She shares the space with other dolls, including Paris, a “hyperfeminine girl next door”; Guy Rider, a sultry bisexual male doll; Mistress Oxana, a German dominatrix; and soon, Hito, a manga-inspired pixie doll with pointy ears, along with a blue-skinned alien doll.

    Kokeshi is marketed as tasting like peaches and smelling like summer rain

    Kokeshi’s Unique Design

    When clients enter the room, Kokeshi can be seen basking under a heater to warm her silicone skin. She’s dressed in a curly blue wig, a plastic skirt, and her galactic blue eyes are focused on a bowl of condoms hanging above the bed.

    What sets Kokeshi apart from other sex doll brothels is her owner, Alexis Smiley Smith, who has designed Kokeshi to have “a real personality.” Kokeshi interacts with clients through strategically placed cameras and microphones, offering what Smith refers to as an “analog AI” experience.

    Smith, who is a former escort, shares that her offsite room is packed with outdated equipment from the early 1990s, including a small table, monitors, a headset, and a laptop. The whole setup may look retro, but it serves its purpose.

    Consent and Connection in the Digital Age

    Smith explains that she initially feared her clients would be the stereotypical “incel-type men” coming to her for creepy encounters. However, she took a different approach by designing Kokeshi with feminist values and a mission to promote consent.

    Kokeshi boasts a wide array of bondage gear, and has a mission 'to spread pleasure consciousness in a shame-free environment'

    Kokeshi’s interactions are built around a clear emphasis on consent. Smith says she often takes charge by instructing clients to undress, sit next to Kokeshi, or touch her arms and collarbone. She emphasizes that “lube is important” and uses phrases like “Yes, you can touch me there, thank you for asking.” The goal is to reward consent and reinforce its importance even in this context. Smith adds, “Yes, I simulate orgasms, moan, and say names. After all, this is sex work.”

    The AI experience has attracted clients who may feel too shy to explore their fantasies with human partners. Smith recalls one couple where the wife wanted to explore a threesome, but the husband was hesitant. By using Kokeshi’s voice, Smith helped ease the tension, allowing the couple to enjoy the experience without pressure.

    Smith reflects, “As a sex worker, I don’t just sell sex—I sell connection.” Whether it’s sharing a laugh over a champagne cork hitting the ceiling or engaging in meaningful conversation, she believes emotional connection is key.

    The Future of AI and Sex Work

    Scholars predict that by 2045, one in ten young adults may have had a sexual encounter with a humanoid robot. While the future role of doll brothels in the sex tech world is uncertain, one thing is clear: human connection will always be in demand.

    Fearing that her clients would be 'incel-type men', Smith created Kokeshi with feminist ideals and a 'queer' personality

    Despite the rise of sex dolls, Smith remains confident that they won’t replace human sex workers. She points out, “There’s something about spontaneous human connection that people crave, maybe even more than sex itself.” While dolls can maintain any sexual position, it’s the human element that encourages exploration and connection.

    “Dolls will never replace human sex workers,” Smith says. “The real question is, where will their place be?”

  • Johnny Depp, 61, Responds To Rumours He’s Dating 21-Year-Old Jenna Ortega

    Johnny Depp, 61, Responds To Rumours He’s Dating 21-Year-Old Jenna Ortega

    Johnny Depp has finally addressed the rumors swirling around the possibility of him dating 21-year-old Jenna Ortega.

    In the fast-moving world of celebrity gossip, rumors about relationships can spread quickly. Recently, the rumor mill erupted with talk of a romance between Depp, the 61-year-old Hollywood star, and Ortega, the 21-year-old actress known for her role in Netflix’s Wednesday.

    How the Rumors Started

    The speculation began when the popular celebrity gossip page Deuxmoi posted claims that Depp and Ortega had been seen together. This quickly grabbed the attention of both fans and media outlets, who speculated about the nature of their relationship.

    Johnny Depp

    The idea of this unlikely pairing, given the significant age gap between the two, quickly became a topic of interest. Now, Depp has spoken out, addressing the rumors directly.

    Johnny Depp’s Past Relationships

    Depp, at 61, remains one of the most talked-about figures in Hollywood, not just because of his career, but also because of his past relationships, which have been highly publicized.

    His most well-known long-term relationship was with French singer, model, and actress Vanessa Paradis. The couple was together from 1998 until their separation in 2012. They share two children, Lily-Rose and Jack. Despite their split, the couple remained largely private about their personal life, and they have reportedly maintained a friendly relationship since parting ways.

    Depp’s relationship with actress Amber Heard, however, was far more turbulent. The two met during the filming of The Rum Diary in 2009, married in 2015, and divorced in 2016. Their marriage was filled with public legal battles, including Heard filing for a restraining order against Depp. In 2022, Depp won a defamation lawsuit against Heard after she published a 2018 op-ed in The Washington Post.

    Depp’s Relationship with Yulia Vlasova

    Adding fuel to the fire, Depp has also been linked to another woman recently: Russian model and beautician Yulia Vlasova. Vlasova, who lives in Prague, is said to have met Depp in 2021 at the 55th Karlovy Vary International Film Festival.

    Yulia Vlasova

    Though Depp and Vlasova have not confirmed any official relationship, there have been some signs that suggest a romantic connection. Vlasova shared several social media posts that hinted at their possible romance. This sparked further public attention, especially since Vlasova resembles Heard, causing fans to make comparisons. The significant age difference, with Depp being much older than Vlasova—who is reportedly in her late twenties—also led to widespread speculation and concern among Depp’s fans.

    The Jenna Ortega Rumors

    However, it’s not just Vlasova who has been linked to Depp. The latest rumors involving Jenna Ortega have caused even more online commentary.

    As speculation about a relationship between Depp and Ortega gained momentum, Depp was forced to respond to these claims. Ortega, for her part, took to Instagram to address the rumors herself, dispelling any false claims. In an Instagram story, Ortega stated: “This is so ridiculous I can’t even laugh. I have never met or worked with Johnny Depp in my life. Please stop spreading lies and leave us alone.”

    Jenna Ortega

    After Ortega’s statement, Depp’s representatives also stepped in, addressing both the dating rumors and speculation that Depp might be involved in Beetlejuice 2, the upcoming sequel to the 1988 film directed by Tim Burton, in which Ortega is reportedly starring.

    Depp’s Official Statement

    Depp’s team released a statement clarifying the situation: “Mr. Depp has no personal or professional relationship with Ms. Ortega whatsoever. He has never met her or spoken to her. He is not involved in any project with her, nor does he intend to be. He is appalled by these baseless and malicious rumors that are intended to harm his reputation and career.”

    This statement not only debunked the dating rumors but also directly addressed the speculation about Depp’s involvement in Beetlejuice 2. Depp’s team made it clear that Depp has no connection to Ortega, professionally or personally, and that he would not be joining her in the upcoming film.

    This marks the end of the rumors linking Depp and Ortega, but the public’s curiosity about Depp’s personal life, especially after his very public relationships, seems unlikely to die down any time soon.

  • Woman Who Was Kicked Out Of Store Over Her Shorts Says She Was Bullied For Being ‘Too Hot’

    Woman Who Was Kicked Out Of Store Over Her Shorts Says She Was Bullied For Being ‘Too Hot’

    A woman who was reportedly kicked out of a store because her shorts were too short is now hitting back at her critics, saying she was bullied for being “too hot.”

    It’s generally understood that when it comes to other people’s clothing choices, it’s best to keep your opinions to yourself. However, many establishments have specific dress codes in place, deciding what is considered acceptable and what isn’t.

    Now, a woman’s incredibly short shorts have sparked a big online debate. While she believes she was being unfairly targeted for being “too hot,” many people on social media have a different take on what actually happened.

    The Incident That Sparked Controversy

    Kerolay Chaves, a woman from Brazil, took to Instagram to express her frustration about being censored for her revealing outfit.

    Kerolay Chaves

    “I just got home from the supermarket and was harassed for wearing ‘too short clothes’,” she wrote in her post, translated from Portuguese to English. “Some people looked at me with prejudice, others cursed me, and finally, I was expelled from the place. Do you believe it? I think it’s absurd for us women to still be treated that way just because we dress the way we want. The truth is that we go through this because we are too hot.”

    Kerolay also shared a photo of the outfit that apparently caused all the trouble, which featured denim shorts that were cut extremely short, almost resembling underwear.

    Public Reaction: Support for the Store Staff

    Despite her post, the majority of responses sided with the store staff, criticizing Kerolay’s outfit.

    “No need to go to a supermarket dressed like that,” one person commented. “You are embarrassing decent people who are often there with children.”

    Kerolay Chaves

    Another person joked, saying: “I guess the same thing would happen if a shirtless man showed up.”

    Some people also questioned the authenticity of her story.

    Kerolay Chaves

    One commenter wrote: “Clearly, this is for engagement and Instagram likes. She never went to the supermarket like this. Those who follow the stories know. I’m sorry, but this can’t help you.”

    Another added: “Stop using serious issues for engagement. It’s not prejudice – it’s cluelessness.”

    Some users even pointed out that Kerolay had time to take a photo before she was supposedly kicked out. “She even had time to take a picture before being kicked out,” one commenter noted.

    Skepticism Over the Entire Story

    Others were more skeptical about the entire situation, with one person suggesting: “There’s a piece of clothing in the cart… I don’t think she entered the market like that. Maybe she covered the bottom part and just took the photos to post them with a controversial caption for engagement. It seems like she didn’t get kicked out at all. The market looks empty.”

    It seems this incident has sparked a larger conversation online, with many questioning whether Kerolay was actually kicked out or if it was all part of a strategy to gain attention on social media.

  • Jada Pinkett Smith Admits She Had An Affair With The Most Unexpected Celebrity

    Jada Pinkett Smith Admits She Had An Affair With The Most Unexpected Celebrity

    Jada Pinkett Smith has recently opened up about having an affair with a celebrity most people wouldn’t expect.

    Jada, 52, is a well-known American actress, singer, and talk show host, recognized for her roles in films like The Nutty Professor, the Madagascar animated movies, and Girls Trip.

    Since 1997, she has been married to the Hollywood icon Will Smith, with whom she shares two children: Jaden, 26, and Willow, 23.

    The Media Scrutiny on Their Marriage

    Over the years, Jada and Will’s marriage has faced intense public scrutiny. Their relationship made global headlines in 2022 when Will slapped comedian Chris Rock during the Oscars.

    Jada Pinkett Smith, Will, Willow and Jaden Smith.

    It all started when Rock, who was hosting the event, made a joke about Jada’s shaved head, comparing her to Demi Moore’s look in G.I. Jane (1997).

    Jada had previously opened up about living with alopecia, a condition that causes hair loss. After Rock’s comment, Will walked up on stage and slapped him, shocking the audience. Upon returning to his seat, Will yelled: “Keep my wife’s name out of your f***ing mouth.”

    Despite the dramatic incident, the night continued with Will winning the Best Actor award for his role in King Richard. However, the slap overshadowed what should have been the highlight of his career.

    Following the altercation, Will was banned from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences for 10 years. The organization stated that the awards ceremony was “overshadowed by the unacceptable and harmful behavior” displayed by Will.

    Another Scandalous Moment: Jada’s Affair

    But the Oscars incident wasn’t the only controversy the couple has faced. In fact, an even bigger scandal had already occurred before the Oscars in 2020.

    Jada Pinkett Smith on Red Table Talk.

    Between 2018 and 2023, Jada hosted a talk show called Red Table Talk on Facebook, alongside her mother, Adrienne Banfield-Norris, and daughter Willow. The trio often interviewed guests and discussed a variety of topics.

    One of the most talked-about moments came in 2020 when Jada and Will sat down for a candid conversation. During this episode, Jada admitted to having an affair with August Alsina, a 31-year-old hip-hop and R&B singer.

    Will Smith on Red Table Talk.

    Jada explained: “It all started with him just needing some help, me wanting to help his health, his mental state.”

    She added that the family initially offered support to August for his health issues. “We found all those different resources to help pull him through, and from there, you and I were going through a very difficult time,” she said.

    Jada clarified that she and August had since ended their relationship.

    Permission and the Truth About the Affair

    During the Red Table Talk episode, the couple addressed rumors suggesting that Will had given Jada permission to have the affair. Jada set the record straight, saying, “One of the things I want to clear up that was kind of swirling in the press was you giving permission, which the only person who can give permission in that particular circumstance is myself.”

    August Alsina

    She explained further, “But what August was actually trying to communicate – because I could actually see how he would perceive it as permission because we were separated amicably – I think he also wanted to make it clear that he’s not a homewrecker, which he’s not.”

    A Shocking Revelation in 2023

    Then, in 2023, Jada dropped another bombshell about her marriage.

    Jada Pinkett Smith on Today.

    In a primetime NBC News special with Hoda Kotb, she revealed that she and Will had been living “completely different” lives since 2016. “I made a promise that there will never be a reason for us to get a divorce,” she shared. “We will work through whatever. And I just haven’t been able to break that promise.”

    In a separate interview with People magazine, Jada added, “We’re still figuring it out. We’ve been doing some really heavy-duty work together. We just got deep love for each other, and we are going to figure out what that looks like for us.”

    Will later addressed these revelations in an email to The New York Times, writing, “When you’ve been with someone for more than half of your life, a sort of emotional blindness sets in, and you can all too easily lose your sensitivity to their hidden nuances and subtle beauties.”

  • People Believe An Old Photo Might Be ‘Proof Of Time Travel’ As It Shows Child Holding ‘iPad’

    People Believe An Old Photo Might Be ‘Proof Of Time Travel’ As It Shows Child Holding ‘iPad’

    A fascinating photo from 1941 has gone viral, leaving people convinced that it might be proof of time travel. The image shows a young boy seemingly holding what looks like an iPad—a device that wouldn’t exist for another 69 years.

    As Apple gears up to unveil its latest tech innovations, this resurfaced debate about time travel couldn’t have come at a more ironic moment. Despite there being no scientific evidence that time travel is possible, the concept continues to capture people’s imagination, especially on social media.

    Time Travel: Fact or Fiction?

    Time travel has been a hot topic for decades, and 2024 is no different. Social media platforms regularly breathe new life into the idea, fueling endless discussions. Even some scientific studies have added to the intrigue.

    For example, a study published in Nature Physics explored how time might affect the structure of materials like glass. Researchers found that time doesn’t always behave in a straight line, leaving room for speculation about its reversibility.

    Still, the scientific community hasn’t reached a consensus. In fact, just last November, experts outright dismissed the possibility of time travel. This conflicting information only seems to make the mystery more alluring.

    The Photo That’s Sparking Questions

    Recently, an old photograph posted on Reddit reignited the debate. The image, taken in 1941 by photographer Edwin Rosskam, shows a group of teenagers lined up outside a Chicago cinema during World War II.

    While the photo offers a fascinating glimpse into life in the early 1940s, one detail has captured everyone’s attention. A boy on the far right of the image appears to be holding an object that some believe could be an iPad.

    Spot the kid with the iPad?

    Reddit Reacts

    The idea of a 1941 iPad seems far-fetched, given that Apple didn’t release the device until 2010. But Reddit users were quick to jump on the time-travel theory.

    “iPad-carrying moviegoer, all the way to the right,” one user commented. Another chimed in, saying the photo was “proof of time travel.”

    Not everyone was convinced, though. Some Reddit users offered more down-to-earth explanations.

    One person joked, “Just getting that early practice pirating films is all. Back in the day of early film, ushers scanned the audience for pens and notepads to prevent bootleg recreations of the film.”

    Another user suggested a more wholesome theory: “It’s most likely The Holy Bible. They have their Sunday best on, bless their wee souls. Yes, I definitely think that’s what it is.”

    The Ongoing Fascination

    Whether it’s a case of mistaken identity or something more mysterious, the photo has once again sparked curiosity about time travel. While the scientific evidence might not be there, it’s clear that the idea remains a favorite topic for debate, fueled by photos like this one and the limitless creativity of internet users.

    For now, the mystery of the “1941 iPad” remains unsolved. But if nothing else, it’s a fun reminder of how history, technology, and imagination can collide in the most unexpected ways.

     

  • The Most Isolated Place On Earth Where Astronauts In Space Are The Nearest People To You

    The Most Isolated Place On Earth Where Astronauts In Space Are The Nearest People To You

    Tucked away in the endless expanse of the Pacific Ocean lies a spot so remote that the closest humans aren’t even on Earth—they’re orbiting hundreds of miles above, aboard the International Space Station.

    If you’ve ever dreamed of escaping the chaos of daily life, this location might sound tempting. In a world where rising costs and endless responsibilities weigh heavily, the idea of complete solitude has an undeniable appeal. But don’t pack your bags just yet—this place is as harsh as it is isolated, with biting winds and freezing temperatures that make survival a serious challenge.

    Welcome to Point Nemo

    This secluded sanctuary, officially known as the “Oceanic Pole of Inaccessibility,” is better recognized by its more common name: Point Nemo.

    Positioned in the middle of the world’s largest ocean, Point Nemo is the farthest point from any landmass. Its nearest neighbor, Ducie Island, part of the Pitcairn Islands, is 2,688 kilometers (1,670 miles) away—and even that island is completely uninhabited.

    If you head north from Point Nemo, you won’t find anyone for miles. Going south will lead you to Maher Island in Antarctica, and venturing northeast might bring you to Motu Nui Island, a barren outcrop near Easter Island.

    Point Nemo is equidistant from these three land points, which means no matter which direction you swim, you’ll face the same staggering isolation.

    A Place of Absolute Solitude

    The essence of Point Nemo’s remoteness lies in its complete detachment from human habitation. The only “neighbors” you’ll have are astronauts aboard the International Space Station (ISS) as it orbits 400 kilometers (about 250 miles) above the Earth.

    It’s closest neighbors are the astronauts in the International Space Station.

    Point Nemo earned its name in 1992, thanks to Croatian survey engineer Hrvoje Lukatela. Using advanced calculations and mapping tools, he pinpointed its coordinates. The name “Nemo” comes from Latin and means “no one,” a fitting nod to its desolate nature.

    The Spacecraft Graveyard

    Point Nemo’s isolation makes it the perfect spot for decommissioning spacecraft. Since it’s far from any populated areas, satellites and other space debris are sent here to safely crash without endangering lives. Beneath the waves, at depths of nearly 13,000 feet (about two and a half miles), lie the remains of countless space relics.

    In a poetic twist, even the International Space Station will meet its end here. NASA has announced that the ISS will be decommissioned and guided to this watery graveyard around the year 2031, joining the very spot it once orbited as humanity’s closest presence.

    Here’s what you’ll be greeted with.

    Visiting the Unreachable

    For the adventurous souls curious about visiting Point Nemo, the coordinates are 45°52.6S, 123°23.6W. But be warned: this is not a destination for the faint of heart. There’s no hospitality, no infrastructure, and certainly no guarantees of safety. Even satellites falling from the sky could be an unexpected hazard.

    So, while the idea of escaping to the most isolated place on Earth might sound appealing, the reality of Point Nemo serves as a reminder of nature’s unforgiving vastness. Sometimes, solitude comes at a price.

  • Man who lived at the bottom of the sea for two weeks explained scariest thing he saw

    Man who lived at the bottom of the sea for two weeks explained scariest thing he saw

    A guest on The Joe Rogan Experience shared the terrifying moment he came face-to-face with a massive fish, describing it as being “the size of a cow.”

    Garrett Reisman, an engineer and former NASA astronaut, is someone you could call the real-life equivalent of SpongeBob SquarePants—except instead of flipping burgers, he spent weeks living at the bottom of the ocean.

    Garrett Reisman opened up about life on the seabed

    Reisman recently opened up about his unique experience and the chilling encounter he had while staying 60 feet beneath the surface in a submarine-like home off the coast of Key Largo, Florida.

    Living on the Seabed

    Speaking to Joe Rogan, Reisman described his time underwater, which he said was all in the name of science. He explained that while it sounds adventurous, it came with its own set of challenges—and a few frights.

    One of the more unusual aspects of his underwater stay involved using the toilet. Reisman revealed that he had to swim out to a small underwater gazebo to, as he put it, “go number two.” But there was a catch: fish in the area had become a bit too familiar with this routine.

    Reisman spoke about his terrifying encounter with an underwater beast as he nipped out to use the loo

    “They go there knowing you’re gonna poop?” Rogan asked.

    Reisman laughed and replied, “As soon as you drop in the water at night, it’s like the dinner bell going off because this is feeding time.”

    A Terrifying Encounter

    While discussing life underwater, Reisman shared his most terrifying moment, which happened during one of his nighttime trips to the underwater restroom.

    “You’re in the pitch-black Atlantic Ocean, 60 feet down, with no scuba tank,” he began, painting a vivid picture of the eerie environment. “The sound of the ocean is lapping against the dome, and you’re staring into this endless black void.”

    Reisman admitted his imagination got the best of him during these moments, recalling scenes from scary ocean movies like Jaws and The Abyss.

    He continued, “After I finished, I put my mask back on, took a big breath, and went down. When I opened my eyes in the darkness, with my flashlight, I saw this huge eyeball right in front of me—about the size of a saucer.”

    The sight of the unblinking eye startled him so much that he panicked and bolted back to his underwater home, screaming as he surfaced.

    His crew rushed to his aid, thinking he’d been bitten by a shark. Instead, Reisman explained the situation, shouting, “Giant f***ing fish!”

    What Was It?

    As it turned out, the creature that had spooked him was a goliath grouper, one of the largest fish species in the ocean.

    These massive creatures can grow up to 8 feet long and weigh as much as 455 kilograms—about the size of a grand piano. With its immense size and saucer-like eyes, it’s easy to see why the encounter left such a strong impression.

    While Reisman’s underwater adventures are undeniably fascinating, his stories serve as a reminder of how mysterious and intimidating the deep sea can be.

    As for anyone considering living underwater, well, you might want to think twice. Even for £1 million, it might not be worth coming face-to-face with creatures from the abyss.

  • Only People with Perfect Vision Can Find Animals Holding Empty Glasses

    Test your sight and observational skills by studying this extremely busy image of a group of animals celebrating. Can you spot the three thirsty creatures who are holding empty glasses?

    As the year comes to a close, a group of animals has gathered to celebrate in a festive, chaotic scene. But this isn’t just a party — it’s a challenge for your vision and observational abilities. Can you spot the three animals whose glasses are empty?

    cartoon of animals having a party and drinking champagne

    The image, created by Hungarian graphic artist Gergely Dudas, known as “thedudolf” on social media, is designed to make you work for the answer. It was shared in celebration of the New Year with the caption: “HAPPY NEW YEAR!! Can you find THREE EMPTY GLASSES?”

    In this bustling scene, a variety of animals, including elephants, foxes, penguins, polar bears, owls, brown bears, and rabbits, are all part of the New Year’s bash. Their close proximity makes the details harder to distinguish, forcing your brain to work harder as you try to identify the animals holding the empty glasses.

    While most of the animals are toasting with champagne flutes, there are three who are obviously very thirsty. Their glasses are empty — but can you find them?

    How to Approach the Challenge

    If you want to increase your chances of success, here are a few tips:

    1. Focus on the shapes: Rather than trying to scan the whole image at once, break it down by focusing on the shapes of the animals and the glasses.
    2. Scan every area carefully: Even seemingly insignificant sections could hold the key. A focused and systematic scan will help you spot the empty glasses.
    3. Trust your instincts: Don’t rush to make conclusions — sometimes the first impressions are misleading.

    The Answer

    Did you find the three animals? Here are the answers:

    animals partying

    • Polar Bear: The first animal with an empty glass is a polar bear, located at the bottom left of the image.
    • Penguin: A penguin with an empty glass is located diagonally to the right of the polar bear.
    • Owl: The third animal, an owl, is perched at the top right corner of the image, holding an empty glass.

    People blown away after learning name for time between Christmas and New Year’s Eve

    The big day is over for another year, but the festive spirit is still in full swing. In fact, many claim that the best part of the holiday season is the in-between period—the few days after Christmas but before New Year’s Eve. But what is this strange time actually called?

    What Is This Time Called?

    After the Christmas frenzy, the days leading up to New Year’s Eve often feel like a limbo—business hours are unpredictable, many of us are still catching up on leftover food, and it’s easy to lose track of what day it is. While this stretch doesn’t have an official name, a couple of terms have emerged to describe it.

    The most common term catching on is “Twixmas”, a playful combination of “betwixt” (meaning between) and “Christmas.” The term has been steadily gaining popularity, particularly on social media, where users have shared their enjoyment of this time of year.

    Twixmas 2024: What To Do Between Christmas And New Year

    On TikTok, one user posted a cozy video of the Twixmas vibe: “Twixmas, my favourite time of year. When the cookies overfloweth and the pajamas stay on around the clock.” The video, featuring festive lights and a hot chocolate being poured, was met with enthusiastic comments like “this is such a vibe” and “who knew Twixmas was a term lol.”

    Another term that has gained traction is “Crimbo Limbo”, which captures the carefree, relaxed nature of this period. People are spending their time lounging in pajamas, indulging in leftovers, and sometimes, eating whatever they want at all hours of the day. On Reddit, one user humorously shared their Twixmas routine: “It’s now the weird time between Christmas & New Year where anything goes: Slices of cold meat for breakfast? Sure! Box of chocolates for lunch? Why not! Liquid dinner? Of course!”

    Why Do People Love Twixmas?

    For many, Twixmas is the best part of the holidays. It’s a time to unwind after the hustle and bustle of the Christmas build-up, when presents have been bought, homes decorated, and the big meal has come and gone. The world seems to slow down as we take a break from the usual routines. It’s an opportunity for some much-needed downtime before the rush of New Year’s Eve celebrations.

    What is Twixmas? An Unusual Festive Expression [EXPLAINED]

    Social media users have embraced this laid-back spirit, with one Reddit user explaining: “This is the only time of year where I legitimately lose track of what day it is.”

    Whether it’s indulging in festive snacks like Ferrero Rocher or enjoying leftover turkey sandwiches, Twixmas is a period of indulgence, relaxation, and no-pressure moments. As business hours become unpredictable and TV channels remain filled with Christmas movies, there’s something comforting about having the time to simply enjoy the leftovers and festivities at a slower pace.

    A Time to Reconnect with the Spirit of Christmas

    Though the official Christmas Day may be over, the days between Christmas and New Year’s offer a gentle conclusion to the holiday season. With the official start of the New Year around the corner, Twixmas is a chance to embrace the stillness, relax in pajamas, and enjoy the little moments before everything goes back to normal.

    In short, Twixmas has become an unofficial holiday season within the holiday season, filled with cozy vibes, indulgent meals, and cherished downtime.

  • Hacker with 30 years’ experience shares the scariest things he’s seen on the dark web

    Hacker with 30 years’ experience shares the scariest things he’s seen on the dark web

    A hacker with three decades of experience has opened up about some of the most terrifying things he has encountered on the dark web.

    The dark web is notorious for being a hidden space, where users can access illegal activities while remaining anonymous. Using complex systems that obscure a user’s true IP address, the dark web has evolved into an online black market for illegal dealings.

    While it’s well-known that the dark web harbors disturbing content, a hacker with over 30 years in the field has shared some of the darkest encounters, so you don’t have to risk exploring it yourself.

    Shocking Stories from the Dark Web

    One of the most infamous cases associated with the dark web is the kidnapping of Chloe Ayling, who was sold on the black market. Along with human trafficking, ransomware groups also operate on the dark web, stealing personal data and blackmailing victims for money in exchange for not releasing it.

    Speaking to VICE, an anonymous hacker with 30 years of experience opened up about his past and the disturbing things he has witnessed. He shared that, in the past, he worked as a ‘black hat’ hacker, meaning he had no ethical code and likely used his skills for malicious purposes. Over time, he shifted to being a ‘white hat’ hacker, someone who works within legal and ethical guidelines to protect against cyber threats.

    As a ‘white hat’ hacker, he now focuses on protecting hospitals and businesses from cyber attacks. He explained, “I hunt the criminals who are targeting hospitals or businesses that I’m protecting.”

    The Dangers of Ransomware Attacks

    Reflecting on his most troubling experiences, the hacker shared, “I’ve watched hospitals get encrypted. People are left with a choice: do I pay to decrypt the data or risk lives?”

    The guy described himself as a ‘white hat’ hacker

    Ransomware attacks were one of his primary concerns. In 2021, he noted a significant rise in such attacks due to their high profitability. He explained that ransomware attacks could reach national levels, often fueled by state-sponsored actors.

    “There are national state actors doing what they need to do because their governments want them to,” he said. “Then, there are criminals just looking for any way to make money, and some individuals simply want to cause chaos.”

    High-Stakes Cybercrime on the Dark Web

    The hacker went on to describe the “high-stakes games” that take place on the dark web. He explained that ransomware attacks can be used as a tool of warfare, saying, “Every single country has reason to weaponize these kinds of attacks. It’s the perfect form of asymmetric warfare.”

    The hacker emphasized that these attacks aren’t just random. There are financially motivated criminals, as well as destructive hackers who attack systems just to cause disruption. He also added that many governments, especially in Western countries, have turned to the white hat hacker community for assistance.

    A Call for Ethical Hacking

    The hacker’s shift from black hat to white hat hacking illustrates the importance of ethical cybersecurity. His transition reflects a broader need for skilled individuals who can protect against the rising threats in the digital age. The dark web continues to be a space of high-risk criminal activity, but with ethical hackers on the lookout, there’s hope for a safer online environment.

  • “Made Over $1 Million”: YouTuber Zara Dar Quits PhD To Become Adult Content Creator

    “Made Over $1 Million”: YouTuber Zara Dar Quits PhD To Become Adult Content Creator

    Zara Dar, a former advocate for women in science and technology, has made a significant career change by quitting her PhD pursuit to become a full-time OnlyFans model. In a YouTube video titled “PhD Dropout to OnlyFans Model,” Dar explained her decision, stating that while it was a difficult choice, she isn’t particularly sad about it. Describing the switch as a “gamble,” Dar emphasized that moving to OnlyFans and content creation full-time felt like a pivotal decision in her life. “Moving on to doing OnlyFans and content creation full-time isn’t just a career choice, it feels kind of like a gamble on the direction of my entire life,” she said.

    Transition from Science and Technology Advocacy

    Dar’s transition from being a strong advocate for women in science and technology to pursuing adult content creation has been met with mixed reactions. Before making the switch, she was known for her YouTube tutorials on machine learning and neural networks, where she had garnered over 1 lakh subscribers. Her previous videos, which were focused on educational content related to STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics), highlighted her passion for teaching and empowering others, especially women, in technical fields.

    The Decision to Leave Academia

    In a follow-up video, Zara Dar expanded on her decision to leave her PhD program, explaining that while money was part of the equation, the state of academia was the primary reason for her departure. She stated, “My PhD was in Engineering. Dropping out of my PhD was my choice. Please watch the full video if you would like to know all the reasons. Money was only part of the story—the state of academia today was the primary reason.” Dar had been doing OnlyFans alongside her PhD for about two years before deciding to pursue it full-time, finding greater fulfillment in content creation rather than academia.

    Zara Dar’s Clarification on Her Heritage

    Following the viral response to her career shift, Dar took to social media to address some confusion about her background. Many people mistakenly assumed she was Pakistani after seeing her video. Dar clarified, “With all due respect, I am not Pakistani. I believe some people are confusing me with a beautiful influencer named ‘Zara Dar.’ I am American, born and raised, with a mixed background: American, Persian, Southern European, Middle Eastern, and Indian.”

    Despite her shift to adult content creation, Dar remains committed to educating others.

Pursuing OnlyFans full-time has given me the freedom to learn and share new content,” she explained. Dar’s decision to embrace content creation has allowed her to explore new avenues for both personal and professional growth while still maintaining her passion for educating others in the technical fields she once championed.

    Addressing Misinformation and Deepfake Content

    Dar also addressed the issue of misinformation and deepfake content circulating online, with many people sharing manipulated videos and images of her. In response, she stated, “Unfortunately, I have seen many people sharing deepfake content of me, and some have mistakenly believed them.” She previously wrote a blog post addressing this issue two years ago, where she warned her followers about the dangers of deepfakes and emphasized the importance of verifying content.

    Mixed Reactions to Career Change

    While Dar has found success and fulfillment in her new career as an OnlyFans model, her decision to leave her PhD program and pursue a completely different path has sparked a range of reactions. Some people have expressed admiration for her willingness to embrace a non-traditional career, while others have criticized her decision, questioning her motivations. Despite the criticism, Dar has remained confident in her choice, asserting that it was a gamble worth taking.

  • Staggering Amount Beyoncé Was Paid by Netflix to Perform at Halftime of Ravens-Texans NFL Game

    Staggering Amount Beyoncé Was Paid by Netflix to Perform at Halftime of Ravens-Texans NFL Game

    Beyoncé reportedly had a massive payday for her halftime performance as part of Netflix’s NFL Christmas Day doubleheader, taking home $20 million for her 13-minute music extravaganza.

    Alongside special guests Shaboozey, Post Malone, and her 12-year-old daughter Blue Ivy, Beyoncé took the field at NRG Stadium in her hometown of Houston at the halfway point of the Ravens’ blowout of the Texans.

    Beyoncé earning more than $1 million per minute for her time on Netflix are just reports and have not been confirmed by either the streaming network or the “Cowboy Carter” singer.

    The $20 million figure comes from social media, with several people claiming the staggering sum is part of a larger deal between Beyoncé and Netflix.

    The performance divided football fans on social media, with some claiming the performance was worthy of the Super Bowl, not a regular season game.

    Others, like Barstool boss Dave Portnoy, hated the halftime show, stating, “Beyoncé has been LOST since Destiny’s Child,” he wrote on X, mentioning the pop group she used to be a part of with Kelly Rowland and Michelle Williams.

    The figure is unconfirmed, but it means Beyoncé earned more than $1 million per minute on stage.

    The 43-year-old star reportedly signed a three-project deal with the streaming giants in 2019, which is now two-thirds done.

    The first part was a documentary that showed her 2019 performance at Coachella, which earned her $20 million.

    Now, the second part has earned her two-thirds of the contract’s earnings. What the final part of her $60 million deal will be is unclear, although some would not mind an encore for Netflix’s next NFL spectacular.

    Beyoncé’s halftime show during the Texas-Ravens games was also her first performance since husband Jay-Z was accused of rape, with a lawsuit accusing the music mogul and disgraced rapper Sean “Diddy” Combs of raping a 13-year-old girl at an MTV Video Music Awards after-party in New York in 2000.

    Jay-Z strenuously denied the allegations, and a lawyer for Diddy, who is currently awaiting trial and behind bars on charges of sex trafficking, racketeering conspiracy, and transportation to engage in prostitution, also denied the accusations.

    It was her first performance since she last hit the stage in October of 2023 to wrap her highly successful Renaissance World Tour at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, Missouri.

    Beyoncé’s Christmas show was her third major showing at halftime of an NFL game.

    She was the solo headliner for the Super Bowl halftime show in 2013 and was a special guest alongside Bruno Mars during Coldplay’s Super Bowl show three years later.

    Performers are not paid to take the stage at halftime during the Super Bowl, relying on the massive publicity that comes with around 100 million watching worldwide.

    Jay-Z has served as the executive producer of the Super Bowl halftime show since 2020, with some calling for him to lose that spot amid the lawsuit.

    On Monday, a source close to the Texas Hold ‘Em singer told The Sun that she is slated to announce her next run of shows in a matter of weeks — and they say it will kick off in Los Angeles in March.

    The insider revealed: “It’s been a very tough few months for Beyoncé but she’s laser-focused on making her upcoming tour a success.

    “The next few weeks are crucial as she will announce a new album and a new tour. The announcement was supposed to happen a couple of weeks ago but it was pushed back,” the source continued.

  • People Horrified After Discovering Eerie Hidden Face In ‘Unsettling’ Group Photo

    People Horrified After Discovering Eerie Hidden Face In ‘Unsettling’ Group Photo

    A seemingly ordinary group photo has sent people into a frenzy after an unsettling hidden face was discovered, leaving many feeling creeped out.

    A Group Photo That’s Far From Normal

    The photo, which shows a group of six hikers posing during a trip, has been circulating online, causing quite a stir. It looks like a typical outdoor snapshot at first—people enjoying a hike with trees and greenery in the background, and other hikers visible further away.

    However, once you spot the hidden face, you won’t be able to unsee it.

    The photo was shared on Reddit by a user, who explained that a friend had sent it to them. The caption read: “A friend of mine sent me this picture from his group of friends in Chile.”

    The Hidden Face

    Here’s the eerie part: there’s actually a seventh person in the photo, but they’re not immediately visible. It’s not until you take a closer look that the unsettling detail appears.

    If you’ve been staring at the photo without seeing it yet, here’s a hint: focus on the bottom left corner.

    Between the two women standing on the left, a mysterious face seems to emerge from the shadows. It’s right there, but it’s so subtle that it’s easy to miss at first.

    Once you spot it, you may feel a chill down your spine.

    The Reactions

    Once people noticed the eerie face, the reactions were intense. One Reddit user admitted, “I’m not exaggerating when I say that when I finally saw it, I got goosebumps and felt genuine fear. Wtf. I believe in ghosts again now.”

    Another commenter shared their shock: “My dumbass was looking at the red thing in the bottom left corner. I thought it was just someone who had been cut out of the picture… then BOOM, I saw it. I ran to hide under the covers.”

    Some users tried to explain the phenomenon more rationally. One said, “It’s just a person who’s also in the group, but their face is hidden by the shadows of the two people around them. The intense blue filter makes it look creepy, but you can see the top of their head and hair in the normal daylight.”

    A Creepy Mystery

    Despite the logical explanation, many users were still unsettled. “It gave me chills, for sure,” one person commented. “Usually, I laugh off these things or assume the photo’s been altered, but this one is different. Once you see it, there’s no unseeing it.”

    Another user pointed out the oddness of the image: “I tried to make sense of it, thinking maybe the guy’s jacket was bunched up or the hair from one of the girls was part of it. But nothing else fits. This is clearly something, or someone, that doesn’t belong there.”
