Workers dangle from 26th floor after woman cuts rope

Two painters were left dangling from the 26th floor of a high-rise in Thailand after a woman cut their support rope.
The woman, a resident of the high-rise condominium, was reportedly angry that she had not been informed before they started the job, according to police report and had been charged with attempted murder.
The workers were left dangling hundreds of feet above the ground when the resident of the building snapped a rope that was supporting them. The 34-year-old woman was said to have done it without any warning. The incident took place October 12.
The video, shared on social media, showed the workers literally hanging on for dear life from the 26th floor of the building as they shout for help, asking the residents to open their windows and let them in.
One of the workers spoke to the media and said that he and his two co-workers were lowering themselves from the 32nd floor when they felt their support rope go loose.
The two workers were finally helped by a resident and her husband. “This incident is shocking and should not happen at all,” the rescuer said.
The woman, whose identity had not been revealed, initially denied having played any part in the act. However, she later confessed when the police showed her surveillance footage and told her fingerprints were found on the rope. – ndtv.com
Cow turns on man harassing dog
A disturbing video of a man harassing a dog took an unexpected turn when a cow turned the tables on him.
Footage shared online captured the man repeatedly pulling the dog up by its neck as the animal yelped and whined in pain.
The man, dressed in a checked shirt and trousers, kept harassing the dog even as it howled miserably. Suddenly, however, he was interrupted by a cow barging into the scene.
The cow was filmed pushing the helpless dog away from the man. Then, before he could react, the cow began attacking the man in what many on the internet termed the perfect example of “instant karma”.
In the video, the cow was seen mauling the man, pushing him to the ground where he rolled around helplessly for a few seconds before the video ended. The footage was shared on Twitter by an Indian Forest Service officer who captioned it simply “Karma”. – ndtv.com
Swimmer attacked by alligator in horrifying video
A horrifying video captured the moment an alligator chased and attacked a swimmer in Brazil. The incident took place at a spot with a lake that is popular with tourists.
The Lago do Amor lake in Campo Grande, however, is off-limit for swimmers due to the presence of alligators, so when Willyan Caetano saw a man enter the prohibited waters, he began filming.
“A man entered the water around 4:40 pm and started swimming in the place, where entry is prohibited,” he said.
His video showed the moment an alligator in the lake began chasing the unlucky swimmer. According to Mr Caetano, the man tried swimming faster in order to escape the oncoming reptile.
“He tried to swim fast to get away, but the alligator managed to reach him and land a violent bite on the man’s arm. He came out of the water with his arm all bloody and very scared, saying he didn’t know there was an alligator,” Mr Caetano said. – ndtv.com
Plane flying over garden drops human waste on man
A man and his garden were left splattered in human excrement dropped from an aircraft in the UK.
The incident took place in the town of Windsor in mid-July but made the news recently after local Councillor, Karen Davies, brought it to the attention of the aviation forum of the Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead.
She said the man’s “whole garden, and garden umbrellas, and him” were splattered in human waste dumped from a plane flying overheard.
John Bowden, the Councillor of Eton and Castle, suggested that warm weather might have had a hand in the incident, causing the excrement to “come out as a more ‘fluidy’ item” rather than a frozen block.
According to reports, the name of the airline responsible for the incident has not been released. Meanwhile, the man who was subjected to its unceremonious dumping of sewage decided not to pursue an insurance claim against the airline. – ndtv.com
TV channel airs porn clip during weather report
Viewers watching the weather forecast in Washington, US, received a bit of a shock after a local news channel accidentally aired a pornographic clip.
KREM, a local CBS-affiliated news outlet based in Spokane, Washington, broadcast the 13-second explicit video during their 6pm newscast.
Meteorologist Michelle Boss was giving a weather update when the porn clip began playing over her shoulder. Neither she, nor her co-anchor, appeared to be aware of the clip.
They both continued their report as the graphic video played out in the background before eventually cutting away to more weather footage.
KREM apologised for the “inappropriate” video during their 11pm broadcast, according to reports.
The Spokane Police Department was investigating the incident after receiving several concerned calls from viewers. –ndtv.com

NASA Astronaut shows how he wears pants in Space: ‘two legs at a time’

Astronauts have a unique way of getting dressed in space. In a fascinating video posted on February 21, NASA chemical engineer, Don Pettit, demonstrated how he puts on his pants aboard the International Space Station. Instead of the traditional one-leg-at-a-time approach, Mr Pettit descended into his floating trousers, essentially jumping into them with both legs at once.
He simply captioned the video, “Two legs at a time.”
The lighthearted video delighted viewers, prompting a flurry of comments and reactions from users who enjoyed the humorous glimpse into life in space. One user wrote, “I thought you were going to land right in them at first. Haha. That might be fun to try.”
Another joked, “This is the real content that I needed! I attempted to recreate this on Earth and well.it didn’t go well.”
A third said, “Missed opportunity to not have the theme from Space Odyssey 2001 playing for this.” A fourth added, “Such a pro! Well done.”

Company threatens to fire employees …..if they don’t get married and have children
A company based in China’s Shandong province caught the attention of government officials after it threatened to fire its single and divorced employees if they remained single by the end of September.
According to a report in South China Morning Post, Shandong Shuntian Chemical Group Co. Ltd., issued a notice to its 1,200-odd employees, emphasising that they work well and establish families.
The notice required single employees aged 28-58, including those divorced, to get married and settle down by the end of September this year. Those who do not by the end of March need to write a self-criticism letter. If they do not get married by the end of June, the company will conduct an “evaluation” of them. If they are still single by the end of September, they will be fired.
The company said the move was intended to promote the spirit and cultural values of “diligence, kindness, loyalty, filial piety, and righteousness”.
As the news went viral, Chinese social media users slammed the decision, stating the company was violating several laws.
“Corporate rules should not override laws or social morals,” one user commented, while others pointed out that the Chinese marriage law guarantees freedom of marriage.
“This crazy company should mind its own business and stay away from the personal lives of employees.”
