World Record, A Life Well Lived And A Rescued Cat
1. A guy from Egypt just broke two world records for the longest underwater swim using a single breath . . . over 250 feet using flippers, and over 185 feet without flippers. But here’s the amazing part: He did it with one leg. He lost his left leg in a motorcycle accident six years ago.
2. What a life this woman lived: Mimi Reinhardt just passed away on Friday at the age of 107. She was Oskar Schindler’s secretary and the one who actually typed out what became known as “Schindler’s List.” Together, they helped save hundreds of Jews in World War Two by designating them as essential workers.
3. Five people came together to rescue a kitten that had gotten trapped in a drainpipe outside a home in Cleveland, and then gave it CPR to save its life. Two workers from Kamm’s Cat Guardians, two people from local news station WKYC, and an employee from a local Home Depot spent hours trying to rescue the kitten from the pipe. Once they finally retrieved the kitten, they realized it wasn’t breathing and starting performing CPR as they rushed her to a veterinarian, where she was revived. The kitten, named Matilda, is now in foster care.
