Why No One Taunted Tyson Twic 😱
Mike Tyson threw the hardest and fastest punches I've ever seen in my life. I don't think anyone has as many knockouts under two minutes
Mike Tyson is also a kind person after beating you up badly. He will help you up off the canvas or check on you to make sure you're OK. #miketyson #boxing
Many years ago I granted permission for a clan of Norwegian settlers to live on Krakenheim -- my bleak North Sea island. Rather than taxing them I assigned caretaker duties and the obligation to offer the firstborn son of every household for ten years' whaling service aboard the Orion.
Unlike malnourished English wretches, Norwegian boys are of fine whaler stock, being long of limb, true of eye, stoic of temperament, and resourceful in the face of Arctic privation.
These grandsons of fjord pirates sometimes ask to be led on coastal raids of England, but so long as the sea runs thick with whales we'll seek our plunder upon Neptune's grey mantle rather than in the cottage of the fattened Saxon -- though I would be lying to claim that a restless old rover never entertains such thoughts.
Plans released for a $16 billion mile-long ship capable of carrying 80,000 people.
The 'Freedom Ship' would be home to about 50,000 people, with space for 10,000 tourists and 20,000 crew members.
"The Freedom Ship is envisioned as a permanently mobile city at sea designed for long-term residence rather than short-term travel," the company says.
The ship would be about 8 times the size of the current largest ship in the world, the Royal Caribbean’s Icon of the Seas.
The plans include a 15,000-seat stadium, schools, colleges, shops, clubs, a water park, a music hall, museums, parks, and more.
The ship, which would run on nuclear, would be too large to dock and would remain in international waters.
Freedom Cruise International says it would go around the world every two to three years.
Insane.
you better not be strutting around topless pretending to be Freddie Mercury in front of some pensioners round the back where the bins are when I get home!!!!

For 300 years, a single tree stood alone in the heart of the Sahara. The most isolated tree on earth. The only tree for 250 miles in any direction.
In 1973, a truck driver hit it.
The Tree of Ténéré was so significant that it was one of the only trees ever marked on a map drawn at a scale of 1:4,000,000.
In a desert the size of a continent, cartographers felt it was too important to leave off.
Caravans navigated by it. Tuareg nomads considered it sacred.
The Tuareg people who passed it on their journeys never used it for firewood or allowed their camels to graze on it.
In a desert where survival demanded using everything available, this single tree was left completely untouched out of reverence.
During a dig near the tree in 1938, researchers found that its roots had reached the water table 33 to 36 metres below the surface.
In 1973, a Libyan truck driver, reportedly drunk, followed the old caravan route and drove directly into the trunk.
His name was never released. The impact shattered the acacia beyond recovery.
The remains were taken to the National Museum of Niger in Niamey, where they are still kept today.
