In December 2004, a guy named Gary Brolsma uploaded a video called "Numa Numa Dance" to the site Newgrounds.
People started sharing it everywhere, and it ended up becoming one of the very first videos to go massively viral on the internet.

This is K9 Valor. He saved 47 soldiers. He survived a suicide bomber, then went on to stop three more, fighting tooth against knife. In the end, he placed himself between an explosion and his handler.
The blast shattered half his face. He lost his left eye and ear. He was flown to Germany, where surgeons worked to rebuild his jaw.
At the Pentagon, he was honored with a standing ovation that lasted over eight minutes.

Scientists have identified a reversal of the long-standing Flynn effectโthe roughly 200-year trend of rising average intelligence (measured via IQ and cognitive tests) across generations.
For the first time in modern recorded history, Generation Z (born roughly 1997โ2012) shows lower performance than previous generations in key cognitive domains, including attention, memory, literacy, numeracy, executive function, problem-solving, and general IQโdespite spending more years in formal education than ever before.
Neuroscientist and educator Dr. Jared Cooney Horvath, PhD, MEd, testified before the U.S. Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation on January 15, 2026, highlighting this shift. In his written testimony, he stated that cognitive development in children across much of the developed world has stalled or reversed over the past two decades, with declines evident in international assessments (e.g., PISA, TIMSS) and other large-scale data starting around the mid-2000s and accelerating post-2010.
Horvath attributes the primary driver not to reduced schooling, but to the widespread integration of digital screens and educational technology (EdTech) in classrooms. He argues that human brains evolved for deep, focused learning through face-to-face interaction and sustained attention, not fragmented skimming or constant task-switching encouraged by devices.
Key points from his testimony include:
- Teens now spend over half their waking hours on screens, with significant portions in school involving computers or tabletsโoften leading to off-task behavior and shallower processing.
- Evidence from meta-analyses and national/international studies shows a consistent pattern: higher classroom screen exposure correlates with weaker outcomes in reading, math, science, and higher-order reasoning.
- Digital tools may aid narrow, repetitive skill practice in controlled settings, but in core academic contexts, they tend to reduce depth of understanding, retention, and critical thinking.
Horvath describes this as a "structural mismatch" between human cognition and how digital platforms are designed (to capture and fragment attention), warning that unchecked EdTech adoption risks long-term harm to workforce skills, innovation, and societal reasoning.

Graham Hancock just broke down bombshell evidence of ancient cities in the Amazon Rainforest.
โThe veil is being pulled back โฆ โ
โThere are roadways that run for 100 km.โ
And LiDAR scans reveal โthousandsโ of ancient structures.
โThese geoglyphsโvery precise rectangles, triangles, circles, squares.โ
โWhatโs it doing there in the Amazon?โ
โThereโs absolutely no doubt that the Amazon once supported a population of millions.โ
โWith extraordinary clever management of rainforest soils by creating a man-made soil that they call terra preta.โ
โWe are having to completely reconceive the Amazon.โ
โIt was thought of as a pristine rainforest, which a few human beings wandered around aimlessly and hunting.โ
โNow, we know that it was the homeland of a very large population.โ
โWho lived in city-sized communities.โ
โWho joined those communities with long, straight roadways.โ
โWeโre beginning to see a completely untold story in the Amazon.โ
