A Little Bit of Awesome: 6/22/2020

A parade was thrown for residents of a Fresno nursing home to celebrate Father’s Day safely during the coronavirus. Alicia Bitner was able to see and wave to her father who is also a Vietnam veteran. Check out their full story RIGHT HERE.


Earlier this month, a family in Oklahoma camped out in front of an animal shelter for 27 hours, just to adopt a dog with a heart-shaped patch of hair on its chest. A photo of the dog went viral, and that’s how they saw it. Their full story is RIGHT HERE.


A man named Mohammed Abelhameed Muqbel has set a new Guinness World Record for the largest stack of eggs. It’s THREE.
He identified each egg’s center of mass, and then stacked them exactly so that they’d be able to stand end-over-end. To get the record, they had to remain stacked for five seconds, and all three eggs had to be fresh and free of cracks.
Mohammed has been teaching himself to balance things since he was six years old. He’s 20 now.
