A Little Bit of Awesome: 8/31/18 Edition

A guy in California went surfing on a first date with a doctor, and had a heart attack. His date did CPR on him, and he was eventually revived in the ambulance. So their first kiss ended up being her giving him CPR. They’re still together now, and they started a charity called Paddle4Good. And the whole thing is on video, because some composer was there on the beach trying to get a time-lapse shot of some seagulls.


A humpback whale scared the crap out of a bunch of tourists in California this week. They were convinced it was “planning something.” Then it landed on their boat. Check it out RIGHT HERE. Slight WARNING. There may be some salty language in this. (I honestly don’t remember. But hey, if that is going to ruin your day, don’t click it. Just know it was awesome.)


Jeff Goldblum is awesome. Even when he’s eating really hot wings. Plus, he likes it when you call him Daddy…. or even Zaddy. Seriously.


LEGO will always be awesome. But when you build a real, drivable Bugatti out of LEGO Technic, yeah. Super Awesome.
