Hawaii Shark Attack Prince's $200M Estate 13-Year-OldRemains Was NewUntouched to Diving, Made a Big Find Victim Also Had Bear, Rattlesnake Run-Inswas hoping to do as Sebastian Morris
Inevitable but still unwelcome: The US Geological Society says the average daily water level of Great Salt Lake in Utah has dropped to a historic low. The agency tweeted that it recorded a level of 4,191.3 feet above sea level, eclipsing the previous low set in 1964, per the Salt Lake Tribune. Don’t expect the record to stand very long, because the lake typically drops through August and September before rebounding in October. “The new historic low is going to be set this autumn,” says Ryan Rowland of the USGS. While lake levels have been trending lower for years, this year’s drought in Utah delivered the decisive blow in regard to the unwanted record. Snow melt in the spring usually raises the lake level 2 feet. This year? 6 inches.
his father had done. The 13-year-old Florida boy had been captivated by some of the finds his dad uncovered as a commercial diver, including a 300-year-old shipwreck he discovered in the Black Sea in 2019. The father and son set out on a dive trip at St. Andrews State Park near Panama City Beach. Sebastian had only been diving for about six months, which is how long it took him to find treasure. “In the corner of my eye, I see something shine,” he said. He noticed a leather strap, and spent about 10 minutes trying to wrench the object from the sand. Turns out it was a leg—a prosthetic one worth about $9,000. But the story doesn’t end there. Sebastian managed to find the man who lost it.
That would be Sergeant Carter Hess, who lost much of his right leg below the knee while in Afghanistan in 2012.

A Washington Nationals away game in San Francisco could have ended in tragedy were it not for starting pitcher Joe Ross’ doctor dad. While watching his son play the Giants at Oracle Park, Dr. Willie Ross noticed a woman near him in the stands who appeared to be in distress. Dr. Ross, a pediatrician at Stanford Hospital, told the Mercury News, the woman first seemed to signal to a companion that she was okay. When he realized she wasn’t, he approached her and employed the Heimlich maneuver. Two pieces of hot dog were dislodged. However, the woman still seemed distressed. Dr. Ross 6 Shop In RI

The victim, described as an embarrassed but thankful 53-year-old retired nurse, then appeared to recover. Per Sports Illustrated, the doctor shook hands with members of a cheering crowd. Meanwhile, if it seems like Ross kept a cool head, it may be because he’s reportedly done this before--and not just in a hospital setting. San Francisco Chronicle baseball reporter Susan Slusser tweeted following the incident that Ross once saved a stroke victim at a California amateur league field.

both extreme athletes and hamsters alike, but Reza Baluchi’s recent bid to “run” from Florida to New York has come to a frustrating and anticlimactic end. The Flagler County Sheriff ’s Office reported that the 49-year-old washed ashore a beach in St. Augustine, Fla., 30 miles south of where he’d set off the day before in a contraption he calls a “hydropod,” in his quest to make it 1,000 miles north to the Empire State. However, Baluchi “came across some complications” that truncated his journey, the sheriff ’s department noted. The Guardian calls Baluchi’s “strange vessel,” a “barreltype” structure that appears to be held up by flotation devices. The Coast Guard “arrived on scene to take over the case and ensure the vessel/occupant were safe. Baluchi tried to use his hydropod to get from Florida to Bermuda, both in 2016 and in 2014. The Coast Guard had to rescue him both times.
