googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display(‘VN_PG_DTAT_ATF’); }); Someone actually did it…and he’s a hero for it. Moshe Tamssot, a Chicago resident, was poking around on McDonald’s latest advancement in fast food technology — the ‘Create Your Taste’ kiosk — when he discovered he could add a whooping 10 pieces of bacon to his hamburger! Wanting to know just how far he could take the build-a-burger kiosk, he decided to add 10 pieces of every topping available to his “Big Max” burger. But the biggest surprise came when the cashier first tried to ring up the order and the total read $890.80. The confused server decided to check with a manager before realizing that due to a pricing bug, the system had added hundreds of dollars for the different types of cheeses he’d selected. The final total for the Big Max? Just $24.89, which could be the deal of the century when you consider this monstrosity — that had to be carried on two trays, by the way. Wait’ll you see how much it weighed… For those wondering, this tower of beef, cheese, bacon, pickles, salad ingredients, and sauce contained 10 slices of American cheese, 10 slices of sharp white cheddar cheese, 10 slices of pepper jack cheese, 10 pieces of bacon, 10x pickles, 10x red onions, 10x guacamole, 10x tortilla strips, 10x lettuce, 10x tomatoes, 10x jalapeños, 10x grilled onions, 10x grilled mushrooms, 10x mac special sauce, 10x mayo, 5x spicy mayo, 10x sweet BBQ sauce, 10x creamy garlic sauce, 10x mustard, and of course…10x ketchup. Can’t forget about the ketchup! But best of all is the large Diet Coke he added to his order at the end. Read more: http://www.viralnova.com/big-max-burger/
The lengths our friends at the Wildlife Aid Foundation will go to in order to save an animal in need never cease to amaze me. When a baby kestrel fell out of its nest at the top of an enormous tree, Simon and his pals had to call in a highly trained climber so that the baby bird could be returned safely to it’s treetop home. It was a dangerous challenge, but as you’ll see in the video, it was all worth it in the end. I just love seeing how much some people care about animals. So much effort for one tiny little bird, now that’s what I call dedication. Good job, guys! Read more: http://www.viralnova.com/treetop-rescue/
One of the cutest and newest trends among expecting parents is filming surprise pregnancy announcements. Rather than just flat out telling their families about the happy news, they turn these momentous occasions into incredible memories. Cheryl Malik and her husband decided they wanted to do something cute for her parents to reveal the big news, and their approach was far more subtle than most of what we see online. Watch what happens when her parents take a closer look at those new spoons. That’s pure happiness right there. I’m certain that her dad is going to be the greatest grandfather ever — certainly the best one who can also do a wicked Mickey Mouse impression! Read more: http://www.viralnova.com/pregnancy-spoons/
The United States Air Force Band wanted to bring some holiday cheer to visitors at the Smithsonian’s National Air and Space Museum. Starting with a single cellist, more and more musicians joined in on the festive flash mob, swelling to a total of 120 band members performing a four-minute arrangement of “Jesu, Joy of Man’s Desiring/Joy to the World.” Are you ready to get the chills? One can only imagine what it must have been like to witness this beautiful moment in person! Not only was that a great holiday surprise, it was also a breathtaking performance by an incredibly talented group of airmen and women. Read more: http://www.viralnova.com/smithsonian-flash-mob/
If there’s one thing that cute dogs Maymo and Penny love more than anything else, it’s playing around in leaves. Whether it’s the exciting crunch noise that the huge piles make under their little paws, or the great smells that they keep discovering, these two adorable dogs absolutely love every single minute of jumping around in the fall foliage. There’s just one problem, though…their favorite time of year only comes around so often. Watch as the two cuties wait around for the leaves to change in this one month time-lapse video. Then watch as they finally get to have some fun! Maymo and Penny are just the cutest. I love how their ears blow in the wind! Read more: http://www.viralnova.com/dogs-in-leaves/
There are few tasks more infuriating than trying to remove rust from just about anything. That’s exactly why this laser is pretty much the best tool I’ve ever seen. This amazing device is called the P-Laser QF-1000. Like its much larger counterparts, the 1,000-watt handheld tool is meant for industrial applications, like preparing metal for robotic welding or removing residue from manufacturing molds. However, it also does an excellent job when it comes to making rust disappear right before your very eyes. googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display(‘VN_PG_DCBP_ATF’); }); Just watch this mesmerizing video of the laser in action. I could stare at this all day, honestly. But if you’re thinking about getting one of these for yourself, know that it’ll cost you a cool $50,000. I’ll pass.

The bond between mother and child is one of the strongest things on Earth. It’s hard to put into words what this mother dog must be going through. Trapped under an Israeli building are her litter of puppies that got swept up in a sudden flood. But amazingly, she risks it all to save her little babies. Watch as the brave mom is seen frantically waiting as soldiers dig a whole under the building as her little ones cry out for help. She’s then seen rescuing one of the pups before the dramatic footage ends. The video was posted to Facebook by Israeli animal rescue group Let The Animals Live, who report that the dog was able to save seven of her 12 trapped puppies. The group is now turning to the public for help adopting them out. Read more: http://www.viralnova.com/dog-saves-puppies/
Normally, dogs sprint for the door when they hear the word “walk,” super excited to go outside for a bit. But not Zeus. He’s much happier when he hears the word “bath.” According to his owner, the stubborn husky loves nothing more than to take baths and play in the water. Often, he even lies in the tub and begs for the water to be turned on. On this occasion, Zeus’ mom made it quite clear to him that it wasn’t bath time and that they were going out for a walk. That’s when the pup threw a full-blown toddler-style temper tantrum, full of whimpers and howls. It’s okay, Zeus, I feel your pain. Maybe if you make sure to get extra dirty during your walk you’ll get that bath! Read more: http://www.viralnova.com/husky-bathtub/
googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display(‘VN_PG_DTBT_ATF’); }); Everyone has their own happy place, and for Chris the pup, that place is a kiddie pool full of his favorite toys. Seriously, just look at his blissful little face as he lives his best life in a pile of tennis balls. That is the face of a pup living the dream. There’s nowhere he’d rather be! I just love his pink tongue hanging out of that goofy grin stretched across his face. Chris certainly looks like he’s found canine heaven. Read more: http://www.viralnova.com/tennis-ball-dog/
Last year, the heartwarming story of 11-year-old Bella Burton and her Great Dane service dog, George, took the world by storm. Because Burton suffers from a progressive disease known as Morquio Syndrome, doctors thought she’d spend the rest of her life clinging to crutches. Then she met her helpful, gentle giant at The Service Dog Project. Recently, the little sweetheart decided she wanted to say “thank you” to George. With the help of BarkBox, they gave him the best day a dog could imagine, complete with treats and pampering! What a wonderful friendship these two share. Everyone involved in making George’s day so special deserves a “thank you” day of their own. Read more: http://www.viralnova.com/thanks-george/
