It’s not every day that you get the opportunity to make hundreds of friends at once… But that’s exactly what this friendly lab was thinking when he found a stream chock-full of fish. When he saw his opening to say hello, he quickly leapt into the water! This will surely have you giggling just like the guy who captured the whole adorable dog-fish exchange… While this dog may have just had the time of his life, it’s a certainty the fish didn’t appreciate the intrusion. But considering Fido just wanted to be friendly, no harm no foul, right? Read more: http://www.viralnova.com/dog-water-jump/

The mantis shrimp, if you’re not familiar, is one of the deadliest ocean creatures in its weight class. Your average adult is around 10 inches long and has claws that really pack a punch. Some species of mantis shrimp smash prey with claws that can literally strike with the force of a bullet fired at close range. Other species of mantis shrimp, however, are “spearers.” This means that they wait for unsuspecting fish to swim over their burrows and then, WHAM! They strike out with their claws and grab their prey. It’s a lot more brutal than it sounds. (via Reddit) Nature is intense, and so is the guy who owns this mantis shrimp. Think about it. He’s buying all of these expensive tropical fish so that he can put them inside the tank with his mantis shrimp. That’s twisted. Read more: http://www.viralnova.com/mantis-shrimp-spear/
This weekend, many parts of the U.S. were slammed with record low temperatures for this time of year. What followed the cold plunge was the typical moaning and groaning on social media. While I’m not saying people shouldn’t have the right to complain about the weather, what I want to call for is a little perspective. For example, at least the weather wasn’t an Antarctic “condition one.” A condition one is called when wind speed is over 62 miles per hour, visibility is less than 98 feet, and windchill is below −99 °F. During a condition one, outside travel is not permitted. Curious about what a condition one looks like? Here you go… (via WILX) Just imagine getting caught outside in those conditions. There’s no possible way a human would make it back to safety in one piece. So remember, the next time you’re complaining about the cold, at least it’s not a condition one.

“I’ll just pull back into the garage…Oh, never mind!” is probably what went through this Russian man’s mind a few seconds after he had reversed out of his garage only to be greeted by a massive tornado. The tornado was so powerful, it tore down his garage in a matter of seconds. The whole thing was captured on his dashboard camera, and it’s crazy just how terrifying the footage is. Seriously. My pulse quickened just watching the video. (Source: ViralHog) Toyota 1 – Tornado 0. Guess what they say is true, nothing can kill a Toyota. Read more: http://viralnova.com/storm-garage/
