10 of the craziest, wackiest and strangest people that can be found at Walmart

Everyone shops at Walmart. Thanks to its aggressive pricing, people from all walks of life flock to the store to get a good deal. And that often means some hilarious sights!

Sure, Whole Foods is great and all. But let’s face it, it’s expensive, and it offers far fewer people-watching opportunities than good old Walmart.

Walmart has tons of variety, and that’s not just the products. The people are so, so varied. These 15 people are truly the creme de la creme of Walmart shoppers:

1. At least she got to walk down the aisle

Aisle four to be precise. Are those cookies supposed to be the best man? On to the bakery for some cake!

2. Use the pork, Luke

 

It turns out that Darth Vader looks a lot less intimidating in his weekend clothes. I guess we all need some R and R now and then. Taking over the galaxy is Monday’s problem!

3. Anyone else feeling itchy all of a sudden?

It turns out that the phrase, “If you’ve got it, flaunt it,” means body hair. Who knew!? Is he looking for the shearers?

4. That cashier is going, “Not these two AGAIN!”

 

They must have some wacky adventures. And that’s just inside of Walmart. Does anyone else spy a reality TV show?

5. Why doesn’t everyone do this?

This is way more comfortable than a mask. The only issue is when she tries to place anything in her cart. Back to the drawing board!

6. Life hack: baby harnesses can also be used for livestock

Is it at all surprising that this image comes from Alabama? It kind of looks like the goat is whispering sweet nothings into the woman’s ear. What a nice day out!

7. Does he work for the CDC?

For all we know, this could be the next cutting edge piece of equipment in the fight against coronavirus. If it’s good enough for Santa, then it’s good enough for you. Those gloves also offer a layer of protection.

8. He’ll make a cracking good employee!

Hopefully, he won’t be too cheeky to the manager. Get it? If he gets the job, he’ll be able to buy a belt and everything!

9. Did somebody say conga!?

Maybe the whole store joined in?! This is what’s so great about kids. If there’s no fun, then they make their own fun!

10. Is she buying that?

Don’t take him down the poultry aisle. Also, was it Saint Patrick’s Day or does she always dress like that? Maybe the duck will only go out if she makes an effort to look Irish.

10 Habits That Damage Your Kidneys (Most People Ignore)

The kidneys perform a lot of functions, they release hormones, absorb minerals from the food we consume, and detoxify the body through the urine. Hence, the kidney is known as one of the most vital organs in the body.

  • Eat kidney-supportive foods, such as watermelon, parsley, cilantro, blueberries, onions, cranberries, apples, strawberries, peppers, cabbage, garlic, cauliflower, olive oil
  • Drop weight. Obesity raises the risk of forming kidney cancer
  • Avoid pain killers, especially non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, like ibuprofen, naproxen, aspirin, and acetaminophen
  • Use Epsom salts baths. Such a bath detoxifies the body, removes waste, and boosts the kidneys while improving overall health
  • Take everyday probiotics, as probiotics help your kidneys process waste materials and improve digestive health
  • Sip green juice. Green foods detoxify the whole body

Employee leaps through drive-thru window when he hears children screaming from backseat of car

Working in a fast-food restaurant can be stressful with many having a high turnover rate. The push for speed and to meet customer demands can often cause burnout leaving even the best of workers in a bad mood. One fast-food worker, though, took it upon themselves to go above and beyond the call of duty.

Another day on the job

When 22-year-old McDonald’s employee Pedro Viloria clocked into work one day, he had no idea that he would end up saving a life. He was simply working his job manning the drive-thru at his place of work when he noticed a customer in need.

An off-duty police officer had brought her children to the McDonald’s that Viloria worked at to get breakfast. Pulling up in an SUV. The Miami, Florida mother of two had just ordered her food and was waiting to pull up to the drive-thru window where Viloria waited with her food.

A mother in trouble

Instead of stopping, the vehicle kept going. It was then that Viloria knew something was wrong. As the vehicle rolled past the window, the fast-food worker could hear her kids screaming inside. The driver of the vehicle was having a medical emergency.

“Her kids were screaming, ‘Mother, mother, stop it, mother, what are you doing.’ Viloria told Inside Edition.

A hero to the rescue

Springing into action, Viloria leaped through the open window of the drive-through, in pursuit of the wayward vehicle. The only thought he had was for the safety of the people inside of the SUV.

“I thought, ‘If those kids lose their mother today, that’s going to be tragic,’” Viloria said.

As he caught up to the vehicle, which at this point had come to a stop against a curb, he peered inside. Viloria instructed the kids to call 911, while he tried to see if he could help their mother.

Meanwhile, a firefighter had just entered the restaurant a few minutes earlier and was unaware of what was going on outside. He was alerted to the plight of the person in the SUV and soon, along with his partner, and an off-duty paramedic was outside administering aid.

The day is saved

Within a short time, fire rescue also arrived on the scene. Soon, the mother of two was receiving the help she needed. If not for Viloria’s quick thinking, though, the situation could have turned out much worse.

Viloria was lauded for his quick action but downplayed his role in the incident. Fortunately, the mother was able to make a full recovery.

“If I would have needed to die to save that woman, I would have done it,” Viloria said. “I never panicked at all, I just, my brain was on hero mode.”

His heroic actions, which were caught on video, soon went viral, with over 4 million people watching the video on YouTube. For more of Viloria’s quick thinking in a scary situation, check out the video below.

How To Make Avocado Garlic Butter, The Healthy, Creamy Condiment You Didn’t Know You Needed

Nowadays, many people around the world are spending more time in their homes. Therefore, now it’s the perfect time to practice yourself on food preparation. However, this time, there aren’t any delicious dessert recipes, high-calorie spreads, or cheese-filled pasta. In fact, now it’s time to boost your health and strengthen your immunity.

If you follow a vegan diet or you are lactose intolerant, you know that butter has a negative effect on the quality of your life. Fortunately, you can easily replace the regular, dairy butter for good. A perfect substitute is the avocado since it has the same physical characteristics as butter.

Additionally, the combination of avocados and garlic is a real health promoter. Due to its high antioxidants, garlic is a powerful natural weapon that lowers high cholesterol and blood pressure levels.

On the other hand, avocados are rich in over 20 essential nutrients, including vitamin C, K, E, B5, potassium, and folate, as well as humble amounts of magnesium, copper, iron, zinc, phosphorous, manganese, and vitamins A, B1, B2, and B3.

This healthy, creamy recipe has been developed by Fooddeco and is the health condiment you didn’t know you needed. In order to get the perfect smooth and spreadable texture, you’ll need perfectly ripe avocados.

Here’s how to make avocado garlic butter:

Ingredients:

  • 2 ripe avocados, pit & skin removed
  • 2 garlic cloves, grated
  • 3 Tbsp coconut oil, melted
  • 1 Tbsp lemon juice
  • Small bunch of cilantro, chopped
  • Sea salt, to taste

Preparation:

Cut the avocado in half, peel the skin and remove the pit. Then, combine all the ingredients in a food processor and mix until you get a smooth mixture. Season to taste with sea salt.

Next, cover the counter with a large piece of aluminum foil and add a piece of plastic wrap on top of it. Scoop the mixture onto the plastic wrap and fold the plastic wrap lengthwise, rolling it up a bit.

Lastly, roll the aluminum foil to get a small log of butter, and place it in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours to firm.

Honest man pulls a woman aside to show her rare find at garage sale

You might be able to find something valuable at a garage sale.

But what about something historic?

However, in one video, you’ll see something truly remarkable that was lying on the ground. It’s strewn amongst some sports equipment in the driveway.

This incredible story will captivate sports fans and anyone interested in a piece of American history.

This piece of memorabilia is on the cutting edge of our current national conflict.

Bruce Scapecchi was out doing what he does every Saturday morning. He’s driving around to garage sales in search of a unique find.

Bruce claims to attend over five thousand garage sales each summer, making him a garage sale veteran and expert.

He parked his car and walked up a suburban driveway on a mundane street. The small garage sale appeared to be ordinary at first, but then he noticed something extraordinary.

Under a ping pong table, there was a piece of wood on the ground.

If you weren’t looking for anything spectacular, it was rather unremarkable. It was thrown down there with a couple of aluminum baseball bats. Bruce had an eye for interesting finds, although it appeared to be nothing.

When he asked the owner how much it was, Sue McEntee told him it was one dollar. Bruce inquired on whether she was aware of what this was.

She told him it was an old baseball bat, not knowing why he was asking such a simple question.

Nothing special and he could get it for a buck.

Bruce wasn’t certain about this baseball bat. Still, he recognized it as having a distinct grip that could belong to a specific and historic player.

He pulled Sue aside and told her she might be on to something. Asking if she had a pencil?

Sue went inside and pulled out a pencil, her curiosity piqued. Bruce rubbed the graphite from the pencil across a specific part of the bat.

He’s highlighting something that demonstrated this was no ordinary piece of maple.

The graphite highlighted something — an engraving was carved into the wood. The engraving had worn down over time, but it was clear who owned this bat.

Sue’s mind brought back memories as the name was revealed.

She remembered her Uncle Joe Hatten, a real-life major leaguer.

That would be overly simplistic if the bat belonged to her uncle.

No, the story is much more complicated than that.

The name engraved on the bat belonged to someone her uncle Joe had played with for the Brooklyn Dodgers in 1947. Baseball had a historic year, but American civilization as a whole had an even more historic year.

The bat belonged to the one and only Jackie Robinson and his name was right there.

Jackie Robinson is an American professional baseball player who became the first African American to play in Major League Baseball (MLB) in the modern era.

Jackie put on a Dodgers uniform and took the field at First Base in 1947 amidst the boos, racial slurs, and cheers. Whether anyone liked it or not, the world changed for the better that day.

He had to stand firm as an example of grace and resolve.

Jackie had to deal with squabbles from both his teammates and the opposing teams.

 

Consider who in your circle would be interested in hearing about this amazing and magical find at a neighborhood garage sale.

You never know what you’ll come across. It could be a game-changing piece of memorabilia.

Something to remind us of where we came from as a nation and where we need to change to make the world a better place.

Man jumps into action when he sees a stranger pick up a little girl and throw her into a car

When your parents told you as a child not to talk to strangers or wander too far, you probably never gave it much more thought. Your brain went autopilot mode and just thought “Okay I’ll just do what they say”.

Now that you’re all grown up and understand things more, I’m sure you at least have a much better idea of why parents really don’t want their kids getting lost or talking to strangers.

Source: YouTube – Inside Edition
And in case you need a wake-up call as to what sort of dangers you’d face as a small child, then look no further than here.

Here, in Louisville, Kentucky is where every parent’s worst nightmare took place.

Witnessing everything was Prentiss Weatherford, a grown man who’s way too big to worry about anything a small kid would.

And it was fortunate that this was the case, because such a child would end up needing his help pretty soon.

Weatherford was outside his home one day when he spotted a 6-year old girl on her bike with no one watching her.

Already, not a good predicament for a small child.

Though it got a whole lot worse in just a few seconds. Before Weatherford knew it, a strange red Dodge Challenger pulled up.

Out stepped a man who grabbed the little girl, and tossed her into his car before driving off.

Prentiss was taken aback by what he saw. The man probably didn’t notice Prentiss in the area – and if he did, probably thought he could snatch the girl before anyone noticed. That was his mistake.

Obviously not wanting to stand around and do nothing, Prentiss hopped into his own car and gave chase. If he couldn’t catch that horrible excuse for a human being, he’d at least be able to get the license plate number.

 

That, and a general idea of where he might head next.

This is precisely why parents emphasize not talking to strangers or straying off by yourself. As the saying goes, better to be safe than sorry. Most kids won’t have a random stranger around to act as a witness and follow their kidnappers in a car.

Prentiss couldn’t catch the guy himself, but with the license plate number and car description he took down, the police could. He contacted them and spilled the details.

 

A red Dodge Challenger, with these 3 last digits on the license plate. It was heading away from Dixie Highway.

And with those details, the police had a lot to narrow the suspect down with. An entire division assisted with the pursuit, all thanks to Weatherford’s quick thinking.

 

10 minutes later, it was all over. They cornered the man in his red Dodge Challenger, and he came out of the car without any struggle or confrontation.

 

Of course, the little girl was crying and terrified when they brought her out of the car. She was probably too young to understand everything that was happening, but she definitely knew she was in danger the whole time. Goes to show that there’s some truly horrible people in the world.

But there’s also some truly decent and good-spirited people to do something about it.

 

Prentiss being one of them. His chasing and gathering of info saved this little girl’s life, and the police in Louisville made sure to emphasize that.

Day at the beach ends in tragedy when cliff collapses and kills family of 3 and their dog

A family of three and their dog have died after a cliff face collapsed while they were enjoying a family day at the beach.

Hugo Pereira died in the freak accident with his partner Stella Souza and their 7-month-old baby while relaxing on a popular tourist beach in Brazil.

The 33-year-old mom was found hugging her son as she tried to protect him from the boulders which came away from the cliff.

According to media reports they were buried in a landslide when the cliff face collapsed on Pipa Beach, in Brazil, on Tuesday, November 17.

The couple’s baby was breathing when they found him but died shortly after from his injuries.

Witnesses said the family were sitting near the base of the cliff when rocks collapsed on top of them.

The family’s dog, called Brisa, also died in the accident.

“We dug until we found the father, and then we found the mother and child. She was hugging (the baby),” local resident Igor Caetano told Brazilian media outlet G1. “It appears she instinctively tried to protect her son.

“The adults’ injuries were very severe because they took the brunt of the collapse.”

A doctor who happened to be in the area rushed to help revive the baby and passersby started digging with their hands and using sticks to try and get the family out.

A local fisherman said they were constantly warning tourists not to sit in the shadows of the cliffs because of the risk.

“I’m born and raised here and this has always happened because the sea is gradually destroying the cliff more and more,” he said, as per 7news.com.

According to the news report council officials said signs warning of the dangers of landslides are constantly being washed away by the ocean.

The 32-year-old dad Hugo had recently moved to the area to work as a hotel manager close to the beach.

“They were very happy, a very happy family. Hugo was a wonderful man who took good care of Stella and Sol. They were people who only left happiness,” Stella’s mom Sânzia said as per Alkhaleej Today

.Such a tragedy, my heart goes out to the family of this sweet couple and their beautiful baby boy. Rest in peace.

U.S. gymnast Suni Lee wins Olympic all-round after injuries, family deaths, and a terrible accident

At just 18 years old Suni Lee has broken through many barriers to win Olympic gold in gymnastics.

With Simone Biles out of the women’s all-around competition, all eyes were on young American gymnast Sunisa Lee for the top spot of Olympic champion – and she didn’t disappoint.

Delivering an impressive and masterful performance she became the first Asian American woman to win gold in the Olympics’ all-around competition – a dream she herself didn’t expect.

Sunisa Lee, who has made history as the first Hmong American to compete in the Olympics, had to pull out of training late last year spending months recovering from a broken bone in her left foot and an Achilles tendon injury.

“This is such a surreal moment. I just feel like I could have never been here ever. It doesn’t even feel like real life,” the 18-year-old said after winning her gold medal.

The teen, who is also the youngest gymnast on the U.S. team, has spent the last two years never giving up on her dream despite the obstacles. As well as being marred by injuries, she lost an aunt and uncle to Covid-19.

In August 2019, just days before Lee competed in her first senior U.S. National Championships, her father John Lee fell out of a tree while helping a friend, leaving him paralyzed from the waist down.

She went onto compete in honor of her father defying expectations by winning the silver medal in the all-around, only second to Simone Biles and gold in the bars at just 16 years old.

 

Her dad has supported his daughter’s dreams throughout, even building a balance beam in the garden so she could practice whenever she wanted.

Back home in Minnesota, John Lee pumped his fist in the air as he watched his daughter achieve her dream.

 

“There’s no words to describe how we feel right now,” the father of six told CBS Local.

Suni’s mother, Yeev Thoj, said her daughter has made so many sacrifices to achieve her dream.

“All the injuries … she has a bad day, then she’ll come home so stressed about it and crying — that has finally paid off,” she added. “She’s a gold medalist. And I’m super proud as a mom.”

Suni is now the women’s gymnastics all-around champion and continues the US’ 17-year winning streak in the competition.

This winning streak was hanging in the balance this week after previous Olympic champion Simone Biles pulled out citing a need to focus on her mental health after stumbling on the vault.

But for Sunni Lee claiming the top spot has not come easy.

“It’s an achievement that almost didn’t happen. There was a point in time where I wanted to quit and I just didn’t think I would ever get here,” Lee said after her win, as per CNN.

“So there’s definitely a lot of emotions. But I’m super proud of myself for sticking with it and believing in myself because this medal would not be possible without my coaches, the medical team, my parents. It’s just so surreal, and I haven’t even let it sink in yet.”

Knowing the obstacles this young woman has overcome to achieve such a coveted title makes her win even more impressive.

88-year-old crossing guard killed by speeding car after saving 2 children from being hit

It’s easy to believe that heroes don’t exist, that they belong only in comic book strips and Marvel films.

The truth is, they’re present in all walks of life in the form of people who do extraordinary things, sometimes at the cost of great sacrifice.

A much-loved crossing guard in Kansas City, Kansas gave his life on Tuesday to save children who might otherwise have lost theirs.

88-year-old Bob Nill had worked at Christ the King Parish School as a crossing guard for five years. He was held in high regard by the students, many of whom affectionally called him “Mr. Bob”.

 

As per reports, a speeding black sedan raced right through Nill’s crosswalk at around 8 a.m. on Tuesday morning.

Sensing the danger, Nill put himself in harm’s way to save two children.

“He stopped [two kids], and they listened, thank God, but then he, of course, was the victim,” school principal Cathy Fithian told KMBC 9.

Fox 4 cite witnesses as saying the 88-year-old pushed the children back as the car sped past. Unfortunately, this meant he was struck. Nill’s nephew, Randy, said the courageous act wasn’t out of character.

He explained: “What my Uncle Bob did for just getting little kids across the street seemed probably trivial to some people, but for him, it was a really important job, and now, we really know how important it was. He maybe saved some lives.”

 

Nill had worked in banking and served in the Coast Guard before his retirement. After stepping back from full-time work, he worked as a crossing guard to continue giving back to his community.

“This was something I think he felt like he could help children and help himself feel good about what he was doing,” Randy said.

Christ the King Parish School released a statement on their Facebook page on Tuesday.

“We would like to give you an update on our crossing guard, Mr. Nill. Our hearts are heavy as we inform you of his passing. Please continue to keep Mr. Nill and his family in your prayers as well as the students, parents, and teachers who witnessed today’s accident.

“Also know that Mr. Nill is a hero. He stopped two of our students from crossing the road as the car approached.”

Rest in peace, Bob Nill. Your actions saved lives and for that you will always be remembered as a hero.
