now it was Jack.

32
00:02:01.879 --> 00:02:05.560
The number one book was The Other Woman by Daniel Silva.

33
00:02:05.760 --> 00:02:09.639
Top movie was The meg Scientists exploring the Marianas Trench

34
00:02:09.759 --> 00:02:13.000
find the largest ocean predator that has ever existed. The

35
00:02:13.080 --> 00:02:18.360
Megaladon stars Jason Stratham, Bing Bingley, and Rain Wilson. All Right,

36
00:02:18.439 --> 00:02:21.280
what happened? On August the ninth, eleven seventy three, a

37
00:02:21.400 --> 00:02:24.120
construction on the Leaning Tower of Pisa began. Took them

38
00:02:24.120 --> 00:02:26.479
two hundred years to complete it. Then when they were done,

39
00:02:26.520 --> 00:02:29.560
they realized they built it wrong. Why it wasn't supposed

40
00:02:29.599 --> 00:02:32.479
to be called the Leaning Tower at Pisa. In seventeen

41
00:02:32.560 --> 00:02:34.800
ninety of the ship the Columbia I read via it

42
00:02:34.919 --> 00:02:37.520
sailed into Boston Harbor after three years to see it

43
00:02:37.599 --> 00:02:40.080
was the first United States ship to sail around the world.

44
00:02:40.120 --> 00:02:44.479
This captain was Robert Gray when you get yourself into

45
00:02:44.520 --> 00:02:46.560
an elevator. Most of the time, if you look up

46
00:02:46.599 --> 00:02:50.439
near the control panel, you'll see Otis say Otis toughs Today.

47
00:02:50.479 --> 00:02:52.639
In eighteen fifty nine got a patent for the first

48
00:02:52.680 --> 00:02:56.520
passenger elevator. Now the Otis Company, it's the largest maker

49
00:02:56.560 --> 00:02:59.439
of elevators and escalators in the entire world. Every day,

50
00:02:59.479 --> 00:03:02.240
two point three billion people around the world ride on

51
00:03:02.280 --> 00:03:07.400
an Otis elevator, escalator, or moving hawked way. Nineteen forty four,

52
00:03:07.560 --> 00:03:10.120
the United States Forest Service it launched his Smoky Bear

53
00:03:10.199 --> 00:03:13.400
campaign to help prevent forest fires. Smoky Bear was actually

54
00:03:13.439 --> 00:03:16.080
named after a New York City fireman, Smokey Joe Martin.

55
00:03:16.639 --> 00:03:19.240
Now you can Smokey Bear is the actual campaign, but

56
00:03:19.400 --> 00:03:22.280
they don't care if you caught Smoky the Bear. Nineteen

57
00:03:22.360 --> 00:03:25.000
forty five, Fat Man was the second atomic bomb that

58
00:03:25.199 --> 00:03:27.560
was dropped. It was more powerful than Little Boy that

59
00:03:27.599 --> 00:03:29.800
had been dropped a couple of days ago. Fat Man

60
00:03:29.879 --> 00:03:32.080
was originally supposed to be dropped on the Japanese city

61
00:03:32.080 --> 00:03:35.560
of Kilkira, but due to heavy clouds, they switched over

62
00:03:35.639 --> 00:03:39.360
to Nakasaki. Now around seventy five thousand people were killed. Now,

63
00:03:39.400 --> 00:03:42.000
even though the bomb was a lot bigger. It wasn't

64
00:03:42.560 --> 00:03:46.800
quite as catastrophic, I guess you'd say because se Hiroshima

65
00:03:47.199 --> 00:03:49.879
was a lot flatter Nagasaki. It was kind of hilly,

66
00:03:49.879 --> 00:03:51.919
so I kind of gave him a little bit of protection.

67
00:03:52.039 --> 00:03:55.840
But it's still pretty bad. Nineteen sixty nine, even more carnage.

68
00:03:55.960 --> 00:03:59.919
Hilter Skilter happened. Now Followers of Charles Manson killed actor

69
00:04:00.120 --> 00:04:02.439
US eight and Hunt months eight and a half month

70
00:04:02.520 --> 00:04:05.319
pregnant Sharon Tate and her baby and four others that

71
00:04:05.360 --> 00:04:08.199
were staying at her home. Now, like you said he

72
00:04:08.240 --> 00:04:10.960
would do yesterday, in nineteen seventy four, United States President

73
00:04:11.039 --> 00:04:14.039
Richard Nixon resigned. Vice President Joe Ford was sworn in

74
00:04:14.120 --> 00:04:18.120
as a thirty eighth United States President. Nixon's resignation later, Yeah,

75
00:04:18.160 --> 00:04:20.920
it was pretty simple. It was addressed to Secretary of

76
00:04:20.959 --> 00:04:24.360
