Ain't nothing about you?

28
00:02:00.000 --> 00:02:01.480
There you love, where you.

29
00:02:01.719 --> 00:02:04.159
Laughing, where you live, with all you have?

30
00:02:04.640 --> 00:02:08.080
There ain't nothing about you. Don't do sign for.

31
00:02:08.280 --> 00:02:12.120
Me, Where you kiss it, where you crowd, where you

00:02:12.360 --> 00:02:13.879

33
00:02:14.159 --> 00:02:17.639
There ain't nothing about you. Don't do Sign for.

34
00:02:20.039 --> 00:02:22.280
The Number one book was On the Street Where You

35
00:02:22.400 --> 00:02:26.479
Live by Mary Higgins Clark Todd movie was Pearl Harbor Now.

36
00:02:26.599 --> 00:02:29.199
It follows two best friends and a pretty nurse as

37
00:02:29.280 --> 00:02:32.240
they go through the Pearl Harbor attack in nineteen forty one.

38
00:02:32.800 --> 00:02:36.080
Stars Ben Affleck, Josh Harsnett, and Kate Birkansdale.

39
00:02:36.800 --> 00:02:37.240
All Right, what.

40
00:02:37.400 --> 00:02:40.080
Happened on May the twenty first, seventeen ninety two, Mount

41
00:02:40.120 --> 00:02:43.439
Oonzan and Japan erupted. Now between the eruption and the

42
00:02:43.439 --> 00:02:46.840
tsunami it created me I killed fifteen thousand people, said

43
00:02:46.879 --> 00:02:51.360
Delhi's volcano eruption in Japan's history eighteen eighty one. Clara Barton,

44
00:02:51.439 --> 00:02:54.719
she founded the American Red Cross. Now when cars first

45
00:02:54.759 --> 00:02:57.560
were invented and made the tire rim. They were built

46
00:02:57.599 --> 00:02:59.919
into the car frame. Wasn't until nineteen oh six when

47
00:03:00.039 --> 00:03:03.520
Lewis Pearlman, he invented the first removable tire rim for cars,

48
00:03:03.879 --> 00:03:07.879
got of a big invention. Actually, nineteen twenty seven, pilot

49
00:03:08.000 --> 00:03:10.639
Charles Lindbergh landed in Paris. He left New York the

50
00:03:10.719 --> 00:03:13.000
day before, again the first person to fly solo and

51
00:03:13.080 --> 00:03:16.719
NonStop across the Atlantic Ocean. Five years exactly to the day,

52
00:03:16.759 --> 00:03:19.479
in nineteen thirty two, Amelia Earhart became the first woman

53
00:03:19.560 --> 00:03:22.240
to fly solo and NonStop across the Atlantic Ocean. She

54
00:03:22.400 --> 00:03:25.479
landed in london Berry, Northern Ireland. She had left Newfoundland

55
00:03:25.479 --> 00:03:28.400
the day before. Why didn't she just follow Lindberg's Wow,

56
00:03:28.439 --> 00:03:29.199
that one's a lot shorter.

57
00:03:30.360 --> 00:03:30.479
Now.

58
00:03:30.560 --> 00:03:32.599
I can't give you all the details for this story,

59
00:03:32.759 --> 00:03:35.800
or I'd have to give herselves an explicit rating. But

60
00:03:35.960 --> 00:03:38.240
if it piques your interest in you want more, details

61
00:03:38.240 --> 00:03:40.560
are pretty easy to look up. It was a huge

62
00:03:40.599 --> 00:03:43.039
story in Japan in nineteen thirty six, still quite the

63
00:03:43.120 --> 00:03:46.280
legend over there. This woman say to Abe she was

64
00:03:46.319 --> 00:03:48.800
a Geese and a prostitute. She was arrested wandering the

65
00:03:48.840 --> 00:03:51.120
streets of Tokyo with her lovers severed genital tools in

66
00:03:51.199 --> 00:03:55.120
her hand. Now she had actually strang out Kuchiso, I'm

67
00:03:55.159 --> 00:03:57.719
shot at in his sleep and then she yep, well,

68
00:03:58.000 --> 00:04:00.520
she spent five years in jail for it. That's all

69
00:04:00.560 --> 00:04:03.599
I can talk about. Nineteen fifty in Isling, England, it

70
00:04:03.759 --> 00:04:05.960
was the damnedest thing. Oh may this. She went out

71
00:04:05.960 --> 00:04:08.280
in the morning to feed her chickens. All the chickens

72
00:04:08.319 --> 00:04:10.680
running around her chicken coop had been plucked. Yep, they

73
00:04:10.719 --> 00:04:13.280
didn't have any feathers on them. She didn't know what

74
00:04:13.360 --> 00:04:16.040
in the world could have assily happened, so she contacted authorities.

75
00:04:16.439 --> 00:04:18.519
They said, in earth, a tornado had passed over the

76
00:04:18.600 --> 00:04:21.439
chicken coop and the sudden dropping pressure caused all the

77
00:04:21.519 --> 00:04:24.240
chickens to be plucked. Every chicken lived. I mean, that's

78
00:04:24.279 --> 00:04:26.959
a nice cute little store. But I think we all know. Yeah,

79
00:04:26.959 --> 00:04:30.279
it was probably aliens. Right. Nineteen seventy two, at Saint

80
00:04:30.399 --> 00:04:34.720
Peter's Basilica in Rome, Michael Anderl's statue Pieda. It's a

81
00:04:34.879 --> 00:04:37.879
statue where Mary is sitting and she has Jesus lying

82
00:04:37.879 --> 00:04:40.680
in her arms as he was taking down from the cross. Yeah,

83
00:04:40.839 --> 00:04:44.480
it was vandalized this one mentally unstable man. He attacked

84
00:04:44.519 --> 00:04:48.720
it with a hammer. Now he hit the statue fifteen times. Now,

85
00:04:48.800 --> 00:04:51.600
he knocked off Mary's arm at the elbow, took a

86
00:04:51.680 --> 00:04:53.519
chunk guy of her nose and some out of her cheeks.

87
00:04:53.639 --> 00:04:55.800
It looks like they've pretty much got it repaired, though

88
00:04:56.160 --> 00:04:59.319
he was held down bystanders until the police could actually

89
00:04:59.319 --> 00:05:02.439
show up. In twenty seventeen, in Nasau Coliseum in New

90
00:05:02.480 --> 00:05:04.879
York City, the Barnum and Bailey Circus performed for the

91
00:05:04.959 --> 00:05:07.240
very last time. Now that circus has been performing for

92
00:05:07.240 --> 00:05:09.279
one hundred and forty six years. Now you can just

93
00:05:09.279 --> 00:05:10.480

And you know we don't give up the birthday.

99
00:05:26.480 --> 00:05:29.120
Alright. Let's check out who was born on May the second.

100
00:05:29.680 --> 00:05:32.560
Actor Raymond Burr. He was born in Westminster, Canada, in

101
00:05:32.680 --> 00:05:36.399
nineteen seventeen. Most known for TV starred as Perry Mason,

102
00:05:36.439 --> 00:05:39.079
then his ironside. Early on in his career, whether he

103
00:05:39.240 --> 00:05:43.600
was doing Broadway music or musicals, movies, TVs, radio, whatever

104
00:05:43.600 --> 00:05:45.519
he was doing, he always played the bad guy, so

105
00:05:45.639 --> 00:05:47.639
he is really happy when they let him play Perry Mason.

106
00:05:48.040 --> 00:05:50.319
Biggest movie is probably A Rear Window. I guess it

107
00:05:50.360 --> 00:05:52.959
could have been Godzilla, King of the Monsters. He married

108
00:05:52.959 --> 00:05:54.920
a woman for a couple of years in the nineteen forties.

109
00:05:55.199 --> 00:05:57.560
Then from nineteen sixty to nineteen ninety three he lived

110
00:05:57.600 --> 00:06:00.600
with his boyfriend. Yeah, they were actually a welcome up secret.

111
00:06:00.759 --> 00:06:03.439
Hardly anybody knew that he was gay. So when he

112
00:06:03.600 --> 00:06:05.879
died from cancer in nineteen ninety three and seventy six

113
00:06:05.959 --> 00:06:08.120
years old and where got out, Hollywood was actually stunned.

114
00:06:08.959 --> 00:06:10.480
You know you made me vone up.

115
00:06:18.199 --> 00:06:19.439

00:07:26.079 --> 00:07:28.839
United States around nineteen seventy eight. You make me feel

132
00:07:28.920 --> 00:07:32.560
like dancing when I need you? How much I love you? Yeah,

133
00:07:32.639 --> 00:07:34.720

00:07:44.360 --> 00:07:45.959
knees from when he took a fall off the stage

140
00:07:45.959 --> 00:08:05.360
in nineteen seventy seven. At seventy four years old, mister T.

141
00:08:05.560 --> 00:08:07.279
He still looks like he's in pretty good shape. He

142
00:08:07.399 --> 00:08:10.040
was born Lawrence Turriott in Chicago in nineteen fifty two.

Now.

144
00:08:11.319 --> 00:08:13.240
He never really was a big guy. I mean he's

145
00:08:13.279 --> 00:08:15.560
only five ten, like two thirty five. He just came

146
00:08:15.639 --> 00:08:18.160
across a lot bigger on the screen and on TV. Now,

147
00:08:18.240 --> 00:08:20.800
after the Army he became a bouncer and a bodyguard.

148
00:08:21.160 --> 00:08:23.639

Michael Jackson, Diana Ross, Boxer's Muhammad Ali, and Joe Frazier.

150
00:08:28.199 --> 00:08:31.120
Then he won a TV show called America's Toughest Bouncer. Well,

151
00:08:31.279 --> 00:08:33.480
Sylvester Stallone was watching it, so he cast him to

152
00:08:33.480 --> 00:08:35.840
play clubb Lane in Rocky three. From there he went

153
00:08:35.879 --> 00:08:37.840

He got his hairstyle from a National Geographic magazine issue. Yeah,

158
00:08:46.960 --> 00:08:49.200

159
00:08:49.240 --> 00:08:51.440
that was pretty cool. Now he had a son from
