41-year-old YouTuber ‘Dad’ stops 26-year-old rival in blistering 22 seconds
A 41-year-old YouTube star landed a stunning 22-second finish against an opponent nearly half his age to open last night's Creator Clash fight card in Florida. Nathan Barnatt, otherwise known by his alias 'Dad', was squaring off against 26-year-old Matt Watson, of comedy duo 'SuperMega', but taught him a lesson or two inside the first few seconds of the opening round. He connected with a vicious right-hook to send the visibly inexperienced Watson stumbling backwards and followed up with a powerful left as well as a couple of stiff body shots before the referee stepped in to call an end to proceedings. Barnatt claims he'd been training at least 10 hours a day for six months in preparation for the fight and had even enlisted help from WWE superstar John Morrison. "My two coaches, trained me really well," Barnatt told Mirror Fighting after the bout. "I tried to tell him that I was really going hard, training non-stop every day for six months. Which current Premier … [Read more...] about 41-year-old YouTuber ‘Dad’ stops 26-year-old rival in blistering 22 seconds
This 86-year-old prankster claims Donald Trump has owed him $918.58 since 1994
Culture Donald Trump Hoaxes Nobody knows "fake news" better than Alan Abel. He pretty much invented it. The man has spent much of his 80-some years finding outrageously strange and clever ways to bamboozle the media. In 1959, when he was a young man, Abel founded the Society for Indecency to Naked Animals. The group's slogan: "A nude horse is a rude horse." The organization, which declared it a matter of moralistic urgency to make dogs and horses and other animals wear pants, was a joke, but the Today show (among other media outlets) took the bait. "Even Walter Cronkite believed it," Abel says. "About putting Marina shorts on horses and a mumu on a cow. That should be a tip right there. A red flag. 'What do you mean you want to put a mumu on a cow?'" Since then, Abel has typically been described as a "prankster" or a "media hoaxer." His career far precedes The Onion, Facebook hoaxes and Sacha Baron Cohen. During the 1970s, with help from some collaborators, Abel fooled … [Read more...] about This 86-year-old prankster claims Donald Trump has owed him $918.58 since 1994

Want to save the planet? Find a 94-year-old genius
Tech & Science Tesla Batteries Electric Cars A man old enough to be Mark Zuckerberg's great-grandfather just unveiled energy storage technology that might save the planet. John Goodenough is 94, and his current work could be the key to Tesla's future—much as, decades ago, his efforts were an important part of Sony's era of dominance in portable gadgets. Over the years, Goodenough has scuffled with Warren Buffett, wound up screwed by global patent wars, never got rich off a headline-grabbing initial public offering and defied the American tech industry's prejudice that says old people can't innovate.
