Social media favourites | Week Six

Good morning! It’s Tuesday, which means that this post is a couple of days late. I have been experiencing some terrible internet problems over the last few weeks and have just had to trial uploading blog posts and YouTube videos when the internet will allow.

There seems to be a running theme of ‘doing good’ this week because the majority of the videos i’ve chosen are about people being kind but there are a couple of incredibly funny clips to keep you giggling too. 

Enjoy! 

1. Man gives homeless guy a ‘winning lottery ticket’

A YouTube magician and prankster who goes by the name MagicofRahat gave a homeless man called Eric a lottery ticket as a gesture for not having any spare change. He had set up the scenario so that once Eric cashed in the lottery ticket he would ‘win’ a great amount of money. What the homeless man did next will bring a tear to your eye! Please click on the video to watch. 

In addition, because there has been a tremendous amount of support for Eric, a campaign has been started to improve his lifestyle and raise $20,000. If you would like to help give Eric a pick-me-up then please donate here: https://fundly.com/eric-s-fundraising

2.  Cooper Loves Ice Cream

Coopers Dogpatch is an outdoor action resort for dogs, ran by Sunni and Katie who also happen to have a YouTube channel for capturing the doggy days!  In this particular video they took two dogs, Cooper and Daisy through the drive through at McDonalds because they both love ice cream and you have to watch below to see why Daisy gets to try the ice cream first.

3. Seeing her for the first time again!

Jason Mortenson had a hernia repair to fix residual tears from a previous surgery. But when he woke up, he didn't recognise his wife and unintentionally began to chat her up! It was his fifth surgery in six years and this time, his wife Candice was smart enough to capture his sweetness. 

The couple are now raising funds to be able to adopt an orphan from Africa http://www.gofundme.com/5s0100

4. Wee Bunny taking the pish

Two Scottish guys are driving home at night when they are obstructed by a rabbit that just won’t get off the road. They try to slow down and even park up, hoping that the rabbit will jump into the fields, but instead it seems the rabbit is tormenting them! All you can hear is great commentary and belly laughs.  

This video contains strong language. Please don’t watch if you are easily offended. But with that aside, it’s guaranteed to make you laugh, a lot.


















5. Photo Booth Challenge with Isabelle & Finley

For the last feature of this weeks social media favourites, I couldn't help but include my gorgeous niece and nephew. I filmed them playing about with the Photo Booth application on my MacBook a few weeks ago and created a montage of the best moments. Watch how we turned them into aliens, chipmunks and lots of other funny faces.

Happiness Fact

This week our happiness fact is just adorable! Did you know that Sea otters hold hands when they sleep to keep from drifting apart? Here is a picture to extend the cuteness.






Keep smiling :-)
