Mom, Candace Payne, bought not her kids but herself  (she's very clear on this) a toy at Kohl's yesterday and was so keen to show her friends on Facebook her new purchase that she created, what I think to be, the best unofficial unboxing video of all time. 

Payne purchased a Star Wars Electronic Chewbacca Mask which, as she delightedly demonstrates, when you open your mouth, the mask lets out a series of different wookie sounds.

Though using the Facebook Live function purely for her own friends and family's viewing, the pure joy in her new purchase and her contagious belly laughs have made the video go viral, the original with over 70 million views in its first twenty-four hours alone.

Her natural enthusiasm builds your anticipation and her reaction to her purchase makes the mask's unveiling well and truly worth the (short) wait. 

In the month of the fire's second anniversary, footage has been making the rounds of the internet from March, 2014, when a construction worker was rescued from a giant blaze in Houston, Texas, in what is one of the closest calls I've ever seen.
The amateur footage, filmed by an aghast Karen Jones in a building across the street, shows a man trapped on a top-floor balcony of what looks to be the work-in-progress of a soon-to-be apartment complex.

Thankfully, a fire crew spotted the lone man on the semi-built balcony and came to his aid with a crane just as it was being thoroughly destroyed by fire.

The man seemed incredibly calm under the circumstances, until the fire reached the interior room just inside and it appears the heat became too intense. It's incredible that the incomplete balcony he jumped onto held. He sure was lucky.
​
No injuries were reported as a result of the blaze, but you sure think you're going to see something else when watching, don't you!

​Yikes.
