This amazing video has been making rounds on the interwebs lately and I knew I just had to write about it.

This awesome footage shows 500 people performing together at the opening ceremony of the Nanjing Youth Olympic Games. It’s actually just 8 minutes in length but to be honest, I could watch this all day!

I’ve never seen anything like this before and it’s really mind-blowing. I’m sure this act took a lot of time to practice and perfect.

500 acrobats and dancers formed a gigantic human Christmas tree.

The performance took place in Nanjing, China last year, August 16, during the 2014 Summer Youth Olympic Games. In the darkened stadium, the acrobats and dancers took center stage.

The acrobats were suspended up in the air with the aid of cable wires.

Using cable wires, the acrobats did impressive stunts and dance moves while they floated in the air. The choreography was flawless!

Additionally, perfectly-timed lighting effects and fireworks further enhanced the show.

The lighting effects and the fireworks added to the overall beauty of the unique presentation. The crowd couldn’t help but clap non-stop during and after the stunning performance. Even Chinese President Xi Jinping, who was also in attendance, showed great appreciation for the extraordinary act.

You can watch the performance here:

I missed this on the news when it happened last year but thanks to the internet, the video found new life once again. And hey, it’s just perfectly in time for the Christmas season. So be sure to share this with your friends!

An 18th century woman named Mary Toft shocked all of the English countryside of Godalming, Surrey in 1726 after she gave birth to a multitude of...bunnies!

Yes, rabbits! Apparently, Mistress Toft eschewed the traditional pulling-a-rabbit-out-a-hat trick, and decided to pull not only one....but several...out of her baby-hole.

Humanity have to thank modern technology for all the wonders that primitive people were not able to enjoy. Take conceiving for example. Back in the day, people with reproductive problems simply accept the fact that they cannot have a baby. Period. Now, science has paved the way for finding endless solutions.

Take Miranda and Josh for example. For their first baby, they turned to in vitro fertilization (IVF). The couple then set out a plan to have three or four babies in the future.

When their first born turned two, Miranda and Josh, who are both nurses by profession, decided to have another baby. So Miranda underwent an IVF again. This time, the doctors injected two embryos into her uterus.
