Kamikaze squirrel goes flying in cannon blast for America 250, all he wanted to be was a flying squirrel šŸ˜„

Close-up of a grey squirrel with open mouth and wide eyes on a tree branch.

He took escape plans to nutty new heights. An acrobatic squirrel in Brooklyn got so spooked when soldiers fired a ceremonial cannon Thursday morning, it hurled itself off a telephone pole — and lived to tell the tale, according to wild footage and officials. The freaked-out furball threw itself into the air kamikaze-style and plunged dozens of feet after Army members blasted the cannon to welcome a German warship at Fort Hamilton in Brooklyn during America 250 celebrations ahead of the Fourth of July, military officials said. ā€˜ā€œā€™I didn’t sign up for this,’— This squirrel, probably,ā€ USAG Fort Hamilton hilariously posted, along with the footage, on Facebook Thursday. ā€œSorry for the early boom, Brooklyn! We promise it’s for a good cause. (The squirrel remains unconvinced.),ā€ it added.

Maine high school students accidentally serve a dirt pie at a charity dinner

Teenagers are known for dishing out the dirt, but not quite like this. Students at a high school in Maine were fed potting soil at a community service event raising money to fight hunger, in a bizarre incident the school called ā€œan unfortunate accident.ā€ Students at Medomack Valley High School in Waldoboro had baked aĀ batch of potting soilĀ earlier that day during a science class experiment to determine the effect of sterilized soil on plant growth, according to a statement from the school. ā€œThe soil had been placed in a baking dish covered with foil and set off to the side of the stove area, separate from the Empty Bowl Supper food items,ā€ theĀ statementĀ signed by principal Linda Pease read.

Later, in the mad dash to serve guests at the charity dinner, the oven-roasted dirt got mixed in with other food items meant for the meal and was brought out for service.
