in 1929, Shakuntala Devi was a human computer.

She gave the 23rd root of a 201 digit number in 50 seconds. The answer was verifiedby the UNIVAC 1101 computer, for which a special program had to be written.

You can feel the beat of your heart in many places of your body, but you can even see it like pulses in the blood flowing from a wound. This was a relatively small one cleaned out in water

It's not a landslide

It's a man running. Down a mountain.

The loquat, a characteristic fruit of the town of Coayllo in the province of Cañete, Peru, gave rise to the celebration of a festival that bears its name and, as part of one of its activities, a contest with high doses of 'adrenaline' called Tobogán Macho.

At first the contestants just jump down and let themselves be carried away by the inertia and momentum until almost halfway, then they stop and start running.

Not all the contestants have the success Jan Carlos Gómez Delzo had becoming this year's champion.
