Besides the fact that it's wet, dirty and gets everywhere, most of us would stay away from DIY beach parking lots because of a little weather pattern called "tides". A forgotten parking brake was actually to blame for this odd ocean Mercedes rescue on the Black Sea "Russian Riviera", but we're sure its driver was still face-palming all the same when he realized his car would never be the same.

Thankfully, thousands of other Russian tourists also share this Krasnodar Krai resort beach and came to this nearly-drowned car's aid.

There's A Wrong... And Right Way To Handle Snakes

We get that capturing a giant 11-foot python is a pretty big deal... so we can't fault the man in pink for wanting an epic selfie to document the moment! Unfortunately, he foolishly positions himself almost face-to-face with the loosely-restrained snake... ouch! Conservationist and reptile expert Kenan Harkin of Kamp Kenan thankfully knows quiet observation at a distance is the right way to enjoy a wild tree-climbing Corn Snake. View Now
Sharing Grapes In The Grossest Possible Way & People-Sized Problem For Horse

Sharing Grapes In The Grossest Possible Way & People-Sized Problem For Horse

So many ideas seem less hot in retrospect. Take this bizarre grape trickshot relay, for example! The idea everyone agrees on is "let's projectile-shoot a grape around for Twitter", but the end result looks a lot more like a group of guys swapping spit back-and-forth. We kind of guessed the conclusion to this bruising horseback riding attempt when we saw the panicked look in that horse's eyes. What makes it worse is that the poor would-be-cowboy is barefoot when he gets bucked off! View Now

A Little Help, Please? & No Workout's Too Extreme For Horse-Man

We think horses would make great candidates for the "Man's Best Friend" award (no offense to dogs)! Though we make equine friends more for sports and companionship than to get around town anymore, this amateur Norwegian horse-jumper-in-training probably has a new appreciation for her tiny mount after Frimann sensitively helps Helena out of an awkward fall. Jon Call doesn't technically count as a horse... but we're giving the species a couple extra points anyway for just looking so awesome and dominating this extreme workout! via Storyful View Now

Rescuers Unite To Free Whale Stuck In Fishing Net

Rescuers Unite To Free Whale Stuck In Fishing Net

Sadly, animals trapped in nets has become something we see far too often. Off the coast of Italy, a whale is hardly able to move with a mass of fishing net tangled around its tail. Rescuers from both the Coast Guard and a military vessel are out attempting to free the whale, but rescuing an animal of this size is no easy task.

We're Giving This Guy A Big Thumbs Up

We all have something about ourselves that's unique to us, and for Jacob Pina, it's his thumb. For reasons unknown to him, Jacob's thumb is a whopping 5 inches long — making it pretty disproportionate to the rest of his fingers. We think it's awesome that Jacob has no time for the haters and is embracing the things in life that make him different with such a positive attitude. View Now
