May 3 2021

Whilst celebrating 13 years of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Marvel dropped a goosebump inducing trailer confirming a slew of films for the upcoming years. Opening with a speech by the late Stan Lee, the trailer reminds fans of everything the MCU has been through from the first Iron Man to the masterful Avengers: Endgame.

But the MCU is not even close to being done. This year alone will see the release of Black Widow’s solo film, Shang Chi, the Eternals and SpiderMan: No Way Home. But the titles continued on to reveal Guardians of the Galaxy: Vol. 3, Thor: Love and Thunder, Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, and among many others, a not so subtle hint at the Fantastic Four’s entry into the MCU. We hope you’re as excited as we are.

Boris Johnson says social distancing rules could be removed next month

May 3 2021

UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson said that there is a good chance social distancing rules could be dispensing with social distance measures. Speaking to reporters, that removing the one-metre plus rule could very well be a possibility. Masks and screens could still however remain to mitigate risks, with big venues operating at reduced capacity. Pubs are however expected to operate at full capacity.

The news comes after 22 of the UK’s leading scientists suggested to authorities that COVID-19 measures such as social distancing should be done away with in June. Johnson went on to talk about foreign holidays, saying that he expects some openings on May 17. He went on to state that he doesn’t want to see an influx of disease, which is why the easing of measures is still being done cautiously.

First ever see-through Sky Pool in London is suspended 115 feet above the ground

May 3 2021

An 82-foot (25 meter) transparent swimming pool has just been installed in southwest London’s nine Elms neighbourhood. The clear box is suspended 115 feet above the streets of London, between the 10th stories of two residential skyscrapers. Open only to the apartment complex’s lucky residents, it is the largest freestanding acrylic pool structure on the globe. It is located next to the US embassy and close to the south bank of Thames, with a view consisting of London’s skyline with London Eye and Westminster.

The pool is 10 feet deep and the water weighs an alleged 375 tonnes. The pool was put intense strength testing before making its actual public debut, lifted up by a 750 tonne mobile crane supported in turn by another 50 tonne crane. Would you bathe in this pool?
