Supermodel without trying

Painted a client’s cat… got judged by the model herself

Meet Abdul Malik, a teacher from Kerala, India — who has been crossing the Kadalundi River by swimming to reach school… since 1994.

Every morning, with his books and clothes sealed in a plastic bag, he floats on a rubber tube and swims 15–30 minutes across the river. Then he changes and walks to class… like it’s just another normal day.

Why?

Because the alternative is a 12 km journey with multiple buses taking nearly 3 hours each way.

So he chose the river.

During monsoons, the current turns fierce.
Debris floats past.
Even snakes appear in the water.

But he never stops.

In over 20 years, he has never been late. Not once.

His students call him “Tube Master” — and greet him every morning knowing exactly what it takes for him to be there.

But that’s not all…

He also teaches kids how to swim, organizes river clean-ups, and turns the very river he crosses into a classroom for life lessons.

By his own estimate, he’s swum nearly 700 km over the years.

And yet, he says:

“I don’t have big dreams… I just want to reach school on time and be a good role model.”

No fame. No excuses. No missed days.

Just a man… crossing a river every day…
so his students can cross into a better future.

My dog accidentally posed like a professional model

Nobody can believe this man is old enough to be a grandfather — and he just turned 60!

Singaporean photographer Chuando Tan recently celebrated his 60th birthday, and the internet can’t stop talking about his incredibly youthful appearance. The fitness enthusiast and former model looks so young that many people say he could easily pass for someone in his early 30s.

Tan says his secret is simple but disciplined: 30% exercise and 70% diet, along with proper sleep and a positive mindset. His followers on Instagram are often shocked when they learn his real age, with many joking that they need to see his birth certificate to believe it.

Through his lifestyle and dedication, Chuando Tan has become a powerful example of how healthy habits can make a huge difference over time. At 60, he’s not slowing down — he’s proving that age truly can be just a number.
