China has sent 60,000 tons of rice to Cuba to help tackle a serious food crisis

The shipment, approved earlier this year, is a big deal. Cuba’s population of around 11 million consumes about 600,000 tons of rice annually, so this single donation covers more than a month of the country’s needs

Rice is a staple food in Cuba, with people consuming 60–70 kg per person each year. But the country has been struggling with major shortages. It relies heavily on imports, spending over $300 million annually, while local production has dropped drastically over the years due to lack of fuel, fertilizer, equipment, and water

Along with rice, China is also providing $80 million in financial aid to support electricity and other urgent needs

The situation has drawn global attention, with countries like Brazil also sending food supplies, including rice, beans, and milk

Overall, this aid highlights both the scale of Cuba’s crisis and the growing international support to help the country recover

Please keep this bright soul and his family in your heart, 1 of the 2 pilots for Jazz/Air Canada - Antoine Forest

In June 1990, British Airways Flight 5390 incident turned into one of aviation’s most unbelievable survival stories

At 17,000 feet, the cockpit windshield suddenly blew out due to incorrect bolts, causing explosive decompression. Captain Tim Lancaster was instantly pulled halfway out of the aircraft, with only his legs caught inside while the rest of his body was exposed to freezing, high-speed winds.

Flight attendant Nigel Ogden rushed in and grabbed his legs just in time. For nearly 20 minutes, the crew held on, refusing to let go even when they feared the worst, knowing it could risk the entire aircraft.

Meanwhile, the co-pilot managed an emergency landing against all odds.

Amazingly, Tim survived with injuries and made a full recovery. Just five months later, he returned to flying, turning a near-impossible situation into a story of courage, teamwork, and survival

Absolute crazies!
