A  Aug 2, 2021   NEWS OF THE STRANGE Yet another airborne turtle hurtles through someone's windshield in Florida Image source: St. Lucie County Fire District Florida is a rough place to be a turtle.    You've heard, I'm sure, of all the memes about "Florida Man," but Florida Turtle is rapidly rising through the meme ranks. The reptiles are making a name for themselves to rival Florida's alligator shenanigans… in the most unconventional way possible.   I mean, of all the things for a turtle to do, surely flying wasn't what anyone was expecting — much less for it to happen twice. A flying turtle crashed through a windshield and put an elderly woman in the hospital just in April. When we reported it here, I'm sure we all thought that was the end of a weird, one-time event. But no. Apparently, turtles have big dreams — because the same thing happened again, also in Florida! At least it wasn't the same person?

In the 2012 Summer Olympics, he also lied about the extent of a foot injury sustained by then US gymnast McKayla Maroney.    In a new video posted to the 25-year-old's Instagram account, she claims that was forced to compete even though she had broken her foot after arriving in London. Nassar apparently denied the break, even though he "was the one who helped with the X-rays and passed along the information."   Maroney also says that the broken foot was the result of being forced to train on the beam, which was not her specialty, even though she was jetlagged at the time.    "I felt terrible," she said. "I looked at my coach before the beam routine like, 'Really? You're going to make me get on this thing right now?'"     What else do we know about this?
