Kanzi, a Bonobo ape living in Iowa, can speak to researchers using a touchscreen. He has also learned to make flint tools, build and light a fire, and roast marshmallows. Spanish husbands are legally obligated to do chores under a 2005 law that requires them to help around the house. 15-year-old British sailor Wenman Wykeham-Musgrave survived torpedo attacks on three different ships that were sunk in one hour off the Dutch coast during World War I.

No es fácil ser el señor mamá. I wonder if Kanzi can make s’mores with those roasted marshmallows. As for Wenman, that’s quite a lucky lad being in those disasters/

I believe that the young man survived the sinking of the British armored cruisers ABOUKIR, HOGUE and CRESSY by a German U-boat in 1914. As each ship was torpedoed, the one behind her stopped and lowered boats to rescue survivors, thus making perfect targets. The Royal Navy from that point on forbade their ships from stopping like that for rescue work.

No, Daniel, Wenman Wykeham-Musgrave went on to live another 74 or 75 years. The fourth floating object he swam to was just a piece of wood, on which he passed out and was rescued by friendly Dutchmen. They were not torpedoed.
