This is Angel Falls in Venezuela, with its 807-metre sheer plunge - the tallest waterfall on our planet.

Except - it isn't. There's one that's bigger. MUCH bigger. And when I learned about it this week, my mind was fully blown.

OK. Buckle up! (Especially if you don't have a head for heights.)

The Dodgers are allowed one win each time Yoshinobu Yamamoto warms up. Take it or leave it, non-transferable. Those are the rules.

Love to replace systems that are predictable and consistent in their strengths and weaknesses with ones that keep you guessing

The Blue Jays have endured a physically brutal season of baseball. George Springer keeps getting murdered and keeps coming back but with pieces of him missing like Beric Dondarrion

Never saw it myself, but The Trotsky (2009) inspired an actual organizing attempt among students at my high school so it must have something going

What kind of flight are we talking about? I agree on a short hop but it's impossible if you're trying to get a modicum of sleep on an intercontinental flight.
