Man's Mind-Blowing 'Wheel of Fortune' Win It was an epic "Wheel of Fortune" moment: Just when it seemed that all hope was lost, 25-year-old nursing student Emil De Leon solved the puzzle off of just two letters. De Leon seemingly pulled "new baby buggy" out of a hat - and from just his first try. "I just thought, 'What could a baby possibly use?'" said De Leon, who had just been studying pediatrics. "Baby was on the brain." Pat Sajak was so skeptical that he frisked De Leon, and then the long-time host tweeted, "Most amazing solve in my 30+ years on the show. No kidding."

Dying Zoo Worker Gets Goodbye Kiss From Giraffe A terminally ill zoo worker got a goodbye kiss from a giraffe after he was wheeled in to see the zoo animals one last time. The 54-year-old mentally handicapped man named Mario had worked as a cleaner at the Rotterdam Zoo in the Netherlands for approximately 25 years. After being diagnosed with terminal cancer, he wanted to say goodbye to the animals. After Mario was brought to the zoo on a stretcher by the Dutch Ambulance Wish Foundation, one of the zoo's giraffes reached down and nuzzled Mario for a goodbye kiss.
