True or False.

 

In a small Yorkshire village cinema, a massive brawl broke out, reason? apparently the cinema was really small and the cinema's capacity was only 60, also new films at this cinema are only shown once. Anyway one evening "Gravity" was being shown and tickets for this showing was sold out by lunch time prior to its 6:30pm showing. Anyway despite being sold out people who didn't have tickets still turned up and expected to still go in. Anyway there was heated discussion between customers and staff, later some how the customers managed to over power the staff and eventually got into the all ready backed cinema screen, cause of the staff weren't sure which customers had bought tickets and who hadn't, there were even loads of customers standing on the aisle of each. At this point there was well other 150 people in the cinema, eventually the staff asked to see people's tickets as you could imagine some were refusing to show there's and many were refusing to leave, by the end of it a massive brawl broke out by the angry customers who attacked the staff, most of the staff managed to get away and called the police. While still in cinema many customers were fighting among st themselves. The police later arrived and some arrests were made, by 7pm the film that was supposed to be shown was cancelled and customers who bought tickets were given refunds and offered free tickets to another showing at another nearby cinema.

A new poll of attitudes to the UK from YouGov China reveals a high degree of respect amongst Chinese for Britain's place in the world

The explosive rise of the world's developing economies in the past ten years, coupled with the impact of the financial crisis on the West, has led to a degree of insecurity amongst Western democracies such as the United Kingdom. A YouGov poll from 2012 showed that British voters are pessimistic about Britain's future – nearly half said China was 'on the rise' compared to only 6% who said the same for the UK.

But YouGov is now operating in China and for the first time is able to shed light on what China’s online population* thinks of us. The results will give pause to the doommongers. In China, most people see the UK as influential on the world stage, and there is no consensus that Britain’s future is one of decline.

  • 92% think it is important for the UK and China to have a close relationship

  • 84% think the UK has 'some' or 'significant' influence on the world stage, only 14% say 'not very much' or 'none'

Britain comes THIRD in the rankings of Chinese views of the most important leaders on the world stage – behind America and Russia but ahead of Germany, Japan, India and South Korea

Although most think that the UK's influence has slightly decreased in the past 20 years, more people think the UK's influence will INCREASE again in the next 20 years (40%), than decrease (24%). 25% think it will stay the same.

68% would like to learn English, far outpacing any other world languages.

That's good positive reading, China is certainly a relationship we should be looking to embrace. They are going to be the next biggest superpower on the planet.

No wonder Heather Locklear looks so good, ive been treating her face for years (it does work on videos and pictures doesnt it?)

 

By the way... just one of the lines from the story.... ... "Writing on her website, she said: 'I came across one of the most beautiful women I'd ever seen."

 

So, im confused ;)

Nail-biting footage shows British 'freerunner' climb to the top of Ukraine bridge and perform a back-flip, only for it to end badly (though not how you expect!)

  • James Kingston climbs 380 feet to the top of the Moscow Bridge in Kiev
  • Then performs a back-flip on a platform at the top of the bridge
  • But despite nailing his landing, the end of the stunt doesn't quite go to plan

This is the moment a British 'freerunner' scaled the top of a bridge and performed a back-flip while hundreds of feet in the air.

James Kingston, who describes himself as a 'professional adventurer', climbed 380 feet to the top of the Moscow Bridge in Kiev along with friend Mustang Wanted.

The pair are then seen dangling each other over the edge of the bridge, before the nail biting footage shows Mr Kingston do a back flip without wearing any safety gear.

But the stunt doesn't quite go to plan, not because he lands badly, but because after making his descent from the bridge, he falls right into the arms of local police who arrest him.

The footage starts with the pair climbing the 380 feet to the top of the Moscow Bridge, not seeming to use any sort of safety equipment.

Mr Kingston is then seen scaling the metal beams to reach the top platform, where he and his friend dangle over the edge - where one slip could cause the other to fall to certain death.

Don't look down: Okay, do look down and see the concrete and cars below

In the footage, Mr Kingstonscales the metal cables to reach the top platform, where he then performs a back-flip

 

 

 

Mr Kingston then completes the back flip on top of the platform, nailing his landing.

But as the pair climb down, sirens can be heard and the police are waiting for them.

They try to tell the officers that they are photographers and are just taking pictures of the panoramic views of Kiev.

 
 

I believe I can fly: Kingston's friend jump over the side in a death-defying test of friendship

Mid-air: Kingston performs the stomach-churning somersault atop one of the bridges 377ft pylons

 

 

 

 
 

Taking it all in: Kingston calls himself a professional adventurer, although there doesn't appear to be much professionalism in his stunts

 

 

 
 

But despite landing his back flip, his stunt didn't quite go to plan when he climbs back down

 
 

Waiting reception: Kingston made his way carefully down the side of the bridge to a bunch of cops were were waiting to question him

 

 

 
 

The Moscow Bridge in Kiev, which Mr Kingston scaled, crosses the Dnieper River
