Viral

A Super Tuesday voter has gone viral for his explicit explanation of why Nikki Haley shouldn't be president -- according to him, it's 'cause she' is missing a scrotum.

Check out this video that features a North Carolina resident -- identified as Emmett Martin -- confessing to NBC News that he never even considered the former governor of South Carolina as a candidate over the simple fact that she's a woman.

The way he puts it is pretty rich in misogyny ... he says, she "has no balls to scratch."

Emmett says that since the ex-Gov. didn't have male private parts ... she shouldn't be a contender in the Republican primary race. We're not sure what genitalia has to do with running a country ... but it's clearly important to this constituent.

BTW, it isn't just Nikki that the voter disapproved of ... it's all women, apparently who he said are only good for "having babies and taking care of the house."

He did backtrack slightly -- suggesting that there are women out there who know what they’re doing ... but added they need a bit of guidance from someone like Donald Trump.

Shaquille Brewster -- the correspondent who interviewed Emmett ... said this isn't the first time that voters have told him they wouldn't vote for Nikki based on her gender. However, it is the first time the response was so bluntly said on camera.

A big air jump went horribly wrong for a skier when he collided with A CHAIRLIFT -- and it was all caught on video!

You can't make this up ... skier Ivan Jones was at the Lake Louise Ski Resort in Alberta, Canada over the weekend when the incident happened.

Jones shared the clip on Instagram ... you see the 17-year-old launch himself into the air, attempting a flat spin 360 in the air near the Top of The World Chair lift.

His stunt, unfortunately, was attempted at precisely the wrong time ... as a chairlift was going by, and Jones smacked right into it before crashing down to the snow covered ground.

Thankfully the ski lift chair was empty and Jones was left with just a few bumps and bruises.

Witnesses, and everyone who watched the clip, had pretty much the same reaction ... disbelief!

A Lake Louise Ski Resort spokesperson said they're happy Jones wasn't seriously injured, but advised guests to do stunts only in select areas.

"There's a reason why we have terrain parks," the spokesperson said. "To give people the opportunity to practice and do these kind of stunts."

¡Un gran salto en el aire terminó terriblemente mal para un esquiador tras chocar contra una silla del telesquí, y todo fue capturado en video!

El esquiador Ivan Jones estaba en el Lake Louise Ski Resort en Alberta, Canadá, durante el fin de semana cuando ocurrió el incidente.

Jones compartió el clip en Instagram, donde se ve al chico de 17 años lanzándose en el aire y tratando de dar una vuelta en 360 grados, muy cerca del telesquí.

Desgraciadamente, su maniobra se produjo en el momento menos oportuno. Justo cuando estaba haciendo el salto, pasó una telesilla vacía, con la que Jones se estrelló y cayó al suelo cubierto de nieve.

Afortunadamente, no había nadie en la silla y Jones solo sufrió algunos golpes y magulladuras.

Los testigos, y todos los que vieron el clip, tuvieron más o menos la misma reacción, ¡incredulidad!

Un portavoz de Lake Louise Ski Resort dijo que están contentos de que Jones no resultara gravemente herido, pero le aconsejó a los huéspedes que solo hicieran acrobacias en las áreas selectas.

"Hay una razón por la que tenemos parques de terreno", dijo el portavoz. "Para dar a la gente la oportunidad de practicar y hacer este tipo de acrobacias".

11:48 AM PT -- Michael Farchi joined "TMZ Live" to take our viewers through the scorpion sting debacle that went viral earlier this morning. He actually now claims The Venetian never comped his room and made him pay for food and various other expenses.

A Las Vegas hotel guest was STUNG in his testicles by a scorpion while asleep in bed – causing him to wake up in incredible pain and utter shock and terror.

On Monday, Michael Farchi sat down with KLAS 8 News Now to discuss his horrifying real-life nightmare at The Venetian Las Vegas on December 26.

Farchi told the reporter he was sleeping in his underwear under the bed sheets in his room when, at around 8 AM, he suddenly felt pain in his groin area.

He described the sensation as "somebody stabbing me in my private area" with a "sharp glass or a knife."

Farchi said he dashed into the bathroom only to discover the orange scorpion attached to his underwear. YIKES!!!

The California man managed to slip out of his briefs and snap photos of the nasty creature dangling from his undies. He then went to the hospital for treatment because he said he was in "a lot of pain."

The next day, Farchi and his family checked out of the hotel, but not before he filed an incident report with staff, detailing what allegedly happened. “Everybody was in shock, nobody believed,” Farchi told KLAS, pointing out management comped his room.

Farchi added that he had no clue how the scorpion got into his bed.

In a statement to KLAS, a Venetian rep said the resort followed all protocols for this type of incident. Farchi's attorney went on to say that guests should always inspect their rooms and the surrounding areas upon checking in.

Farchi says he's now exploring possible legal action against The Venetian.

Unas prostitutas tailandesas de Bangkok se enzarzaron en una pelea en el Barrio Rojo por una supuesta "guerra territorial" que involucró a la policía, ¡y las imágenes de la riña son absolutamente salvajes!

Echa un vistazo a este video que captura algunos momentos de la pelea del lunes, cuando se informó que un puñado de trabajadores sexuales de Filipinas estaba utilizando un popular hotel en la calle Sukhumvit, y al parecer, otras prostitutas querían proteger su territorio.

Los policías llegaron a la escena por una disputa con algunas de las trabajadoras filipinas, quienes fueron aparentemente acusadas de robarle clientes a las prostitutas tailandesas de la zona y cuando los policías las escoltaron fuera del edificio y hacia la calle, había una gran multitud esperando por ellas.

Ahí fue cuando empezó el alboroto: las prostitutas y los policías se enfrentaron y se lanzaron puñetazos unos con otros. Francamente, es difícil saber quién es quién aquí, pero en cualquier caso, un montón de personas recibieron golpes.

Honestamente, esto parece salido de una película. Fue un caos total.

Al final, los oficiales fueron capaces de llevar a las trabajadoras sexuales que estaban allí a la estación de policía, pero parece que todas estaban bastante maltratadas cuando entraron.

Thai prostitutes in Bangkok got into an all-out brawl in the Red Light District over a reported turf war that roped cops into the melee ... and the footage of all this is absolutely wild!

Check out this video that captures some of the highlights from Monday, where a handful of sex workers from the Philippines are reported to have been using a popular hotel on the busy Sukhumvit Road ... and, apparently, other prostitutes felt protective of their territory.

Officers were called over a dispute between some of the Filipino sex workers -- reportedly accused of stealing customers from a Thai prostitute in the area -- and as the cops escorted them out of the building and into the street ... there was a huge crowd waiting for them.

That's when the bruhaha started ... with prostitutes and cops clashing, and fists being thrown. Frankly, it's hard to tell who's who here -- but in any case, a lot of ass was kicked.

This honestly looks like something out of a movie scene ... it was that nuts and chaotic.

In the end ... the officers were able to bring the sex workers they were originally there for to the police station -- but it looks like they were all fairly roughed up as they went inside.

Renee Graziano says she nearly lost her life when she overdosed last year on a bad batch of drugs -- which she calls her come-to-Jesus moment ... and which finally got her clean.

The "Mob Wives" star is the latest guest for Bunnie XO's "Dumb Blonde" podcast ... and in a sneak peek clip from their chat -- set to air in full on Wednesday -- you can hear Renee get into the details of an OD she suffered in 2023 ... which ultimately sent her to Odom Recovery Group.

The story is harrowing, to say the least -- RG describes what drug it was that ended up being laced with fentanyl, unbeknownst to her ... and she says it landed her in the hospital.

Take a listen for yourself ... Renee says she had no clue she was dabbling in bad drugs -- but before she knew it, she'd lost memory over the course of 3 days ... and was bedridden for a total of 9, a period in which she says her family never came to see or visit her.

Renee goes on to say she had to learn to walk again from this horrific episode -- and it ended up being what made her realize she had to kick her drug habit ... which she has.

As we reported ... Renee entered into treatment back in November -- a couple months after this overdose -- and it sounds like she's been on the straight and narrow ever since.

Good to hear she's doing well ... and it sounds like a lot more will be discussed on the pod.

A plane turned into a fireball after it crashed near a busy Tennessee highway Monday, killing five people on board as the terrifying scene was captured on video.

The small aircraft was flying from Kentucky to Nashville last evening when the pilot made a radio call to a nearby control tower, requesting an emergency landing after the single-engine had failed and all the power had gone down.

Air traffic controllers gave the go-ahead for the plane to land on Runway 2 at John C. Tune Airport in Nashville. But, moments later, the pilot got back on the radio to report they were not going to make it to the runway.

What happened next was filmed by highway security cameras. Check it out ... the jet cuts across the packed interstate, exploding in flames behind a Costco store. The pilot and four passengers were instantly killed.

Nashville Fire Department trucks raced to the scene and put out the flames without damaging critical evidence for the investigation.

The National Transportation Safety Board and the Federal Aviation Administration are now probing the crash to determine the cause.

Local officials, meanwhile, shut down the eastbound lanes of I-40 while investigators sifted through the wreckage, with some of the lanes reopening for Tuesday morning rush hour.

The sheriff for the area where 13-year-old Madeline Soto disappeared and died is under fire for seemingly posting a photo from the crime scene, and now the department is apologizing.

This debacle is playing out down in Osceola County, Florida -- where Madeline's body was discovered Friday by officials there in a wooded area after she went missing from her home in neighboring Orange County last week.

On Saturday -- a day after Madeline was found deceased -- a photo of human remains was reportedly posted to the official Instagram account for Osceola County Sheriff Marcos Lopez. The photo, believed to be a confidential image from the crime scene and since deleted, is said to show a body matching Madeline's description lying dead on the ground.

Now, the Osceola County Sheriff's Office is telling local news outlets the photo was accidentally included in a post about a community event for seniors. They add ... "We deeply apologize for any confusion or disturbance this may have caused."

The Sheriff's office is neither confirming nor denying the photo depicted Madeline's body.

Somehow, this all gets worse for the Osceola County Sheriff's Office ... because the same morning the alleged Soto photo was posted on IG, another member of the sheriff's office shared a selfie with Stephan Sterns, the boyfriend of Madeline's mother ... and the prime suspect in her disappearance and death, who has since been taken into custody.

Nirva Rodriguez, the OCSD executive director, shared the image on her personal Facebook page ... showing Sterns being led out of a building in handcuffs. She reportedly captured her post ... "If God’s love has been poured out over your life, don’t allow evil to keep you away from what He has prepared for you." Unclear what her intent behind the post/message was.

In any case ... the selfie was reportedly snapped after Sterns was booked on charges of child pornography and sexually battering a child.

Law enforcement has not specifically tied those charges to Madeline's case just yet ... nor have they officially charged him in her disappearance or death. He has yet to enter a plea.

Rodriguez's FB post with Sterns has also been deleted, FWIW ... and it's worth noting she oversees multiple divisions with OCSD, including media, outreach and community services.

Hay más secuelas de la fallida Experiencia Willy Wonka, solo que esta vez es algo positivo. Resulta que van a hacer una película de esto... o al menos de un personaje.

Resulta que una productora con sede en Escocia está planeando hacer una película de terror relacionada con el desastre viral, pero se están centrando en un cameo memorable que tomó Internet por sorpresa... Nos referimos a "The Unknown."

Por medio de Bloody Disgusting, Kaledonia Pictures ha anunciado un nuevo proyecto en el horizonte que esperan filmar y estrenar este año con el nombre del villano.

La compañía dice: "La película sigue a un renombrado ilustrador y a su esposa, quienes están atormentados por la trágica muerte de su hijo, Charlie. Desesperados por escapar de su dolor, la pareja deja el mundo atrás para ir a las remotas Tierras Altas de Escocia, donde un mal desconocido los espera".

La productora añade: "Estamos emocionados de comenzar la producción y esperamos compartir más con ustedes tan pronto como sea posible. En realidad estamos a pocos kilómetros del evento, por lo que es bastante surrealista ver a Glasgow en todas las redes sociales, en todo el mundo".

Si no te has enterado de todo esto, el villano fue uno de los aspectos más destacados de la experiencia Wonka, retratado como algún espíritu maligno oscuro que fue integrado a la trama sin mayor explicación.

Vamos a admitir que es un personaje bastante espeluznante -al menos los niños pensaron así- y la chica detrás de la máscara se presentó para confirmar que el trabajo de aquel día fue tan horrible como los otros actores han dicho que fue.

More fallout from the failed Willy Wonka Experience -- only this time, it's somewhat positive ... 'cause they're gonna make a movie out of this, or at least one character and one genre.

As it turns out, a Scotland-based production company is planning to make a horror film in connection to the viral disaster -- but they're honing in on a memorable cameo in the whole thing that kinda took the internet by storm. Of course ... we're referring to The Unknown.

Per Bloody Disgusting ... Kaledonia Pictures has announced a new project on the horizon that they're hoping to film and release this year, and yes it's named after the big bad.

The company says, "The film ... follows a renowned illustrator and his wife who are haunted by the tragic death of their son, Charlie. Desperate to escape their grief, the couple leave the world behind for the remote Scottish Highlands -- where an unknowable evil awaits them."

KP adds ... "We are excited to begin production and look forward to sharing more with you as soon as possible. We are actually only a few miles from the event, so it is quite surreal to see Glasgow all over social media, worldwide."

If you didn't catch all this ... The Unknown was one of the hilarious highlights from the Wonka experience -- portrayed as some obscure evil spirit that was randomly thrown into the mix.

We'll admit it was a pretty creepy character -- at least the kids thought so -- and the girl behind the mask came forward to confirm the job that day was as awful as the other actors have also said it was.

Ryan Garcia wants his family and fans to know he is alive and "okay" ... but his current situation is far from pleasant -- claiming he has been stripped of access to his phone, Instagram and finances.

TMZ Sports has obtained a video statement from King Ryan himself ... where he explains he has no idea what is happening, but he believes he's being exploited.

"Hey guys, it's Ryan," the 24-1 boxing superstar says in the clip. "I'm coming on here to explain what's going on. I'm not in possession of my phone, I can't get access to my Instagram. My cards are locked. I'm being really taking advantage [of]."

"I would personally want to just send out a video to the people that love me and my fans, family that's concerned that I'm okay. I'm not dead, I believe in Jesus, all those [rumors] are lies."

Ryan goes on to state an unidentified party is trying to put him in jail ... and when he's reached out to people for help, he's been met with radio silence.

"I don't know what's going on but just know I'm okay," he continued.

The video comes following genuine concern from fans who have grown worrisome over Garcia's recent odd social media activity -- including a video that claimed something bad had happened to Ryan.

An absolutely horrific natural disaster went down in South America this weekend that saw two vehicles get completely crushed in a rockslide ... which, somehow, didn't claim any lives.

Two drivers in San Mateo, Peru were cruising along a highway in the middle of a mountain range ... when, all of a sudden, a rockslide occurred -- with a handful of massive boulders descending at full speed and making contact with the cars down below.

The video's wild -- you see a truck up ahead of the one that's recording from its dashcam, and it gets flattened/tossed by a boulder. Not long after ... the truck recording also gets hit.

Per CNN ... both drivers survived the ordeal, although it's unclear if they sustained injuries.

What makes that even more shocking is when you see what this nightmare looked like from the inside. The driver of the truck with the dash cam footage had another angle showing himself fleeing ... and he narrowly escaped getting squashed, if only by seconds/inches.

There are pics circulating of the aftermath from this ... and it gives you a full sense of how many rocks ended up coming down the mountainside, and how destructive this really was.

As you can see ... the entire highway ended up being blocked by boulders and debris, and first responders were on the scene trying to clear the road as best as they could. According to reports, it took about four hours for them to get the flow of traffic moving again.

As for what may have caused this ... authorities suspect heavy rain possibly destabilized some of the terrain there. That's something folks here in SoCal can relate to these days.

Un desastre natural absolutamente horrible ocurrió en América del Sur este fin de semana, cuando dos vehículos quedaron completamente aplastados por un desprendimiento de rocas que, de alguna manera, no cobró ninguna vida.

Dos conductores en San Mateo, Perú, viajaban lo largo de una carretera en medio de la cordillera, cuando de repente, un deslizamiento de rocas se produjo y un puñado de enormes rocas descendió a toda velocidad e hizo contacto con los carros que iban pasando más abajo

El video es impactante, se puede ver claramente como una roca gigantesca cae desde lo alto de manera brutal, extremadamente cerca de un camión y del vehículo que está grabando.

CNN dijo que ambos conductores sobrevivieron a la terrible experiencia, aunque no está claro si sufrieron lesiones.

Lo que hace todo aún más impactante, es ver como se vivió el momento desde el interior. El conductor del camión tenía una dashcam y pudo capturar como se salvó de ser aplastado por unos pocos segundos y unq corta distancia.

Hay fotos circulando de las secuelas... y el nivel destructivo de las rocas es realmente increíble.

Como se puede ver, toda la carretera terminó siendo bloqueada por rocas y escombros, y los socorristas estaban en la escena tratando de despejar la carretera lo mejor que pudieron. Según los informes, tardaron unas cuatro horas en restablecer la circulación.

Las autoridades sospechan que las fuertes lluvias han desestabilizado parte del terreno. Eso es algo que la gente aquí en California puede identificarse estos días.

La policía de Cleveland se vio envuelta en una persecución por carretera este fin de semana muy inusual, ¡ya que los sospechosos en cuestión eran dos sementales!

Échale un vistazo a este video viral del sábado -cortesía del Departamento de Transporte de Ohio- que muestra a dos caballos corriendo contra el tráfico en la Interestatal 90, con los carros pasando peligrosamente cerca de los bellos animales.

Oficiales de la policía de Cleveland fueron vistos haciendo todo lo posible para guiarlos con seguridad lejos de los carros y fuera de la interestatal hacia la hierba más cercana, y finalmente, consiguieron ponerlos bajo control.

En cuanto a donde estos caballos vinieron y cómo podrían haber escapado... la versión oficial es que en realidad eran caballos de la policía que de alguna manera se escaparon de sus establos.

Afortunadamente, nadie resultó herido. Muchos están aplaudiendo el manejo de la policía en una situación tan inusual. No estamos seguros de que estaríamos tan relajados si dos caballos enormes trotaran directamente hacia nosotros, pero bueno, felicitaciones a la policía de Cleveland por mantener la calma y controlar a los suyos.

Cleveland Police were involved in a highway chase this weekend that had serious horsepower -- and we mean that literally ... as the suspects in question were 2 rogue stallions!

Check out this viral video from Saturday -- courtesy of the Ohio Department of Transportation -- which shows two horses running against traffic on Interstate 90, with cars being brought to a brief standstill as the two animals galloped freely in the wind.

Officers for Cleveland PD were seen trying their best to safely guide them away from cars and off the interstate to nearby grass -- and eventually, they got the broncos under control.

As for where these horses came from and how they might have escaped ... the official word is, they were actually with the cops and somehow broke out of their police stables nearby.

Luckily, nobody was harmed in all this -- including the horses themselves. Many are applauding the police's calm handling of the unusual situation. We're not sure we'd be so relaxed if two massive horses trotted directly at us -- but hey, kudos to Cleveland Police for keeping their cool and wrangling their own.
