Elderly Couple Thought Crashed Drone was an Alien SpaceshipAn elderly couple was in their home when an object from the sky crashed in their garden.Surprised and shaken, the two then went near the mysterious item that crashed in their home in Tokat, Turkey. The man grabbed a stick and pointed it at the crashed object, which was actually a drone (and was actually recording the entire encounter). After initially warning his wife to stay away from the device, the two agreed that it was something that looked from outer space.  “Yes, it came from space! Don’t touch it, it has a bright light on it. Do you think it is going to explode? Do not get close to it. It has a light on,” the elderly man said, agreeing with his wife. The owner of the drone, Umut Izgi arrived a few minutes after to pick up the aircraft. However, the couple was still scared and worried that they have been invaded by extraterrestrial creatures and called someone, a local teacher who reassured them that they are safe from aliens. Izgi uploaded the footage of the incident six years later when the couple died to avoid embarrassing them. He was surprised that the video went viral and has gathered six million views. “I am happy that it is going viral, as it puts a smile on people’s faces in these hard times,” he said.Image credit: Umut Izgi/Zenger#drone #aircraft #Turkey #couple #elderly

This Couple Has Been Married for 91 Years and They're Still in Love with Each OtherAdam Sandler's "Grow Old With You" made a lot of sense to me as I was reading the story of a couple who has been married and in love for 91 years now.Zechariah and Shama'a were Jewish orphans in Yemen who married very young. They were married at the age of 10 and 12. Marrying at a young age was common for orphans, to ensure that they will not be wed outside their faith and culture. Aside from the usual challenges in their relationship, the couple has faced extreme poverty and persecution. They were one of the pioneer Yemen Jews to move to Israel when the state was founded. They had 11 children and 64 grand and great-grandchildren.Living in a generation where romance is viewed differently, this one is a very inspiring story that shows that love is real and alive. Both still feel blessed that they were brought into each other's lives.Image credit: BBC News Video#love #couple #romance #relationship
