Scientists have created a Woolly Mammoth meatball made out of cell biopsies of the ancient animal. An Australian company called Vow takes cell biopsies of exotic animals in order to create sustainable meat options. The Woolly Mammoth cells were combined with sheep stem cells in order to replicate and grow 20 billion cells to make the ancient meat. However, the scientists caution that modern immune systems may have an issue reacting to the old meat. So they don’t actually know what will happen if a human eats it today. The meatball is going to be unveiled at Amsterdam’s NEMO Science Museum tomorrow.

Very Inappropriate Wedding Vows
A groom in Florida is getting slammed for his very inappropriate vows during his wedding. They were so inappropriate that I cannot write them or speak them out loud. And he recited the vows not only in front of his future wife, all of his wedding guests, but also his mother, who was serving as the wedding officiant. He began the vows by looking at his future wife and saying, “You’re screwed.” Then he went on to make several inappropriate sexual jokes and said he would rather be marrying Margot Robbie. The bride took everything in stride and laughed through the whole thing, so it appears that she knows exactly who she is marrying. The mother of the groom mentioned that he’s grounded for his crazy vows.
