Pilot Killed in Stunt

A pilot with 50 years of trick flying, over one thousand performances, and the International Council of Airshow's Sword of Excellence under his belt crashed his plane during a show and was killed. This astonished many people as they watched his plane go up in flames. It took firefighters over three minutes to bring water to the scene and put the fire out. The response time in this is questionable, as is how this unfortunate accident was made by such an experienced flyer.

Harry Potter Author Regrets Relationship Between Ron and Hermione

In 2011, JK Rowling, author of the Harry Potter series said that she had seriously considered killing off Ron Weasley , and just recently confessed something else. She states that she really regrets putting the romantic dynamic between Ron and Hermione. She says that she did it as a form of wish fulfillment and not as a from of good literature. She hopes that it doesn't break anyone's heart, but it was more of personal reasons than anything else, and if she could go back and change it she would.  It's interesting to wonder what kind of story Rowling has that mirrors the relationship between Ron and Hermione.
