The post Copy of “Action Comics” #1, First Superman Comic, Sells for Record $6 Million appeared first on PlayJunkie.
]]>Action Comics #1 was originally released in 1938 and marked the beginning of the superhero genre. It is considered the most coveted comic book among collectors due to its rarity and the fact that it is the first time Superman, created by writers Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster, was unveiled to the world. Several other notable characters appear in the comic, including Superman’s love interest, Lois Lane, and the magician superhero Zatara.
It is estimated that 200,000 copies of Action Comics #1 were printed, with only around 100 remaining. The one sold by Heritage Auctions was notable for being in exceptionally good condition. It received a CGC grade of 8.5, the third-biggest grade given to an unrestored version. There are two copies graded 9.0, which are in the hands of a private collector.
Even the lower-graded copies of Action Comics #1 have been known to fetch significant amounts of money. Just last year, a buyer paid $3.56 million for a copy graded 6.0.

The post received close to 150K views and got a lot of praise from other X users.

]]>The post Stranger Makes a Crochet Beanie for a Well-Behaved Baby on Its First Flight appeared first on PlayJunkie.
]]>In a viral TikTok video, user @kellyryan49 shared the story about how their baby girl Romey received a gift from a kind stranger for behaving well during her first flight.
The TikToker and her family were seated next to a woman who was doing crochet to pass the time during the flight. Romey was mesmerized by the woman’s knitting, which quite possibly played a part in her remaining calm during the flight.
The woman was moved by the baby’s attention, so she changed her mind and decided to make a beanie for Romey and gift it to her once the plane landed. The family was in awe of the gesture, so they decided to share it on social media.
The video has received more than eight million views since being posted in January, and TikTok users seemed amazed by the story.
“I’m a firm believer that babies/children bring out the best in us, if we allow it. How sweet,” one TikToker commented on the video.
“What a beautiful story to tell,” another added.

]]>Park achieved his record time in June during a Rubik’s Cube event in Long Beach, California, and was certified by Guinness World Records. Using a standard 3x3x3 cube, he smashed the previous record held by Yusheng Du, who solved the same cube in 3.47 seconds in 2018.
Park is one of the best-known speedcubers in the world and one of Rubik’s Cube’s official ambassadors. He is no stranger to world records, currently holding records for 4x4x4 cube, 5x5x5 cube, 6x6x6 cube, and 7x7x7 cube in single solve and average solve categories.
Solving Rubik’s Cube is more than just a hobby for Park. He is diagnosed with autism, and Rubik’s Cube provided him with “good therapy,” according to his parents, Schwan and Miki.
“There was a time when Max couldn’t even open water bottles, but he showed interest in solving Rubik’s Cubes,” Schwan and Miki shared with Guinness World Records official website.
Despite all his records and accomplishments, Max Park doesn’t intend to stop anytime soon. He intends to keep honing his skills and getting faster at solving Rubik’s Cube. And we are all here for it.

]]>Thanks to its fame, the cheese wheel race featured participants from all over the world in recent years. This is why it isn’t surprising to hear that Canadian Delaney Irving won the 2023 edition of the event. However, the way she did it is really something.
The 19-year-old Irving managed to get the cheese wheel despite being knocked unconscious during the race.
In a later interview with the Canadian outlet CBC, Irving explained that she was on a backpacking trip through the UK and decided to take part in the famed event. When the race started, she stumbled and ended up landing hard on the ground, which made her unconscious.
However, the momentum was enough to get her over the finishing line first.
“I wasn’t really sure what was going on, but I found the block of cheese was on my lap, so that’s how I knew I won,” she shared.
Irving added that she will return in 2024 but doesn’t want to compete again. Instead, she will just watch.

]]>TikTok user @honeysmyguarddog recently uploaded a clip from her Ring camera that shows a real estate agent pulled up to her driveway. He rings a bell, but no one opens since the homeowners are at work and the kids are at school. Soon, potential buyers join the realtor, and together they start inspecting the outside of the house.
@honeysmyguarddog is watching this on her phone and activates the alarm. The group returns to the front, after which the realtor enters the house through the back door and lets others in. They spend around 20 minutes going through the rooms before walking out.
“Now, mind you, my dog is home. Apparently not a very good guard dog, but she’s home,” the TikToker user explains in a voice-over.
@honeysmyguarddog Had I not had a Ring camera I would never have know this happened at all!! #ringdoorbell #houseforsale #realestatescrewup ♬ Oh No – Kreepa
The original video, which already hit 17 million views, was followed by a part. 2 that shows the police arriving just in time to catch the realtor. The homeowner also comes shortly after, and the officers enter the house to check for stolen items.
@honeysmyguarddog Part 2 of the day the real estate agent showed my house even though it’s not for sale. #ringdoorbell #houseforsale #realestate ♬ Oh No – Kreepa
In a couple of subsequent videos, @honeysmyguarddog explains that the realtor apologized for his actions and explained it was all misunderstanding. According to his story, he was supposed to show the neighbor’s house, who told him to enter through the backdoor.
The TikTok user also added that the police said they could do nothing and that she would have to be satisfied with an apology.
