The Oxford Dictionary defines “First World problem” as “a relatively trivial or minor problem … implying a contrast with serious problems such as those that may be experienced in the developing world.” But the TL; DR of that dictionary entry might look something like the new video by YouTube Stuntbear.

In the U.S., lightning strikes about 25 million times a year and kills an average of 49 people, according to the National Weather Service. Worldwide, lightning strikes on commercial planes are daily occurrences.
That somewhat frightening figure has some people asking: Is it safe to fly in lightning? The answer, one expert says, is a resounding “yes.”

“Hey Chicago, whaddaya say? / The Cubs are gonna win today.”
The refrain of the Chicago Cubs’ team song rang especially true on Wednesday night, when the team ended its 108-year World Series drought, and baseball fans across the country likely woke up with the notes of “Go Cubs Go” stuck in their heads.
The song “Go Cubs Go” was written ahead of the 1984 season by Steve Goodman, the Chicago-born songwriter who also wrote the Grammy Award-winning “City of New Orleans,” popularized by folk legend Arlo Guthrie.
