At just three years of age, Zayn Sofuoglu can barely reach the pedals of a car, and he can’t even see past the steering wheel, yet he somehow drives better than most people. The youngest son of Turkish motorcycle racer Kenan Sofuoglu, Zayn spent most of his young life around powerful motorcycles and supercars and he probably has more experience with them than most adults. Zayn wasn’t even two years old when his father, who holds a record of five Supersport World Champion titles, started posting videos of him riding a motorcycle in the driveway of their family home.

Since then, the prodigy has been honing his motorist skills, and he is now able to expertly manoeuvre and park various supercars even though he can’t even see through the windshield. It’s no surprise that Zayn Sofuoglu has almost one million followers on Instagram alone. He’s a special kid who seems capable of things that no other three-year-old would even dream of. The latest viral clip uploaded by his parents, who manage all his social media, shows him using a GoPro camera linked to a tablet inside the family’s Ferrari SF 90 Stradale to take the supercar out of a garage, take it for a spin and then expertly back it up into the tight garage.
Many adult drivers would probably be nervous about driving a supercar for the first time, especially in what looks like a relatively tight space, but young Zayn doesn’t seem fazed at all.
It’s raining macchi
Monsoon at an arid town in Australia not only provides water, but also fish
Lajamanu, a remote community in the Australian outback, near the Tanami Desert, recently experienced its fourth rain of fish in the last 50 years. They say lightning never strikes in the same place twice, but apparently, the same cannot be said about raining fish. The arid town of Lajamanu, in the Northern Territory outback, sees very little normal rain, but somehow it has experienced no less than four “fish rains” in the last half-century—once in 1974, another in 2004, again in 2010, and last Sunday. Although the nearest fish-containing body of water is many miles away, locals swear that live fish started falling from the sky during a powerful storm, and they even have photos to back up those claims.
We’ve seen a big storm heading up to my community and we thought it was just rain,” Lajamanu local and Central Desert councilor Andrew Johnson Japanangka told the media. “But when the rain started falling, we saw fish falling down as well.” “We saw some free-falling down to the ground. And some falling onto the roof,” Japanangka added. “It was the most amazing thing we’ve ever seen. I think it’s a blessing from the Lord.”
