Paragliding Pooches, Keeping Your Cool and your fascinating facts about The Natural World

Songs for Paragliding Pooches, Keeping Your Cool and your fascinating facts about The Natural World in the latest instalment of The Enyclopedia Britspanica.

On the Late Show tonight:

It's the return of the Encyclopedia Britspanica - and we're looking for your oddball facts and tasty titbits about The Natural World

A would-be thief's attempt to rob a suburban New York bank on Wednesday was abruptly thwarted when the teller simply said no to the robber's demand for money, police said.

"He slipped a note through the teller's slot that said 'money in bag,'" said police captain Joseph Schaller. "She refused, and with that, she activated the alarm, turned away from the window and he ran out the door."

Talk about keeping  a level-head.

So we want to know what's the coolest thing you've ever done?



And for our Situation Soundtrack tonight
Jimmy Rimski's Jack Russell terrier, The General, has become the first flying dog in Britain after taking up paragliding.


Jimmy first took his pet terrier paragliding in a harness when he was a year-old puppy.

Since then, the four-year-old canine has developed a taste for the high life and chalked up more than 40 flights in his own logbook.
