George Lucas Finally Explains Why Yoda Speaks Backwards

Ever wonder why Yoda’s dialogue in Star Wars sounds so twisted? George Lucas finally explained it during a 45th anniversary screening of The Empire Strikes Back. He said, "Because if you speak regular English, people won't listen that much. But if he had an accent, or it's really hard to understand what he's saying, they focus on what he's saying." Mission accomplished, George.

Influencers Blamed for Rise in Shark Attacks

A new study published in Frontiers in Conservation found that influencers and tourists trying to ride, poke, and grab sharks are causing an uptick in shark attacks. Researchers studying encounters in French Polynesia from 2009 to 2023 said about 5% of shark bites happened when sharks felt threatened by humans looking for dramatic photo ops. Experts are now reminding everyone: Sharks will eat you if you treat them like Instagram props.
