Boy’s Fingers Blur Playing ‘Dueling Banjos’ Then Big Brother Takes It To Next Level

0

The Sleepy Man Banjo Boys, originally made up of three brothers from New Jersey, made a name for themselves back in 2011 with an appearance on The Late Show With David Letterman. In this 2012 cover of the traditional folk song Dueling Banjos, the three Banjo Boys showed fans yet again that despite their young age, they can play just about anything at whirlwind speed.

The Mizzone brothers each play a different instrument in the family band. At the time, the band’s oldest brother, Tommy, was fourteen years of age and played the guitar; middle brother Robbie, thirteen, played the fiddle; and nine-year-old Jonny played the banjo, according to Cyber Grass. This trio has put in the practice and dedication to make their clearly innate talent truly shine. Watching the video below, you can see that stage fright isn’t exactly a factor for them, as they play for a live audience just as well as they would hanging around, practicing at home.

 

 

A well-known classic, the boys begin their rendition of Dueling Banjos. Jonny and Tommy, on guitar and banjo, begin the clip by mimicking the notes of each other’s instruments, gradually picking up speed. Soon, you see their fingers are flying over the frets, almost too fast to watch. Even though the boys seem like they might be shaky in the beginning, this proves to be just an act as the pair quickly escalates their speed to a confident expert level. Around the three-quarter mark of the song, middle brother Robbie sneaks himself and his fiddle into the now-trio, adding his own flair to the old-time favorite.

With talent like that, it’s no surprise that the Sleepy Man Banjo Boys has only become more successful since their Letterman appearance rather than fading away into obscurity. The heartwarming video below was uploaded shortly after their Letterman performance and has been viewed over nine million times since. Constantly growing their talent, these brothers have also enhanced their repertoire, expanding their music to include anything from pop to Americana and bluegrass.

But as of today, the grown-up Banjo Boys are, well, not really boys anymore. The three brothers have grown up to become young men, and along with growing up, the band added a bassist and changed their name to just be Sleepy Man, according to Bluegrass Today.

That’s just what he did in this exciting video, joining his grandchildren in an impromptu dance party that caught the attention of many nearby bystanders. Thankfully somebody videotaped it and it made its way to the Your Care Everywhere website, which is meant to show that dancing has incredible benefits for those wary of growing old.

After 16 Years, Abandoned Baby Discovers She Has A Famous Sister

0

Imagine having a secret sibling somewhere in the world. While many of us might bicker with our brothers and sisters, we wouldn’t trade them for the world. But Jennifer Bricker never knew anything about her sister or biological parents.

Abandoned as a baby, Jennifer decided to embark on a journey to uncover the truth about her birth family, which led to a shocking discovery.

Despite being born with no legs, Jennifer dreamed of becoming a gymnast. Jennifer was given up for adoption shortly after birth because of her disability, but she was soon adopted by loving parents who went above and beyond to make sure their daughter could achieve anything she set her mind to.

The confidence and self-love fostered in the Brickers’ home helped Jennifer blossom into a beautiful young girl. By age seven, she was already a gymnastics champion! Even without legs, her determination and passion motivated her to try her best and overcome the seemingly insurmountable odds.

 

 

 

As a child, Jennifer idolized famed gymnast Dominique Moceanu. The athlete influenced and inspired Jennifer to always work hard, and she eventually grew up to become an aerial performer who gets to embrace her love for gymnastics for a living.

Jennifer’s parents never hid the fact she was adopted, and they even told their daughter her birth family was from Romania and encouraged her to find out more whenever she was ready. When Jennifer finally decided it was time to learn about her origins, she uncovered a mind-blowing secret that completely changed her life.

It turns out, her idol Dominique Moceanu was her sister.

Families keep secrets, but some are much heavier than others. While it may seem like Jennifer’s birth parents’ were wrong to never tell her sister about her sibling, their choice to put her up for adoption ultimately ended up giving her a life filled with opportunity that led her to reuniting with her sister down the line.

Can you believe the twist at the end of this adoption story? Let us hear about your reaction and pass this wonderful story on to your friends and loved ones.

Tiny Toddler’s Potty-Training Conversation Leaves Dad Tearing Up With Laughter

0

Many people find that raising children is one of life’s greatest joys. Sure, it’s tough, and you’ll experience a whirlwind of emotions through every tantrum and every successful milestone, but most parents would say it’s all worth it in the end.

I’m sure the parents of a toddler by the name of Matty would completely agree with that last statement. Matty is a great joy in both of their lives, and to top it off, he has a great sense of humor. In fact, during a potty-training session back in October of 2019, Mom overheard Dad and Matty having a hilarious conversation. Instantly, the toddler’s mom whipped out the camera to capture the moment on film

Matty, who was sitting on the toilet confidently informed his dad in a humorous voice that he didn’t poop; he peed. “Wait, you didn’t poop?” Daddy asked. Little Matty made sure to inform Dad a few more times to correct his misconception.

Then at one point, Matty’s father puts his head down as he wipes tears from his eyes. Matty gets concerned, asking if his daddy is sad. “No, I’m not. I’m trying so hard to not laugh, I’m crying,” he clarified to his son.

 

 

Once Matty was sure that Daddy was okay, he once again assertively announced with a big smile on his face, “I didn’t poop; I peed!” a few more times. In response, his father gave his little guy a high-five. Way to go, Matty!

When the video was initially posted on Facebook by Matty’s Mom, Dani DeVito, the hilarious clip earned over 29,270,000 views! It was also shared over 800,000 times and commented on over 140,000 times.

After watching the video, people commented how adorable and funny Matty was.

“Sooo cute and I think that little boy will actually get a big kick out of it if he sees it when he grows up. We all have one of those moments!” one person said.

I totally agree with that last commenter. Although, I’d be a little embarrassed about it during my pre-teen and teenage years, that’s for sure!

Another user couldn’t help but reflect on how quickly children grow up yet how amazing it must have been to capture such an adorable clip: “Where does the time go. I wish time was slower than it is. What a a moment to cherish.”

I’m sure the DeVito family will be watching that video dozens of times over the next few years. It’s too cute not to!

Do yourself a favor, and hear the hilarious child’s potty-training talk in the video below.

Even the coldest heart will be warmed by this wide-eyed toddler’s reaction to the first snowfall.

0

“Hello, Iris!” The mother of the toddler called. Her response was a delighted laugh.

Iris’s mother took her to see snow for the first time and happily captured her priceless reaction on video. While the rest of us take snow for granted, it was an almost magical experience for this youngster.

The small child wasn’t sure what to make of the large white flakes falling around her at first. But she was aware that she liked them.

Iris laughed, gestured and pointed at the falling snow.

But still, one important question remained unanswered … Could she eat it?

 

 

Once mom asked Iris about eating snow, it was on! The excited toddler proceeded to try (and fail in the cutest way possible) to eat the snow, chasing the flakes with her tongue out.

A few moments later, she stood with her mouth open, seemingly in amazement. Yeah, those snowflakes are faster than they look!

The video is definitely an adorable reminder that there are still things that bring about a sense of wonder for the very young — and the young at heart.

This priceless reaction is a must-see, and you can check it out by clicking the video below.

Mum Conceives Third Set Of Twins In A Row Beating Incredible Odds Of 700k-To-One

0

A mum has beaten 700,000-to-one odds by falling pregnant with two babies for the third time – now she needs a bigger house and car for her growing family. Chelsea Hadfield, 30, a kitchen assistant from Rotherham, is mother to non-identical twins Max and Louie, five, with husband Mark, 36. Chelsea Hadfield was pregnant with twins 10 years ago but sadly m.iscarried just 8 weeks. A year later, she conceived again. To her shoc.k, a 6 week ultrasound revealed she was pregnant with twins for the second time. Max and Louie are 5 years old now, and are about to be the older brother of another set of twins.

Mrs Hadfield and her husband Mark, 36, knew they wanted another child but didn’t plan on expanding their family from four to six. When a 13-week scan showed twins were on the way yet again, Mrs Hadfield says she wasn’t particularly surprised because she seemed to have suspected this to happen again. The couple hasn’t undergone IVF treatment, and their chances of conceiving naturally two sets of twins in a row range from 12,500-one to 700,000-one. The odds of having non-identical twins three times in a row are estimated to be between 88,000-one and 500,000-one, as women who have had twins once are more likely to get pregnant again.

 

 

Hadfield said: “When I was pregnant with boys I didn’t have any symptoms, I felt fine – it was a perfect pregnancy. But around this time, I had ᴛᴇʀʀɪʙʟᴇ morning sɪᴄᴋɴᴇss that lasted all day. Although the symptoms are different, I still wonder if we will have another set of twins. It was on my mind so when the nurse said, “you won’t believe this,” I almost did. Hadfield admitted it was more of a s.hock last time she found out she was pregnant with the boys in 2014. She said: “With the first set of twins I sadly m.iscarried, I ʟᴏsᴛ them at nine weeks before I’d even had a scan. I had also ʟᴏsᴛ a single baby before that so the hospital brought me in for an early scan when I was carrying Max and Louie.

“I had my first scan at six weeks and was told they were twins – that was a bit of a surprise. Max and Louie are non-identical and Hadfield has been told it’s more than likely this new set will be non-identical too. She said: “Each baby has their own sac and placenta so the nurses have said they’ve only got about 10% chance of being identical. It would be nice if one of them was a girl. But as long as they’re healthy and happy it doesn’t really matter.”
