Discovered 50 years ago, she’s proof humans were upright much earlier than we thought. A robotic whale shark is making waves in a Chinese aquarium. Conservationists love the idea, but some visitors want to see real sharks. Cool tech or fin-tastic flop? Dive in and decide! Slacklining pros balanced 2.5 km above the ground between two hot air balloons! It’s a new Guinness World Record and definitely not a hobby for the faint of heart. Watch the video and gasp!
