Michael Jordan has revealed that a “huge piece of him” yearns to pick up a basketball again. In an interview with Gayle King on CBS’s Sunday Morning, the former Chicago Bulls star said he’s been “cursed with this competitive gene” years after his retirement from basketball—a drive he now channels into his NASCAR team, 23XI Racing. “I’ve compensated that—that feeling through NASCAR or through fishing … But that urge to dream, that if I wish I can still pick up a basketball and … I would love to do that. Believe me,” Jordan said. The six-time NBA champion retired three times—first in 1993, again in 1999 and then for the final time in 2003 following a brief comeback with the Washington Wizards. He admitted that he is not exactly living the quiet life he imagined when he retired from the sport. Instead, he has poured a lot of his drive into his NASCAR team. “I think the sport needs it to some degree, and my team needs it, and I want them to see the passion that I have for winning and for the-- you know, being a part of the team,” Jordan said. One of the drivers on his team, Tyler Reddick, says his bosses’ winning mindset “[motivates] the hell out of us.”

North Korea has claimed it tested a beefed-up missile system over the weekend that could eventually reach the U.S North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, who observed the launch, said that the engine test had “great significance in putting the country’s strategic military muscle on the highest level.” The test wasn’t covered independently, and some experts aren’t buying it. Lee Choon Geun, an honorary research fellow at South Korea’s Science and Technology Policy Institute, believes the state was “bluffing” after failing to disclose the engine’s total combustion time. According to state media, the engine’s maximum thrust is 2,500 kilonewtons, up from North Korea’s most recent test last September that hit 1,970 kilonewtons. North Korea has been seeking to grow its stock of hard-to-detect, nuclear-capable ballistic weapons, with state media reporting that the test was part of its need to upgrade its “strategic strike means.”

A soccer fan has died after falling from a VIP box at a Mexico City stadium that is set to host the 2026 World Cup opening ceremony. The man appeared intoxicated as he attempted to jump from the second-level VIP box seats during Saturday’s match between Mexico and Portugal at Banorte Stadium, authorities reported. “According to the first reports, the events were recorded in the building’s staging area, from where the person fell to the parking area, causing the loss of his life,” Mexico City Prosecutor’s Office (MCPO) said in a statement. The man’s identity has not been released, and authorities said an autopsy is underway as part of an ongoing investigation. The stadium, which has hosted two previous World Cup finals, was renovated ahead of the June 11 opening ceremony.

What began as a live promo spot quickly turned into a full-body takedown on morning TV. Fox News host Abby Hornacek was body slammed during a live Fox & Friends segment on Saturday while covering Real American Freestyle, a wrestling event set to air on Fox Nation. In the now-viral clip, Olympic silver medalist and RAF women’s middleweight champ Kennedy Blades, 22, demonstrated a suplex throw by hoisting Hornacek over her shoulder and flipping her onto a mat. The Fox News host had admitted she was “nervous” beforehand, but sprang back up smiling after the stunt, high-fived Blades, and later posted on X: “Got suplexed by an Olympian today. So that was cool.” On air, she said it “looked worse than it was,” calling it “a lot of fun” before joking she’d be staying off the mat. Not everyone watching was so relaxed. The clip sparked alarm online, with commenters calling the move “reckless” and warning Hornacek “almost landed on her head,” while others said she was lucky not to be seriously hurt.

We’re just about a week into Daylight Saving Time, and while the time shift comes with plenty of positives (who doesn’t love an extra hour of daylight?), it also significantly disrupts your sleep routine and circadian rhythm. When you add in months of winter sluggishness, late-night doom-scrolling, and the general exhaustion of daily life, it’s easy to see why March is considered Sleep Awareness Month.

A man who previously stalked Billie Eilish, 24, was killed after being struck by a Long Island Rail Road train in the early hours of Wednesday. Prenell Rousseau, 30, died after being hit while jogging “on or near” the tracks in Westbury, New York, around 5:38 a.m., according to the New York Post, which cited officials who deemed the death accidental. The collision disrupted service, forcing roughly 100 passengers aboard the train to transfer to another LIRR line, the outlet reported. The Farmingdale native had previously been the subject of a restraining order filed by Eilish in 2020 after he repeatedly showed up at her family home in Los Angeles. Court filings described his behavior as “erratic,” noting he appeared at the property multiple times over two days, asking if the singer lived there. “While we waited for security, Mr. Rousseau remained on our porch, sat down and began to read a book while also continuing to engage in a periodic monologue,” Eilish said in court documents. Her family asked him to leave, but Prenell refused. A judge later granted a three-year restraining order. The Daily Beast has reached out to Westbury Police for comment.

James Tolkan, the character actor who played disciplinarian principal Mr. Strickland in Back to the Future and Tom Cruise’s commander in Top Gun, has died aged 94. A family spokesperson said Tolkan died on Thursday, March 26, in Saranac Lake, New York. After serving in the Navy during the Korean War, Tolkan earned a degree in drama from the University of Iowa in 1956. His first television role came four years later in the police drama Naked City, with later TV roles including Remington Steele, Miami Vice, and The Wonder Years. While Tolkan’s film credits include Woody Allen’s Love and Death and Warren Beatty’s Dick Tracy, he was perhaps best known for portraying slacker-hating Hill Valley High School principal Mr. Strickland in Back to the Future and its 1989 sequel. In Back to the Future Part III, Tolkan portrayed Strickland’s grandfather. In between the first two entries in the Back to the Future franchise, Tolkan played Tom “Stinger” Jardian, the aircraft carrier commanding officer who dresses down Tom Cruise’s character for his aggressive fighter pilot maneuvers. Michael J. Fox, Marty McFly in Back to the Future, remembered Tolkan in an Instagram post: “RIP to the great James Tolkan. You were definitely no slacker. Grateful to know you, act with you, and direct you in Tales from the Crypt. I’ll miss you pal.”

Thieves made off with more than 12 tons of KitKat bars in a chocolate heist that has left Nestlé scrambling to track the missing shipment from the sticky-handed burglars. The candy giant told Agence France-Presse on Saturday that the haul “remains unaccounted for” after it was stolen last week while in transit between production and distribution sites in Europe. The timing couldn’t be worse. With Easter looming—a peak season for chocolate sales—the company warned the theft could disrupt supply and leave some shelves short of the popular wafer bars. A spokesperson tried to keep things light, joking that the culprits may have taken the brand’s famous slogan—“Have a break, have a KitKat”—a little too seriously. Still, Nestlé said it isn’t giving up the chase. The company noted that its products carry unique barcodes that can help trace the shipment if the stolen goods resurface on European markets. Investigators are also working with local law enforcement as the search continues.

A dead whale that washed up on Rockaway Beach in Queens, New York, on Thursday may explode, authorities have warned, adding that curious passersby should keep a 300-foot distance. The release of methane gas inside the decomposing mammal’s body could result in a build-up of pressure, and eventually an explosion, experts say. “The best way to assist these animals, and keep them and yourself safe, is by calling trained responders and maintaining a 150-foot distance from dolphins and porpoises and a 300-foot distance from whales,” according to the Atlantic Marine Conservation Society (AMSEAS). “It is important to remember that whales in the surf are still dangerous, even when deceased.” AMSEAS has identified the animal, which is about 40 feet long, as a male Sei whale, which is an endangered species due to commercial whaling in the 18th and 19th centuries. AMSEAS said it would be conducting a necropsy examination on Friday.

Touted for a laundry list of potential wellness benefits, including improved circulation, boosting lymphatic drainage, and even reduced back pain, it’s no surprise that vibration therapy is trending in the wellness space right now. The fundamental idea behind vibration therapy is that the vibrations cause muscle contraction just like they would if you were, say, lifting a pair of dumbbells, doing bicep curls, and the claim is that these contractions help build muscle, burn fat, and promote increased lymphatic drainage just by standing on the device and feeling the vibes.

As someone who is obsessed with taking care of my lymphatic system (and looking for lazy-ish ways to boost circulation and burn calories), I purchased Lifepro’s bestselling Waver Vibration Plate Exerciser on a whim before my wedding a few years ago, and while I figured it would be a gimmick, it’s one of the best wellness investments I’ve ever made. If you’re after a user-friendly yet super-powerful vibration plate that doesn’t break the bank, Lifepro’s Waver Vibration Plate Exercise Machine is the gold standard. I have had mine for almost four years, and I absolutely love it. Best of all? It’s backed by a lifetime warranty, which more than justifies the price tag, and select vibration plate models (including the OG Waver, the advanced Rumblex 4D Vibration Plate, and the Rhythm Vibration Plate Exercise Machine with Handles) are currently up to 20 percent off during Lifepro and Amazon’s Big Spring sales.

As someone who sits for at least ten hours a day, I’m always looking for low-lift ways to counteract the side effects of my very sedentary lifestyle, and this vibration device has been a major game-changer for me. I will hop on it for just ten or fifteen minutes when I feel like I’ve been sitting for too long, and it instantly reduces stiffness and muscle tension. I also depend on it for depuffing when I’m feeling bloated or swollen, and it works like a charm.

Plus, while the research is still divided, some experts say it may help with fat loss by reducing water weight, especially when used to complement your strength training workout. I like to stand on my vibration machine while doing arm, ab, and leg exercises for an added boost. If you’re looking to upgrade your lymphatic support lineup, I really can’t recommend Lifepro’s vibration therapy lineup more.

Tiger Woods’ latest run-in with the police has been captured in a grim new image. The golfer’s mug shot was released late Friday, hours after Woods was arrested following a rollover crash near his Florida home—an incident police believed involved drugs, not alcohol. Woods, 50, appeared disheveled and glassy-eyed in the booking photo, taken after officers found him “lethargic” at the scene of the crash on Jupiter Island. Authorities say Woods tried to overtake a truck on a narrow, two-lane road before clipping a trailer and flipping his Land Rover. The vehicle slid a “pretty decent space,” according to Martin County Sheriff John Budensiek, before coming to a stop. A breath test showed no alcohol in his system, but police said he appeared impaired by “some type of medication or drug.” Woods refused a urine test. He was booked on charges of driving under the influence (DUI), property damage, and refusal to submit to a lawful test, before being released hours later. The arrest echoes his 2017 DUI case, when the champion golfer was found unconscious at the wheel and later admitted to being impaired by prescription painkillers.

A new claim about the Great Sphinx is raising eyebrows about the mysteries that may lie beneath the Egyptian Pyramids. Italian researcher Filippo Biondi says his team may have identified a hidden, sphinx-like structure buried beneath the Giza Plateau. Speaking on the Matt Beall Limitless podcast, Biondi said the discovery came after analyzing alignments between the pyramids and the existing Sphinx, pointing to what he believes is an underground parallel structure. The team also cited ancient clues, including the Dream Stele, which they say references two feline figures, as possible evidence of a second Sphinx. Using satellite imaging, Biondi claimed researchers detected a structure roughly 108 feet tall, along with what he described as vertical shafts and horizontal passages beneath the site—features he says suggest a larger “underground megastructure” mirroring the original. The idea of a second Sphinx isn’t entirely new. Egyptologist Bassam El Shammaa has previously pointed to mythology and historical interpretations, suggesting more could lie beneath the surface.
