Nowadays it has become very popular to go hiking or walking. Wandering with friends or mates is more comfortable because you can always get support if you get into a difficult situation. Once two of my friends and I went on a hike in Scotland, I stumbled and sprained my ankle. It really hurt and I wasn't able to go further. The pain was so strong and thumping that I got unconscious. While my friend Pete was travelling to the nearest village to ask for help, my friend Joe stayed with me and tried to provide first medical aid.

Sometimes dawdling can save someone's life! My wife is a calm person who likes to do everything at her own tempo and because of this she is always late to work. But once my wife's tardiness helped a badly injured person. It was 7.30, and we were getting late as always when somebody cried: "Help! Help!" My wife went outside and saw a woman that got into a car crash. Her car hit the tree near our house. She was bleeding and had a dull pain in her arm - probably, she had broken it. My wife was bravely providing first aid while I was calling the doctor. Always calm and slow, my wife stayed calm and unflappable in that situation and being slow saved the woman's life.

Good evening dear ladies and gentlemen! And here is the sports news for today. This morning a 24-year-old horse rider won the race on his black horse called Champion! It is the first victory for Steve and his horse, and both are extremely happy. 'I've been riding for twelve years but these are my first adult serious competitions', - Steve shared with our radio channel right after his debut. – 'When I was 17, I was badly injured - I fell down off a horse and fractured my hip. The fracture was so serious that I hadn't been able to ride for 5 years. But two years ago I resumed my training and now Champion and I have shown such brilliant results!'

I was 31 when I came to China. It was February and people were preparing to celebrate their Eastern New Year. It was evening time and I was walking home after shopping. The street where I was walking was pretty dark and I tried to fumble my way to go. Suddenly I fell down into a pit that I hadn't noticed. I bruised myself and broke all the toes on the right leg. I also was unhappy to get a stiff neck and splitting headaches because of the injury. But when my leg and foot recovered, I was really happy that I could stomp again! Now I'm treating my neck and headache and I hope to get over it soon. But there is a good thing – I managed to visit the fest even in this condition.

Now we can watch a hungry leopard creeping to catch his victim. The big cat notices an antelope and is getting ready to have a good dinner. Leopards are predators who make almost no mistakes. Look, it is hiding in the grass and watching the antelope. And here we see a pack of hyenas preparing to gnaw the bones – they are scavengers and always eat after the predators. And now this leopard sprints to the antelope and even slightly scratches its back. But wait! The antelope is faster and she runs away! It seems that the leopard and the hyenas will stay without dinner today…
