A bear visited a Tennessee amusement park and took a casual, tourist-like stroll across the site’s famous suspension bridges.

Video captured the animal moseying along the TreeTop Skywalk at the Anakeesta theme park in Gatlinburg, which features 880 feet of bridges suspended 50 to 60 feet in the air.

Speaking of animals out for walks, a wayward baboon has been spotted wandering around neighborho­ods in Johannesbu­rg, South Africa.

The primate has been seen scampering around suburbs, including at a gated community in Franklin Roosevelt Park.

Cora Bailey, the founder of the rescue group Community Led Animal Welfare, told local media that the baboon likely left his large family group when he came of age.

What a super-fan. Personal trainer Ramiro Alanis has broken the Guinness World Record for “most cinema production­s attended” of the same film after watching “Avengers: Endgame” in theaters a whopping 191 times over 94 days after the movie premiered on April 26, 2019.

A Virginia man nearly missed out on a $100,000 lottery jackpot after he stuck the winning ticket in the glove box of his car and forgot about it for almost two months.

When Felton Lumpkin of Mechanicsv­ille finally discovered the golden ticket, he couldn’t believe it.

“I screamed for my wife to come look,” he told state lottery officials. “It really hasn’t sunk in yet.”

A man who started work as a hospital chaplain in Minnesota amid the coronaviru­s pandemic wound up receiving 16,000 paper cranes to decorate the hospital.

Pastor Kazuhiro Sekino of Japan, the resident chaplain at Abbott Northweste­rn Hospital in Minneapoli­s, decided to collect the cranes to boost morale.

Through social media, he asked his Japanese followers to send him paper cranes, and ended up with the bonanza.
