Tortoise-Tortoise In A Canoe: April 2011

Hot FM I Wanna Live My Dream Finale

I’m sure most of you have heard of this competition that Fly Fm was going on about for approximately 1 month (I think). It was this contest whereby ONE lucky person gets to win fulfil his/her dream, whereby 5 choices are provided: A 5 star holiday to Mauritius, Downpayment for a dream home, Live free for a year (without bills), A concert of your choice at anywhere around the world and finally, RM60k shopping spree.

The finals took place on the 27th March, at 8pm, at the Sunway Pyramid Orange entrance. Almost 120 participants were cooped up in a fenced area, waiting for their chances to win the grand prize. Their names were called one by one to take the stage and tries to open a door with a key, which each one of them possesses before they start the finals. The emcees for this event was the Fly Fm's DJs, Hunny Madu and Phat Phabes were realy good. So does the emcees that came in later, Hafiz, Jaydee, PRem, Zher.

Paramotor Pilot Stuck at Light Pole During Landing

20th March 2011 - Accidents may happen even at the most unpredictable timing and situation. Esther bin Marasik from VAT 69 was one of the many paramotor pilots gliding over the 3rd Putrajaya Hot Air Balloon Fiesta (2011). But he probably didn't expect that the motors of his paraglide will misfunction while he was landing and eventually find himself stuck at the street light during the event. The people around couldn't do anything but to wait for help by the rescue team to bring him down as he was hanging with his paramotor almost 10feet above the ground.
