See the source image

Czar Alexander II, the ruler of Russia since 1855, was killed in the
streets of St. Petersburg by a bomb thrown by a member of the revolutionary “People’s Will” group. The People’s Will, organized
in 1879, employed terrorism and assassination in their attempt to overthrow Russia’s czarist autocracy. They murdered officials
and made several attempts on the czar’s life before finally
assassinating him on March 13, 1881.

REMEMBER COMPUTER GENERATED MAX?

See the source image


Max Headroom is a British fictional artificial intelligence (AI)
character, known for his
wit, stuttering and pitch-shifting
voice. He was introduced in early 1985. The character was
created by George Stone,
Annabel Jankel, and Rocky Morton.

Max was portrayed by Matt Frewer and was called "the first
computer-generated TV presenter", although the "computer-
generated" appearance was achieved with an actor in prosthetic
make-up and harsh lighting, in front of a blue screen, with other
audio and video editing effects.

The original release on the ABC network from March 31, 1987
to May 5, 1988.

HE’S THE OLDEST KNOWN LIVING TORTOISE

See the source image


The oldest known living terrestrial animal is Jonathan (above), a Seychelles giant tortoise (Aldabrachelys gigantea hololissa),
originally from the Seychelles, but now a long-time resident of
the remote South Atlantic island of St Helena, a British Overseas Territory in the South Atlantic Ocean. He is believed to have 
been born (or hatched) c. 1832, thus making him 190 years old 
this year. In January 2016, the BBC reported that Jonathan was
given a new diet intended to keep him healthy and extend his life.
