Hi, I'm Ricky with all your top stories this Friday afternoon. | 0:00:03 | 0:00:06 | |
Coming up on Newsround... | 0:00:06 | 0:00:08 | |
Hi, Newsround, we're the Brownlee brothers. | 0:00:08 | 0:00:09 | |
Keep watching to find out more about us. | 0:00:09 | 0:00:13 | |
And find out why these sheep have turned the colour orange! | 0:00:13 | 0:00:17 | |
They are one of the most famous pairs of siblings | 0:00:27 | 0:00:30 | |
in the world of sport - | 0:00:30 | 0:00:31 | |
British triathlon stars Jonny and Alistair Brownlee. | 0:00:31 | 0:00:32 | |
The duo won silver and gold at the Rio Olympics last month | 0:00:35 | 0:00:38 | |
and hit the headlines this week when Alistair showed | 0:00:38 | 0:00:40 | |
his brotherly love by helping an exhausted Jonny over the line | 0:00:40 | 0:00:43 | |
during a race in Mexico. | 0:00:43 | 0:00:48 | |
Well, the Brownlees have been telling Newsround | 0:00:48 | 0:00:51 | |
their childhood memories as brothers. | 0:00:51 | 0:00:56 | |
Alistair and Jonny, thank you so much for coming into Newsround. | 0:00:57 | 0:01:00 | |
Now, we all know that you are brothers, | 0:01:00 | 0:01:02 | |
we want you to share some of your childhood memories, | 0:01:02 | 0:01:07 | |
so, guys, tell us about a time when you helped each other as kids. | 0:01:07 | 0:01:10 | |
Well, I think I was always helping him as a kid, really, | 0:01:10 | 0:01:13 | |
being the older brother. | 0:01:13 | 0:01:14 | |
I was trying to at least, and I remember one time | 0:01:14 | 0:01:18 | |
we were playing in a stream, we were dam building or something, | 0:01:18 | 0:01:21 | |
and he cut his finger open, | 0:01:21 | 0:01:22 | |
and blood just went everywhere in the stream. | 0:01:22 | 0:01:25 | |
And I held it and obviously took him back to my mum and dad, | 0:01:25 | 0:01:28 | |
and he was taken to hospital. | 0:01:28 | 0:01:29 | |
There it is, he has always been looking after me! | 0:01:29 | 0:01:32 | |
What about you? When you have helped him out as a brother? | 0:01:32 | 0:01:35 | |
I am the younger one, so he is supposed to help me out. | 0:01:35 | 0:01:38 | |
Oh, that one time we cycled to school, | 0:01:38 | 0:01:40 | |
I had an exam, and we swapped bikes. | 0:01:40 | 0:01:42 | |
We used to cycle to school in the morning, | 0:01:42 | 0:01:44 | |
one-time Alistair got a puncture, | 0:01:44 | 0:01:45 | |
and he said, "Here is my bike, I've got an exam, fix it." | 0:01:45 | 0:01:48 | |
It was a GCSE or something. | 0:01:48 | 0:01:50 | |
I was about an hour late to school, so that is when I helped him out. | 0:01:50 | 0:01:53 | |
Tell us about a time when you competed against each other as kids. | 0:01:53 | 0:01:57 | |
We competed against each other all the time as kids, | 0:01:57 | 0:01:59 | |
you know, everything in the garden became a massive competition, | 0:01:59 | 0:02:01 | |
when we play football or badminton | 0:02:01 | 0:02:03 | |
or cricket or having a race somewhere on a bike. | 0:02:03 | 0:02:05 | |
We'd do all sorts of little challenges like that. | 0:02:05 | 0:02:08 | |
Everything was a competition, so Monopoly, badminton, | 0:02:08 | 0:02:10 | |
table tennis in the garden, even when it comes to sledging, | 0:02:10 | 0:02:13 | |
the fastest one downhill, who can build the biggest snowman? | 0:02:13 | 0:02:15 | |
Everything you can compete at, we competed at. | 0:02:15 | 0:02:20 | |
Alistair, Jonny, thank you so much for that, | 0:02:20 | 0:02:22 | |
it's been great having you on Newsround. | 0:02:22 | 0:02:24 | |
That all right, thank you very much for having us. Thank you. | 0:02:24 | 0:02:27 | |
Gold and silver for the Brownlee brothers! | 0:02:27 | 0:02:32 | |
Go online to watch Newsround's special, Brothers And Sisters, | 0:02:32 | 0:02:35 | |
to hear some incredible stories | 0:02:35 | 0:02:37 | |
of sibling relationships from children all over the world. | 0:02:37 | 0:02:46 | |
A British man who spent three days living as a goat in the Alps | 0:02:46 | 0:02:50 | |
has won a special prize for his work. | 0:02:50 | 0:02:52 | |
Thomas Thwaites had prosthetic legs made so he could walk on all fours | 0:02:52 | 0:02:56 | |
and graze with other goats in the mountains. | 0:02:56 | 0:02:59 | |
He said he wanted to take a break from human life. | 0:02:59 | 0:03:02 | |
His research has now been given an Ig Nobel prize, | 0:03:02 | 0:03:05 | |
which is awarded for funny science projects. | 0:03:05 | 0:03:09 | |
From using science to some mad inventions - | 0:03:09 | 0:03:12 | |
have you ever wished | 0:03:12 | 0:03:14 | |
you could create a machine to make life a bit easier, | 0:03:14 | 0:03:16 | |
to make you your toast or pour your glass of orange juice? | 0:03:16 | 0:03:19 | |
Well, that is exactly what this man from New York in America does, | 0:03:19 | 0:03:23 | |
as I've been finding out. | 0:03:23 | 0:03:28 | |
He's invented a machine for just about everything. | 0:03:28 | 0:03:32 | |
Joseph Herscher has been making crazy inventions | 0:03:32 | 0:03:34 | |
since he was a child. | 0:03:34 | 0:03:36 | |
I made my first machine when I was five years old, | 0:03:36 | 0:03:39 | |
and it was a machine to store my candy. | 0:03:39 | 0:03:41 | |
Obviously, very useful for a five-year-old. | 0:03:41 | 0:03:44 | |
But also I noticed that it made my parents laugh, | 0:03:44 | 0:03:47 | |
and that sort of encouraged me to keep making more and more machines. | 0:03:47 | 0:03:51 | |
Videos of his wacky inventions have been huge hits online, | 0:03:51 | 0:03:54 | |
and now he spends all day making machines. | 0:03:54 | 0:03:58 | |
His contraptions are usually to help him out with everyday problems. | 0:03:58 | 0:04:03 | |
In | 0:04:03 | 0:04:03 | |
In the | 0:04:03 | 0:04:05 | |
Often I notice when things annoy me in day-to-day life, | 0:04:05 | 0:04:07 | |
"What can I do that will stop that from annoying me?" | 0:04:07 | 0:04:10 | |
But Joseph doesn't just solve problems with his machines - | 0:04:10 | 0:04:13 | |
he likes to have fun, too. | 0:04:13 | 0:04:15 | |
The machines that I make, they're as playful as possible, | 0:04:15 | 0:04:18 | |
and that doesn't make any sense, right? | 0:04:18 | 0:04:21 | |
But at the same time humans are naturally playful creatures, | 0:04:21 | 0:04:23 | |
and so we are drawn to the idea of a playful machine. | 0:04:23 | 0:04:30 | |
Well, something that Joseph hasn't got around to inventing | 0:04:30 | 0:04:32 | |
is orange sheep. | 0:04:32 | 0:04:34 | |
Yes, your eyes are not tricking you - these sheep are really orange. | 0:04:34 | 0:04:37 | |
A farmer in Cumbria in north-west England has decided | 0:04:37 | 0:04:40 | |
to spray-paint his flock. | 0:04:40 | 0:04:42 | |
Why? To put off thieves from taking them. | 0:04:42 | 0:04:44 | |
The paint is not harmful, | 0:04:44 | 0:04:46 | |
and the sheep have become a tourist attraction already. | 0:04:46 | 0:04:49 | |
What a bright idea! | 0:04:49 | 0:04:53 | |
That's all from me, Newsround is back on CBBC | 0:04:53 | 0:04:55 | |
tomorrow morning at 8:55am. Have a great evening! | 0:04:55 | 0:04:58 |
