Your top stories

this Tuesday morning.

0:00:050:00:08

Another medal for Paralympics GB

at the Winter Olympics.

0:00:080:00:13

Tourists gather to watch

this in Argentina!

0:00:130:00:16

And why a cat could hold the key

to this year's World Cup.

0:00:160:00:24

Let's start with a quick round-up

of today's sports stories.

0:00:300:00:33

Manchester City are just two

games away from winning

0:00:330:00:35

the Premier League after they beat

Stoke 2-0 last night.

0:00:350:00:39

David Silva scored

just 10 minutes in.

0:00:390:00:42

He then went on to score his second

goal of the game and ninth

0:00:420:00:46

of the season in the second half.

0:00:460:00:48

The win means they can still take

the title against rivals

0:00:480:00:50

Manchester United next month.

0:00:500:00:54

And there's been a silver

medal for Great Britain

0:00:540:00:56

at the Paralympics in South Korea.

0:00:560:00:58

British skier, Menna Fitzpatrick,

who's partially sighted,

0:00:580:01:01

and her guide Jen Kehoe took second

place in the super combined event.

0:01:010:01:08

World number one Roger Federer

is favourite to win

0:01:080:01:10

a record sixth title

at Indian Wells.

0:01:100:01:12

He won his last match in less

than an hour to reach the last 16.

0:01:120:01:16

Novak Djokovic's already out.

0:01:160:01:18

Andy Murray and Rafa

Nadal are both injured.

0:01:180:01:21

In the women's, Venus has beaten

Serena in the latest

0:01:210:01:23

Williams sisters showdown.

0:01:230:01:26

Venus won in straight sets.

0:01:260:01:31

Over in Argentina, thousands

of tourists gathered to watch this

0:01:310:01:34

extraordinary moment.

0:01:340:01:37

It's an ice bridge collapsing

in a national park in

0:01:400:01:42

the South American country.

0:01:420:01:44

It happens every couple of years

when water pressure builds up under

0:01:440:01:47

the ice making it weak.

0:01:470:01:49

The last time it

happened was in 2016.

0:01:490:01:54

OK, next up it's the special

orchestra making Norway really cool!

0:01:540:01:58

Watch this!

0:01:580:02:01

There's something pretty

cool about this music.

0:02:020:02:09

It's being played on

instruments made out of ice!

0:02:090:02:12

Brrr!

0:02:120:02:14

It's part of an ice

music festival in Finse,

0:02:140:02:17

a mountain village in Norway.

0:02:170:02:19

In winter, it can only

be reached by train

0:02:190:02:22

and it is very cold up there.

0:02:220:02:26

But before they can play, they have

to carve their instruments.

0:02:260:02:30

They've made ice drums,

horns and even a didgeridoo!

0:02:300:02:36

This is an iceophone.

0:02:360:02:38

Good sounding ice is

the most difficult part.

0:02:380:02:40

You cannot just go to your freezer,

you cannot go to the nearest lake.

0:02:400:02:44

It's kind of a celebration,

it doesn't sound like anything

0:02:440:02:47

else you've ever heard.

0:02:470:02:49

People really are surprised when

they hear it for the first time.

0:02:490:02:55

In Finse, the temperature can

drop below -20 degrees

0:02:550:02:57

and the colder it is,

the better it is for playing ice.

0:02:570:03:00

It makes them sound much clearer.

0:03:000:03:03

We don't get to practice.

0:03:030:03:06

So the music, it gets made

on stage to the audience.

0:03:060:03:09

And that's what makes it special.

0:03:090:03:11

People are like, what?

0:03:110:03:12

It's possible?

0:03:120:03:14

And it's almost not possible so it's

pretty cool that we can do it.

0:03:140:03:18

Right, that's it, next

time it snows, I'm going

0:03:180:03:20

to make my own harp!

0:03:200:03:22

Where's the ice?

0:03:220:03:25

Now, you may remember Fiona

the Hippo who correctly guessed

0:03:250:03:28

the winners of the Superbowl,

the American football competition,

0:03:280:03:32

earlier this year.

0:03:320:03:33

Well, now Russia has named a cat

as its official fortune-teller

0:03:330:03:38

for this summer's World Cup.

0:03:380:03:39

Achilles - yep, that's his name -

will have two bowls of food

0:03:390:03:44

representing either side.

0:03:440:03:46

Whichever he eats first will be his

favourite to win the game.

0:03:460:03:51

Last up, we've all been enjoying

the Winter Olympics and Paralympics

0:03:510:03:53

but Martin has found a competition

where the people enjoy

0:03:530:03:56

a winter sport, with a wee

bit of a difference.

0:03:560:04:01

Boys and girls, we're

in Krynica Zdroj in southern

0:04:010:04:03

Poland for Ski Splash!

0:04:030:04:08

Ski Splash is an event that takes

place in this town every year.

0:04:080:04:12

And as you can see,

it's a real hoot.

0:04:120:04:16

50 participants attempted to ski

or snowboard across a pool of very,

0:04:160:04:19

very cold water after riding

off a slope.

0:04:190:04:24

Wait a minute, that's a boat!

0:04:240:04:28

It combines some good

old sense of humour with fun

0:04:280:04:30

and sports competition.

0:04:300:04:34

The best part about it for me is,

the competitors dressed up

0:04:340:04:37

in anything they like.

0:04:370:04:38

Not because it gets them points.

0:04:380:04:40

But simply because they can.

0:04:400:04:42

I know what my next hobby is!

0:04:420:04:46

That's it from us.

0:04:460:04:49

But just enough time to tell

you to head to Newsround online

0:04:490:04:52

where you can see why this rescue

dog stole the show at

0:04:520:04:55

Crufts over the weekend.

0:04:550:04:56

We're back in just

over half an hour.
