0:00:09 > 0:00:11Hi, I'm Jenny, it's Friday morning and this is your
0:00:11 > 0:00:12live Newsround update.
0:00:12 > 0:00:16A new world record for hanging around above Niagara falls.
0:00:16 > 0:00:25And, can a world drumming record be broken for BBC Music Day?
0:00:31 > 0:00:33First up to the goalkeeper who has just become the most
0:00:33 > 0:00:34expensive in British history.
0:00:34 > 0:00:37Jordan Pickford has left Sunderland, who were relegated last season,
0:00:37 > 0:00:40to join Everton for a fee that could rise to ?30 million.
0:00:40 > 0:00:43We'll get to see Pickford in action when he plays for England Under-21's
0:00:43 > 0:00:49in this summer's European Championships.
0:00:49 > 0:00:51BBC Music Day took place yesterday, with more than 800 live events
0:00:51 > 0:00:56taking place across the UK.
0:00:56 > 0:00:59It was all to celebrate the power of music for all ages.
0:00:59 > 0:01:02I went to Portsmouth, where some of you guys were trying
0:01:02 > 0:01:06to break a world record.
0:01:06 > 0:01:0916 schools, 860 drummers, one challenge.
0:01:09 > 0:01:13To break the world record for the largest djembe drum ensemble.
0:01:13 > 0:01:15Here in Portsmouth, that's exactly what these guys
0:01:15 > 0:01:19are about to try and do.
0:01:19 > 0:01:22I think we can break the record because we've been leading up
0:01:22 > 0:01:24to this moment and we're going to smash it and we're
0:01:24 > 0:01:26going to dominate it.
0:01:26 > 0:01:28And even if we don't break the world record,
0:01:28 > 0:01:31I'm still excited to be here with my friends.
0:01:31 > 0:01:35The difficulty in this record attempt is that everyone needs
0:01:35 > 0:01:40to stay synchronised.
0:01:40 > 0:01:43Each participant must play their individual drum
0:01:43 > 0:01:45during the entire attempt, and none of the instruments
0:01:45 > 0:01:46can be shared.
0:01:46 > 0:01:48You must keep drumming for the full five minutes.
0:01:48 > 0:01:55And they were off.
0:01:55 > 0:01:58The record they've got to beat is five minutes, with 467 drummers.
0:01:58 > 0:02:01Come on, guys.
0:02:01 > 0:02:04So they've just finished drumming, the plan is now for everyone to get
0:02:04 > 0:02:07outside and that's where they're going to find out if they have
0:02:07 > 0:02:11officially broken the world record.
0:02:11 > 0:02:20It gives me great pleasure to present Portsmouth music hub
0:02:20 > 0:02:22with the Guinness World Records title for the largest
0:02:22 > 0:02:23djembe drum ensemble.
0:02:23 > 0:02:24Congratulations!
0:02:24 > 0:02:25Mission complete!
0:02:25 > 0:02:27Meet the new djembe drumming world record holders.
0:02:27 > 0:02:36I feel absolutely amazed, it's a very prestigious thing
0:02:36 > 0:02:41thing and a very rare thing, as well.
0:02:41 > 0:02:43I have been inspired to achieve anything if I set my mind
0:02:43 > 0:02:45to it and really try.
0:02:45 > 0:02:46The trickiest part was probably learning
0:02:46 > 0:02:48all the symbols and the timing.
0:02:48 > 0:02:52It has inspired me now, and I really want to do more.
0:02:52 > 0:02:55Now, when it come to space, black holes are pretty mysterious things.
0:02:55 > 0:02:58But a group of scientists in China have just launched a special
0:02:58 > 0:03:04telescope which is aiming to shed a little light on the subject.
0:03:04 > 0:03:07Meet the Insight telescope, China's first x-ray telescope, which they've
0:03:07 > 0:03:11just launched into space.
0:03:11 > 0:03:14Its job will be to search for black holes and help scientists
0:03:14 > 0:03:15understand them better.
0:03:15 > 0:03:17Black holes are pretty elusive characters,
0:03:17 > 0:03:22and are usually invisible to regular space telescopes.
0:03:22 > 0:03:25This is because they suck in all the light which is nearby
0:03:25 > 0:03:27to them with their super strong gravitational pull.
0:03:27 > 0:03:30However, the new Insight telescope has a bit of a trick up its sleeve.
0:03:30 > 0:03:32When objects like stars get sucked into a black hole,
0:03:32 > 0:03:36they heat up and give out x-rays.
0:03:36 > 0:03:39These are then picked up by the Insight telescope and sent
0:03:39 > 0:03:44back to the scientists here on Earth.
0:03:44 > 0:03:47Researchers are hoping it will help them to learn more about how
0:03:47 > 0:03:50the black holes behave and tell them about other objects in our galaxy.
0:03:50 > 0:03:52Pretty cool.
0:03:52 > 0:03:55Next up, these pelicans look pretty happy but it was a different story
0:03:55 > 0:03:57a couple of months ago.
0:03:57 > 0:04:00Here's Hayley to explain why.
0:04:00 > 0:04:03Hundreds of pelicans have been seriously poorly due to a poisonous
0:04:03 > 0:04:06algae that's been growing far too rapidly in the waters
0:04:06 > 0:04:13where they live.
0:04:13 > 0:04:15While small amounts of this algae are fine, the pelicans have big
0:04:15 > 0:04:18appetites and too much of the green stuff can make them ill.
0:04:18 > 0:04:21When this toxin builds up, gets in the little fish,
0:04:21 > 0:04:22doesn't hurt the fish.
0:04:22 > 0:04:23Get in the barnacle, doesn't hurt the barnacle.
0:04:23 > 0:04:26But when things in turn eat those critters, like our seagulls,
0:04:26 > 0:04:29like our pelicans, like our loons, when they eat these critters
0:04:29 > 0:04:31they can concentrate that material so much inside of them
0:04:31 > 0:04:32that they get sick.
0:04:32 > 0:04:36After eating this stuff the pelicans find it difficult to swim or fly,
0:04:36 > 0:04:39and have to receive help from local wildlife reserves, where they nurse
0:04:39 > 0:04:42the birds back to health.
0:04:42 > 0:04:45When the algae has vanished from the water and the birds'
0:04:45 > 0:04:47tummies are better, the vets get to take the pelicans
0:04:47 > 0:04:51to the beach and release them back into the water.
0:04:51 > 0:04:55It's the best part of my job, releasing pelicans.
0:04:55 > 0:04:59You see them in the pool, and they look like they're doing OK,
0:04:59 > 0:05:02but once you bring them out here you see how happy
0:05:02 > 0:05:06they are to be out back in the wild, and the best thing is when they jump
0:05:06 > 0:05:10out of the crate so fast that they kick sand up in your face!
0:05:10 > 0:05:13Back on their feet and with better tummies, the pelicans are just happy
0:05:13 > 0:05:20to fly free back to the water that they call home.
0:05:20 > 0:05:23If you're scared of heights you might want to look away now.
0:05:23 > 0:05:25This is Erendira Wallenda, and she has just broken the world
0:05:25 > 0:05:27record for the highest suspension over Niagara Falls
0:05:27 > 0:05:31in southern Africa.
0:05:31 > 0:05:32She dangled about 100 metres above the water
0:05:32 > 0:05:35to perform her tricks.
0:05:35 > 0:05:37She did have a rope tether to keep her safe
0:05:37 > 0:05:39but she didn't have to use it.
0:05:39 > 0:05:43Obviously, this isn't one to try at home!
0:05:43 > 0:05:44Finally, check out these playful dolphins off
0:05:44 > 0:05:47the coast of South Africa.
0:05:47 > 0:05:50Drone footage caught the pod jumping in the waves for over eight hours.
0:05:50 > 0:05:53The dolphins were kicking back after the area where they live had
0:05:53 > 0:05:54been hit by big storms recently.
0:05:54 > 0:05:58That's all from me, Newsround's back this afternoon with Ricky.
0:05:58 > 0:06:01Bye!
