    Because Minnesotans are a completely different breed of people descended from snowmen, this is a video of a group of guysย icebergin’ in the middle of winter. What’s icebergin’? Apparently pickaxing and stomping around on a frozen lake until the ice breaks into pieces, then running across them.

    A Hong Kong man has drowned after helping to save a swimmerโ€™s life off the popular Egyptian Red Sea resort city of Hurghada.

    The 40-year-old man, surnamed Choy, had been enjoying a trip with his wife and other travellers on a small island off Hurghada when the incident occurred at around 11am on Tuesday, local agency Wing On Travel announced on Friday.

    โ€œThe weather was fine and the water was calm. Then a drowning swimmer shouted for help and that male tour member, as well as other local staff, rushed to join the rescue efforts,โ€ a company spokeswoman said.

    But after helping to save the struggling swimmerโ€™s life, Choy lost his own, she said.

    โ€œThe male tour member was found to be unconscious near the shore as he tried to swim back to the beach.โ€
