Mark Zuckerberg fumes after losing 'controversial' jiu-jitsu fight
Mark Zuckerberg fumes after losing 'controversial' jiu-jitsu fight
Facebook's Mark Zuckerberg appears to get grumpy with a ref - after losing a jiu-jitsu bout. The Meta CEO was filmed fighting an unknown competitor in Redwood City in California on Saturday (6/5). The video shows the Facebook founder attempting to pin his opponent before getting pinned to the floor himself. Eventually, the ref calls the match and gives the win to his opponent - believing that Zuckerberg, 38, had 'tapped out'. Onlookers say the confused and shocked billionaire is seen to be furious claiming it was an error - and the match is eventually re-cast as a 0-0 draw. The 'controversial' call seems to satisfy Zuckerberg in the footage, who hugs his opponent. Zuckerberg later won gold and silver medals at the event - his first public competition. It was revealed in September last year that he had taken up mixed martial arts (MMA), with his trainer has describing him as a "silent killer" in the ring.

Passenger claims flight attendant told her to tape broken window
Passenger claims flight attendant told her to tape broken window
The daughter of The Real Housewives of New York City's Jill Zarin has claimed she had to create her own makeshift window shade as the one on her flight was broken. In TikTok footage that's racked up 4.3 million views, Ally Shapiro recorded herself using the safety pamphlet and tape to block out the light on the alleged "broken window". The on-screen text read: "POV you have to tape your own window shade because Delta decided not to include one on an eight hour flight." She went on to explain that she paid "for an extremely expensive international flight" in which she thought "a window shade would be included." Ally reported that the airline offered her tape and safety books so she could tape it up herself during her flight to Nice. "I used to be a very loyal Delta customer, but this was just insane," she continued. "They made us remove it before landing because management would be upset… shouldn't they be upset for having a broken window and not letting us switch seats?!" Sign up for our free Indy100 weekly newsletter The footage was soon flooded with comments from fellow TikTokers, with one writing: "UMMMMMM IM MORTIFIED to fly with the window shade up I woulda cried." Meanwhile, another added: "The way I woulda just stared out the window for 8 hours listening to music." @allyshaps When you pay for an extremely expensive international flight thats 8 hours long you would think a window shade would be included…they offered me tape and safety books (ironically) so i could tape it myself. I used to be a very loyal delta customer, but this was just insane. They made us remove it before landing because management would be upset…shouldnt they be upset for having a broken window and not letting us switch seast?! #delta #deltafail #airplanetiktok @delta In a follow-up clip, Ally claimed the first attendant was "very rude and dismissive," but a "much more friendly" member of staff gave her the materials for her window shield. "As someone that already has so much anxiety when I fly, this was a really sucky situation for me, and I wish they could have handled it better, or at least offered us a different seat, because I could not fly like this," she continued.

Sean Dyche hits out at referee over ‘bizarre’ decision in loss to Liverpool
Sean Dyche hits out at referee over ‘bizarre’ decision in loss to Liverpool
Sean Dyche branded Craig Dawson’s decision not to send Ibrahima Konate off in Everton’s Merseyside derby defeat bizarre and incredible as he criticised the referee and called for VAR to be used to determine bookable offences. The Liverpool defender, who was on a booking, was spared a second yellow card for a foul on Everton substitute Beto – a decision which Dyche accused Pawson of rushing to and which he felt was stunning and almost impossible. Dyche claimed he had no idea why he was booked in Everton’s 2-0 loss, which was sealed by a late brace from Mohamed Salah. He did not complain about the award of the penalty for the Egyptian’s opener, for handball against Michael Keane, but questioned the first caution Ashley Young received for his first-half red card, though he admitted the second was correct. But Konate’s reprieve, when the game was still goalless, bemused him. “I have no clue,” Dyche said. “I have asked the referee and he said he didn’t feel it was a bookable offence. I think people who were here today would be stunned it was not a second yellow.” Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp promptly replaced Konate and said afterwards that the Frenchman could have been sent off and that he understood Dyche’s frustration. “Jurgen couldn’t wait to get him off because he knows,” the Everton manager said. “Fair play. I think that is an honest view. I don’t want to bleat too much because we lost. I can’t remember the last time I spoke this openly about referees but that one is incredible to me. And I got a yellow card, I don’t know what for.” Dyche was annoyed by Pawson’s swift decision-making, explained: “I have seen the footage back and within a second he is saying, ‘No chance no chance.” You aren’t giving yourself thinking time. If you give yourself 10 seconds, you think, ‘That has to be a yellow’. That is just bizarre to me. How that is not a second yellow is nearly impossible in the modern game.” Whereas Pawson was sent to the monitor to review the handball that led to the penalty, there is no scope for VAR to intervene for bookings but Dyche said: “I think there is where VAR should step in. In a game of this magnitude, I think VAR should be there to correct it.” Read More How Sean Dyche turned Everton into a better attacking team than Liverpool Northern Ireland rising star Isaac Price grateful to former boss Frank Lampard Mikel Arteta pinpoints moment Arsenal made ‘phenomenal’ response at Chelsea
