Hello, everyone. Welcome back to Cheddar News. I'm Baker.
All right, let's get to some of the stories you might have missed this morning.
A designer now trying to make a case for some double decker airplane seats.
Take a look at this guys showcasing a prototype
at an aircraft interior expo over in Germany.
His idea was uh making waves last year after it was posted online.
23 year old designer, Nunez Vicente
has now improved that concept and reportedly
has gotten some interest from potential sponsors.
He said the double level airplane seats are the future of economy flying.
It allows stack seats on a plane which would also allow
for a little bit more leg room on those flights.
And apparently the designer has personally struggled with
this issue as he is six ft two.
So as you see this person,
uh
that picture makes me claus.
So the whole point here is obviously, if you are wanting to sleep on planes,
this obviously would help.
And for those of us who are in basic economy, who are tall like me,
this would help as well.
But when you recline,
you literally have the other persons took us
in your face when you're basically laying down.
Also, your,
your um carry on would literally go under your seat
instead of in the seat in front of you.
Um I don't know.
And obviously if you have mobility issues,
you would never be able to get on to the top part of this.
Those who have uh have tried this out, say, look, there's no,
uh there's no elbow room and if you are on the top level,
you're even closer to the top to basically the to the ceiling of the airplane.
Um
Look, we hate change on airplanes. I don't know how this would work.
But look, you know,
these airlines are trying to cram as many people as humanly possible.
These planes are trying to find as many ways to get this to work.
I love that the designers 23 years old. So this is an updated concept.
He said he came out with the original concept a few years ago.
It wasn't as polished as it is. Now. He's made a lot of improvements.
You mentioned the ladder going up the stairs. It's a lot sturdier.
They will not have screens in front of us, but when you recline, you're right,
you might see the person in front of you took us as you said.
Um But I think he says it's inevitable that this will happen.
And I do believe that I think this is going to happen all the more reason that I'm paid
extra then for like the, the
bigger.
Yes. Exactly. Which is why most of the time I'm always crammed in any place.
But I don't know if this is gonna get me to fly basic economy.
I mean, could you imagine, like,
could you imagine your cross country flight with
the person in front of you with like,
the, uh,
yeah, it's
a rare, very claustrophobic. Ok.
And a rare orange lobster was caught recently in
Casco Bay Maine and it only has one claw.
Researchers said there's only a one in three 30 million
chance in catching one of these rare orange lobsters.
Lobsters are typically a more dull color when they're
alive and only take on a more vibrant hue.
Once they're cooked,
the lack of a certain gene and the respective
protein can lead to different colors in lobsters.
That's according to researchers at the University of New England,
we're studying the unusual lobsters.
The missing claw is expected to grow back. And here's the cool part.
Researchers say they, this gives them an opportunity,
a study how it grows back in real time.
And I wonder what color it's gonna grow back.
Stone crabs, by the way, a lot of people, if you eat them,
especially in South Florida, stone crabs, they grow their claws back also,
which is really amazing.
I wonder though if orange lobsters taste different than the
regular lobster maybe has like a citrus flavor or something.
I
don't
know.
I just love that. It has like one arm that's a different color and one that's red.
I
love
to
watch it in real life though. That's amazing.
