Sometimes, the stars align just right. If you’re going to have a heart attack, you might as well have it on a plane full of cardiac specialists on their way to a conference. Woman Has Heart Attack on Jet Full of MDs:

This guy picked the wrong visitors to carjack.His victims: a college judo team from Miami-Dade that pounded him on the head, twisted him like a pretzel and pinned him on the ground until L.A. cops arrived.
“I thought it was pretty funny because out of all the cars this man picked, he picked ours,” said Cristina Baldacci, 23, one of the members of Florida International University’s judo team in the backseat of the rented minivan Sunday.
“All I kept thinking the whole time was, `This guy is really barking up the wrong tree.’”
