He designed a special keyboard with levers the octopus could pull using its tentacles. Initially, Tako would only play one or two notes at a time using bubbles as motivation. The breakthrough came in August when Krantz installed a “crab elevator” that lowered Tako’s favorite treat for each note played. Krantz now accompanies the octopus on guitar, and Tako can even play the note progression of “Baby Shark,” though off-tempo.

Lucky woman thrifts ‘hideous’ piggy bank – shocked to find $2,028 hidden inside

Roaming a thrift store to see what deals and steals can be found is a thrill in and of itself. But one woman scored big when she brought home a piggy bank that was unexpectedly stuffed with cash.
The thrifter, who goes by the name on TikTok, posted a video over the weekend showing off what she said many online described as a “hideous and scary” piggy bank.

Katrina mentioned how she found the “vintage” bank at Goodwill for $10.99. “It was on the cart that the lady just brought out and I grabbed it directly from the cart.”
