Utah woman
A Utah woman who has been water skiing since 1961 was officially dubbed the world’s oldest female water skier at age 92.
Dwan Jacobsen Young of Fish Haven said she started water skiing on Lake Bear when she was 29 years old, and now she is joined on her outings by her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
“I always get butterflies before I get in the water,” Young told Guinness Records “In the water, I feel excited.”
Young said she didn’t know her family had applied for the Guinness World Records title on her behalf. They surprised her with the news at a family Christmas party.
“Our daughter announced that our granddaughter had a surprise,” she recalled. “Up on the screen came a video of me skiing this summer.”
Young’s daughter then presented her with the Guinness World Records certificate.
“I could not believe it. I still cannot believe it,” she said. “What a surprise and what an honor.”UPI

A brown bear wandered into a hotel in Tibet and forced its way into a locked room with two guests inside.
Security camera footage from the hotel in Nagqu shows the bear wander down a hallway inside the building on Saturday and force its way through a door into an occupied room.
The guests in the room said they stared at the bear for a few seconds before it left the room on its own.
The hotel owner used a flashlight and other tools to scare the bear and chase it out of the building.The door has since been repaired and the hotel said it is adding additional security measures to keep bears out.
