Thursday's Hot Clicks: Priscilla Ricart; Shane McMahon cheats death

Shane McMahon has taken bigger bumps than a helicopter crash.

Nothing can kill Shane McMahon

It’s been like 18 hours since Shane McMahon’s helicopter crash-landed into the Atlantic Ocean and I still can’t believe this story. Luckily, we’ve even got a few new developments in the story. Here’s the full video of the rescue shot from an NYPD helicopter and some photos from the scene. Probably my favorite part was how not a single WWE fan was shocked that the guy famous for diving off the top of cages was uninjured in the crash

This is so gross

I was going to link here to the story about Joey Chestnut declaring hot dogs non-sandwiches but then I saw a TMZ story with the headline “JOEY CHESTNUT Celebrated Hot Dog Victory WITH GIANT DUMPS” and decided that sounded more important.

El Salvador’s defense got a little kinky with U.S. striker Jozy Altidore last night. ... Ed Sheeran deleted his Twitter account right after his much-maligned Game of Thrones cameo, but he insists the two aren’t related. ... Bad news: J.D. Martinez got hurt in just his second at-bat with the D-Backs. Good news: It’s just a bruise. ... Few things make me happier than seeing dumb startups crash and burn. ... Dez Bryant is having a barbecue and everyone is invited.

Shane McMahon’s wasn’t the only aircraft emergency on Long Island yesterday

This dude makes me seethe

I can’t believe Andy didn't link to this yesterday. You may have already seen it but if you haven’t, please watch it. This guy is beyond insufferable. (Then read this profile of his less famous, perhaps slightly less awful brother.) 

A good song
