Floyd Mayweather has an incredible list of requirements needed to join ‘The Money Team’.

Floyd Mayweather’s entourage is one of the biggest and most powerful in the game and there are slew of ridiculous requirements for joining.

‘The Money Team’ are not only tasked with protecting the undefeated 50-0 boxer in public but also the substantial amounts of cash he regularly carries with him.

They are paid extremely well, with The team also get to travel on a separate private jet as well as receive one or two pieces of jewellery.

But it’s not always an easy ride working for the 47-year-old as he expects his bodyguards to go on the attack as soon as he utters a command.

During the press conference with Conor McGregor ahead of their 2017 superfight, Mayweather shouted at his crew to ‘Form Voltron’.

It sounded like something out of a Marvel movie but 15-time world champion was demanding the TMT go on the attack and surround McGregor.

A huge fracas occurred when McGregor’s team also showed they were game for a scrap.

Mayweather, who has had multiple altercations with YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul, has also been known to yell “sick them” – which also means activating his mob into action.

One of Mayweather’s bodyguards, Alfonso Redick, stands at a ridiculous 7ft and is quite rightly nicknamed ‘Big Church’.

But another of his personal minders, Jizzy Mack – once labelled a “juicehead turkey” by McGregor

Mack previously fought on the undercard of Mayweather’s exhibition bout against Mikauru Asakura over in Japan.

He took on a much smaller opponent in kickboxer Kouzi but was finished off in the third round.

Kouzi put him on the canvas on multiple occasions and after a final flurry of punches, Mack was put to the sword when the referee waved away the contest.

Maybe he was waiting for the order from Mayweather, who won later on in the night and collected a cool £20 million.

Floyd Mayweather gatecrashed a young fighter’s press conference to declare himself the GOAT of boxing following Canelo Alvarez’s win over Jermell Charlo.

dominated Charlo as he defended his undisputed super-middleweight world titles, winning a lopsided decision in Las Vegas.

Undercard action saw Curmel Moton, just 17, make his professional debut as he knocked out Ezequiel Flores in the very first round.

Moton, who is widely regarded as one of the best talents in America, spoke to the assembled media after his victory – alongside his promoter

But the budding starlet’s press conference was hijacked by the former pound-for-pound boxing king as he went on a rant about being the greatest of all time.

The 46-year-old took exception to a reporter calling him ‘arguably one of the greatest of all time’ as he hijacked Moton’s presser to make his feelings clear.

“What are we rating ourselves on?” He said.

“In the least amount of fights, you know, I didn’t have to have 70 fights, or 150 fights, 300 fights.”

The five-weight world champion added: “Did I or did I not beat the most world champions? In the least amount of fights? Who got the highest gate? Who made the most money? Who was the most accurate? It’s basically saying that…”

The reporter agreed with everything ‘Money’ said and ultimately rephrased his question to refer to the 50-0 fighter as the ‘greatest of all time’.

Is Mayweather the GOAT of boxing? Let us know what you think.

Although there will now be another chapter with a sequel set for the summer in Mexico.

Mayweather, 47, posted on Instagram: “August 24th Mayweather Vs. Gotti 3 Rematch in Mexico City. This is something you don’t want to miss!!”

Gotti is 5-1 in MMA and 2-0 as a professional boxer before he faced unbeaten icon Mayweather.

But he has continued to box in exhibition bouts against stars of the social media, MMA and boxing world.

Gotti, 31, was his last opponent as Mayweather remains a money-maker The self-proclaimed billionaire has been linked with rematches against the likes of McGregor, 35, and Manny Pacquiao, 45.

But in 2022, Mayweather insisted he will never return to the ring to fight in potentially health damaging bouts.

He said: “I retired from the sport, and I didn’t let the sport retire me.

“I’m always going to put myself in a position now to where I, just like I was doing — fighting at the highest level. I was dictating and being in control.

“I’m not going to go in there with no former fighters, former world champions, putting more abuse on my body. I retired for a reason.

“I’m here to have fun and enjoy myself — sometimes three rounds, sometimes eight rounds, with guys that are going to help me entertain people.”

 

  • Tiger Woods’ lawyers shared a copy of his NDA with ex-girlfriend Erica Herman in court papers Monday.
  • Herman filed a lawsuit after Woods broke up with her and kicked her out of his house last year.
  • Woods says Herman violated their NDA, in which she agreed to arbitrate disputes out of court.
  • Tiger Woods’ lawyers shared a copy of the non-disclosure agreement he had his then-girlfriend sign soon after they started dating in 2017, as the golfer tries to force her to arbitrate a disagreement out of court.

    While the copy of the  that was provided in Martin County, Florida, circuit court on Monday was heavily redacted, it does show that  agreed to arbitrate all disputes with Woods “as consideration for the opportunity to continue to” spend time with him and “be privy to certain private and confidential aspects” of his personal life.

    Lawyers for Herman and Woods did not immediately return Insider’s request for comment on Tuesday.

    Herman and Woods’ current issues date back to October 2022, when Woods broke up with Herman and kicked her out of his Jupiter, Florida, home. Herman responded by the trust that owns Woods’ home, claiming that Woods violated an oral agreement that allowed her to live in the home rent-free for a period of years.

    Woods’ lawyers have argued that Herman sued the trust to get around a provision in the NDA, in which she agreed to arbitrate all disputes with the golfer out of court. Herman has since filed a second lawsuit trying to get out of the NDA by using the federal “Speak Out Act” law that nullifies such agreements in cases where sexual harassment or sexual assault are being claimed. However, Herman made no specific allegations of sexual harassment or assault in her NDA complaint against Woods.

    Tiger Woods' ex Erica Herman signed an NDA in exchange for the 'opportunity' to spend time with the golfer: court docs

    Woods’ lawyers filed a copy of the NDA in a motion to compel arbitration in the second lawsuit on Monday. A similar filing, arguing that the Speak Out Act doesn’t apply to the NDA, was made in the first lawsuit on Monday as well. In both filings, Woods’ attorneys described Herman as a “jilted ex-girlfriend.

    “Ms. Herman is not a victim of sexual assault or abuse sought to be protected by Congress when enacting the statute,” Woods’ lawyers wrote. “Rather, Ms. Herman is a jilted ex-girlfriend who wants to publicly litigate specious claims in court, rather than honor her commitment to arbitrate disputes in a confidential arbitration proceeding.”

    In Herman’s original complaint against the trust, she alleged that she was tricked into moving out of Woods’ house. Herman said she was told to pack her bags for a short vacation, but when she left the home, she was notified that she had been locked out of the residence where she had lived with Woods for the previous six years.

    Herman said in court papers that the defendants “attempted to justify their illegal conduct by paying for a hotel room and certain expenses for a short period of time.”

    Woods’ attorneys said in another court filing that he put her up in a luxury resort after their break-up and “provided funds she could apply toward a new residence.”

    Herman alleged in the original suit that by kicking her out of the home, the trust violated an oral agreement that allowed her to live rent-free at the home, in exchange for her performing “valuable services.” While Herman — who also worked at Woods’ restaurant — doesn’t detail what those valuable services entailed, she said she held up her end of the bargain, and had five years left on the agreement.

    “The duties that were performed by, and expected of, Plaintiff were extensive and of an extraordinary nature in light of the overall circumstances and environment in which she lived,” the lawsuit states.

    Woods’ lawyers have denied that Herman had any tenancy agreement to live at the home, and that the golfer and his two children are the only people who have any right to live there.

     

 and his ex-wife, Elin Nordegren, were present at Benjamin School located in Palm Beaches, Florida, to cheer for their son receiving a state championship ring along with his high school golf team. Although Woods and Elin parted ways in 2010 after Woods’ infidelity came to light, the duo decided to co-parent their children, and one such instance came to the spotlight on Tuesday as Elin attended her son’s success ceremony.

After Woods’ appearance in North Carolina to serve as this is Woods’ second appearance at any of   golf-related ventures. The golf legend might be missing out on signature events since backing out of the Genesis Invitational, but he wouldn’t miss out on the special days of his son. Let’s take a look at how Charlie and his team achieved this state championship ring and Charlie’s journey with the Benjamin Buccaneers!

Charlie Woods’ Golf Run On His High School Golf Team

Tiger Woods And IS Ex-Wife Elin Nordegren Spotted Together On Hand To Watch Son Charlie Woods Receive His State Championship Ring

Last year in November, the Benjamin boys squad triumphed at the Florida State High School Golf Championship for the Class 1A title held at Mission Inn Resort and Club after securing an astounding score of 602, one point more than First Academy. Apart from Charlie, the other teammates in the squad are Tyler Bruneau, Brooks Colton, Jake Valentine, and Pavel Tsar.

Junior Woods scored 78 and 76 over the two rounds and tied for 26th place in the individual rankings. But the star performer of the event was Jake, who scored 148 and finished at T8. The Buccaneers were coached by Toby Harbeck and although the title is Charlie’s first state title, this is the school’s fourth title in golf history and the first one after 15 years.

Charlie’s scoring average was 74.3 in 2023 and was behind the team leader’s figure. But he had been a pivotal part of helping the team clinch this triumph. Moreover, Charlie participated in 12 of the 16 team events last season so the team was full of praise for the young golfer.

Also in the West Coast High School tournament held at Cypress Woods Golf and Country Club, Charlie came out victorious in the entire tournament as an individual and shot 65 in round one. Thus, the young golf prodigy is giving his best efforts to follow in the footsteps of his father. Therefore, one can expect several other brilliant accolades coming his way.

Wood’s is facing a challenging time at the 2024 Open Championship. His performance could hinder his chances at making the cut line.

Woods began the tournament with high hopes, but his first round at Royal Troon proved to be difficult. He finished the first round with a score of 8-over 79, placing him tied for 138th. This was a significant setback, as he found himself 14 shots behind the leader, Daniel Brown.

The second round did not bring much relief for Woods. He carded a 77, which further pushed him down the leaderboard. His combined score of 156 over two rounds placed him 149th out of the 154-player field. Unfortunately, this performance means that Woods is far from the cut line and will miss the weekend action.

Factors contributing to Tiger Woods poor performance

How is Tiger Woods doing at the Open Championship today? Will he make the cut-line?

It has been twenty years since Woods last played a professional round at Royal Troon.   Woods has faced numerous injuries and surgeries over the years. His physical condition might have played a role in his performance, especially on a demanding course like Royal Troon.

The competition at the Open Championship is fierce, with many top golfers vying for the title. Woods’ performance, while disappointing, is a showing to the high level of play required to succeed in such a prestigious tournament.

While Tiger Woods will not be competing in the weekend rounds of the 2024 Open Championship as he misses the cut, his legacy in golf remains untarnished.

 

TROON, Scotland —  said turning down an opportunity to captain next year’s U.S. Ryder Cup team was a difficult one, but one he had to make because of myriad other commitments.

a two-time Ryder Cup player, will when it faces the European team at the Bethpage Black Course in Farmingdale, New York, on Sept. 26-28, 2025.

Tiger Woods: Too many commitments to be Ryder Cup captain

“Well, the decision was very difficult for me to make,” Woods said Tuesday at Royal Troon Golf Club as he prepares for the Open Championship. “My time has been so loaded with the tour and everything and what we’re trying to accomplish. I’m on so many different subcommittees that it just takes so much time in the day, and I’m always on calls.”

Woods, 48, is vice chairman of the board of directors of PGA Tour Enterprises and a member of its transaction committee, which is handling day-to-day negotiations with Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund about a potential multibillion-dollar investment. Woods is a player director on the PGA Tour’s policy board as well.

Woods and  also are the front men for TGL presented by SoFi, a tech-infused golf league that is scheduled to begin its inaugural season on Jan. 7.

“I just didn’t feel like I could do the job properly,” Woods said. “I couldn’t devote the time. I barely had enough time to do what I’m doing right now, and add in the TGL starts next year, as well as the Ryder Cup. You add all that together and then with our negotiations with the PIF, all that concurrently going on at exactly the same time, there’s only so many hours in the day.

“I just didn’t feel like I would be doing the captaincy or the players in Team USA justice if I was the captain with everything that I have to do.”

Woods said he hasn’t talked to Bradley about being one of his vice-captains.

“I think Keegan is going to be a great leader,” Woods said. “He’s very passionate about what he does. He’s very passionate about the event. I think that this is going to be probably a turnover year for us for the captaincies, whether it’s the captain itself and his vice captains. I think this is the natural progression, one we’ve been looking forward to, and I think it’s that year.”

Woods hasn’t ruled out becoming a Ryder Cup captain in the future. The 2027 event will be played at the Golf Course at Adare Manor in Ireland, which is owned by his friend, JP McManus.

It will be Woods’ first tournament at Royal Troon since he tied for ninth at the 2004 Open Championship. He missed the 2016 tournament while recovering from a back injury.

Woods will play the first two rounds with PGA Championship winner Xander Schauffele and Patrick Cantlay. They’ll tee off in the first round at 9:37 a.m. ET Thursday; they start the second round at 4:25 a.m. ET Friday.

The 15-time major champion has finished only nine competitive rounds on tour this season. He was forced to pull out of February’s Genesis Invitational after one round because of illness. At the Masters, he set a tournament record with his 24th consecutive made cut and finished 60th. He missed the cut in his past two starts at the PGA Championship and U.S. Open.

“I’ve been training a lot better,” Woods said. “We’ve been busting it pretty hard in the gym, which has been good. Body’s been feeling better to be able to do such things, and it translates [to] being able to hit the ball better. Can’t quite stay out there during a practice session as long as I’d like, but I’m able to do some things that I haven’t done all year, which is nice.”

When Woods was asked how long he’ll keep playing, he said: “I’ll play as long as I can play, and I feel like I can still win the event.”

Earlier this week, Scottish golfer told The Times of London that it was time for Woods to retire from competitive golf.

“Aren’t we there? I’d have thought we were past there,” Montgomerie said. “There is a time for all sportsmen to say goodbye, but it’s very difficult to tell Tiger it’s time to go. Obviously, he still feels he can win. We are more realistic.”

Woods was asked about Montgomerie’s remarks Tuesday. Woods noted that as a three-time winner of the Claret Jug, he is eligible to play in The Open until he is 60. Montgomerie was a five-time runner-up in the majors but never won one of the big four.

“Well, as a past champion, I’m exempt until I’m 60,” Woods said. “Colin’s not. He’s not a past champion, so he’s not exempt. So, he doesn’t get the opportunity to make that decision. I do.”

Tiger Woods 14 over at Open, misses another major cut

TROON, Scotland — Tiger Woods‘ major championship season ended with another missed cut in the 152nd Open Championship on Friday, and golf fans won’t see him again on the PGA Tour this season.

Woods carded a 6-over 77 in the second round at Royal Troon Golf Club, leaving him with a 36-hole total of 14-over 156. The cut line was 6 over.

Woods has now missed the cut or withdrawn in six of his past seven majors.

It was Woods’ worst score to par after the first two rounds in 23 starts at The Open; his previous worst was 9 over after 36 holes at St. Andrews in Scotland in 2022.

It was his second-worst score to par after 36 holes in a major — he was 16 over in two rounds at the 2015 U.S. Open at Chambers Bay in University Place, Washington, during the only other stretch in his career when he has missed the cut in three straight majors.

The fifteen-time major champion was tied for 149th when he walked off the course, ahead of only four of the 153 other golfers competing in the last major of the season.

“Well, it wasn’t very good,” Woods said. “I made a double there at 2 right out of the hopper when I needed to go the other way. Just was fighting it pretty much all day. I never really hit it close enough to make birdies and consequently made a lot of bogeys.”

Woods, 48, said he won’t compete again until the Hero World Challenge, an unofficial event he hosts in the Bahamas, Dec. 5-8. He also plans to compete in the PNC Championship — another unofficial event — in Orlando, Florida, with his son, Charlie, Dec. 19-22. Woods was able to compete in each of the four majors this season but didn’t get the results he was hoping for. After setting a Masters record with his 24th consecutive made cut and finishing 60th at Augusta National Golf Club in April, he missed the cut at the PGA Championship, U.S. Open and The Open.

“I loved it,” Woods said. “I’ve always loved playing major championships. I just wish I was more physically sharp coming into the majors. Obviously, it tests you mentally, physically, emotionally, and I just wasn’t as sharp as I needed to be. I was hoping that I would find it somehow, just never did.”

Woods competed in just one other PGA Tour event this season, the Genesis Invitational outside Los Angeles in February, and he had to withdraw in the second round there because of illness.

“I’d like to have played more, but I just wanted to make sure that I was able to play the major championships this year,” Woods said. “I got a lot of time off to get better, to be better physically, which has been the case all year.

“I’ve gotten better, even though my results really haven’t shown it, but physically I’ve gotten better, which is great. I just need to keep progressing like that and then eventually start playing more competitively and start getting into kind of the competitive flow again.”

After posting an 8-over 79 in the first round, Woods wasn’t much better Friday. He made a double bogey on the par-4 second after missing a 4-foot bogey putt. After draining a 22-foot birdie on No. 6, Woods picked up another bogey when he missed a 5-footer on No. 9.

After making the turn at 3-over 39, Woods made three more bogeys on Nos. 12, 14 and 17. He missed a 3½-foot par putt on the par-3 14th.

Over two rounds, Woods was 7 over on the par-3s, which ranked next-to-last in the field. He lost 3.77 strokes to the field in putting and 4.19 on approach.

“Yeah, anytime being out with Tiger is great,” said  who played with Woods and PGA Championship winner  in the first two rounds. “He’s a great competitor and fun to be with. We had a great pairing, especially having my buddy Xander in the group. The three of us had fun.”

Cantlay, who was 1 under after carding a 3-under 68 on Friday, was asked whether he had any sympathy for Woods’ plight since returning to competition after serious injuries he suffered in a car wreck in February 2021.

“I wasn’t out on tour [in the] early 2000s,” Cantlay said. “I’m sure those guys don’t have any sympathy after going through what they went through. I’m always pulling for him, as I think the rest of the world of golf is.”

 

Venue: Royal Troon Dates: Thu 18-Sun 21 July

Coverage: Live radio and text commentary on BBC Sport website, with video clips each day. Daily highlights programme on BBC Two from 20:00 BST.

A jaded Tiger Woods arrived at Royal Troon after a sleepless flight, caused by the attempted assassination of former US president Donald Trump.

Woods watched coverage of the incident while on his flight from Florida on Saturday.

And rather than turning up fresh for a practice round on Sunday, before this week’s 152nd Open Championship at the Scottish links, the 48-year-old told BBC Sport: “I didn’t accomplish a lot because I wasn’t in the right frame of mind.

“It was a long night [because of the assassination attempt] and that’s all we watched the entire time on the way over here.

“I didn’t sleep at all on the flight, and then we just got on the golf course.

Woods hits back at Montgomerie

Tiger Woods missed sleep over Trump assassination attempt

Woods has the same mantra this week that he has adopted throughout his career. If he is turning up, he believes he has a chance of winning.

The statistics paint a different picture. He missed the cut at both this year’s US Open and US PGA Championship, and while he played all four rounds at the Masters, he finished in 60th – and last – place.

And since winning his 15th major at the 2019 Masters, which broke an 11-year drought in the game’s biggest events, he has either missed the cut, or withdrawn, in eight of the 13 championships he has entered. In the other five, he has not finished inside the top 20.

He has played just nine competitive rounds in 2024, yet he has still attracted the biggest crowds so far this week on the Ayrshire coast.

“I wish I had a little bit more under my belt but I’ve been battling some stuff physically,” he said.

“I want to save it for the majors. I don’t want to burn myself out pre-major and not be able to play.”

Woods, who has won all four majors at least three times, has lifetime exemptions for the US PGA Championship and Masters, and while he had to rely on an invite to play last month’s US Open, he can play The Open until he is 60.

It was a point he was keen to mention when asked about comments made by former European Tour great Colin Montgomerie last week.

The 61-year-old, who lived within a short walk of Royal Troon as a child and learned to play the game here, said: “There is a time for all sportsmen to say goodbye, but it’s very difficult to tell Tiger it’s time to go.

“Obviously, he still feels he can win. We are more realistic.”

In reply, Woods said: “Colin’s not a past champion, so he’s not exempt, so he doesn’t get the opportunity to make that decision. I do.

“So when I get to his age, I get to still make that decision, where he doesn’t.

“I’ll play as long as I can play and I feel like I can still win the event.”

Asked if that belief had wavered during his struggles with injury in recent years, Woods replied: “No.”

Montgomerie has since posted a response to Woods’ comments, writing on X: “If Golf writers want my thoughts on Tiger please ask me direct, rather than taking a quote from an interview out of context. Wishing Tiger an enjoyable and successful week.”

‘A simple hole with a severe price’

Woods played his first Open as a professional at Troon in 1997, just three months after winning the first of his major titles at the Masters.

Justin Leonard came from five shots back in the final round to claim the Claret Jug. Woods had started the day eight back and still had an outside chance of challenging when he walked on to the eighth tee.

The iconic 123-yard par-three ‘Postage Stamp’ is the shortest hole on the Open rota – and could be cut to 99 yards should the weather allow – but is arguably one of the most pivotal.

It was ruinous for Woods, who buried his ball in a bunker with his first shot and walked off with a triple-bogey six.

“It’s a simple hole but it doesn’t take much of a mistake to pay a severe price,” he said.

“No matter where you hit it outside of the green, it’s not going to be an easy shot to get it back on to the green.

“It doesn’t matter which bunker you’re in, all are difficult shots just to get the ball back in play and have a putt for par, more likely make a bogey, and get out of there.”

 

Mike Tyson is set to make a surprising return to the boxing ring on July 20, twenty years after his retirement.

The 58-year-old boxing legend will face 27-year-old  at AT&T Stadium, raising concerns about his age and vulnerability, especially after a recent mid-air health scare

Despite these worries, both Tyson and Paul have confirmed that the fight will go on as planned.

Floyd Mayweather hails Jake Paul: It's kind of cool if he can continue to steal money ON BOXING

Former champion Floyd Mayweather Jr. has shown support for Paul, despite their past contentious encounters.

In a recent interview, Mayweather was asked about Jake Paul‘s boxing credentials and offered some surprising insights.

During the interview, host Treasure “Stat Baby” Wilson of ‘It Is What It Is’ inquired about Mayweather‘s thoughts on a rematch with Logan Paul before shifting focus to Jake Paul.

“I mean what he’s doing is kind of cool if he can continue to steal money and they match him the way they match him,” he noted.

“I can’t knock his hustle, so if they can match him the way they how they’ve been matching him more power to him.”

Tyson and Paul‘s fight will consist of eight two-minute rounds with both fighters wearing 14oz gloves. Tyson‘s last fight was an un-scored exhibition against Jones Jr. four years ago, on the same event where Paul knocked out NBA star Nate Robinson.

  • Floyd Mayweather  never tires of showing off his ‘toys’
  • And his second private jet called ‘Air Mayweather 2’ is no exception
  • It’s the world-class boxer’s second Gulfstream

Floyd Mayweather loves showing off his purchases and his new ‘toy’ – his second Gulfstream private jet – is no exception.

He treated fans – and haters – to a tour of ‘Air Mayweather 2’.

It certainly deserves a look.

The hard launch of his second private jet, known as the Air Mayweather 2, gives us an in-depth tour of his Gulfstream aircraft.

His defiant caption read: “I just copped/ bought another toy, but I play with this one in the sky.

“I’m going to continue to set the bar high while they continue to pray on my downfall. I’m going to stay on my grind. Either you hate it, or you are motivated.

“2 planes give them 2 more small reasons to hate!”

It boasts 12 premium leather seats, gold-plated cup holders, and plenty of custom touches.

Not only is the name ‘Mayweather’ etched along the fuselage, his monogram reading ‘TMT’ (The Money Team) features near the entrance and on the rear wing.

Aside from this,  – and it turns out there’s a very good reason for this.

‘TMT’ also features in the embroidery of the seats and other interior upholstery.

His second post read: “Fresh out the paint shop, time to take a little trip overseas and pick up a bag!”

The exact cost of this new ‘toy’ has not been disclosed, but it’s speculated to be a multi-million dollar investment, comparable to  a $50 million Gulfstream G650 purchased in 2014.

Check out the more on the  here.

His first plane is primarily used for long-haul travel journeys to luxury destinations including Monte Carlo, Hong Kong, Bali, Fiji, and Tokyo.

The other ‘toys’ owned by Floyd Mayweather

Floyd Mayweather just ‘bought another NEW’, a second private jet called ‘Air Mayweather 2’

Calling himself ‘The Best Ever’ – a nod to his large unbeaten record in the ring – the controversial former boxer loves to flaunt his extravagant purchases.

He recently gave a tour of his But perhaps the rarest car Floyd Mayweather has ever owned is the

One of the fastest rides on the planet, the hypercar’s 4.7-liter V8 produces a whopping 1,108 horsepower, good for 0-100 m/h in 3.1 seconds and a top speed of 400km/h.

Only two units were ever produced, one of which made it to the US, where it lived in Floyd Mayweather’s garage until 201

“Music has always been part of our core at Apple, and bringing it to hundreds of millions of users in the way iPod did impacted more than just the music industry – it also redefined how music is discovered, listened to and shared,” said Greg Joswiak, Apple’s senior vice-president of worldwide marketing, at the time.

The original models—which can now be worth a lot of money—were designed as music players, but later versions could run numerous apps, meaning you could play games, watch videos, and even take photos.

And if reading all of this is making you miss your long-lost beloved iPod, then we’ve got some good news – because a company has created a case that can convert your Apple Watch into a ‘tinyPod’.

The teeny case allows you to scroll your existing Apple Watch apps – such as your music, emails, news, photos, podcasts, and maps – all from the palm of your hand, rather than on your wrist.

To really give it that iPod-feel, its even got a little wheel that works with your existing watch. Clever stuff.

The ‘tinyPod’ even comes with a physical scroll wheel

You might think that it would be best to just keep the windows on a passenger jet closed permanently, but cockpit windows have very practical purposes, mainly for when the plane is on the ground.

And it’s not just the Airbus A330: most commercial airliners will have at least one cockpit window that can be opened.

One reason for this is really simple – sometimes, the easiest form of communication is shouting out your window.

Before advanced communication systems were in place, pilots would deliver orders and chat to crew from the windows while parked.

Another use for these windows is as an alternative exit in case of emergency.

One lucky passenger even had their phone passed to them from the ground via the pilot on a 2022 Southwest Airlines flight.

Thankfully, cockpit windows have a mechanism that makes them impossible to open while the plane is pressurized.

The secret life of pilots

Functioning windows aren’t the only hidden gems commercial pilots have kept from us.

There are comfy beds, trapdoors beneath the cockpit, , and more, all concealed from view.

These features are especially valuable during long-haul flights, which can span an entire day.

While not hotel room-level roomy, they make sure crew members are comfier than the passengers below, trying to sleep in their seats.

And then there’s the  which looks like a futuristic spaceship.

Considering the unbelievably intense training these pilots have to go through, it seems only fair they have some special treats just for them.
