January 9th: The RUMOR of the Original iPhone Launch!
from “Have YOU heard?” · host Troy W. Hudson
Have YOU heard? January 9th is National Law Enforcement Appreciation Day. It started in 2015 to show support for our officers in blue. Fun fact: the first organized police force in America began in Boston in 1838 with just six full-time officers. Today, there are over 800,000 police officers serving communities across the nation! On January 9, 1934, archaeologists discovered the remains of a 10,000-year-old giant ground sloth in New Mexico! These prehistoric creatures were the size of modern elephants and stood up to 20 feet tall on their hind legs. The first iPhone was unveiled by Steve Jobs on January 9, 2007. But here's what most people don't know: the iPhone shown during that famous presentation wasn't fully functional! The prototype was so fragile that Jobs had to follow a very specific demo sequence to prevent it from crashing. Talk about a high-stakes performance! Want to hear something truly amazing? On this day in 1793, Jean-Pierre Blanchard completed the first successful hot air balloon flight in North America! He carried a letter from George Washington, making it the first-ever air mail delivery in America. ⏰ Timestamps: 00:18 National LAW ENFORCEMENT APPRECIATION Day 00:45 Giant Ground Sloth was dug up in 1934 01:10 First iPhone was unveiled by Steve Jobs 01:38 1793 First successful Hot Air Balloon flight in North America Watch and Enjoy!
