Craig Murray (left), former British ambassador to Uzbekistan and associate of Julian Assange (right), told the Dailymail.com he personally received Clinton campaign emails in Washington D.C. after they were leaked by 'disgusted' whisteblowers - and not hacked by Russia. He claims he had a clandestine hand-off in a wooded area near American University with one of the email sources. The leakers' motivation, he says, was 'disgust at the corruption of the Clinton Foundation and the 'tilting of the primary election playing field against Bernie Sanders.' Murray says: 'The source had legal access to the information. The documents came from inside leaks, not hacks. But regardless of whether the Russians hacked into the DNC, the documents Wikileaks published did not come from that,' Murray insists.

What would REALLY happen if an asteroid struck the ocean: Simulation reveals BILLIONS of tons of water would loft into the atmosphere - but tsunami risk is smaller than you'd think

An asteroid collision would have devastating effects if the impact occurred within 10-20 kilometers of a populated coastline, spurring severe flooding, shockwaves, extreme temperatures, and hurricane force winds.

Hightailing it! Dog pulls off amazing trick of leapfrogging OVER other pups on its hind legs 

A new video has emerged showing a talented pooch hopping down the street on its hind legs, and jumping straight over three other dogs that were playing dead on the road. The bizarre-yet-wonderful game of leapfrog has since lit up social media after the cute clip was posted online earlier this week. Appearing on the video sharing website Jukin Media , it is unclear where the footage was filmed. It starts with the three dogs lying on the road and acting as hurdles, as the 'star of the show' prepares to start jumping. Suddenly, the dog simply hops straight over the first pup (left), and moves on to the next (center), and then a third dog (right).
