David Hole's metal-detecting adventure in 2015 began as a hunt for gold but ended with a discovery from outer space. While exploring Maryborough Regional Park near Melbourne, Australia, Hole uncovered a strange, heavy rock buried in yellow clay.
Convinced it contained a nugget of gold, he brought it home and attempted everything from a sledgehammer to acid to break it open—but the rock remained intact.

In the clip, Christine is seen matter-of-factly telling her granddaughter — who is off camera — to take things one step at a time and to stay in the present.
"Look at yourself in the mirror, wash your face, put your makeup on, put your clothes on and then say, ‘What must I do next? I must have a little breakfast,’ or ‘I must have a cup of tea, and then I will start to do this little thing that needs doing,’ " Christine, a former teacher, says.
“You’re not going to worry about anything else but that at that moment,” she continues. “And then when you’ve done that, you think, ‘I’m dressed, I’ve got some makeup on. I’ve done that task it’s taken me two hours or three hours. I need a cup of tea in the cafe and the gallery. I’ll go there and have it. That’s my reward and I deserve it.’”
