Back in November, things got really hairy for the royal couple!

Prince William and Kate Middleton were traveling back home from a humanitarian mission in Denmark when their pilot had to a steep emergency climb to air when another plan was late to clear the runway.

Their plane was only 200 feet away from landing!!!

Neither William nor Kate were hurt nor the rest of the passengers on the British Airways plane.

A source says that near crash was “a serious incident and would have been terrifying for those on board."

We'd have to agreed ten fold! Luckily their pilots were quick on their feet!

And they do some good while they are there.

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are in Denmark this week as part of the efforts to support UNICEF. William and Kate traveled specifically to Copenhagen this afternoon, to visit the UNICEF Supply Division Centre to see the efforts to distribute food and medical supplies to East Africa.

They have such strong desires to do good in the world, especially for the next generation. We're quite proud of all the work they do.

Famine is afflicting more than 13 million people (320,000 of them are children) in East Africa and the Royal Couple is stepping in to do something about it!

Prince William and his wife, Kate, have announced their plans to visit a UNICEF center in Copenhagen, Denmark, on Nov. 2 in an effort to learn about the distribution of emergency food and medical supplies in East Africa.

Both will help pack food and medical supplies for the crisis, on top of being briefed by UNICEF staff about the situation.

A statement released on behalf of the couple — who got engaged in Kenya — says they "will seek to maintain global attention on the crisis in East Africa, an area well known to the Duke and Duchess, where the situation is getting worse."

Good luck, guys!

Another study analyzing the link between cell phone usage and cancer has turned up positive results for the mobile phone companies!

Scientists from the Institute of Cancer Epidemiology in Copenhagen, Denmark have determined phones do not increase the risk of cancer.

Researchers studied more than 350,000 cell phone users who were all at least 30-years-old, then compared their rates of brain tumors to those who didn't use cell phones between 1990 and 2007.

This information clashes with the World Health Organization's belief that cell phones ARE possibly carcinogenic. While this makes us sleep better at night (right next to our cell phones, of course), we're sure another study will find a way to say otherwise and the debate will continue!
