safety first
Why would someone bungee jump with a cord made out of condoms you ask? If you thought it was an effort to make a statement about safe sex, you're wrong. Apparently the only real motivation Carl Dionisio had for the attempt was his own lunacy—he was hoping to re-create the "virgin buzz" he had with his first jump. Over the course of four months he and a friend constructed the rope using 18,500 condoms and a tried-and-true mathematical formula. Despite being 99% sure it would work, Dionisio admitted that his stomach was "in a knot for a month before the jump."

Boa Sleeve Is Condom For MacBook Air, Only Stronger (We Checked)
Forget that tired old manila envelope joke, a new case by a company called Boa may just be the snuggest, sleekest wrapper for your MacBook Air. The Fashion Sleeve is plush-lined and offers what Boa calls "minimalist protection." At just .65mm thin, it's allegedly the thinnest Airbook case on the market. After seeing the pic, though, we theorized we could go thinner still by slipping a (large) condom over the thing. Here are the video results of our failed attempt to invent the official Gizmodo condom MBA case: More »

If you remember back in January at CES, our own Charlie White and his lovely assistant, Nancy, demonstrated the cellphone condom. Today I found a new video of the cellphone condom demo that doesn't quite go as well. The especially cold model is back in action demoing the condom only to have part of it snap off. It was above the knot, so the cellphone remained dry, but I wouldn't want to test it with any moderately large (and expensive) cellphones. See, kids, bigger isn't always better. More »

German Wang Spray is Instant Condom: From Liquid Rubber To Sweet Love in One Second
A German firm has developed a spray-on condom for all your lifestyle needs. The liquid condom comes in an aerosol can that you spray onto the organ in question. A few seconds later, the liquid solidifies into the familiar latex and forms a tight seal. The company says it's a great time saver and is easier to use than traditional condoms. It's still in the testing phase (in fact, they're looking for volunteers right now) so it might be a while before it hits the neighborhood drug store. Now there's no "but I hate putting it on" excuses. And anything that promotes safety and responsibility is A-OK in our books (usually). More »
