Watch two lunatics base jump off a rooftop bar in the middle of London

Here’s a recipe for fun: Go up to the 48th floor of a skyscraper in London. Enjoy a beer at the rooftop bar. Change into your base jumping gear in the restroom. Make a beeline for the balcony and jump into the heart of London. Illegal? Probably. Fun as hell to watch? Absolutely. Two anonymous…

Time lapse of an airport makes airplanes look like shooting stars

Aside from going through security and lugging around your carry on and rushing to the gate and avoiding human swarms, airplanes are magical places. Okay, maybe not. But there’s beauty in how they operate. Just watch this ballet of airplanes at Shanghai’s airport. It’s like seeing man made shooting stars. Or a light dance with…

Bungee jumping in a F1 car seems like a crazy thing to do

Here’s video from Top Gear showing the Stig making a 300 foot bungee jump while strapped inside a F1 car. It’s exhilarating and completely nuts but must have been so ridiculously fun to do. Sometimes, just bungee jumping or just driving an F1 car isn’t enough. You gotta do both at the same time. SPLOID…

Adorable dog balances 100 different fruits and vegetables on its head

Watch how the creator of Peanuts drew Charlie Brown

Here’s how Charles Schulz, the trailblazing cartoonist who created Peanuts, drew Charlie Brown. I love his sure strokes and how he builds out the character but most importantly, I love how he’s done in less than half a minute. The Peanuts channel also has other videos of other artists drawing other Peanuts characters. This one…

How a documentary about Eskimos explains our stupid reality TV obsession

We can trace the world’s obsession with curvaceous humanoids like Kim Kardashian and mannequin dolls named after cities and hotel chains back to the first documentary ever made: Nanook of the North. It was a documentary that faked the life of eskimos to entertain people. Does that sound familiar? Why yes of course. That’s basically…

This mesmerizing machine rolls and unrolls condoms

It’s like watching an orchestra. One arm of the machine maintains a gentle yet precise grip on the condom, swooping down and up on the metal rod. Another brushes the rubber while the machine in the back sucks it back in for packaging. It’s a never ending cycle. One day we will make a How…

In fact, CGP Grey explains in ‘Humans Need Not Apply’ how it’s already happening around us right now.

Here’s how much lighting can change the way someone’s face looks

It’s obviously not a secret that lighting has the ability to change how a person’s face looks but photographer Sebastian Petrovski wanted to show how dramatic that difference could be in his photo series Perception Is Reality.

Pixels rearrange themselves and morph into different works of art

The Creators Project points to a neat little project where famous works of art are re-arranged and transformed into other famous works of art. So the Mona Lisa can become American Gothic and vice versa. It’s like seeing art become a wonderful illusion. The project was done as a sort of programming puzzle at CodeGolf.…

Land diving is way scarier than bungee jumping

Bungee jumping seems like a much safer alternative when you’re comparing it to the ancient tradition of land diving (or nagol). National Geographic shows how villagers in the South Pacific jump off a rickety 100 foot tower toward the ground with only vines attached to their ankles. Crazy. And even if you can get over…

A lightsaber katana is the closest we’ll get to Star Wars in real life

I’m still holding out hope for light sabers in the future but with our world’s technological limitations and silly allocation of resources, the most beautiful deadly sword-type weapon we can create without lasers might be this mashup of a lightsaber and katana made by Man At Arms: Reforged. It’s mostly a katana with an intricately…

Dogs jumping for treats in slow motion

The focus. The determination. The body control. The complete satisfaction. It all comes together when a dog jumps in the air for a treat. It’s so fun to see, the dog jumps in the air without ever thinking about landing, it’s 100 percent concentrated on the treat. And once it chomps down, that face of…

Cars exploding in drag races look like they are made out of Jell-O

The NHRA put together this gnarly video compilation of wild rides from the first half of the 2014 season and it’s just nuts. These drag races look a lot more like horizontal rocket launches crossed with the flames of Ghost Rider than the cars you and I drive. The slow motion ones are the best,…
