Why Glass Bottles Shatter at the Bottom When You Smack the Top with Your Bare Hands

There’s nothing quite like using the scientific method to figure out what’s happening in a silly party trick that we’ve seen way too many times (if you’ve been to bad parties, at least): the ol’ smack the top of a glass bottle and watch the bottom burst out in shards gag. The always intrepid Mark…

Video: Making a handmade glass bottle from sand is so hard

The concept is easy enough to follow: find sand, melt the crap out of it at over 2000 degrees Fahrenheit, and then watch sand turn into glass. But when you want to do something with that molten glass like say, make a glass bottle, it gets so much harder. You have to juggle so many…

The making of this black crystal bottle is ridiculously precious

There’s a problem when you make things too precious, people are going to be afraid to use it. Take this Remy Martin Louis XIII cognac bottle, it’s made by Baccarat Crystal and passes through the hands of twenty people before it’s finished. Sure, it’s fun to see black crystal transformed into a decanter for liquor…

BlackBerry Party in London Turns Sour as a Guy Is Stabbed In the Neck

It’s been a rough old week for RIM, which has had to fight back against reports that it’s hanging up its coat in the consumer-room and will only service the corporate types. Now, this: a 30-something man who was “glassed” at a party to celebrate the BBM service last night in London, where Jessie J…

Bacteria Battling Water Bottle Uses a UV Blasting Cap

Camelbak’s best known for its water-filled backpacks, but instead of focusing on just hydration, the company’s new All Clear bottle incorporates a bacteria eliminating ultraviolet cap for those times when you have to fill up from a non-filtered source.

Who Knew Opening a Bottle of Champagne With an Iron or Wine Glass Looked So Damn Suave?

Buying an Empty Bottle of Kitchen Cleaner Actually Isn’t a Scam

Replenish knows something that you might not—almost all (they claim 95%) of cleaning agents are water. The rest is the chemical concentrate that gets things done. So why pay for water? Replenish sells empty bottles and concentrate. Simple. When the bottle arrives, you just fill it up with your own tap water and pop on…

Champagne Bottles Get A New Design In The Name Of The Environment

The champagne industry is looking to update the iconic champagne bottle. They’re slimming the shoulders to make a lighter bottle in an effort to cut their carbon footprint. That slight difference will be like removing 4,000 cars from the road. The classic bottle of bubbly is 900 grams (which is 2 pounds and heavier than…

Designer Karim Rashid has a knack for off-the-wall designs, so I wasn’t surprised to see his name attached to the Iamo Go baby bottle concept.
