Sploid: Where awesome, wild, and breathtaking tech moments burst into view.
I think this is my new favorite way to re-watch movies that I have seen a million times already: just follow the story through the close up shots. It works surprisingly well! As in the of The Matrix, you can see Neo’s progression from outsider to The One and all the things that happened in…
Diving underneath ice might be the easiest way to be transported into another world that’s completely unlike ours. You need the correct equipment and you never want to be really trapped, but it looks completely ethereal. The colors, the shapes, the ceiling, it’s all so pristine and so beautiful. Kino Zig filmed this video of…
Game of Thrones is coming back for Season Five this Sunday, April 12th. Do you remember everything that happened in seasons 1 through 4?

Michael König’s Sun is a spectacular time lapse compilation of our star from the Solar Dynamics Observatory from 2011 to 2015.

These guys took a bunch of images from different peaks of Los Andes—the longest continental mountain range in the world located in the western coast of South America—drew a staff over them, and marked the peaks as notes. An orchestra played this random composition and the result is surprisingly beautiful. The project is called The…

I know which one is reality and which one is video game graphics and yet my brain keeps flip flopping and pretending like the video game is real life and real life is actually the game. The graphics are so impressive that in some angles, I honestly can’t tell which is which. This side-by-side video…
Ooh wee! Now this is a fun ride. A GoPro fell from 10,000 feet and basically went into like some sort of drug-induced hyperlapse speed mode as it plummeted to the ground. Basically, it spun all over the place and looks completely crazy. SPLOID is delicious brain candy. Follow us on Facebook or Twitter.
Don’t watch this excellent compilation video of Pixar movies if you have work you want to get done or plans for fun in the next few days. Because after you watch it, you’ll want to re-watch every single Pixar movie that has ever been made immediately. Just kidding, you’ll want to watch every Pixar movie…

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…
Our friends at Devin Super Tramp call this a real life version of Indiana Jones and it totally is if you crossed that Indy scene with the running of the bulls and a giant plastic bubble ball. I don’t know what’s more fun, being sloshed inside the tumbling ball while smushing your friends or trying…

Yes, I know it sounds utterly gross and something people only do in satanic ceremonies but blood is a pretty common ingredient in gastronomy. If you’ve ever tried blood sausages or black pudding you already know that blood, properly cooked, tastes delicious. This video from our friends at Malackaraj shows how to prepare it. SPLOID…

Even though my eyes see the artisan’s finger placed for reference next to the small piece of ebony at the beginning of the video, my brain can’t believe that the resulting pot is the size of his finger nail. The level of detail is so perfect that my stubborn mind still thinks it’s a full…
I still remember feeling like THX’s iconic Deep Note sound vibrated inside my chest whenever I watched a movie in a theater. So I guess it’s appropriate that the new, updated sequence gives me that same trembling sensation while also making it feel like I’m inside the body of some monster’s eyeball. It sounds perfectly…
Blink and you’ll miss him. That’s because mountain bike rider Eric Barone is going faster than anyone has ever gone on a mountain bike on snow. He reached 138.752 MPH on a bike with the help of a terrifyingly steep, snowy hill and the wonder of aerodynamic gear. He goes FAST. One wrong move or…
Who knew that Game of Thrones could be summed up with a simple game of musical chairs? Sesame Street did that’s who. Following up their on point parody of House of Cards, the muppets are back to teach kids about Game of Thrones. Well, minus the violence and sex and evil human plotting. In any…
