Another day, another never-before-seen video of an underwater alien (previously: a colossal squid). This time, a living specimen of a Gonatus antarcticus squid that was filmed at a depth of 7,000-feet in the Southern Ocean while shooting a video for National Geographic. The species was only previously described via dead specimens. The squid was identified as Gonatus Antarcticus thanks to the hook it has at the end of each tentacle, an adaptation that presumably evolved for attaching to the deck railing of pirate ships to pull them down to Davey Jones’s locker. I’m kidding, this thing is only 3-feet long. With nothing in the video for scale though, feel free to send it to your friends and tell them it’s the length of three school buses and was spotted near the beach where they vacation.

This is a Twix commercial that was recently banned in Britain after the Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) ruled the ad “condoned unsafe driving.” Yeah, leave that to virtually every non-minivan car commercial in the U.S.

[The ASA] took issue with the first half of the video that showed driving “that appeared likely to breach the legal requirements of the Highway Code”.

Mars-Wrigley, who own Twix, argued that the ad had a “cinematic presentation” and was set in a “world that was absurd, fantastical and removed from reality”, which Clearcast, the non-governmental organisation that approves adverts before broadcast, echoed.

Should the commercial be banned for promoting unsafe driving? No, but it should be banned for not being a good commercial. Whatever happened to good commercials? We should bring those back. And any commercial with somebody yelling or a goat bleating should be banned and the company forced out of business. I’m looking at you, Geico.

Because there’s nothing you can’t build with LEGO besides a comfortable sleeping partner, this is a video of Youtuber Dr. Engine constructing and demonstrating a rolling mill made from LEGO. The mini-factory can flatten, stamp, and cut shapes out of modeling clay. How about that! Full disclosure: when I started writing this article before watching the video I read rolling machine and assumed it rolled joints. This is neat too though.

Using nanolithography, Dr. Kelly Morrison and her team at Loughborough University in Leicestershire, England have created the world’s smallest violin, measuring only 35 microns long and 13 microns wide. For reference, the average width of a human hair is about 50 microns. Damn, that’s one small violin! Unfortunately it’s not actually playable, which is a shame because I’d love to bust this thing out and perform ‘My Heart Bleeds For You’ whenever a friend tells me what a bad day they’ve having because the barista at Starbucks spelled their name wrong. I need new friends. Ones with REAL problems that make me constantly think, “Well, at least I’m not Dave.”

Video below that explains the technology in case you aren’t familiar with nanolithography.

In damn that’s huge but still much smaller than the real thing news, this is a video of Youtuber Ramy RC flying an absolutely massive model airplane version of a Boeing 777X. The incredibly realistic replica measures 10 meters (33-feet) long and has tons of features of the actual plane. From the footage and sound of it flying you’d swear it was the real thing. But what’s its payload capacity? Asking for a guy who wants to catch the next flight to the corner store for a Slim Jim and some lotto scratchers.

Because the internet, just like an unruly 3-year old, refuses to sleep when it should, this is a video from the Bell Bros of Sesame Street’s Big Bird (plus Count von Count) edited into Alfred Hitchcock’s 1963 avian horror film The Birds. The whole thing is set to Outkast’s 2000 banger “B.O.B” (which Big Bird appears to sing), so it sort of serves as a music video for the song as well. Of all the things I didn’t expect to see on the internet today, this is one of them. There are a million more, but this was definitely one. I should have known better.
