BMX Rider Successfully Lands World’s First Triple Flair

BMX Rider Successfully Lands World's First Triple Flair

This is a video of BMX rider Kieran Reilly successfully landing the world’s first triple flair, a triple backflip with a half twist at the end to land coming back down the custom-built ramp. Apparently the feat comes 16 years after the first double flair was landed. How much longer until the first successful quadruple flair? Your guess is as good as mine. I’m joking, your guess is always better than mine, except when it comes to the number of jellybeans in a jar. I’m like Rain Man when it comes to stuff like that and have the gift certificates to prove it.

13-Foot ‘Red Light, Green Light’ Doll From Squid Games Installed In Korea

13-Foot 'Red Light, Green Light' Doll From Squid Games Installed In Korea

A 13-foot statue in the likeness of the Young-hee doll used to play red light, green light (aka red light, dead light) in Squid Games has been installed at Olympic Park in Seoul, South Korea to give fans of the series “a chance to experience a bit of what it feels like being on Netflix’s mega hit show.” Numerous fans have flocked to the site to play a little red light, green light themselves, but without the fear of being shot if you move. But also without the chance of winning $38 million. I’d rather take my chances. “And participate in the actual Squid Games?” Blindfolded and handcuffed if I have to be just please pick me I owe a lot of people a lot of money.

Man Tries To Drive Tesla Model X Into Garage With Rear Falcon Door Open

Man Tries To Drive Tesla Model X Into Garage With Rear Falcon Door Open

This is some home security camera footage of some poor sap (not financially poor, mind you) who, after letting his kids out of the vehicle in the driveway, proceeds to drive his Tesla Model X into the garage with a rear falcon door still up, smacking it real good. You’d think the Tesla would be smart enough to not let you do that. The look on his face afterward says it all. ‘It all’ being ‘I should just abandon this life, buy a Miata and move to Daytona Beach, Florida — every night of the week a different redneck woman.’ At least I think that’s what it said, but I’ve been wrong before. Only once though, in a 3rd grade spelling bee. F*cking bewusstseinslage.

Driver Performs 1,000-Point Turn On Narrow Cliffside Road

Driver Performs 1,000-Point Turn On Narrow Cliffside Road

This is a video of a “driving expert” (ha — everyone behind the wheel considers themselves a driving expert) performing a turnabout on what can only be described as a road unfit for motor vehicles in the first place. My favorite part is the invisible guardrail. My hands started sweating the moment I started the video, and still are. Sucks too because I just shook hands with a marketing client and now he probably thinks I peed on them and didn’t wash my hands after. I always wash my hands after going to the bathroom though, it’s one of my rules. I don’t have many of them, but not living my life with penis fingers did make the list.

Daredevil Passes Through Windshield And Out Rear Of Van Doing 50MPH

Daredevil Passes Through Windshield And Out Rear Of Van Doing 50MPH

Because Russian daredevils take daredeviling far more seriously than the rest of the world, this is a video of Russian lunatic Evgeny Chebotarev passing through a van traveling at 50MPH by hopping up off a wooden support right as the van approaches him, cleanly traveling through the whole van from removed windshield to back doors and landing in the road as it passes arond him, having only traveled about four feet vertically during the whole stunt. For reference, that is totally nuts and I am definitely going to try it this weekend against the best wishes of everyone who cares about me, and the encouragement of everyone who doesn’t.

Keep going for several angles of the stunt to see how it was performed.

Thanks again to JustA, who agrees sometimes you just have to spit in Death’s eye and go for it.

The Pokemon Intro Recreated Using Only Stock Footage

The Pokemon Intro Recreated Using Only Stock Footage

From Matt Highton (of Spice Girls/Dune mashup fame) comes this video of the Pokemon cartoon intro recreated using only stock footage he edited together. The result is pretty impressive in a lot of ways, and pretty desperate in a lot of other ways (I’m looking at you, Blastoise). It kind of reminds me of the knock-off Pokemon toys I bought at the dollar store — Prokemüns I think they’re called. I tried passing them off to my niece and nephew for Christmas last year as the real deal, and they didn’t even bother to write thank-you cards. Those are some ungrateful kids you’re raising, Becky!
