A First Person POV Ride On A 0 – 50MPH In 3 Seconds Motorbike Coaster
This is a first person POV ride on a Vekoma motorbike coaster in operation at Toverland in the Netherlands. The coaster launches riders from 0 – 46.6MPH in 3 seconds. And while there are certainly faster coasters and ones with quicker acceleration out there, the motorbike coaster is unique in that you’re actually sitting on a bike with most of your whole upper body free, so you can flail around like a wacky inflatable tube man. That probably makes that 46.6MPH feel like 200MPH. Whee! I still remember the first time I fell out of Space Mountain.
Unlikely Cat And Mouse Friends Caught Hanging Out On Security Cam
This is some security cam footage of a cat and mouse hanging out after dark. Me? I don’t do any hanging out after dark, I curl up in bed with a book, followed by nightmares. I wonder if they got that cat to deal with their mouse problem and set up the camera to see how it fared against its prey. SPOILER: Not very well. At one point I’m pretty sure they even fist-bumped. You sold me a defective cat! I want one like in the cartoon. “Garfield?” No, Tom and Jerry, dammit!
Maybelline Adds Giant Eyelash To Buses, Trains, Drives Under Giant Mascara Brush
This is a video from Maybelline (FULL DISCLOSURE: I wasn’t born with it, and it isn’t Maybelline either, just hard living) showing off the giant eyelash they attached to London double-decker buses and subway cars to drive under a giant mascara brush of Sky High Mascara. Call me crazy, but I didn’t really notice a difference in the length of the eyelash after the Sky High treatment. I thought this was supposed to make eyelashes look longer and fuller. Thanks but no thanks, a glue stick and feathers work just fine.
Thanks again to JustA, who actually was born with it, and Maybelline just puts her over the edge. Yow yow!
Water Draining From Above Breaks Car’s Rear Window, Floods Interior
This is a short video of a car parked underneath a high water drain that is absolutely gushing, so hard that it’s broken the car’s rear window and is doing a quick job of turning the interior into a kiddy pool. Congratulations, now you have a water ride! The only thing that would make the video better is if Xzibit popped out of the trunk wearing a snorkel and water wings and told the owner he heard they like water parks.
Thanks to JustA, who agrees somebody is having a bad day, and just doesn’t know it yet.
Man Drives Jetboat On Shore, Through Campsite, Onto Trailer
Because with enough cheap domestic beer anything is possible, this is a video of McCoy Lindquist steering his mini, metal-hulled jetboat onto land, through a campsite, and right onto its boat trailer. Impressive! Even more impressive? If he’d hit a jump in the water and landed it on the trailer. Now crack open another case and get it to it.
Thanks to my dad, who agrees there’s a fine line between genius and insanity, and this man is straddling it like a mechanical bull.
Woman’s Wingstop Rant Turned Into Amazing Power Metal Ballad
This is a video of a very hangry woman (I’d argue she’s actually henranged) ranting about how badly she needs to go to Wingstop because she hasn’t eaten all day, which has been turned into a solid power metal ballad by drummer drewonthekit. Of course it doesn’t hurt that the source material was so good, with lyrics like “I WORKED 10 HOURS, ALL I WANT IS WINGSTOP, F***ING DRIVE!” and “IM F***NG STARVING, SQUID! WHAT DID YOU EAT TODAY? I ATE NOTHING!” If this doesn’t make the top 10 chart I have no more faith in music.
Why does this go so hard?!?! pic.twitter.com/zYWkQgjSCl
