This is a video of science lover James Orgill from Youtube channel The Action Lab popping balloons in the loudest and quietest rooms at 3M’s Innovation Center. The loudest room is a reverberation chamber (is that what Darth Vader hung out in?) that reflects maximum sound waves, while the quietest

This is a video of a Delton8 drum and sampler synthesizer that’s been built into a custom case with the addition of a ferrofluid suspended in a clear window that moves to the beat you’re creating. That’s wild, it looks like it’s about to come to life. And maybe with

Built by mountain biker and experimental bike maker Sam Pilgrim (previously), this is a video of a side-by-side tandem mountain bike where both riders get a pair of pedals and handlebars, but only the right-hand rider can steer and use the brakes. Obviously, if you’re a control freak, you’ll want

This is a video of musician The Kiffness (previously) turning the audio of a cat named George Rufus who appears to say “Sometimes I’m alone. Hello? Sometimes I’m not” into a sad little song about loneliness. There’s nothing sadder than a sad cat, and a song about a sad cat

This is a video reimagining Star Wars in the style of the opening of Dukes Of Hazzard. Did you forget this was the internet? The internet loves Star Wars AND mashups, so it was only a matter of time really. Honestly, I’m surprised it took this long. What the hell,

This is a video from bar managers Markus and Chris of London’s Fallow Restaurant, who each wore a GoPro to show their drink-making during a busy Friday lunch service. Is that a martini? Wait — why’s everybody drinking at lunch on a Friday?! Are these people unemployed? Why can’t I

This is some POV footage from a Tesla Model 3 that’s had contact microphones placed near its motors so you can hear it in all its whirly glory when the driver steps on the gas accelerator. It sounds like a spaceshi, and I know what spaceships sound like. “Because you
