Inspired by Homer Simpson’s love of the most important food group, this is a hole-filled Les Paul style electric guitar painstakingly crafted by Artem Mayer of Copper Guitars to look like it was made from glazed donuts. It’s not actually made of donuts though (this is going to be a

This is a video of Durham, North Carolina’s infamous Norfolk Southern–Gregson Street Overpass (aka Can Opener Bridge, previous wrecks HERE) claiming its latest victim, an overheight towable RV. First it shears one of the rooftop AC units off before the entire RV gets stuck. It’s crazy how nonchalantly people crash

To celebrate the 50th anniversary of the movie that ended summer beach fun for me permanently, Hot Wheels just released a Jaws “You’re gonna need a bigger boat” toy. The package includes a die-cast replica of Quint’s Orca, as well as a die-cast metal Jaws and plastic waves diorama. I

Built by the folks at HTX Studio, this is a video highlighting the robotic trash cans they modified to move and catch any garbage thrown in their direction. That’s cool. That way the next time you’re tossing a pink overdue bill in the trash and yell “Kobe!” you don’t embarrass

This is a video of a paintballer demonstrating his skills by perfectly outlining a friend with paint like a circus performer throwing knives during a wheel of death act. He finishes the performance with a headshot and trio of buttshots. You can see his assistant tense up as the paint

This is a short video from Shandong, China during the recent Qingdao International Beer Festival of twin Raidens dancing atop giant Tesla coils and sharing some lightning between them. Whatever happened to not crossing the streams? I have to admit though, this is the exact sort of entertainment I would

Because dream it and you can kinda sorta make it happen occasionally, this is a video of mad inventor/engineer Allen Pan (previously) building two different versions of automatic trick-performing skateboards. The first is powered by drone rotors and isn’t great (note: he should revisit this build for making a hoverboard),

This is a hype reel for Unitree’s R1 robot, a 4-foot tall (don’t let the perspective fool you) humanoid robot that’s capable, based on what I gathered from the video, of cartwheels, handstands, and a ton of punching and kicking. The R1 starts at $5,900 (options like moveable hands instead
