This is a short video of a contortionist riding a scooter with his feet somehow behind his back. That does not look comfortable. Or safe. If you crash, both those legs are broken AND you’re gonna need all new teeth. Me? I like my teeth the same way they were

This is the officially licensed Godzilla bust tissue dispenser made by Japanese company Rotary Hero. The box is designed to be displayed vertically, and the tissue next in line for use appears almost as if it’s smoke billowing from Godzilla’s mouth. I like how they spelled out GODZILLA on the

To celebrate (read: promote) the PS4 release of Tony Hawk Pro Skater 1 & 2, this is a video of the Hacksmith building a robotic skateboard that performs a kickflip with the push of the cross (read: X) button on a Playstation controller. You just jump, push the button, and

This is a 12-minute claustrophobic compilation of spelunkers squeezing themselves through incredibly tight spots underground, complete with an audio track that doesn’t make things any better. It all looked like a nightmare to me. I mean anybody who would do this — there has to be something fundamentally wrong with

This is ‘Doubts’, a rug that looks like it’s melting onto the floor as designed by structural textile artist Faig Ahmed. But does it have a deeper meaning? Gosh, I sure hope so: “We started the production of this work a month before the whole world plunged into doubts about

This is a drone video captured by Youtuber DoctorSbaitso around San Francisco yesterday, September 9th at 11AM, with the entire sky looking red and orange as a result of the nearby wildfires. Youtuber Zach Fett then added ‘2049’, the score from Blade Runner 2049 to the video since it looks

This is a video of very capable builder of things and Youtuber DIY Perks constructing a computer inside a table for an ultra-clean look. He kinda reminds me of Theon Greyjoy. Some timestamps to help you navigate the almost 30-minute long video while I build a PC in the bottom

These are two videos highlighting the work of Swiss artist Simon Berger, who creates portraits in broken safety glass using nothing but a hammer and hand-eye-coordination. For reference, I tried making a similar portrait once but it didn’t turn out that great and my parents made me apologize and pay

This is a video from The Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute’s Deep RelaxOcean series of guided relaxation videos, this time focusing on the movement of a deep sea vampire squid. Personally, I did not find it very relaxing. I find everything about the deep sea terrifying, and just thinking about

This is a video of Instagrammer yorkshire.fossils (I prefer the pudding myself) smacking a rock open with a hammer to reveal the perfect ammonite fossil inside. What are the odds?! “Well based on all the other ammonite fossils just lying around, I’m guessing pretty good.” You ruin everything, you know
