This is a video of disgusting monster (I’m just jealous) Mike Jack setting the Guinness World Record for most hot sauce consumption in 3 minutes, slurping down a respectable 1.123 kilograms (2.48 pounds) of Sriracha in 180 seconds. According to Guinness World Record Adjudicator Juliet Dawson, “It was one of

Tom BetGeorge (previously), who owns and operates Magical Light Shows is back at it with his synchronized home Halloween light and music display for 2024. It looks like this year every window has an LED display. That’s nuts. And, I think I speak for every kid in the neighborhood when

This is a video of musician Christian E. Boeger playing the ‘Les Pallet’ electric guitar he constructed out of a wooden shipping pallet. It sounds great. Is it practical? Absolutely not, but there’s never been a more appropriate guitar for smashing and setting ablaze at the end of a live

Because Halloween is time for smashing pumpkins (Billy Corgan, let’s ride!), this is a video of hippos at the Cincinnati Zoo chomping pumpkins whole.

This is a video of a cleverly assembled invisible man Halloween costume that you can make yourself on the cheap. I can’t see his face! I also can’t see any way to drink a cocktail while wearing it, which is a major drawback. Can’t be bothered to actually make a

Crafted by Swiss designers team’by’wellis, this is a video demonstration of a wooden dining table that can expand its width without the use of traditional leaves. That…looks expensive. I can’t even imagine the amount of time and effort that went into building that table. Is that specifically for Thanksgiving dinner?

Because who hasn’t dreamed of piloting their own AT-AT walker through the side of a neighbor’s house, this is a video of engineer James Bruton constructing his own roughly 7-foot tall rideable AT-AT. It moves at a snail’s pace (even slower than in the movies), but I would still proudly
