This is a video from Wired highlighting the work of chalk artist Kurt Wenner, who creates realistic perspective pieces on a large scale. In the video, he discusses the various pieces he’s made, his process, and the challenges that arose while creating them. It was an interesting watch. Maybe not
This is some footage from the 2017 Iowa State Fair’s husband calling contest, in which wives compete by calling their husbands. Not on the phone, mind you — by yelling. The winner takes home a ribbon, five bucks, but, most importantly, bragging rights, which are invaluable. I may not have
This is a 60 Second Doc (plus another) video detailing the work of Sydney, Australia tattoo artist Jonny Hall, who produces tattoos with UV reactive elements. Jonny makes it clear he didn’t invent UV tattoos, but he’s known for adding UV elements to his realistic tattoos. I wonder how long

This is a video of pastry chef and chocolatier Amaury Guichon (previously) making an incredibly intricate — and delicate — nautilus sculpture entirely from chocolate. Wow! The process is pretty fascinating, and includes layering chocolate on semi-inflated balloons to form semi-spherical shapes. I wonder how much time in total it
