Because it’s spooky season, this is a video of a freaky deaky four-legged street performer spotted in Japan. It took me a while to figure out how he was creating the four-legged illusion, and I don’t want to ruin it for you, but if you watch till the end you

This is a video of a crab man at what I assume is a swingers resort demonstrating the incredible power of refraction, with his body seemingly completely disconnected from his head in a curved glass (read: acrylic) walled pool. Physics! Still, as wild as this is, I imagine even crazier

This is a video of several snapping and mantis shrimps snapping/boxing filmed at 11,000 frames/second and producing cavitation bubbles (created when the static pressure of a liquid reduces to below the liquid’s vapor pressure, leading to the formation of small vapor-filled “bubbles” in the liquid). Even filmed at such high
