This is a rare outtake from the 1964 production of Mary Poppins in which stars Julie Andrews and Dick Van Dyke lip-sync each other’s singing parts to ‘Chim Chim Cher-ee’. It looks like they were having a blast. There’s also an outtake of Julie yodeling to get the magic smoke

A 17th century female ‘vampire’ was found buried in Poland with a sickle across her neck in order to prevent her from rising from the dead and feasting on the blood of the living. She also had a padlock attached to her big toe. Now I’m not sure if the

This is some footage (including awesome on-board clips) from the 1966 Monaco Grand Prix that’s been upscaled to 1080p and 60 frames/second. If I didn’t know any better, I’d just assume it was footage from an old remastered action movie. And maybe it is, I wouldn’t be able to tell

This is some footage captured along China’s Yulong River of the Golden Dragon boat slowly making its way downstream. The boat, which consists of 80 separate rafts connected to one another, measures a respectable 2,300-feet long all together. That’s an impressive dragon! Maybe not as impressive as my dragon, but
