This is a video of a giant RC version of an English Electric Lightning fighter jet (which at times in the video is hard to believe is a model and not an actual full size aircraft) powered by two jet engines losing its front landing gear upon touchdown and having
Presumably training for breakdancing’s Olympic debut in the 2024 summer Olympics, this is a short highlight reel from a breakdancer, featuring some moves that can only be described as 50% dance, 50% contortionist act, and 110% making my whole body ache. I mean some of those moves were WILD. For

Because deception is everywhere, this is a video of professional magician Daniel Roy demonstrating ten different levels of sleight of hand card dealing tricks. They begin unbelievable, and end ultra-unbelievable, with Daniel able to deal any specific hand he wants to all players. Now that is some seriously smooth talent.
Presumably in an attempt to audition for the Ninja Turtles, this is a super short video of a man’s impressive spinning and flipping (plus knuckle cartwheel) routine while holding two swords. Are those real swords? I don’t think so. “Not bad, but fighting Shredder and the Foot Clan requires actual
