This is a clip of a man (who I swear I posted on Geekologie back in the day — glad to see he’s still at it) demonstrating his complete disregard for gravity by balancing a number of glass bottles on each other in precarious ways. He also does some blindfolded
Pastry artist and chocolatier Amaury Guichon is back at it (it being absurd amounts of shaped chocolate, previously), this time constructing a massive LEGO minifig of himself entirely out of his semi-sweet medium of choice.

This is a tour detailing the process in which zinc-carbon AA batteries are manufactured at a Chinese factory, which can produce up to 500,000 batteries a day. That’s a lot of batteries! And what percentage of those do you think end up in a person’s butt? My guess is the

This is a clip of a life-size R/C flying Superman model, complete with mannequin head and terrible haircut. I say life-size, but I think it’s actually more young Superman, or Superboy sized. I mean it’s not 6’3″. It certainly should have been though. I mean if you can make something
