This is a clip from How It’s Made taking a tour inside the Duke’s Mayonnaise factory to show how the condiment is manufactured in quantity. It was pretty fascinating to watch. Of course if you don’t have the five minutes to watch the video I’ll just tell you how it’s
This is a video of Adam Savage designing, building, and testing a dart shooting helmet (built using D-DART Pro Blasters, Amazon link), complete with revolving warning light on top and a laser sight. As far as dart-shooting helmets go, this is probably the best one I’ve seen. Of course it’s

Because nothing says Australia quite like kangaroos and boomerangs, this is a video of the two combined into a kangaroo shaped boomerang crafted by Redditor Ravi from Texas (wait, what?). Damn, that thing flies NICE. Did you know there are left-handed and right-handed boomerangs? I did not, which might explain
