This is a video of a man performing 27 flips down a sand dune in 25 seconds. That is a lot of flips. I would have definitely puked afterwards. Or, much more likely, somewhere in the middle. And that’s assuming I don’t sprain my ankle on the very first flip.
This is a video from the Wayside Waifs no-kill animal shelter in Kansas City, Missouri in which staff members pull slips of paper out of a bowl, each with a different cat trait written on it that they match a feline to. Apparently the video was a success and these
This is a video captured by the kind folks of the Southwest Virginia Wildlife Center Veterinary Hospital in Roanoke of a female opossum growling, presumably upset about having to take a trip to the doctor. I’m right there with you, Ms. Opossum, I growl the entire time until I get

Could you imagine if you were enjoying a pleasant beach day and a Strandbeest walked by? That would be wild. Even wilder if it tried to
This is a video of a cleverly designed Japanese condiment packet that dispenses both ketchup and mustard in equal parts simultaneously. I always knew I could count on Japan for this sort of innovation. Granted, rarely do I want equal parts of ketchup and mustard on anything. I’m usually 2/3s
