Proof that distance means nothing to true friendship, these are a couple videos of BFFs Sadie and Rollo catching up by whining and howling at each other over FaceTime. Sadie and Rollo used to live together, but after their owners got places of their own further away, they now FaceTime

Building on the success of its predecessors, the SpyraThree is a fully automatic water gun that can blast 30ml water squirts up to 30 feet (50 feet with a sniper ‘power shot’). The battery powered gun (USB rechargable) can reload itself in just 10 seconds by submerging the barrel in

These are several videos from the Slow Mo Guys shot at a blistering 90,000 frames per second, then played back at 25 FPS, stretching every one second of action into an hour. Highlights include Dan getting smacked in the face with a soccer ball, a bullet tearing a playing card

This is a Great Big Story interview with Australian voice actor Karen Jacobsen, jokingly known as “the only woman men will take directions from.” Since 2002, Karen has been the voice of over 1-billion GPS devices and smartphone apps. Ha, I knew I recognized her from somewhere! She lives in

This is a side-by-side-by-side-by-side comparison of a cigarette lighter being lit, shot using four different Phantom highspeed cameras, capturing the action at 3,200FPS, 5,300FPS, 8,300FPS, and Matrix-speed 28,500FPS. That 28,500FPS footage doesn’t even look real. *touching earpiece* I’m being told it is though. “Who was that?” My fact-checker. “Wait —

Because nothing quite screams robot apocalypse like a flying robotic spider, researchers at the University of Tokyo’s robotics department have developed just that, in the form of SPIDAR. What does SPIDAR stand for? Why ‘SPherIcally vectorable and Distributed rotors assisted Air-ground amphibious quadruped Robot’ of course! Jeez, use your brain.

This is some home security cam footage of a charging iPhone 4 spontaneously combusting. Now I know what you’re thinking, “An iPhone 4, really? Those came out way back in 2010 — they probably aren’t even compatible with today’s electricity.” And I’d be inclined to agree with you if I
