Allegedly inspired by little handheld foam disc launching pistols and not the saw-blade guns from video games (do you even game, bro?), this is a video of Youtuber Current Concept building a saw blade launcher. Unfortunately for a nit-picking complainer like me, it launches the blades straight using flywheels without
This is a video of acrobatic conceptor Dave Locke kicking swords at a dummy strapped to a wheel of death (at least I hope it’s a dummy). I couldn’t tell if Dave was trying to hit the dummy, or just hit around it. Because he only succeeds in hitting around
This is another mashup from Youtuber There I Ruined It (previously), featuring Christmas classic Rudolph The Red-Nosed Reindeer performed in the style of a Creed song. It’s really…something. Will I be playing this at my Christmas party this year? Yes, on repeat and at full volume. And, if anybody manages

Because everybody dreams of setting a different record (I dream of setting the human hibernation record), this is a video of French cyclist Aurelien Fontenoy hopping his bike up all 686 stairs to the second floor of the Eiffel Tower. I can’t even imagine if it took 686 stairs to
Because ‘Black Mirror’ was actually just a regular mirror all along, AI app 2wai (pronounced 2-way) creates digital avatars that you can interact with, promising to connect the currently living with the currently dead for a monthly fee. Because that’s something we’ve been needing. Allegedly all that’s needed is a
