The Guinness World Record for largest display of carved eggs was recently awarded to Chinese artist Ma Chao for the 1,040 intricately carved eggshells he’s produced.

Previously seen letting mushrooms play a keyboard, Youtuber BionicandtheWires is back with another video, this time allowing a colony of oyster mushrooms to paint a picture.

Presumably with almost as much power as the toy, this is a video of a Suzuki Twin Kei that’s been modded by the crew at The Car Zoo in Middlesbrough, North Yorkshire, England into a lookalike of a Little Tykes Cozy Coupe. Not just the exterior either, they did the
Because everybody spends their free time differently, this is a video from pop artist Rudy Willingham, who made a stop-motion video of Post Malone singing ‘Circles’ using 133 pieces of toast. While the bread is certainly toasted, I suspect the faces were actually made using stencils and a blowtorch or
