Months in the making, this is a video of KaplaBen building and demolishing an ~18,000 Kapla block tower. Ben says he began construction in November 2024 and completed it in April 2025. Amazing nobody snuck in and knocked it over in that time. The tower is the third prototype Ben
Cats: they’re born rulers. And what better way to demonstrate their sovereignty than forcing their owner to build them forts? This is a video of Chris Burton of Half-Asleep Chris (I’m 95% Asleep Jack) building ten different forts for his cats Ralph and Bella using (in order): cardboard shipping tubes,
Unrelenting in its efforts to dig to the very bottom of my murse, LEGO is releasing a Lord of The Rings: The Shire build set. The set will cost $270 *spit-takes Miruvor* when it’s released April 5th and contains 2,017 pieces, including nine minifigs and a very tiny One Ring.

It’s crazy the way the pieces just seem to float around the rotating spindle floor. How people come up with stuff like this is beyond
Determined to make it happen for reasons I’ll never understand, this is a video of Youtuber Engineezy designing and building a machine that harvests the energy of falling marbles to charge a phone. Does the device consume more electric energy lifting the marbles than it produces? What do you think?
Because there’s nothing you can’t do with LEGO, this is a video from the Brick Experiment Channel (previously), this time engineering LEGO cars to cross increasingly narrower bridges, eventually crossing just a string stretched between two tables. The solutions to balancing the vehicles while crossing the bridges are quite ingenious.
Because who hasn’t dreamed of piloting their own AT-AT walker through the side of a neighbor’s house, this is a video of engineer James Bruton constructing his own roughly 7-foot tall rideable AT-AT. It moves at a snail’s pace (even slower than in the movies), but I would still proudly
