This is a video from Instagram user and rollerblader the_stuttering_skater providing a follow-cam for roller skater dev2me as he flies through a tunnel in reverse. Such control. For reference, I’m an incredible roller skater (I really am), but only going forwards. I’ve just never been able to master skating in
This is the entirety of The Clash’s 1979 album London Calling, but nothing but the lead vocals, as isolated by recording engineer ieatmdf. Wait — medium-density fibreboard? That can’t be a healthy diet. If you’re a Clash fan the video is definitely worth a listen — I particularly liked hearing

This is a video of a Singaporean foursome performing a choreographed indoor skydiving routine at the 2023 World Indoor Skydiving Championships, complete with a bunch of flips and twists and hand-holding and all sorts of other fun stuff. You know, I’ve always considered trying this indoor skydiving thing, but I’m
These are several video examples of artist Damien Beneteau’s Spherical Variations, chrome and matte black balls on a pendulum that pass through a lit portal, producing some pretty trippy visuals in the process. And you know how I feel about trippy visuals! “They scare you.” They’re absolutely terrifying. Isn’t life
