Planes: it’s hard to believe they even work. Although I suppose with enough wind wizards held captive in the cargo hold, anything is possible. This is a visualization comparing the sizes of various aircraft from diminutive one-seaters, to the 747, AND BEYOND. I learned a lot by watching it. Mostly,
This is a flight demonstration of a 1:3.5 scale Black Airwolf Bell-222 R/C helicopter. Now that is one big R/C chopper! The absolutely massive unit measures a very respectable 4.25m (14-feet) in length, with a rotor of 3.75m (12.25-feet). Wow. This thing makes me wonder: at what point do you

Could you even imagine? I can’t even imagine. And this is coming from a guy who once bodyboarded a 18-incher in Ocean
In Metal Gear Solid news, this is a video from the fun-loving Finnish couple of Beyond The Press at a factory to see how a 10-ton bevel gear is machined. How are they machined? Very slowly, and it takes about two weeks to finish one gear. For reference, if I
This is a video from 2019 of 7’1″ Shaquille O’Neal stuffing himself into a Smart Car in New York City the same way I assume sausage is made at the factory. Honestly though, it doesn’t actually seem that all that bad. Now if the entire 2002 Los Angeles Lakers team
