Produced by the Mint Of Poland (Mennica Polska), the UFO MP-1766 is billed as the first “flying coin”, with the ability to levitate atop a special base. The coin actually has a tiny motor inside, which spins and allows it to hover thanks to the magnetic field generated by the

These are a couple videos from psychologist Edgar Ciancio, who attached the business end of a garden hose to the cone of a subwoofer to vibrate the water coming out in sync with the sound waves produced. Pretty cool, and I can’t wait to demonstrate this at my next BBQ

This is a compilation of jump cuts created by bug lover and Instagram user bughaus_adi of insect eggs, and the full grown insects that they develop into. There is also a series of juvenile insects vs adult insects. Those orchid mantises are wild. That spider too. I did warn you

Because Mother Nature never ceases to amaze (I once saw her ride a mechanical bull upside down waving her legs like arms), this is a timelapse video of a stick insect molting its old skin. It’s so crazy to think this is the process that evolution developed over tens of
