This is a video of science lover James Orgill of The Action Lab wrapping a bitchin’ Nissan Altima in Musou Black Fabric Kiwami, a fabric that absorbs 99.9% of light that hits it. I WILL REFLECT NOTHING. Obviously, this is the perfect cover for getaway cars, provided you’re trying to

This is a video of photographer and diver Ian Haggerty going about making an omelet just about the wrongest way possible and cracking an egg 12 meters (~39 feet) underwater to see the effect the water pressure will have on it. The results may surprise you! Especially if you expected

Available as a 3D printable file from JBV Creative, this sine wave machine features marbles that roll in a sine wave as the machine is cranked. Hate cranking? Get creative and add a motor. Or a car engine! JBV also sells the file for a wave machine that’s only 8
