Captured by wildlife photographer Mark Smith, this is a video of an osprey exiting the ocean carrying a barracuda and flapping its ways back into the sky, having emerged from the sea victorious. I can’t even imagine how much energy is required to get airborne again after leaving the water

This is a video of the Slow-Mo guys attempting to skip bullets across the water in an aquarium like stones across a pond. That’s cool. Maybe not as cool as my stone-skipping skills, but with the perfect rock I can get three or four bounces sometimes. Without the perfect rock

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

Because for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction (typically me making a sour face that indicates I’m utterly unimpressed), this is a 9-minute video of a “multiverse” reaction machine. It’s multiverse because it was made by 14 different creators in different places, with each of the 31

This is a visualization imagining you’re a beam of light departing New York City, traveling the circumference of the Earth, and returning to New York City. How long does it take? Well since the speed of light is approximately 300,000km/s and the Earth is about 40,075km in circumference, it takes

This is a video of a crab man at what I assume is a swingers resort demonstrating the incredible power of refraction, with his body seemingly completely disconnected from his head in a curved glass (read: acrylic) walled pool. Physics! Still, as wild as this is, I imagine even crazier

This is a video of former English soccer player Jimmy Bullard demonstrating his ability to casually swing a pint glass of beer upside down without spilling any, all thanks to the magic of centripetal force. That is an impressive bar trick. Way more impressive then accidentally throwing the glass through

This is a phun little physics experiment in which two matches appear to kiss when lit. There’s also a video explaining how to set up the demonstration yourself in case your boredom reaches an all-time high this weekend. Were they really kissing though? That seems like a bit of a
