A throwback to the original X-Games Mode video, this is a video of parkour athlete/stuntman Bob Reese going self-proclaimed X-Games Mode on a boogie board in a flooded skatepark pool. Was that really X-Games mode? It’s debatable. Of course one person’s X-Games Mode is another’s walk in the park. Everything
This is a video of Rubik’s Cuber (Cubist?) Max Park beating the previous Rubik’s Cube speed solving record of 3.47 seconds (which stood for 4.5 years) with a blistering 3.13 second finish. For reference, the Rubik’s Cube I’ve had since I was 7 remains unsolved, so my personal best, which

These are two videos of British actress and accent vocal coach Sarah Valentine performing the same lines (“You’re grounded,” and “You can’t park there”) in 20 different accents, with what I assume are the appropriate accompanying faces. She’s good. So, which was your favorite? And how much would it cost
This is a video of dancer S (aka Stephane Deheselle) performing a routine and demonstrating his wildly impressive flexibility with moves that can only be described as almost unbelievable. Does he even have any joints? I have joints. And they all start aching the moment I wake up. I’M OLD.
