Built by the folks at HTX Studio, this is a video highlighting the robotic trash cans they modified to move and catch any garbage thrown in their direction. That’s cool. That way the next time you’re tossing a pink overdue bill in the trash and yell “Kobe!” you don’t embarrass

This is a video of ear, nose and throat (ENT) doctor Gustavo Gosling of Rio de Janeiro demonstrating his exoskeletal legs, which provide a seat simply by squatting. That’s handy. Especially for surgeons and people like me who hate standing. Every chance I get and I’m sitting, and, if there’s

This is a video demonstration of how a roosting bat pees — by flipping to hang upright, opening the floodgates, then giving a good shake before returning upside-down. I didn’t expect the shake, but that’s smart — I imagine there’s nothing worse than dribbling urine in your face after a

Because life, uh, finds a way, this is a video of two chimps at a zoo using a fallen tree branch to retrieve an apple floating in a pond, too far to reach by hand. That’s some solid tool usage right there. I imagine most humans presented with the same

Because all work and no play makes Jack basically me, this is a video of a man dismounting a roof by using two long straight poles and a shovel under his ass to slide back down to the ground after finishing his work up there. Very clever. Although what I
