These are a couple videos highlighting the journey of father/son team Mike and Luke Bell as they attempt to reclaim the world record for fastest quadrocopter drone after their record was snatched from them last year. There’s a lot of interesting discussion about the engineering and testing of the drone,
These are a couple videos (the second being dash-cam footage from pursuing officers) of a stolen Audi Q5 hopping the actively opening University Bridge in Seattle. It’s not cool like in the movies, it just sort of drops off to the other side. Did the driver know they weren’t going
This is a video documenting Youtuber Jake Carlini’s quest to build a wearable electric motorcycle. The finished product, which is only seen in the last 30-seconds of the 22-minute video (hint hint), actually appears more functional than I expected. It does involve the rider having to hold a plank pose
This is a 3D visualization created by Youtube channel RED SIDE featuring the evolution of the fastest wheeled vehicles from 1898 to present. It’s pretty wild to think there was an electric car that could do 39MPH in 1898, and one that could go 65MPH by 1899. Then electric vehicles
Presumably having burnt all his bridges with boat-owning friends, this is a video of Youtuber BCmtb water skiing down a drainage ditch into the ocean (previously: kayakers going down one). In his own words, which thankfully were not last ones, “Let’s hope I can make these corners.” Our collective hope
This is a sitcom-long video from Hacksmith Industries of the crew attempting to set the world record for fasted speed on a snow sled. Not a snowmobile, but a previously unpowered sled trike that’s been modded with two jet engines and manages to hit 107MPH (beating the previous record of
This is a video of tuxedo cat Gus catching a ride on his caretaker grannysday’s walker as she takes it for a spin around the room. Apparently Gus insists on a ride whenever she uses the walker, which should come to no surprise to anybody who’s ever had a cat
This is some helmet-cam footage of skier Leonhard Rombach competing in the Inferno Rennen 2025 downhill race, the longest in the world, and reaching speeds over 60MPH in the process. There’s also a brief uphill climb around 5:30. Honestly, I saw a lot of opportunities to shave some valuable seconds
