Again surrounded by a bunch of almost "religiously" brainwashed morons voting down everything that doesn't fit their little narrow minds.

#17 Who's the idiot. Any advanced society would have rules like don't interfere with the natural development of non space faring species. This doesn't mean they wouldn't keep an eye on us for whatever reason (plenty to think of if ur not a dumb-ass).

I bet heshe was born with both sex organs but heshe's parents made the wrong choice of which ones to keep.

To bad real life isn't like the movies where the good guys always win. Really getting enraged thinking about all the stuff these a-holes keep a secret just to make more money from in the first place oil (f-ing up the planet along the way).

The camera is turning the wrong way around. Seems to move away from the action. Why not keep it stationary?

#1 Do you think stopping was possible? NO!! So what were those people supposed to do? Exactly cross fingers and hope he has enough speed to get up there.

Of course there is stupidity involved as well. He almost didn't get up the first part so don't try and get up the second steeper part. Better have gone left.

The game didn't even respond to the input by to fingertips. I don't really get why everything has to be touchscreen these days. It's quite annoying to use in most cases. And has nothing more to offer than traditional input devices except that it look cooler.

Now if the windows and such actually came out of the screen in 3D whit out glasses and you could just virtually grab something / puch buttons and such and move things around and such, that would be totally awesome and even useful.

I bet they all went "Wheeeee!" in little Chickee.

Probably the best comedy show ever "Coupling". Followed by "The IT Crowd".

BTW this did happen to me but I was little back then.

I was busy trying to recognize the tune in the background (but I just can't reach it, frustrating).

If ur not 3 years old these things really should NOT blow ur mind. If so something must have gone seriously wrong when u were in school.

Without the glowing stipes, biker suit and not shot from the side this thing looks pretty lame. I like the original more too.

Where can I find the manual? Tried to build something similar before. Got the manual and all but couldn't find all the necessary parts. This one seems much simpler so much easier to find the correct parts I imagine.

It always amazes me how dumb most people are (especially the Americans waving their guns around). No perspective what so ever.

- Should someone be shot just for stealing a car?! NO!! But that is what most of you are calling out for.
- Ran over a cop!? NO!! Just pushed him back a few yards at rather low speed. Really got annoyed when the voice said life threatening situation. Such a bullshit, you would be in bigger trouble if you were to fall out of a tree. Perspective people!
- Losing ur freedom for more than 3 years for misbehaving what 30-60min. Thats not peanuts but quite a long time. No you idiots want to lock this guy up for 20 years or more. Perspective people!!

Is it me or why aren't those screens bolted to the holders? Not a very secure wall attachment. And the yanking of the cables can't be good. Remotes are easily replaced. It's also gonna get them more than 300$ on the black market.

There's always this sign "we are not responsible for shit that could go wrong"

Reversed Molotov

Can't believe no one else has thought of that as of jet.

I don't get y he was thinking that kicking the ball in with his left foot was a good idea at this point!?

They would probably stay away if people started eating them. People back in the middle ages or earlier should be so lucky that food just walks into their homes. No more failed hunting sessions.

Cool sound, kinda like the sounds in Tron (the original movie).

Funny how the train doesn't even seem to be breaking.

I bet these gators here get fed by people probably as some sort of tourist attraction. This would not have happened if they were hungry.

I thought she got hit in the arm at 1 point but that just was some big fat mole.

Isn't that supposed to make you old or does the body know the difference between the real ting and a hand?
You've heard of those (male) mice who die after being drained having sex!?

I just can't see the sirup contributing to a good taste.

Seems like the white stripe in the middle isn't very solid as he tries to hide the edges around his middle so that you don't see that it is just some fabric. So the roller shade thing #4 mentions. The hard part is getting in and out of the mechanism. Also wouldn't surprise me if there is a second and/or third person involved hidden away in the side(s) of the table, a few Japanese girls easily fit but that isn't necessary.

Don't think the world will end but humanity is another story (2012 dec 25th)

How do you explain such bite marks?

Too bad the sound quality of the vid is really bad.

It helps to have really thick skin like he seems to have (from working with his hands). Not sure about idiopathic neuropathy as he doesn't blister (nerve damage doesn't prevent blistering).

I want an army of these

I don't think they realize how hard and expensive it is to get it out again.

It's really too bad that you can't see nebulae with the naked eye.

This is boring crap but the music is ok.

It's a fun little gizmo/gadget but no more or less than that as you don't go around every day looking for new things to make into speakers. Once you found something that sounds decent ur gonna stick with it.

Well this clip is at least good for one thing. I completely spaced out watching this.

Great but next time use a decent camera instead of a crappy phone cam.

To the idiots that think this was an act: you're a bunch of idiots.

Finally there is something actually funny on snotr instead of al those rather serious clips and than the firs commenter has to bash the thing.

Big BOOOOO!! to TarasFromLviv.

This is a preview of The Sims 4.

Could have at least pun in an electric/battery powered engine so that you don't have to push this multiple ton weighing car yourself. Even if that would only get you 5mph.

Would have been better if it were one of those candid camera gags.

These robots are good motivation for people to do these things themselves because it takes forever if you let the robot do them for you.

That first girl is sooo hot/beautiful whatever comes to mind in that regard!

Kinda like Manmeet in Outsourced

At the end "Want more" -> "Click to replay"

Now try it without all the gaps in between! That would be really impressive.

Something is missing, I think its boobs.
(don't say you didn't notice)

This could come in handy for high capacity storage facilities for pod people.

Why are these sort of vids always cut of at the moment where it gets interesting?

This is very pointless pollution. Just bury it and let it rot instead of burning it in a way that doesn't even get you some electricity or whatever.

Y can't cats just play nice?

BTW that's an ugly dog!

Now try driving of again, now that would be really something.

So I guess the point is to confuse future archaeologists?

Next time all the people that did respond won't anymore. Just because it'll probably one of these stupid "experiments" or rather deceptions. Who wants to be a guinea pig?

Take the beer, at least that might give u a buzz, no way she would give u a second look if u were to give her the beer.

VHS tape? Really?

BTW bleh doggy saliva everywhere.

What a bunch of nonsense, this looks like an uncle or something dealing with a niece that ran away.

Why bother and go trough the hassle if there's like only 1 in a 100 chance of it actually being something real. There probably is a bigger chance of getting on TV this way than actually come across a real situation like this.

If it was a kidnapping like in the movies stay away or ur gonna get shot. Call 911 or something if u want. But than u face possible embarrassment if someone beet you to the punch (the second "First" effect).

So they're just bombing everyone with x-ray radiation!?

Manipulation om the scans!?

Seems to be made for the next gen Americans looking at the dummy proof buttons to operate.

If that wasn't bad enough, it also runs on windows!

Not perfect but hey it ur out of fabric try this

The only reason crApple products are successful is because they have a catchy name + a lot of marketing.

Who didn't see that coming?

A bit too impossible that's not cool.

Some of those could use another extra roll.

I just heard that 85% of iPad users don't even take it out of the house. Great mobile device isn't it!?

BTW this could have been done with any screen and should actually be done with paper/plastic alone otherwise it defeat the purpose.

#11
You can also get cancer after bumping your leg into something too. Comeon lets keep things in perspective ok, don't nag about stuff that has a chance of happening like 1 in a ... (fill in large number).

I'm still waiting for the invention that can upload information directly into our brain like it is done in movies like "Battlefield Earth" and "Outlander".

Do you know why it's dark inside? Well they pushed the button ("no preassure.. BOOM!" :p

#6
Eventual other problems caused by windmills can't be as bad as global warming. Also you're only looking at windmills. If for instance all houses would have solar panels they would be set for life and beyond (not even talking about using the full surface of the roof).

#(removed comment)
To much of anything is always bad, even money (very corrupting).

#18
The ozone problem had little to do with our CO2 emissions. Almost completely a different issue. It's all about balance. See comment above.

#23
Cars are also a relative small part of the global warming issue (but would also be nice not to have smog hanging around cities and such). But you do have a point. Most of these sort of problems can be tracked back to the human overpopulation of the planet.

#(removed comment)
Aren't we already killing and eating them!?

Pay-of for not eating the ducks feet.

Not really snotr material this vid.

I've / We've seen much better projected shit on buildings (here on snotr). But traditionally its in line with museums. Boring as hell!

That cat must have been a boxer in a past life.

What no ringtone to increase dick size?!

Never be without a big strong and hard sniper rifle :p

They are a real problem in Belgium right now because they didn't recognize the dangers of these critters early on.

Solving 1/10th of the problem isn't solving anything at all. Governments should just start making hydrogen with solar, wind and water power. Put up windmills, solar panels and turbines next to rivers and so on... (Just do it already!!) Hydrogen can be stored so also when there isn't a big demand for energy no reason to stop collecting. Now they disable lots of windmills a lot of the time, same for other clean sources for electricity.

Please don't come knocking with financial crap. Germany was broke during WW2 but still lots of weapons were produced anyways.

Not that hard to figure out how it's done. Still the skill to do these tricks deserves some consideration. If only it hadn't been done a million times before by a million other people.

Not another one of these ridiculous "social experiments". Again no scientific value at all. Just plain old simple and cheap entertainment.

You really don't need to capture this on tape. Anyone with half a brain will now the outcome.

Unbelievable no one is putting the term "social experiment" between quotes. Again this is such an over the top FAKE!!! situation. Pure end simple entertainment no real scientific value what so ever.

By the way the "dressed down" factor is probably a much bigger issue than the skin color. As the saying goes "clothes makes the man".
Nothing wrong with that, if the meat looks rotten it probably is. Just the way it/we work/s. See/hear/smell/touch/taste -> evaluate/compute (this could be called judge) -> act/react.

#19

Come on an igloo as a capital building!! Common sense will tell you that ain't right. Especially if you take into consideration some basic structural impossibilities and the weather (changes in temperature will at least cause cracks in ice). All that makes it at least very unlikely. And then we didn't even look at people that are supposed to work there.

The problem is more that Americans often just believe almost anything they're told by serous sounding people.
Not that the ones in power (the people that bought the US) would want it any other way. People who are educated to thing for themselves are much harder to control.

Still waiting form him to say "Why don't I just give you a bunch of copies of the show".

Always fun these discussions.

First of all I hate those shows where they fake a situation. A real gay couple wouldn't act that way 9 out of 10 times or more. Calling such entertainment a social experiment is just plane wrong.

Second to most people this sort of behavior is kinda like as disgusting as walking in on your parents having sex.
Can't blame anyone that has a problem with such a thing. Should you shut up and just let it be? That may be the most interesting question here. Personally I rather see this sort of thing nipped in the but before it gets to be a regular thing. So applaud the people who have the guts to say something about it even if it isn't exactly politically correct.

(a lot of things that are politically correct are actually wrong)

Now about gays in general. Don't have anything against gay people living their lives (within reason) but I also don't need them to rub it in my face. Especially in public environments. Don't like second hand smoke either.
Genetically speaking it's a simple defect that also happens in "nature". The difference between us and animals is that a gay animal probably doesn't transmit his genes so the bad gene dies of right there and then.
This is of course different with people. Besides gay people living straight lives, wife and kids. Nowadays gay people, can simply go to a sperm bank or use a surrogate mother and other such things (and I'm not even going into social wrongness of raising a kid this way). This does concern me along with things like organ transplantation cases where people don't die where they should have died along the lines of survival of the fittest.
They all contribute to our genetic degradation. People in the western world already have relative bad immune systems. People with allergies have increased exponentially the last few decades. The male sperm count is down all over the world. And so on.

Why are these kids always called Savanah?

Imagine showing this to someone out of the middle ages or even earlier.

Must be a warning that we shouldn't fuck up our planet.

#5 Pasted together!
- No shadow behind the second guy.
- The middle couch cushion is darker on the left line divides them.

So easy to see. Hard to believe it took like 15 comments to get that cleared up.

Sad that it's tue!

Someone should give him a BMX.

How does this work I wonder. Where does the light come from for instance?

Would be kinda toxic if u were to do that for real.

Y don't they call it american rugby?

Funny how the woman is constantly calling him retard! Especially the first few seconds where he corrects her but she's not listening :p

No eye contact what so ever. Kinda rude even if he's threatening her.

People still doing this?!

He missed 1 (2:02).

What, no cool white light on the end of the tunnel story?

Same here didn't know u were allowed to bounce the ball at ur own half.

I hope the car he climbed on was his own. Denting a car like that just for a "prank" is just sad.

They should put big flashing lights around the sign!

Great keep alive the degenerates. That's just wrong in so many ways and just because mommy wants her baby.

Not even a real interview with the guy, he can't be happy, in and out hospitals ur whole life.

Why is this guy filming his grandpa?

Wouldn't it be easier to use bio degradable plastics instead of going trough the hassle of converting it into oil (and then burning it). Or just stop using so much plastic for everything. I hate it how chocolate is also wrapped in plastic these days and all the plastic bottles, drinks in glass bottles tastes much better.

Let us use solar, wind and so on for making hydrogen from water. That's the best route to take.
- It burns back into water.
- It can be stored so for instance windmills don't have to be turned of at times when there is an over production of electricity.
- You can use it to generate electricity so electric cars that can be filled up just as fast as gas powered cars and don't need ridiculous amounts of battery packs which are very polluting themselves + have a rather short life span.
- There is more than plenty of it. We could even use Pluto as a source in the future.
- Etc..

Why dit he get up looked like he supposedly saw something like a spider, SISSY!!

Wow must be rerun day or something this is like the fifth clip almost on a row of something we've already seen before on snotr. Going from new to less new.

Warts are usually contagious (not very but still). Lets hope his kids don't get infected.

So they never get to go outside I'd imagine. That's kinda sad for the cats.

There is to little info on the exact situation and low vid quality as well. So stop blaming 1 or the other. They both were at fault and they seem to agree to to that.

The biggest problem is cities like this is that there are virtually no bicycle facilities so they have to go where they don't really belong. If there were there would probably be an exception for cyclists on the one way rule.

Cool except for the waste of rubber.

Lame / cliché, old person doing something "unexpected".

Amasing that he still has most of his skin.

Funny how they didn't think of keyboards but rather writing on a pad. Very analog thinking btw.

You usually have to be in the car to survive a car crash!!

"Facing charges for wasting your tax dollars!"
Let's do that with the Bushes of the world.

A good way to piss off telemarketers is to only answer yes and no (mostly no). It usually really throws them of.

Would have been cool if the shadows were of some cool symbols not that boring religulous crap.

One of the most dissapointing movies I've ever seen. Plot holes as big as the grand canyon.

They all ruined their ankles doing this sort of thing just like ballerina's and such.

We could also start flying

Would like to see something like this although I wouldn't want to see any kind of tracking system embedded.
They don't talk about cost eighter. The leds alone in that amount start to get quite expensive let alone solar panels.
Glass can be really strong especially if you take air out of the equation but I wonder if it still holds with traffic on it day in day out. And if it breaks how will it affect the electronics?
Bottom-line I think there are better surfaces to use than roads.

Good point this vid makes. But the self preservation aspect is something to think about.

What's the point? One could make such a clip anywhere in the world.

Same effect if you use N2O (laughing gas). That stuff comes with a nice buzz.

How boring is that those so called "up skirts"?!

Crap crap crap these washing machine vids.

Didn't see that coming, unexpected humor is the best kind there is.

That's fun with a price tag.

I rather have a robot body that doesn't require this workout crap.

@#1,
There's nothing wrong with grinding and mixing it all together (trowint it away would be rally bad) but adding the conservatives and stuff is really bad. So don't be so quick to judge. Would you eat a caterpillar? You ask a tribe member who knows this as a delicatessen. Yes he says. That's sick you reply!

Narrow minded nothing else.

BTW what if it wasn't a down syndrome person. Are you allowed to complain? The duality of things on the one hand were supposed to treat them the same way as regular people but at the same time we're supposed to give them special treatment?

I hate being politically correct. That's so fake.

This is so stupid protecting/idealizing those degenerate albino squirrels. I feel for the cats and dogs that con't even roam about freely.

Got exactly what he deserves. Fishing for "sports" is just as bad as bullfighting.

Can't believe all the people here NOT commenting on how wrong this is.

This is what happens when you let evil sperits in

That doesn't sound like a very tasty pancake!

What a bunch of racist remarks!! But because its about white men it's OK??

Sand-art? More like flour-art.

Wow this was boring, thought there was going to be something cool somewhere in the vid having read the sub title.

Real men don't use crApple crap.

Yo Jammin'. Wonder when this video was shot as there are only tunes from the 80's being played.

The only use I can think of for this is in a clothing store as a gimmick. Overlaying some clothes on your mirror image. But as a shopkeeper I rather regular mirrors and spend the money somewhere else.

Ridiculous we already have the hydrogen cell technology, no need to put batteries in a car as pwr source. And if you really want something in the middle first use methanol powered hydrogen cells first.

One step closer to actual sonic showers as seen in star trek.

Not that impressive, I had to rewind to see what all the fuss was about.

Now that's a RC flying object!!!

I still rather have a new cloned leg

Wonder if they are using air filled tires? Especially when there are 10 people on 1 bike.

Well this must prove that driving tests here western EU are over the top and just a way of getting ur money.

I thought it was really by hand. But he is simply using an wheel. Electric powered at that. Now the lines at the end were reasonable impressive, 1 stroke no overlaps at least not that we could see.

Wonder who's in the suit.

Gattaca, piano player!!

This is such an old trick. Just seen a rerun of some show where she, the presenter had to learn the same trick in an afternoon to take on the role of the girl in the cage at a Hans Klok show in Vegas.

(looked it up "try before you die" epi 3 2007)

You know the riddle:

First it walks on 4 legs then on 2 and later on 3. What is this?

Kinda inclines the degeneration at the end. That clearly is also true for the mental aspect. Behaving like small children, these two.

Then to think a few hundred years back people all build their own homes only bigger with lots of farmland around them.
Kinda sad to see how people are forced to live tiny to get away from mortgages etc.

Worst thing is they do this just for sports. How would you like it to have a hook jammed up your jaw and then having it removed like this wiggling about. He should have blead to death.

Seems to me like it's a Magpie (those are the ones that go for shiny things, like in the fairy-tales). Just can't really see the upper side of the wings. Seems a bit small for a raven for as far that's quantifiable.

One thing is for sure, it's a bird from the crow family. Or rather Corvidae as wiki calls the branch.

I bet there hav been some blue if not broken fingers involves in the past.

BTW no idea what mochi is. Would have been nice to see the actual result, how it's served.

To bad the guy didn't tel the woman to get out and let him do it. Just like that other clip.

I thought they were gonna accidentally push the entire wall to the street. This is kinda stupid knowing there isn't enough space for the whole wall to collapse towards the machine.

That only works if the maniac drives nicely into it. BTW Only in America. That sort of stopping measures would never be allowed in Europe and other relative sane parts of the world.

At the end "AHH, I'm beat!/I can't do it anymore!.. I'm tired!.. I'm beat!".
HAHA!!

Unbelievable all the dumb people here. Yes you saying that this parent is stupid for letting something like this happen. Like it couldn't happen to you!!?? Your attention can't drift of for a few seconds especially during routine acts?

- Accidents happen.
- The strawler is at a reasonable distance from the edge.
- It happens in 3 seconds.
- The ground shouldn't slope towards the edge.
- Baby was trying to get out.

Now tell me again why the parent is so stupid? It's simply a set of circumstances in which accidents are more prone to happen.
The only thing that could have been done better by the paren was not to point the strawler towards the train/edge.

A judge shouldn't get so emotional. I don't know the rest of the story but I see plenty things wrong with how she is behaving like a little kid, walking away angry to top it of.

Top Gear could/should do something with this.

Looks quite useful. Only braking could be a issue.

I wonder how long before it sprung a leak?

Bike rider? More like a moped rider.

Cool real movie!

Funny pis in the eye beetle (translated).

That's how the cookie crumbles

Something like that instead of regular wheels on a car could be very useful (parallel parking in a jippy).

This is being developed for spying purposes (think big brother but not so hidden).

He clearly does not know how to drive a bike. 2 Feet on the ground HAHA.

I just wish the bull did more than just pierce his tong. Horn trough the heart for instance.

BTW I hate the way they always try to justify the bullfighting (they have better life than regular bulls bla bla).

Seems to me like the parent caught the kid in the way he holds the kid after.

Sort of a particle accelerator

To the owner: Don't you get it already TOO FAT NO MORE FOOD!!!

I have to agree with 1/3 of the jury. Mostly waving arms and legs around with a static torso. The mask at the back of his head was a nice gimmick though.

I dare to say that the Melbourne Shuffle looks cooler.

#13
No it does not insult religious people, it just points out some facts.

#15
You should read what etheism really is. You are the one insulting here.
Personally it's clear to me that religion is just a very old way of mind-control.

#(removed comment)
Sigh, don't try to push religion to people who have their eyes open.

#20
I understand someone on death row to be religious but the rest of us should just accept that we just don't know if and if so what there might be after death. Just live instead of preparing for death.

#21
You clearly have no idea how big the universe is and how many galaxies, stars and planets there are. Even if the chance seems very small that we came to be it still is a very big number.

#24
No it does not. It's like the movie "The Number 23". If you want to see things a certain way you will see it that way.
BTW I can't believe you actually linked to that ridiculous clip of nonsense.

#25
Faith in what?
(Faith: Confident belief in the truth, value, or trustworthiness of a person, idea, or thing.)

Works great if you only have one eye. For the rest of us it doesn't work that great in reality.

Could work, the numbers aren't that unbelievable. But you should know that oil doesn't keep floating, after a while it starts sinking to the bottom of the sea.

Helmets ridiculous. Most of the time ur only riding between 6 and 13mph (10 and 20km/h).

#8
"Hi all my name is Chewbacca"?

Bad impression though.

Isn't this a bit to educational for snotr?

There are a few rich people close to half a trillion. At least for as far as we know, I heat those oil sheiks have gold like the paper stacks of money in this clip (referring to the man is dot one).

"Let's go outside!"
Why were they walking?

What are you gonna use this thing for? It has no real practical purpose. Also they touch the ground quite often.

I'm still waiting for the punchline!
(as in him making apparent he got bored by these questions)

On the + side most if not as good as all buyers don't know there's still data to be retrieved and or have no interest in doing so.

Mom or dad must have been a meerkat.

Nice seatwarmer

The guys in suits waving no... HAHA

Why would you make fun of such a pretty girl?

I bet they're trying to tell us something.

To bad they didn't have this back then...
Was rather annoying to have to wait several hours to be able to play with the battery powered car for like 30min.

Wonder if they also can supply a hydrogen extraction kit (from tap water)? Where else are you gonna get ur Hydrogen?

To be honest I rather have a car that can't steer itself. Imagine what a hacker can do see for instance i believe it was that movie called "After the Sunset".

Smell my f... uhm horn!

Greed is the cause of ridiculous things like bottled regular water (to call it regular is important because cola, 7up, sprite and what not is also bottled water but can't be compared to tap water). So lets go to the source and put up some rules that one is not allowed to strive for profit. Anything above a certain profit margin should be collected and returned to where it came from in the first place. This will make everyone much more equal and put things into balance instead of this yo-yo effec we now know in economy.

Most old people get lazy. Moving as little as possible (stand up assists, carts to replace walking etc..). If they didn't almost any granny would be able to do the things she does. Also 76 years of callus build up helps with the standing on nails thing.

She didn't one day ah whats the point my life is as good as over anyhow.

Wow she should really be ashamed, she's a real pussy. I would have already grabbed the cat by its neck.

It's just a little joke, don't over admire regular stuff people.

this is stupid.

@PrisonJam
You forgot to mention very boring.

About the vid:
OH NO NOT ANOTHER ONE OF THESE!!!

What's the wall made of? Sounds like wood. Seems like the stome is just decoration.

You still have to walk from corner to corner to get the corners done. Also a remote kill-switch would be useful.

Aparently this is new to them, seen this act way back when. He's clearly keeping the good stuf for another show. Seen him regurgitate dry sugar, seen him eat a light-bulb (with chewing and all), nailing a nail up his nose but thats something many people can do.

Armband gizmo:
- Slides down.
- Uncomfortable especially in it's current form.
- Projection to weak during the day.
- Seems rather unresponsive.
- Hair can be a major pain.
- Can't really use the arm its projected on.
- You have to keep steady, especially a problem for longer duration.
- Probably more...

This isn't going to get on the market. There will probably be something similar possible with OLED technology only smaller like a sleeve that is also a screen, touch sensitive. Or a step further a tattooed screen that can hook op to devices wirelessly. Powered by body heat.

If everyone didn't know the police as those bad guys who know only to write tickets and occasionally act overly violent against often innocent people, there maybe would be more people that actually want to contact the police for something, now its more like keep as far away from them as possible, so don't get involved in anything related to them.

Shouldn't have given her the pass to the email account.

Little evil creatures. They don't even have the decency to kill before eating.

Must be a really old vacuum.

Looks great on camera but in real life you have stereo vision.

Don't like the bragging at the end about all the publicity generated!

Wow low tech for a movie about new media!

Would be fun to go back in time with this gizmo and freak out the people back then.

I bet the driver hit the brakes on purpose seeing those bikers coming in the distance.

It's just sad to hear that the first batch is already sold out, long live the sheep (sarcasm)!

One would almost think this is a April's fool joke, crApple pulls to get other companies to actually develop such crappy device.

The fat guy coming down Ha Ha!

Wat a bunch of idiots here. I'm talking about the ones yelling fake, it's not. As #14 pointed out she was probably standing somewhere inside a theater corridor.

Kinda disrespectful to the goat, at least leaving the head on like that.

Actually they didn't do much more than driving in a strait line.

If it could go higher and the wings would be retractable it could have serious future potential. One big problem the days with new things like flying. To much safety crap to have to deal with.

@LB187
You're comparing knowing what the lets say the north bridge of a pc is vs what a browser is. Or in car terms knowing what a thrush bearing is vs what a wheel is.

The sad thing is that all those noobs are fucking it up for the rest of us who know what we are doing. All the crap unnecessary safety features in OS'es for instance. The use of laptops (throw away product, bound by manufacturer of the whole thing) at home instead of desktops. All the nagging about leaks here and there that wouldn't be a problem unless an idiot is working with the computer. Buying (expensive) crApple products instead of actually good products. And so on... And so on...

This is what I like to see people getting away from the cops.

WHY!!!?? WHY!!!?? WHY!!!??

As if, turning of the game machine brings real life friends to the doorstep!? It just doesn't work that way. It also should have said all the boring things you could have done in the time it took gaming.

Don't get me wrong I do get and even appreciate the message of not letting games consume your whole life but turning the games of doesn't automatically give you the ambition/energy to do "great" things.

BTW I'm not much of a gamer but do spend to much time watching movies and such, if I didn't I would probably be staring in the distance.

Google the big privacy trasher!!

Just sad!!

Guess I win, didn't turn!

Well that cat certainly has earned his place around the house.

Whoa what a lot of naive dumb people posting here. Talking about the brainwashed ones that can't believe in conspiracies and such. You know the ones plussing the rather narrow minded remarks.

Must be a diesel.

#7 Agree they forgot to tell tehm to SEED!!! Nicely pu btw "hit and run".

#8 The piratebay has way bigger balls than mininova so they'll stay around but the question is really how long can you access is without running it trough a proxy or something.

Actually laughed with this one so thumbs up, great gag.

Should have puked her out again.

To bad there isn't any sound. I bet at 0:40 the car/van stalled.

Prolly oversaw the car overtaking him.

Just can't look at that ugly face.

I don't get the Obama bashing lately magnified by the so called news broadcasting networks. Bush was the one making it possible to search homes without a warrant and making it possible to be held indefinitely without being charged of anything you just have to be a suspect of terrorism.

Wonder if the machine has a cleaning cycle?

Wonder if that could work with other kinds of fish as well?

Serves him right. Fishing as a sport instead of for a meal is ridiculous. Bird got pissed of when he threw out a perfectly good fish, hooked for nothing.

That annoying guy is so gay, that's annoying.

#13 Would you want to go near that guy? Or rather come by later with a bag of sand to cover up the mess

#20 It only inspires people not to make up their own mind and go with the herd. Often comments voted down are just less popular/political correct. That doesn't make them less valid.

#(removed comment) Paying for toilet use is usually accompanied by some attendant keeping things clean. But it should be optional. Don't put the us up on a pedestal. It's way more idiotic to pay all kinds of tips for the most mondain things.

Way to many bleeps, such things should not be censured.

Crap quality can't even see the puck. Even the slow-motion in a frame by frame has holes. Besides that what's so amazing about the goal, these sort of things happen all the time, not even a skill thing.

You can see him thinking ah shit what to say now, was planning to say something like I can't do it bla bla.

#17 It's not the pad its the i in front of it.

Ridiculous vid. Again with the wrong subtitles, just stupid if you can understand German.

Jip almost as bad as what happened in Haiti

Normally you have to click in cd's not just drop them in like the monkey did.

Normally you have to click in cd's not just drop them in like the monkey did.

A few idiots ruin it for the rest of us ffing asses.

Austin powers would be saying a lot of "mole" right about now

Too bad the Japanese are killing the creatures by the 10's of thousands a year.

It also isn't gonna work on 2 wheeled vehicles at least not in its current form.

What's that windshield made of? Looks more bent than broken.

Wonder what the parents look like?

What's up with all the old funnies home video reruns here on snotr?!

Would have been better if it was not done so clicé. France/Paris, the music (terrible btw) and the joke itself.

Mildly amusing.

I don't really like to stereotype groups of people but this seems to fit the stupid label people tend to put on Belgians.

Yes he does it quite inventively but the question rises why. Instead of making it hard on himself just leave the car outside or get at least a bigger door to get out of the car. Also possible to get an automated ramp which pulls the car into the garage after parking on top of it. And so on...

Funny as hell!! (no text between the lines intended)

I know most of you agree that slow-mo and time-laps is boring once you have seen it a few times. So same goes here boring for most. Worst ting is that it's not even high speed camera footage but than again most of the clips would have simply seemed to stand still.

That's a cool cat

There are tons of little experiments you can do with surface tension. Just look 'em up. I like the one with the little boat being propelled by a drop of soap.

Look how everyone at the end couldn't wait to get up and leave. These cutouts must have been the only fun parts of the show.

I usually don't really approve of this sort of driving but the F the police thing was beautiful.

That guy must have been a real donkey's ass in his previous life (talking about the donkey).

This sort of news broadcasting is just a tad to religious for me. Who cares about some rich asses and their damages? Rather look at the real people.

BTW if you donate check where the money goes before you do so. A lot of these so called good causes keep than 40% in their own pocket. Then there is the money that does go to the country(s.) That also disappears into the wrong pockets more than most people realize.

This is a great ringtone for ur phone!

The guy in the vid probably noticed the same thing just didn't act on it like the dog did. Pretty lame glorifying the dog's "extra sensory abilities".

(the guy starts moving his chair back at the same moment he dog starts taking of)

I wonder how long you can keep it running before it gets overheated, it is after all concealed area.

This video is terrorism.

What's the point? Creating nucrear fusion reactors?

Only in these stupistitious countries.

Well lets go by boat now that they made air travel so ridiculous. This is just a step to far and also so unnecessary.

BTW good point #8.

Also heard of letting a computer decide if the picture contains something dangerous (not sure if that's also the case for the us). But you must be really gullible to believe such things.

To bad the people here aren't so stupistisious.

Would be fun to see public reactions to these looks.

If I want to watch some boring news clips I'll flip on a TV, why on snotr?!

I'm sorry but this sort of thing is really boring to me. I just don't get one would even go to watch this sort of thing. Basically it's nothing more than driving up a ramp at the right speed (which is easily calculated).
Maybe fun to do but not to watch. Especially if the jumt isn't over something real like a ravine.

What a waste.

Dumb police guy probably caused the crash by creating some hazardes situation behind the camera. Why isn't he going after the crashed car? Aren't cops supposed to help in situations like that?

Nice they knew it was gonna happen so they started filming, should have put up a sign or something.

Was this really news worthy. Only idiots buy Crapple products.

I would have faked being hurt to freak him out.

Read this for all of ya who don't know shit about the holiday.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sinterklaas

It's an interesting idea but I wouldn't want one as shown.

Some problems that come to mind.
- Weight (to heavy).
- No retractable sunscreen/visor as is mostly standard these days and I wouldn't want to go without such feature.
- No system helmet version possible.
- Already mentioned many times the blinding effects at night.
- Expensive, I hate btw that because it adds to safety it's suppose to be a reasonable price.

Dropping your gun that's bad.

Ridiculous that a spaceship suddenly would start to fall if pwr goes down.

Wow that's really gonna help the world's energy problems. Really sad to see people with no real skills being idolized so much these days.

Oh shit all this jumping around made me thirsty!

Wouldn't want to be his elbows. See how he uses them as brakes (to the bone).

They also fed all kinds of crap during the 9-11 thing. I can only thing how dumb or brainwashed are those people? The worst thing is that people who see trough it also see the "bad apples" (btw this is the expression by which Apple got it's name)get away with it.

Daredevil bird!

After a while the chair gets loud and squeaky!

Cat: "Mesmerizing!!"

I bet that's one of those guy's that always wins all sorts of things.

It's a complot I tel ya!!

I doubt this is actually a mouse. Seem a bit big for most mouse species.

When can I get a surrogate body for for real?

Exactly #8

Must have been a coke brewed with the original recipe (u know with actual coke as an ingredient).

I used to love it but now a days it tastes like old spit.

Pre-baked pancakes just makes no sense.

His name is Gay!

Yeah it's not that clearly spoken so subs could have been nice. Also I wonder how much was lost in the translation. Can you actually quote someone in a different language? Not really.

Just don't forget to kill the fire before the lighter fluid is all burned up.

That happens when we take all their food away.

All in the name of science

They r all gonna get cancer inhaling all that rubber smoke!!

Wouldn't mind seeing all of the clips in full.

Guess where the invention of the wheel came from!!?

Looks like a children's pop-up booklet to me. Guess he has a really small dick or something.

Sodeju!!

Daredevil car driver!

What's the point of this sort of concept laptop? The screen may be possible but I don't see how enough computing power + cooling is gonna be fitted inside any time soon. By then this concept will be outdated to say the least. Also see problems using touch screen tech at the joints. Also the durability seems limited rolling up and unrolling such device.

Only downhill, no gears.

Well guy's the t-shirt is supposed to have turned black by the explosion. Fake and all but I must say he does a decent job of acting hurt

So why exactly where they fighting?

Thanks #7, #8 and #(removed comment)

Same question as #1?

Great way making fun of the krap called rap.

#9 Quit bullsh-itting. If it were a chimpanzee or some other monkey of similar size or bigger you would have a point but this little critter. Cat size people.

I would probably have to hold back, wouldn't be nice to (accidentally) seriously hurt the monkey. But I would hae pushed the little guy? back a bit after his firs nibble.

Seems fun to do but imagine all the boredom.

#11, Don't think it was that expensive at least not more expensive than going on a luxurious holiday for a few weeks. So easily done if you have some savings.

Too bad the music is so lame.

#21, I guess #7 is referring to self preservation as part of Darwin's law of evolution. Plenty of hits if you google Darwin + Law.

Also don't dismiss #3 on a technicality. Plenty of similarities between playing with your life this way or that way.

Almost seems like you mean your comment starting #20... Maybe you should have made it clear you were being sarcastic?

First they run faster than cars and then they move to slow to catch some "ninja" guy on foot?

Where are the grown-ups?

That just makes no sense even in a senseless universe

I bet ya when you could really freeze time bullet trails wouldn't look like that if you could see them at all to begin with.

When will there be a manned balloon expedition?

Had to do similar stuff to get my motorcycle driving license.

Why does everyone assume the cat is a she?

I've heard about all the commotion but hadn't seen the actual clip jet. I can only say "Is that all?".

I don't get it why so many people are blaming the car driver. Stopping in the middle of a motorway is stupid/dumb and also forbidden.
Then there is the spot where he stops. Right at a spot where people expect movement so another stupid point.
Then there is the distance between the traffic and the stupid cop, a max of 3 seconds in which the traffic has to react. Again a stupid point.

Apparently this is one of those "famous" clips like the drugged kid, they even got on some talk-show or something.

Has anyone else noticed the big difference in size of the those kids's heads? Especially in the interview, in the earlier mentioned talk-show.

Are there sections?

Love the tunes

Wow first time people getting thumbs up for saying the vid sucks.

Too bad the title gives away the punchline.

It's actually ridiculous that they make you pick up your dog's poop these days. Are we not paying enough taxes already. City cleaning should take care of this sort of thing (more green/sand in cities would help to). Somehow this never was a problem when horses roamed the streets.

Love scare pranks!!

Despicable putting babies in a financial conscious light. That's where the grab culture starts.

Kinda dumb not to drive a little more forwards every time. I think she even bumped the bumper of the car behind her a few times.

Of course reverse parallel parking would have been the most efficient way to get the car in there. But that's a given.

Looks like a boring commercial to me.

Classic.

It doesn't feel right to power such gun by (chemical) explosion. If they would have used some sort of air pressure spring system it would have been way more impressive. We already know that explosions behind a barrel can propel bullets so why not some gas.

In 2006 - the latest year for which figures are available - more than 100,000 people died in India, and an estimated 2,000,000 were seriously injured.

#20 The Dutch r known for their down to earth thinking so that makes for a lot of atheists.

To all the lamo's who cry about this not being funny, just crawl back under your rock. This is a wink towards the unnecessary exhausts you see in the tuning scene.

Too bad such a coupon system won't fly over here. The small print prevents it like not icw products on sale and no entirely free stuff with coupons.

It's a pretty funny bird but enough already with all the MJ crap.

What a waste of paper and ink.

This was decent to bad it was a cliffhanger.

After reading the title I was already laughing.

I'm amazed none of the wheels snapped off. Now that I think was the biggest risk. Imagine what could happen if 1 of the wheels snapped of and the metal corner anchored into the read. He would have been launched.
But more risk, more fun.

About the no brakes comments, no wheels at the back so he's constantly braking.

The car may be nice (generic if you ask me) but the commercial is quite lame and done b4 at least several times.

Wow badly trained dogs.

It's just an owl!

Wrong!!!

This has little to do with speeding but more to do with not paying attention while driving.

1. Looking at a girl.
2. Simply not paying attention straight road.
3. Some idiot parked in/around a corner.
4. Crossing without looking.
5. Unclear what exactly happened but it advertises dumb bad luck.
6. Stupid reaction to an animal crossing somewhere where you can expect animals crossing.
7. Rest of it macho crap, I give 'm that.

So always think 3 steps ahead and remember shit happens.

"Are you to fat to fit in an airplane?! No worry's with Comfort Wipe you're safe (XXL version coming soon)."

I wonder if and what effect is has on people?

Nifty but I don't see how this is gonna help save the environment. The box still gets thrown away.

@#1 He actually said "ik doe 't" not "do it" (wich means "I'm doing it".

Nice touch on the back.

Totally fake, wouldn't even have scratched the navigational shields if it was real

This is one of the stupidest shows out there. Worse thing it's not that farfedged.

That flew by fast.

Would be quite cool suck mixture of movies. I can imagine lots more cool mixtures, for instance instead of horses coming over the hill in lotr have some tanks roll over.

What have we learned? Don't drive your bike on the sidewalk.

Why is this on snotr?

I like those binary clocks. Pretty easy to learn that's something different.

Seems to me that this is a animation of analog clocks. So how analog is this anywayz?

Cool, only there isn't a real good led projector available jet so that seemt to me like something that has to be improved significantly first. Unless of course the brain implant becomes something viable.

This is not funny!!

#6 U get my thumbs up.

Did u guys see the sign? Maybe there is a ticket checkpoint or something entering the balcony. So maybe this is just a smart way to sneak in for the next show or whatever.

Would have made sense if the ugly woman was sitting behind the desk.

To bad the last tip was so bad. The nr 1 mistake girls can make deny sex.

Damn bugs. The one thing I hate most about the summer. Now they're stealing as well.

I wonder what the climate is like there. Otherwise no real reason to be scared if you can simply open up a few windows. Even if you can't there must be a lot of water running to get enough gas into the house to get an explosive mix.

The guy said payback for the nutshots. That's getting hit in the balls. This revenge sees kinda mellow in comparison.

I think there is a good chance she was drunk, anorexic or just plane nervous. BTW once someone is down because of fainting there isn't much you can do so if you missed the chance of catching her...
So think before you comment on the fat guy.

I wonder if it's an automated process changing colors? U know like blinking is automated as well but can be consciously controlled.

How sad rich people wasting money like this. Kinda makes me mad. Could have gone into something useful like fossil fuel alternatives.

How come she can lift the compact car package? Where does the mass go?

Yeah I've seen this on dutch tv aswell.

Hates the snow? She's loving it.

Ahw, freeze frame at 38 sec.

Is anyone else wondering if she's gay? You know the short hair, tomboy attitude, rapping about eating pussy and having her dick sucked. I know it's a spoof but still.

Agree with nr 1.

I found the AI surprisingly decent in the game (but I'm a pc player so... ya know that's always better).

They wont see us if we do not move.

That would have saved me a lot of time if it just had been here sooner.

How old r u guys not getting the weighted tires?
You all would probably believe that bees aerodynamically speaking should not be able to fly eighter.

Fantastic!!

He didn't even hit the winning ball.

I didn't really notice that he was working the flute aswell at least in the beginning. It's an interesting combo.

That yellow/orange thing in the beginning. That's us a few 100-thousend years ago

Funny though I would have shot him to shut him up. Also was expecting something like his head being blown up near the end (exaggerated sniper shot).

Amazing makes fictional shape-shifting immediately more plausible.

#6 What are you suggesting? I hope not some sort of god like intervention? And yes I do believe its random. Have you ever heard of the ghost in the machine? Same randomness.

("There have always been ghosts in the machine . . . random segments of code that have grouped together to form unexpected protocols..."

I wish they pointed out the parts they were talking about. Had to watch twice to reasonably get the workings of those eyes.

To bad we don't get "NOS" at the dentist. They just love syringes over here. Ofcourse it could have been the kid's size what caused the effect.

Who decided that fuck is a curse word? The meaning of the word has noting to do with curses.

The way they are talking suggests it's a set-up. What kid would say I'm gonna... and take a few steps back. I bet that if the quality of the video was better you could see some sort of leach around his paw.

Boring did this trick back when I was like 10 or something. It's just math.

Well the van was on his property, was it not?

You would expect lcd to be more of a thing for transparent displays as they need a backlight. Would be cool though to use as a helmet- or carscreen. But expensive if it gets broken. so maybe projection would be more usable.

Isn't there a way to make man immune? Maybe a little registry tweak of the genes

They seem good points. But the worls is going a lot faster these days so time is more precious. With other words efficiency is becoming more and more important. So I have to disagree with the spoiled statement.

A good comparison would be that if you read a paper nowadays you get more info fed to you than a man in the middle ages got in his whole lifetime. Similar comparisons can me made comparing now and 30 years ago.

For the people still thinking lightspeed is fast. It would take 4 years to get to the nearest star at lightspeed or near lightspeed. Although you wouldn't age much at those speeds back on earth time passes a lot faster.

Snap!!

Maybe they should try kissing that frog. It may be a princess who had a bad run in with a witch

BTW agree with the girl saying its sad for the frog.

Oe lala @10 sec

It's a monster truck with regular wheels attached. Those tires are very expensive so I can immagine you don't want to waste them driving regularly. Or they were picking them new tires up.

@#8, That doesn't matter. The IR signal will probably bounce trough the entire room.

I was thinking Sony? Don't they mean Apple and their iCrap?

This trailer is also available in 3D (Anaglyph).

Guess they should lower the min age for those toys

I think it would be more dangerous at 6ft. At that distance the bullet is still speeding up. There also must be metal plates inside the jacket otherwise it really would have hurt.

All this slowmotion stuff is getting really old.

Is this a parody on a parody or something? I don't get it.

I really wouldn't mind if the news readers would read the news with personal input. Especially when there is news that requires remarks like "This is really rediculous, what are those crazies thinking at parliament?" instead of acting indifferent.

Think the dog has an itch and is to preoccupied with his treat to realize that his foot is acting on reflex.

This is what you get in a society with all the overbearing safety percussions. Life isn't life without some risk. Wild animals often don't even go a day without moments of risk.

Is it me or doest it seem very stupid to fly head on at each other? Ok I'm for taking risks but to take them in a show where there is nothing at stake, no prizes to win, no real glory to achieve. Lets hope they had chance to produce some kids before it was bye bye gene pool.

Too short, is it a joke or a mistake? And what was the reaction of the judges?

The woman in the front sucking the beer bottle lite it's an baby milk bottle.

What does this teach us!? Don't go to church it's way to embarrassing.

What a waste of energy!

I'm still waiting for the punchline.

The jackass generation!!

I once had 1 of those cube thing. You could fold it in different shapes revealing commercial stuff. No stars inside though.

That dumb monkey should be in jail.

The second explosion is exactly the same as the first. Doesn't that say it all.

Evolution 101.

Well now he knows, wet cars are slippery.

Is this a bridge demolition or something?

To bad the quality is quite low, hard to see some of the moving parts.

Something very similar "The Worst Week of My Life" tv series. Especially the worst Christmas episodes.

Best comedy show ever.

Who, who, who, who, who, who, who... ... ...

I'm wondering about that guy's IQ holding the contraption like a sissy.

Good thing it failed otherwise the impact would have been a lot harder.

Try reading the subtitles and look for the mistakes at the same time. Some circling of the affected area's would have been nice.

"please don't try this"
(in the us)

Did u know cats can't taste sweet? My cat likes peas.

Awh, lit 'm in already.

This probably wouldn't even have worked with a hammer. The bar on witch the nuts r placed is much to bendy and slippery. Maybe a bit of glue would have helped to to keep them in place.

This Bush guy really should go to prison (and the lot behind him). I hate it how he's just a dumbass instead of a big criminal. Really the things he did and really not just to irac but also at home ("patriot"act, health care act etc comes to mind). The worst thing is he and followers are getting away with it.

Must be Santa's office department

Excellent illustration of how more and more traffic rules/ways of plying them just mess up the fun driving experience.

Agree with #(removed comment) (whats with the negative rating, he just gave his opinion, no spam or anything).

As if V-power is so great. I remember a few years back when they claimed that it gave much more performance power. They tested it in I think it was sat1 auto magazine. Turned out to be completely not true.

Don't tell the lions/tigers and other predators. They would probably love to get their claws on alcohol saturated meet

What's the name of the complete documentary?

I don't think those actual record drivers can appreciate this ad.

I usually hate football bloopers but at the end there were quite a few that were actually funny.

To bad that there is a good number of docored pics.

iPeople's think pattern:

"Shiny = MUST BUY!! No matter the crap underneath."

When I think about it, the car should have gotten stuck in the middle.

Imagine what we could do it we used our feet as a extra set of hands instead of just walking on them. Think keyboard instead of pedals.

At the end there should have been something like "I'm here now so what could possibly go wrong and a airplane engine falls trough the ceiling on top of Conan".

Love a good vista bashing.

I wonder if he could fill more than 2 min of a show?

Comedy and singing is never a good idea. If you want to sing don't put it in a comedy act. This is boring I can't believe he won that talent show.

Doesn't seem like they've been dating long. So why would she ask for a massage? Just seems like a weird thing to do.

Poor mans guitar.

Something to know for if you're stranded on a desert island.

Warning low IQ does not understand that steering left makes the vehicle go left and visa versa.

I wouldn't have left the keys in (especially it its a new car). And I probably would have driven around a bit more to hear where it was coming from.

Wonder what it looks like when you slow down the vid.

Donkey: "Ah finally break time!"

And what do you think he did with his break? Well he just hang around a bit.

Why is it that those Americans call their beer but? Do they like to eat ass or something?

Lately it seems all cats are trying to speak.

They all are beat up and haven't eaten much.

Always the best scaring people.

Useless. If more seats would pop out it might have been something but just changing the position is just useless.

I've seen way better flying "car" solutions.

There is so much simply wrong about this. (for the lack of a puke smilie)

With the right software you could do this with any smartphone (there r many better smartphones than the iphone).

That's what happens when you get greedy.

Gone in 60 seconds.

Even with the web quality of the video you can clearly see how he isn't moving the card he tells you he's moving.
So no wow factor if you ask me. Unless ur into skill clips.

That's just sad.

Ok I get it but common not being able to spell your own street name.

Maybe some dumbass used oregano instead of weed.

It should have said don't look inside. Also there should have been some sexy noises coming from the booth.

I wonder who had been waiting longer for a spot. Probably the red one so she got pissed when the white one took the space when she wasn't paying attention for a moment.

Survival of the fittest or just plane bad behavior?

Cool didn't see that coming.

That's just stupid. It would have been more surprising if something romantic happened. I was expecting eighter something like that happened or a race who can drink the fastest.

Thats 1 way of trying to get on Oprah.

I feel sorry for the cat especially having to "wash" before dinner. Having a fork/spoon/chopsticks strapped to your extremities seems annoying too.

He probably has that condition where ur skin is über lose (lack of collagen in his skin).

Maybe we should look at these creatures for the next oled display

Why would it be a blind guy? It's all about how she yet again dates a stupid man.

You can do the same deep voice by inhaling some nox if you happen to be in the fast cars scene

Illegal aliens, wonder where they are all going?

So business is war or something?

BTW to bad the guy didn't pull a gun to force signing the slip.

All those weapons misfirering... Guess thats not so weird as they always buy their stuff from the cheapest manufacturer.

Did he also lose the rings during his fall?

Those Americans must be taking dumb pills or something. Just like the 1 where this guy did know where KFC stands for but not where it's from.

Wow this really comes in handy when stranded on a deserted island
