Reminds me of Independence Day

Luckily I have seen something similar as a kid once, very impressive.

Well, as someone else suggested a while ago:

1. Pause this video here and mute the sound
2. Open this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MK6TXMsvgQg in new tab/window and play it
3. Resume the video here and enjoy the show

Well to be honest, this could be me.
Imagine, just after a hard day at work you are on your way home trying to catch the ferry. You are running late and see it leave just a few minutes to early for you.
You snap and are like: "I am gonna catch that f***** ferry!" And floor it
what you see here is the result.

#10 i dont think so, the smart ones are most likely the black sheep and the kids with bad grades and worse behavior... (because they get bored and do silly things to keep em awake)
(not all little pricks that dont know how to behave are smart though)

For a crazy but great taste try it out in a Pretzel Roll or in German Laugenbrötchen

The excitement wouldnt surprise you, if you knew that the average beer consumption per person is about 3,5 - 4 liter

there is a longer version on here.
but thanks for the better quality

It´s a show you can enjoy in Furth im Wald in Germany.

I´ve actually been there as a child, twentyfive years ago, but I can´t remember much
I think I might have to check out this new dragon

Check out: http://www.drachenstich.de/index.php/english for more info.

#10 it can´t be Aluminum because of the colored hot chips. Al wouldnt get blue.
Looks like a hot forged steel to me, something like a S355J2G3 or 16MnCr5...
Also it´s most likely they use cold compressed air with a hint of cutting oil for cooling and chip removal.

Jesper Tjäder is one sick dude!
Also check out the Supervention Movie if you have the chance!

So why is this in the category awesome?!

I whish I could sit on the back of one of those stupid people and treat them like they treat the elephants...
I would smack the living sh** out of them, and then some...

As far as I know, this is intentional and part of ship breaking. They´re trying to get the ship as far on land as they can, then they brake it up und recycle the materials.
Otherwise it would be very scary...

Whats the video effect in the end called when they film the two interviews?
The Drunken Camera Man?? Seriously whats going on there??

more like Run ferret, Run!

Yes, I would say so.
Here you can see whats possible with a real one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RGu45s1_QPU
That is a BO-105 CBS 4 Twin engine, which has a max weight of 2500kg.
The power is about 626kW. So the Power to Weight Ratio is approximately 0,25kW per 1kg.

Let´s say the Model here is an Align T-REX 500 Pro, the flight weight about 1,83kg.
The electric motor has an max output power of 2,3kW.
So the power to weight ratio of the model is approx. 1,26kW per 1kg.

That´s the huge difference that you see.

Also, you don´t have to consider the safety issue in the model. You don´t need to make every part 4-5 times stronger than they have to be in a real heli, so you can save a lot of weight...

And just to let you know, in my opinion (I have tried my luck with RC Helis...) I guess it takes you 5-8 Years of daily practice to get this kind of skills. Maybe faster when you start flying as a kid.

#4 watch this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cf5iG299hzk

it´s because the positive and negative pitch and the perfect combination between them.
hope i could help

#(removed comment): why should they spend the money on stupidity and laziness in people instead of science?
-> Idiocracy... here we come or what?! (Awesome movie btw, but I hope it doesn´t get real sometimes I fear there is more truth in that movie than they intended while making it)

I don´t know, sounds floppy to me

Almost as good as Colbert's nuclear explosion. But its a shame that it is so deadly.

Thank God I´m not a woman...
I would get distracted by my own cleavage, miss a step and fall down

As far as I know he s okay. No broken bones, what I can hardly believe...
There is also a nice onboard view of his run here:

And now do it with trailers and 40 tons

Thats the problem if you try smelting magnesium (I think)... its not that easy
A few years ago BMW had also problems when starting to produce their engines from magnesium. (With the same results... Thats what a Prof told me )

#3
the point of this video is to show you what their cranes are capable of...
and it gives you a nice feeling of the different sizes of each model.
I think it´s pretty impressive to see this

#17:
if a person like that is able to drive a car, then driving is obviously way to easy

And.....
it´s a woman
think she didn´t quite understood the concept of those things....

#4:
I´m pretty sure your knife at home is a lot sharper than this tool...
otherwise the tool wouldn´t be strong enough to handle those forces... the only thing this tool is, its much harder than your kitchen knife

well and then there are the next neighbors disturbed...

how about the good old "turn down the music or I will break your finger methode"
works fine for me everytime

on the other hand...
this device should turn on when the music from the neigbor stops, so that he can hear it...
doesnt make much sense to play the music if he doesnt hear it cuz his own music is much louder...

just my two cents

2:58 Math Fail...
200 or 300 meters per second?! thats almost the speed of sound (340m/s)
It doesn´t reach more than 100 m/s (=360kph)

#5:
yes it does
but its worth it

here is the full video:

It´s the same company that came up with this:

#15: I had this in my mind : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cDeKuHPIuvg

#7: That´s why it´s called the Mega Ramp

#9 its a Graupner Rookie costs about 100,-€

Sweet video...
How about a "Ow my Balls!" - Collection

Those Crazy Germans

Drunk Billy will be missed

Nice... If you like the sound check out http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GUEZCxBcM78

#9 because thats the only thing most people know about germany

would have been more effective if they used nails like they do on buildings to prevent pigeons

If he was smart he would expected that the driver couldnt have enough time to see him because of his speed.
Solution is to know where you are driving (And I´m pretty sure he knows this street), and lower your speed at such an area to give the car driver time to see you.
But he is still a moron to do that at an open road.

Sorry, but it looks more like the Stelvio Pass in Italy.

Fantastic

I wouldnt take a ride in that car... This could kill you
here s a vid of 2000 watt in your desk :
http://www.wimp.com/megabass/

If you like this, go check out the Red Bull Rampage videos

3:15 can it get any worse?

And I thought i have problems with martens

Comming Up on The Clock Channel 6 o'clock

sounds a bit floppy i guess

notice the fail safe at 2:35 when he´s approaching those antennas

Fun for the whole family

POW right in the Kisser!

somehow that reminds me of that video:
http://www.snotr.com/video/1883

Without proper engine sound it doesn´t look that fast...

That´s crazy.
Diving 202 metres and then climb it up again holding your breath all the time? no way... i just can´t imagine that...
Otherwise it´s a great video

What an egghead move
