Wow, this got the ol' eye-faucets running!

The basic idea is easy to figure out, but I'm still curious if he is sitting in a swing/harness or how he is supported so evenly. I've seen these guys in Rome and they sit there all day, it would have to be somewhat comfortable in order to tolerate it for so long.

I'm pretty sure Helium is actually in relatively short supply. I look forward to the day beer is created for working class people again, and not hipsters.

Hey, at least he had his little inflatable mattress just in case.

May I suggest FEATHER TOUCH?

Redistributing this much water will likely increase seismic activity as well.

Hey look, I'm people, come closer... NOM NOM NOM!

Super interesting!

...or a bicycle even.

I totally agree with #2
It's not about speed, but it's also not about stamina or skill level. It's about simplicity, reliability and versatility.

A bit of an Aussie accent possibly? Well done!

That guy talking... he lives on my couch and plays my xbox when I'm at work.

Escape velocity?

This isn't just Japan, this is everywhere.

It's true, chopping wood demonstrations are the same as karate chop demonstrations, it's all about the wood. Imagine trying to chop a fresh knotty stump with that. Plus an axe can fell a tree, chop it into parts, then split them.

That's my point #9, nobody has the knowledge, tools or ability to feed themselves. It's not about having a rifle, I'm talking about the old teach-a-man-to-fish theory.

Not to go all hippie on everyone, but imagine how incredible this falls would have looked before anything around was developed. I guess the grey winter pallet doesn't help either.

Are you guys seriously arguing through comment posts? Come on.

I personally believe it's disrespectful to detach yourself from the reality of humanity's intake of food and simply rely on shelves to be stocked. So many things out of our control could disrupt this. Who here even knows how to make a pizza pop?

Anyone know which National Geographic program this was taken from? I'm wondering if there's a full length documentary, I'd like to see more.

Seriously #2? ...A commercial? Lame!

Very interesting. I wonder if a process-of-elimination can be compared to making decisions though. The roots of a plant could probably be comparable, when observing how they search out ground water.

There's a strange red blurry effect on the camera sometimes that looks like the water turns blood red in spots, then goes away.

Me and cispi like this shit

"MOM!...More Hot Pockets!"

I love her!

#13 - You misunderstand! I LOVE drunk foreigners!
Don't be like a seagull.

Seagulls are kind of the dickweeds of the sky anyway. You could actually personify them similarly to these drunk foreigners.

My thoughts were similar to the comments #1 made. I'm certainly no expert and I mean no disrespect but if she has never seen a baby, at 54 seconds into the video it seems like her eyes are functioning quite well for somebody who has been blind their whole life. If this is a device for people with partial vision, that is an important piece of information left out, and following it up with a link to "make blindness history"...that would therefor be disrespectful to people who are totally blind, in my opinion.

Pilots are being hailed as heroes. The trajectory of the plane was due to an emergency reaction to avoid setting the aircraft down in a densely populated area. They crashed in a small river which save countless lives on the ground, and possibly some of the passengers due to the lack of fire in the crash. So far, I have read there are 15 survivors, which is the real story here.

That was really cool, regardless what they're selling.

Portugal has got some mildly entertaining ability.

I loved this, but the part at the beginning, in the store... priceless!

Funnest family EVER!

#1 - I liked your comment mainly because of your emoticon! :E
Hahahaha!

He didn't drink sh!t.

As a Canadian, seeing this is so frustrating. Look at the rail technology in Europe and Asia, then look at these monstrosities.
You would think the second largest country in the world, with almost all it's population running in a straight line along the border with the US, would invest heavily in an efficient rail system.

#1, I just watched it a second time, can't get enough of the sounds he's getting with the amp and effect pedals. I checked the comments expecting to find a bunch of other people thinking the same thing.

Reality check though, everyone has a different opinion.

@ #1 Exposed surface area for cooling could be an issue, I'm no rocket surgeon though.

Worst party EVER!

That bug infested ground is TERRIFYING!

I highly recommend watching the 2012 doc made by Stacy Peralta, called "Bones Brigade: An Autobiography". Very in depth look at Rodney, as well as the rest of the guys.
Gnarly!

#12 makes the most sense, I would like to see your video next.

I'd have dropped several Chili Peppers and added many more Primus riffs. Good job though.

The most humanity I've seen from prison footage.

Will work for tires.

I really wanted this to be cool!

Looks like a coin operated amusement ride.

Hahaha whatever, this guy is hilarious!

"We'll have a T-shirt for ya."

Tony was a racecar driver!

It goes all accordion at the end!

A hackable military vehicle with a name that rhymes with Anonymous...nice.

@ #2 "Allergies".

I bombed hills for almost 14 years... never came close to those speeds. The wobble issue is why I went with a dropdown design from Landyachtz in North Vancouver. Feet sit below the kingpin, making the deck naturally want to sit at it's lowest point, instead of a higher deck wanting to fall to the left or right, causing the trucks to turn.

What's he wearing on his wrist? I can't imagine a physics teacher wearing one of those magic magnetic bracelets.

Such a great idea!

Would ya just look at that?

I really liked this.

Okay, that's really impressive.

Another carefully edited video of how North Korea wants the rest of the world to see them.

"So we took a whole shitload of living plants, squeezed all the green sh!t out of 'em, and made a plasticky leafe thingie."

Great piece of detective work there!

Obviously a patient, dedicated trainer too. Notice the other dogs don't interfere.

#10, how much did Valve offer?
...?

There is a tug-of-war going on between how cool these guys think they are, and how ridiculous they look with those moomoo chute-suites and helmetcams.

What's next Redbull, Xtreme tetherball?

1) Take your backpack off
2) Toss your backpack across
3) Jump across
4) Put your backpack on again and continue hiking, sans mudface.

The one flipping around... is that a child, or a miniature man?

That guy just wrestled a tornado!

Funny video... This is actually a two-person kayak, not a canoe, made for an entirely different purpose than what a canoe is made for.

At least move all those tires not yet involved in the fire.
Also, maybe don't let this happen again if you don't know what to do about it.

Most likely a scam, I wonder if the instructor believes in what he is doing. The first thing that occurred to me was that he was using power of suggestion (hypnosis) to control his "attackers", however, if this is the case, hypnosis only works on those willing to submit. Makes no sense as a defensive skill.

Things I would avoid with this device:
1) anything with a whammy bar / Bigsby tremolo
2) any guitar with poor intonation. (obviously)
This looks like a really cool high-end tuner though.

Ooooh, pretty!

Sounds like Thomas Magnum narrating.

I've seen this guy before, and he's very impressive! I'm most impressed with whoever made the instrument though!

If you ask a French girl to hold your bagel sandwich, she will eat it.

Too many dudes!

Poor sound, and not the outcome most were hoping for, but here is a little more footage I found on youtube:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aQp7pGLZJM8

I'm curious if the sound is cut off half way through, or if the dead silence is a result of the reaction taking place. Just occurred to me that a photographer in a helicopter flying over Chernobyl reported a dead silence when he opened the helicopter window, not sure if this is related in any way.

As a child, my family helped out neighboring Vietnamese family, new to Canada. They returned the favor by giving us a few pigeons they caught in a highway underpass. It was a nice gesture, but after my brothers and I lost interest, they were messy and by parents wanted to get rid of them. We drove an hour away to the coast, let them go and said our tearful goodbye. On our drive home we reminisced about our fun times with the birds. When we arrived home, the pigeons were sitting on top of their cage waiting for us.

Reminds me of a similar application I've seen used in skyscrapers. Some very tall buildings have giant pendulums near the top to offset the swaying caused by wind and seismic activity. Possibly a future video idea for Snotr.

Well done!
Proper internet etiquette should always include a monetary donation at the end of any video of a street performer.

#5 Tesla also clearly underestimated the importance of patenting his ideas, which was the underlying success of Edison.

When 2 dudes disagree about engines, they should fight. That's the way it's always been. (kidding)

Respect to the lifeguard, that was PRO! Lifts her out and onto the flotation device all in one motion.

Very interesting. I would like to see this in real-time, instead of just a time-lapse. I expect that is why there is no sound.

I really liked this, well done!

Good idea, very staged and phony-feeling though.

Looks closer to stereo-optic instead of virtual reality. VR should move 3D camera with head movement. It appears this does a little, but nothing like the VR I've tried.

Stereo-optic is the future though, no doubt about it. The era of displaying media on a single rectangular surface is coming to an end, no matter how many pseudo-3d gimmicks are added to TVs.

HAhaha, #1, you said what I was thinking quicker than I could type.

You = The MAN!

A GREAT Canadian.

#5, #6, Thankfully in Canada, we know what ice looks like and we make sure to drive accordingly. Vancouver is an exception, however.

Flip that ear over, it's driving me CRAZY!

Pretty convenient to just assume this guy had it coming to him, watching a distant video from the comfort of your chair.

"SUCCESS"
-The difference between making it to the Fail Compilation video, and making it to the People are Awesome video.

This is a great idea. In my opinion, it needs to be simplified a little and could use a lower profile, possibly lose the head rest.

Well done though, very creative approach.

Please explain!

Dogs can swim fine, it's exiting a wobbly canoe that they're not comfortable with.

Tuck & roll, nice!

Hungry Hungry Hippos!

BUSH LEAGUE!

Can you do that with no clothes on though?

1:03 Thanks for flying over Canada too!

My goodness that's a strange soundtrack.

So many things could go wrong in a split second, I can't help but think of the many dangers involved.
However, this does remind me of the curiosity and primal urge which leads everyone to poking a bonfire with a stick for hours on end at some point in their life.

22 seconds into this video, dude sitting underneath the wing takes a puff off his cigarette while the pilot pours fuel directly above.

Oooh, almost landed it too! Hahaha

Darwin was RIGHT!

Poser!

Don't go warn people, just stay in your apartment and video tape it.

Not to be lame, but this isn't a tornado, but it is impressive. These disturbances happen more often than you think but are only visible when traveling over things like snow, sand or water.

I've seen better.
