(PG-13 Language) RocketJump takes on the TV and movie trope in which people skip the conference room and one spews out a detailed situation report while in motion. The end result is like Too Many Cooks, but on foot.

“Can’t I listen to just one podcast without hearing a Space Draft Kings commercial?!” The Sith’s new poster boy is the exact opposite of cool, calm and collected. Animator Bill Bergen imagines how Kylo Ren would react to life’s little annoyances.

“I think when it’s done it’s gonna be amazing. Roadkill amazing anyway.” The clinically insane folks at Roadkill spent only 5 days haphazardly making a circle track car street legal by giving it a 1970 Monte Carlo’s body. Behold, the NASCarlo. Will When will it break down?

“Whenever there’s a new tool, everybody goes crazy and they forget the fact that there’s a story.” Star Wars creator George Lucas recently had a lengthy chat with Charlie Rose. Yes he’s bitter, but he also has great points. Also he made Star Wars. Full video here.

Did you know that an idiot intentionally caused a train collision as a spectacle? And that lady in the sketch? That’s Pocahontas. Or not. After all, our idea of Shakespeare’s looks is based on the work of a mediocre artist who never even met the man. All that and more in Cracked’s video.

From the “what is this sorcery file” comes a cake that’s been frosted in a manner that makes it change colors as it’s viewed from different angles. Apparently it has to do with the combing technique, and wasn’t coated with Plasti-Dip, but you never know.

Film essayist Now You See It examines some great moments of on-screen improvisation, techniques for film improv, as well as the reasons that directors allow for it – from capturing raw and real emotion, to the silliness that often comes from true spontaneity.

While the sound effects are all wrong, we got a good chuckle from Reid Southen’s doctoring of this scene from Raiders of the Lost Ark, replacing the giant boulder with another round, rolly object. Also, he made this a year ago, so he had no idea what BB-8 sounded like yet.

Amazing footage from Sueños de Agua, an epic projection mapping performance put on last year in Seville, Spain. Of particular note is how the dragons breathe real fire, thanks to synchronization with the pyrotechnics. Skip to 8:00 if you can’t watch the whole show.

There are many humorous or fake how-to channels on YouTube. eHow Food is not one of them; its videos are actually meant to be informative. And yet they took the time to produce, shoot, edit and upload this.

Also known as “flexible microactuators” – these unusual soft robotic devices can manipulate objects like human fingers do. They’re more than a little phallic, but still impressive. The bit with where they turn the bolt is hypnotic. Oh, and the same guys developed this nightmare.

YouTuber rosswho shares what is supposedly the teaser for next year’s Australia’s Got Talent. It shows a fish entering a sushi restaurant’s kitchen. Nah. It’s Beaker checking out Dr. Honeydew’s latest experiment. Nah. It’s our reaction as we’re watching the teaser.

The Warriors’ Steph Curry and the Kings’ Omri Casspi turned the 2nd quarter of their match into a video game. In 3 minutes, they made nine 3-point shots, some from over 30ft. The crazier fact? Back in January, Curry’s teammate Klay Thompson did this and more all by himself.

YouTuber Teodoulke’s Video’s adorable cat tries to guilt his master into giving him a piece of a sandwich. This is exactly how we looked like when we saw our friend’s PlayStation back when it just came out.

YouTuber Sergio Tapia shares this video of a real-life Regan MacNeil. This kid doesn’t need an exorcism, but his extreme flexibility lets him turn his head almost 180º degrees. The only thing we can say is…

“Does “G”mail use more gigs than “E”mail?” A woman gives up on using the Internet because she can’t figure out how it works. Elizabeth Mcdonough’s skit pokes fun at the sexist computer science videos from the ’80s. Because sadly, the prejudice still exists today.

Motorhead magazine’s second parade at Japan’s famous drifting spot features Lotus and Benetton Formula One racers, a Toyota GT84, an Evora 400 and of course a handful of Nissan GT-R R35s. We think last year’s video was better, but we really can’t complain.

For the latest episode of Man at Arms: Reforged, the guys at Baltimore Knife and Sword recreated the deadly and awesome sounding multi-blade weapon that Kitana wields in Mortal Kombat. Fan yourself with one of these, and you’re likely to remove a limb.

In yet another unaired Saturday Night Live skit, Kyle “Cut for Time” Mooney posed as a mumbling and bumbling reporter and spoke to people waiting in the rain for a Justin Bieber concert.

Developed by Disney Research and ETH Zurich, this ingenius robot can change from riding on the ground to driving sideways up walls like a boss. It uses rotating propellers to transition from ground to wall modes, then provide the thrust to hold it to the wall.
