Would Headlights Work at Light Speed?

Would Headlights Work at Light Speed?

Vsauce breaks down this classic high school physics question. On one hand, we love this episode because Michael was laser focused. On the other hand, it still hurt our brain. Einstein was a freakin’ Einstein.

R/C Drifting in Japan

R/C Drifting in Japan

Kuma Films caught up with a group of talented drift racers going sideways around Yokohama, Japan’s WARU Circuit. But these guys can’t fit inside their cars, instead they hoon around the scale track using remote controls. (Thanks Todd!)

Does The Trojan Horse Still Work?

Does The Trojan Horse Still Work?

(NSFW: Language) “Hey we just got this uh, it’s a gift, from the Greeks. Can we leave it here overnight?” In 2006 comedy group The Chaser made a literal Trojan Horse to test if the mythical tactic would fly in the modern age. Original here.

2CELLOS: Hysteria

2CELLOS: Hysteria

Cellists Luka Sulic and Stjepan Hauser crank the energy level up to 9000 for this amazing, frenetic performance of the Muse classic Hysteria, done as only 2CELLOS can do it. One of the numerous epic tracks on their new album Celloverse.

Adam Savage’s Overlook Hotel Maze

Adam Savage’s Overlook Hotel Maze

Mythbuster Adam Savage spent nearly a month building this insanely detailed replica of the hedge maze model from Stanley Kubrick’s horror classic The Shining for his latest project on Tested. The work it took just to flock all the hedges is crazy.

3 vs. 50 Fencing

3 vs. 50 Fencing

Similar to Real Madrid’s chaotic game against 109 kids, a Japanese show pitted three Olympian fencers against 50 opponents of lesser skill. To score a kill, they had to pop the balloon on a player’s chest. Place your bets!

Nuthin’ But a G Thang

Nuthin’ But a G Thang

Universes awkwardly collided when OG sax player Kenny G performed Regulate with Warren G. The best part about this is you can see both men are in disbelief at what they’re doing. At least they got paid to be punchlines.

Dashuhua

Dashuhua

The dangerous tradition of Dashuhua has been practiced by blacksmiths as part of the Lantern festival for over 500 years. It involves throwing scraps of molten iron towards the bricks of the city gate, resulting in a fiery visual spectacle.

Cerberus at the Cat Door

Cerberus at the Cat Door

Three stooges take turns peeking from a cat door. We refuse to believe that there are multiple dogs behind this door (or that a person is wrangling them). It’s either a canine hydra or a shapeshifter. Yep, that’s our story.

Water Transfer Printing

Water Transfer Printing

Hydrographics or water transfer printing lets you apply graphics on objects in one go (if you’re good enough!), down to the nooks and crannies. Spending 14 minutes watching a dude decorate rims – just another day on the Internet.

Death Cab for Cutie: No Room in Frame

Death Cab for Cutie: No Room in Frame

“Was I in your way when the cameras turned to face you? No room in frame for two.” A single from Death Cab’s new album Kintsugi. Part of us wishes Ben Gibbard was Transatlanticism sad. Then we remember we’re not psychopaths.

Conan Tries Grindr

Conan Tries Grindr

BASE Jump Through Fog

BASE Jump Through Fog

This is a metaphor for many of life’s challenges. Something about lights, tunnels, heights and broken bones. Er, live by making sure today’s going to be your last? We’ll just let Marshall Miller show you. He’s a walking motivational poster.

Ping Pong Casual Smash Return

Ping Pong Casual Smash Return

With such a small playing field countering a smash in table tennis takes lightning quick reflexes. Or you could just have massive amounts of luck and style. His opponent’s reaction says it all.

25 Random Places to Stick a GoPro

25 Random Places to Stick a GoPro

Borrowing from the Vince Gilligan school of camerawork, Burger Fiction strapped a GoPro to everyday objects to provide a unique perspective on the world. The hammercam is cool, but we still think Breaking Bad’s shovelcam is the best.

The Katering Show

The Katering Show

(NSFW: Language) A stellar comedy cooking series. Kate McCartney is intolerant to a lot of edibles. Her friend Kate McLennan is trying to come up with safe food so she won’t have to live on booze alone. (Thanks Taylor!)

LWT: Elected Judges

LWT: Elected Judges

(NSFW: Languages) Last Week Tonight talks about the consequences of judiciary elections in the US. It’s just like political elections: at best you get horrible ads, and at worst you get candidates accepting money from questionable sources.
