A24 is the studio behind such dark and intense movies as Midsommar, Men, and The Lighthouse. Imagine what might happen if the indie studio released Mike Myers’ bizarre live-action version of Dr. Seuss’ The Cat in the Hat. It might look something like this terrifying horror edit from YourMovieSucksDOTorg.
Embrace your inner boozehound and pop open a cold brew with this matter-of-fact metal bottle opener from Midnight MFG. It’s machined from aluminum and comes engraved with the phrase, “F**k It Let’s Drink.” It’s available in clearcoat or black anodized finishes, with censored or wordless bottlecap variants also available.
It’s not nearly as large as their record-setting ice carousel, but this spinning race track from the Beyond the Press channel looks like a fun wintertime activity. We did get a little dizzy watching the video at times, though. In case you’re interested, those three-wheeled, all-season scooters come from Skick.
The 8-bit NES offered family-friendly games like Super Mario Bros. and The Legend of Zelda. But in the hands of Aussie builder Electrosync, the console is now a killer robot. After ripping out the console’s innards, he installed a remote-controlled drivetrain and a spinning sawblade to take down other beetleweight combat robots.
There’s a good reason that wheels are round: friction. But basic physics are never going to stand in the way of mad builder The Q. His latest creation is a standard bike frame with one major modification – it rolls on custom-made square wheels. It rides pretty smoothly, but it also doesn’t work how we assumed it would.
Ever wonder what your tools do when your workshop is closed for the night? Well we now know what the shop vacs are up to. Wild Balkan Creations shared this hilarious “when the cat’s away, the mice will play” video showing the kind of trouble these suckers get into after hours.
“Girls with blue whiskers tied up with noodles… These are a few of my favorite things.” Sound collage artists Negativland’s deranged edit of My Favorite Things from The Sound of Music dates back a decade but was too hilarious to pass up. Their take on There’s No Business Like Show Business is similarly bonkers.
Joel and Ellie on The Last of Us have quickly become our favorite pairing since Walter White and Jesse Pinkman. Screen Junkies is here with their sarcastic take on the latest zombie series that’s not about zombies at all, with an Honest Trailer that’s ironically been sponsored by Dead Island 2.
With the right equipment and a jet ski, it’s possible to fly thanks to pressurized water. After seeing some obviously faked videos of people flying with a pressure washer, I did a thing wanted to know how many it would take to really get you off the ground. But first, he needed to upgrade to industrial-strength machines.
Have you joined the adult coloring book cult yet? Steven Rhodes’ wickedly funny drawings will have you reaching for your crayons to color kid-unfriendly parodies such as Death Metal Sing-Along, Alien Abduction Club, and Here Comes the Apocalypse, plus warped activities like occult career selector paper dolls.
This tongue-in-cheek doormat welcomes visitors into your home with a warning of what kind of shenanigans they might encounter. Designed to mimic the ESRB “M for Mature” rating, your guests should be ready for lots of swearing and drunken debauchery. The mat measures 22.5″ x 15″ and is made from low-pile polyester.
A while back, Fletcher from Everything Is Hacked came up with a way to control a computer with his face with your face. Now he’s created an input method to get his cardiovascular system going. He used a computer vision algorithm to detect the positions of his arms and legs to type letters and numbers using semaphore.
It’s been eight years since we heard the all-knowing words of the Dog of Wisdom. Our favorite animated wiener dog is back, and he’s on a mission to fetch us a fresh new batch of wisdom. Perhaps this time, the true meaning of life will be revealed. Or at least a good punchline.
Most remote-controlled airplanes are made from lightweight materials like styrofoam or carbon fiber. Not one to be constrained by norms, maker Peter Sripol and his pals wanted to see if they could build aircraft made almost entirely from food — the ingredient list: puffed rice, barley, tortillas, and caramelized sugar.
Despite having four legs and spending half their time on land, biologists think that hippopotami are related to whales and dolphins. ZeFrank is here to entertain and educate with a nature film about these jumbo-size, semi-aquatic mammals. We had no idea that hippos could sleep while underwater. Caution: Hippo poop ahead.
Omozoc is known for their creative stop-motion animations. Their latest clip plays with the idea that everyday objects come to life and play while the humans are sleeping. It’s actually a commercial for Chinese automaker BYD, but you’d never know it until the logo appears at the end.
DJ Cummerbund is at it again, making musical remixes that should make no sense yet work brilliantly. This time, he took Paul Simon’s Me and Julio Down by the Schoolyard and replaced Julio with Coolio. Funny enough, Simon’s original music video starts with a rap by Big Daddy Kane and Biz Markie.
We know how important the work of foley artists can be when it comes to adding sound effects to movies. But the clueless dudes in this animated comedy sketch from deansoups must have fallen asleep – or smoked a whole lot of weed – while attending foley school.
There is a house in this beautywood; they call the rising sun. There I Ruined It proves that there’s no ruining Mr. Rogers with this wonderful, but woefully short mashup of Won’t You Be My Neighbor? with The Animals classic House of the Rising Sun. We wonder what he could do with It’s Such a Good Feeling.
Inspired by that commercial where the guy plays drums on his Pringles cans, Eric and Tony G from EMCproductions made their own set of drums out of potato crisp (and Gatorade) cans. They replaced the plastic lids with balloons as drum heads and used their metal bottoms as “cymbals.”
When does skateboarding not require a skateboard? When you use the wheels from the bottom of your office chair instead. Inline skating expert Ilia Savosin shows us how its done by strapping a pair of five-wheel chair bases to his feet and hitting the skate park. We wonder how much smoother they would roll on these casters.
Give your cacti or other small houseplants a special place on your shelf in these spooky resin skull planters. The trio is based on the classic Three Wise Monkeys image, also known as “see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil.” Though if you had a cactus instead of a brain, you wouldn’t have to worry about any of those things.
The Auralnauts used some editing and visual effects trickery to make it look like the characters in The Matrix movies (and Wilford Brimley) are reciting the lyrics to the Vanilla Ice hit Ice Ice Baby. Take the red pill, and it’s really Queen and David Bowie’s Under Pressure.
