Marilyn Myller

Marilyn Myller

Mikey Please follows up The Eagleman Stag with another metafictional stop-motion short. Marilyn Myller calls attention to the perverted catharsis that we’ve come to prefer over tedious tasks such as examination and reflection.

Heat Resistant Ice Cream Sandwich

Heat Resistant Ice Cream Sandwich

When Dan Collins heard that Walmart’s ice cream sandwiches don’t melt even in direct sunlight, he put the suspect snack to the test. Myth confirmed. Heat resistance level: McDonald’s. NASA, you seeing this?

Flying over Fire

Flying over Fire

For National Geographic’s Die Trying, adventurer George Kourounis zip-lined over a flaming gas crater in Turkmenistan, on an exploratory mission looking for “extremophile” microbes which can survive in such insane conditions.

Roomba Knife Fight

Roomba Knife Fight

(NSFW: Language) In a moment of drunken brilliance, Rooster Teeth decided to make their old Roomba go down fighting against its newer counterpart. If you really want to try this at home, ditch the knife for a stick. Skip to 1:50.

Car Wheel POV

Car Wheel POV

By sticking his GoPro to the wheel of his car (using duct tape!) University of Wisconsin student Ryan Fox captured the dizzying life from the perspective of a spinning car wheel. Jane, stop this crazy thing!

How to Catch Piranhas

How to Catch Piranhas

We actually never knew that piranhas were worth catching, but apparently some people eat them. This video from Brazil shows a really easy way to catch the little carnivores – though we’d be afraid they’d take off our hand.

A Truncated Story of Infinity

A Truncated Story of Infinity

The possible outcomes of a man meeting his lover for the first time. This short story about romance in parallel universes is hampered by pretentious narration and dilly dallying, but it does have great cinematography and editing.

Not Mine

Not Mine

Graphic designer and animator Guy Trefler’s graduation project. His thesis was that nothing is original, so he made this video using images he found on Google Images. If Andy Warhol and Terry Gilliam had a child, it would be Trefler.

Karen O: Rapt

Karen O: Rapt

(NSFW: Lyrics) Yeah Yeah Yeahs frontwoman Karen O lounges underwater in the music video for Rapt, a single from her upcoming solo album Crush Songs, a “collection of lo-fi, bedroom recordings” that Karen made in 2006 and 2007.

KJ Nakanelua: Raw Run

KJ Nakanelua: Raw Run

To promote Arbor Skateboards, KJ Nakanelua takes us on a downhill run through Hawaii at a pace that we’d have trouble keeping up with in a car. Kudos to chase cam operator Nate Shute for capturing the action so flawlessly.

Shotgun with a Silencer

Shotgun with a Silencer

While silencers have been readily available for rifles and handguns for years, this is the first time we’ve seen one on a shotgun. The SilencerCo Salvo Shotgun Suppressor lets you shoot skeet in near silence. Where did the boom go?

Freezer Burn!

Freezer Burn!

It makes absolutely no sense that you’d remake the trailer for the 1987 classic Lethal Weapon using ice cream in place of Mel Gibson and Danny Glover, but somehow this silly animation by toy designers Attaboy and Aaron Tomkins works.

2015 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat

2015 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat

While it’s not official, government filings indicate that Dodge is working on an SRT Hellcat variant of its redesigned 2015 Charger. If it’s anything like the Challenger, we’re looking at a 707hp 6.2-liter supercharged HEMI powering this beast.

Disappear, Appear

Disappear, Appear

Like Laurin Döpfner, Simon Gerbaud became obsessed with destroying objects neatly, exposing their insides and cross-sections bit by bit until all that’s left is dust, only to play the footage back to make the objects whole.

Satoshi Kon: Editing Space & Time

Satoshi Kon: Editing Space & Time

Film critic Tony Zhou looks at the editing style of the late Satoshi Kon (Paprika, Millennium Actress). His obsession with our multiple realities – social circles, memories, the Internet – led to his disorientating cuts and transitions.

Turn Down for What without Music

Turn Down for What without Music

(NSFW?) We already had to wash our eyeballs out with soap the first time we watched the video for DJ Snake and Lil’ Jon’s Turn Down for What. Now that College Humor has had their way with it, we might be scarred for life.

Two Balloons, One Bullet

Two Balloons, One Bullet

Rated RR dared .22 cal trick shot expert 22plinkster to hit two side-by-side balloons with just one bullet… not once, but twice. He ended up doing it three times. Maybe this action hero was on to something after all.

Stan Lee’s New Heroes

Stan Lee’s New Heroes

In this sketch from their upcoming 4th season, Key & Peele poke fun at comic book legend Stan Lee, as he pitches a variety of new superheroes which are merely a reflection of his everyday life as an old man.

Three-Year-Old Drummer Boy

Three-Year-Old Drummer Boy

Three-year-old Lyonya Shilovskya was invited to join the stage with a symphony orchestra in Russia to perform a section of Offenbach’s classic Orpheus in the Underworld. We’re still convinced he’s an adult in a little kid costume.

Accidental Loop the Loop

Accidental Loop the Loop

YouTuber cieradawn91’s 3-year old daughter wanted to get out of a fun house, but the barrel that led to the exit wouldn’t stop turning. Despite her attempts at witchcraft, we’re not sure if she ever made it out.

Lazy Man’s BBQ

Lazy Man’s BBQ

Remembering to turn over food on the grill can be a pain in the butt – especially if you want to enjoy a few beers with your pals. This guy seems to have come up with a solution – assuming all you want to cook is kebabs. (Thanks Versetty!)

Don’t Mind Me…

Don’t Mind Me…

A clowder of cats is busy enjoying their meal when an uninvited raccoon stops by to see if he can get in on the action. His entrance and departure is not exactly what we’d call subtle, but it is comedy gold.

Birthday Party

Birthday Party

The Shaffer Boys, the guys behind the bro-tastic Slip N’ Slide video are back with another celebration of suburban bliss, living out their childhood dreams of the perfect backyard birthday party.
