REAL MADRID DROPS COPA DEL REY TROPHY

You've just won the National Championship> What do you do? Why you drop the trophy from the top of the bus and let the bus run over it of course!

The Good Slaughter

A Proud Meat Cutter Shares His Processing Floor. If you eat meat you need to be ok with this. Afterall, where do you think your steak comes from?

Playground #1

Watasun arrived with a basic melody line, some lyrics for the chorus, and the (potentially paraphrased) words of Miles Davis "It's not about the mistake, it's about the note you play right after".

The audience of around 40 people arrived in small groups. Most had never met before. Some bought instruments, others played ones bought by the band and the PGI team.

Watasun and the audience worked together for 45 minutes on building the song and The Miles Davis Jam was born.

UBC LipDub

This is bizarre but fascinating in some regards. Huge cast and long stretches of single takes (possibly one take). Can't imagine how long it must have taken to organize this and shoot it.

Water Jet Pack

Jetlev uses water to propel riders. I see some potentially neat uses for this including some rescue applications

Two men having a conversation

Well, by now you've probably seen the original video of twin boys talking to each other. It was inevitable that someone would do a parody. Here it is. Just as funny and mindless as the original.

Cleaning the cobra pit

You think you don't scare easy? This guy is definitely fearless.

Modern warfare

As technology advances, so too does the way it serves the military. The military might just be the possessors of the most highly advanced technology in the world. Eventually, I see a time when foot soldiers may no longer be needed. Just machines that do all the dirty work and controlled from very far away. It's already happening in the form of Tdrone aircraft.
