In short… a TON of people roll down a hill after a piece of CHEESE!
Here is some info from Wikipedia:
The Cooper’s Hill Cheese Rolling and Wake is an annual event held in May at Cooper’s Hill, SO892146, near Cheltenham and Gloucester in the Cotswolds region of England. The event takes its name from the hill it occurs on, a name shared by the village on the hill. Competitors race down the hill after a Double Gloucester cheese, and the first person over the line wins the cheese. In theory, competitors are aiming to catch the cheese, but since it has a one second head start and can reach speeds up to 70 mph (enough to knock over and injure a spectator as it did in 1997), this rarely occurs.
At the very least this looks fun… but painful.

The Pistol Shrimp can use it’s claw to actually SHOOT a burst of bubbles @ it’s prey. The bubbles come out with such force that they actually implode and during the implosion reach the temperature of the sun! Blew my mind.

Talk about a depressing picture.
This is an all out wild beast BRAWL. A group of lions single out a small water cape buffalo from his herd and attack him. During the attack the little and 1 or 2 of the lions end up falling into the river. Out of No where a alligator crocodile pops up and tries the snatch the baby water cape buffalo from the lions!
They FINALLY get the baby water buffalo away from the alligator crocodile and it gets even MORE crazy…

This is just sad, and I hope the author of the video comes down with a mild case of non-fatal testicular cancer for treating his ferret like this.
Let me break down what happens here:
- Ferret is offered jalapeno
- He accepts
- Flip out session
- Runs and pounds some water
- Bastard offers ferret some more

This clip explains how to cut an onion without crying. No, then answer is not “Just don’t be a little bitch about it” as there happens to be a true reason for why we cry:
There are juices and chemicals inside the onion’s tissues; when your knife breaks the onion’s cells a certain compound becomes airborne as a fine mist. This compound is called propanethial-S-oxide, which is a type of sulfoxide. When the misty droplets encounter a wet surface (your eyes or nose membranes) it dissolves into a form of sulfuric acid, which is understandably irritating to your sensitive organs.

Video of one of Asch’s conformity experiments. Below is a paraphrase from Wikipedia:
 The Asch conformity experiments, published in 1951, were a series of studies that starkly demonstrated the power of conformity in groups.
Experiments led by Solomon Asch asked students to participate in a “vision test.” In reality, all but one of the participants were confederates of the experimenter, and the study was really about how the remaining student would react to the confederates’ behavior.
The participants — the real subject and the confederates — were all seated in a classroom where they were told to announce out loud their judgment of the length of several lines drawn on a series of displays. They were asked which line was longer than the other, which were the same length, etc. The confederates had been prearranged to all give an incorrect answer to the tests.
While most subjects answered correctly, many showed extreme discomfort, and a high proportion (32%) conformed to the erroneous majority view of the others in the room when there were at least three confederates present, even when the majority said that two lines different in length by several inches were the same length. When the confederates were not unanimous in their judgment, subjects were much more likely to defect than when the confederates all agreed. Control subjects with no exposure to a majority view had no trouble giving the correct answer.

Looks like this cat seems to have completely owned a bear?
Fact: Bears eat beats.
This guy was sick of his roommate slamming the door every morning at 6am so he buttered the tile floor and set up a camera to teach him a lesson. And if that wasn’t enough, he got him again later that day.
And now i present the buttered tile floor video:

hehehe… this is a cool way to eat your Pi(e)!
Someone took the liberty to make a Pie plate with the Pi symbol on it. There are many layers of humor here… as you probably know, pi (3.41) is the ratio between a circle’s circumference (around it) to it’s diameter (across) so putting the numbers around the plate is pretty witty imo.
Nice!
YES!
