Insane. People in China are playing WoW for 12+ hours a day collecting Gold, which is “in game” money. The Gold is then sold for REAL money to other people trying to build up their character.
WoW is a disease!

Check out the full sized version of this pic on the left. This psychedelic image moves with such fluidity that it might make you want to throw up lol.
I tried blowing the image up a little bit to maybe have a more dramatic effect but the smaller version is much better. Gotta love the optical illusions.
5 dudes on the streets of Chicago play some face melting drum beats on buckets. The skill is amazing and some parts their drum sticks move so fast it looks like they are playing under a strobe.
Awesome!
From Wikipedia:
Tsar Bomba (Russian: Царь-бомба, literally “Emperor Bomb”) is the Western name for the largest, most powerful nuclear weapon ever detonated. Developed by the Soviet Union, the bomb of about 50 megatons was codenamed Ivan by its developers.
The picture on the top left shows the size in relation to other bombs. Hiroshima is probably the most memorable one in the line up but as you can see it is TINY in relation to the Tsar Bomba. Scary!
I also have a video of the Tsar Bomba being tested on October 30, 1961, in Novaya Zemlya — Novaya Zemlya is located in the North Western part of Russia.
Amazing video:
This is an instructional video on how to use a condom… to make fire! Pretty cool.
Wow this is so sad!
Skeeter is a toy poodle who has narcolepsy! The poor dog’s narcolepsy is set off by excitement so he pretty much can’t do anything… walk, jump on the couch, EAT.
The worst part is that he’s on human antidepressants! This post is getting tagged with just about everything I’ve got!
Here is the video:
Another shocking clip.. this one is of a sewer going completely out of control. The sewer is in the center divide of a freeway, blows it’s top and erupts into a volcano of water.
It’s so crazy that it causes a car accident!
This guy is a true master of stacking dice. Some parts of this video look like they have been sped up but if you look @ his face/body its only the hands/arms that are moving super fast.
Enjoy the dice stacking :).

Did you know you can cut glass under water… with scissors?! This video from YouTube shows how it is done. I also googled it a little bit to find out why this works and here is what i found:
According to Scientific American, water causes glass to crack more easily because when a water molecule enters the crack, a reaction occurs in which a silicon-oxygen bond at the crack and an oxygen-hydrogen bond in the water are cleaved, creating two hydroxyl groups attached to silicon. As a result, the length of the crack grows by the size of one bond rupture. The water reaction reduces the energy necessary to break the silicon-oxygen bonds, thus the crack grows faster.
And now for the video:
