And Now for Something Completely *

[Ingot54 13]

I came across some interesting Youtube stuff ... just light ... new ... different. Feel free to post stuff in a similar vein.

 

[Ingot54 13]

And another ...

 

[Ingot54 13]

And ...

 

[Ingot54 13]

Of course you knew this was coming ...

These people have an extremely short future ...

You just reminded me that I want to buy and learn how to ride a unicycle.

 

Cool stuff

This guy says that when putting his kids to bed and reading them a story, he realised that "they could have been without a dad tonight."

 

I'd have to agree ... but with more ... how did someone this crazy make the decision to have kids anyway, knowing that at any time he could, through his actions, rob them of that?

I stumbled across this while reading the news this morning. Not really a cool toy such as shown previously, but I found it interesting.

These skateboarders won't bother anyone - the expected one million residents of the brand-new Chinese city of Ordos failed to show up!

 

In this video, director Charles Lanceplaine follows a group of skaters looking to try their tricks in a new and different environment -- only to discover a glittering, modern city devoid of human occupants.

The boss said to get that boat launched ... in the water ...today ... NOW!

 

So they did!

Of course there are some who try to get back to dry dock in an unorthodox way too!

Kids ... do NOT try this at home ... really ... they said that!

 

Each year in the USA about 30,000 fingers and thumbs get severed by table saws.

That's 10-a-day according to the story!

 

Now, that could be a thing of the past ...

 

... wanna bet?

What next ...

 

[Ingot54 13]

Warning - this might be boring to most viewers.

 

It is electrical theory and there are two videos ... total around 27 minutes.

 

Intriguing to me ... and maybe some energy buffs might "get it"

 

 

Is he on to something ... or is he just a theorist?

 

This probably needs someone to actually interview him and put the ideas in simpler terms.

Clearly he is not gifted at teaching - he needs assistance to organise his ideas more succinctly.

The accidental zillionaire ... maybe!

 

[Ingot54 13]

Could this power your home ... car ... locomotive ... aeroplane ..?

 

[Ingot54 13]

OK - last one for the day ... but something a bit more practical.

 

And it may save your life, if you get a bit of practice doing it and get to know how to do it well.

 

If anyone has any innovative survival goodies, feel free to post ... as the topic says ... " ...

Until the end I had no idea he was using a nunchuck! This bloke had reflexes a fraction of the time of mere mortals!

 

The vid to follow was awesome as well - lighting matchsticks tossed at him from 15 feet - most of us couldn't even see them coming, let alone swing a nunchuck to strike them at a spot where they would ignite!

 

Thanks for that experience Siuya! ... (and you too Bruce!)
