If you told me this was a Zach Galifianakis sketch I would've believed you, because it's hard to believe Michael is a real person and that this actually happened. I mean, I just watched it and I'm still not entirely sure Michael is a real person. Keep going for the full video.
In case you're wondering, yes, of course this is better than Peter Jackson's adaptation. How could it not be with a fraction of the budget and the might of 90's Soviet filmmaking? Hollywood should be thankful it never got a full international release because it would've swept the Academy Awards and Peter Jackson probably would've quit the business entirely when he realized he could never come close to this achievement. Keep going for the full "movie" which was broken into two parts because obviously its epic scale couldn't be contained in a single video. There aren't any subtitles, but you can use YouTube's auto-translated subtitles which sort of get the job done.
I was already impressed before just watching them but now I'm truly astounded. Maybe it's just a trick of the camera, but it's unbelievable how close they're flying to each other. It's crazy to imagine this level of skill and courage is being wasted to basically put on airplane dance shows. Keep going for the full video.
There are a lot of words here. A lot of them big. As far as I can tell they put a bunch of stuff in a monkey, made the monkey move a ball around, analyzed how the movements matched up with its neural activity, and then created a pong game that was controlled by said neural activity. Assuming what we're seeing is real, this is pretty remarkable. I'm talking, of course, about this macaque's ability to operate a joystick while drinking a banana smoothie. Keep going for the full video. The first couple minutes are the "training" and then the MindPong game starts around 2:15.
I can only imagine the kind of teasing this bear is going to get after its friends see this video. Being chased off by a dog is bad enough, but two tiny terriers named Squirt and Mei Mei? I mean, better get used to wedgies, buddy. Keep going for the full video.
Not only does it make the sandwich, it makes the thing that makes the sandwich. The next logical step is to get the 3D printer to print and assemble another 3D printer and then convert that 3D printer into a sandwich-making machine. Keep going for videos of the Functgraph in action; including making a sandwich, folding clothes, and assembling a toy car.
To be fair, it does look like an animal. An animal in the shape of a flaky European pastry. You know, those kinds of animals. You see them all the time at the zoo. In the food court. Where bread and pastries are sold. Because it looks like a croissant.
The robot can place 2,000 threads from up to 10 different sneaker yarns in one upper section of the shoe. It sounds great, but so far the resulting shoes do not look durable at all. It seems like you might get better results by just gluing a sole onto a sock. It wouldn't look nearly as cool, but it probably also wouldn't fall apart after a walk down the block. Keep going for some more shots as well as the promo video.
Well this is awkward. *zips up pants* But, I mean... *unzips pants* Keep going for some more pictures, some internet reactions, as well as the unmasking segment from Japanese TV show Getsuyou Kara Yofukashi.
The song is clearly designed to be difficult and you can tell because it doesn't sound particularly good. I mean, just watching the streamer gave me carpal tunnel. No, wait, it was all the masturbating. Quarantine has not been treating me well... Keep going for the full video and CarnyJared's reaction, as well as the creator's introduction video of Soulless 6 from April 1st, 2011.
Pretty accurate, but the only thing I ever thought about when I was working retail was how much I wanted to quit and/or murder every single person I had to deal with. Turns out I wasn't designed for face-to-face interaction and typing away in a basement suits me much better. Keep going for Part 2.
Here's the original Josh Swain's Reddit post organizing the event. And here's a blog post from an attendee of the Josh fight as well as another post documenting some of the many Josh variants that showed up. Eventually the Supreme Josh was crowned, and it was 4-year-old Little Josh (though his last name isn't technically Swain so I don't know how valid is claim to the throne is):
The event ultimately raised around $8,000 for a children's hospital as well as a bunch of donations for a local food bank. My only complaint is that they settled the battle with pool noodles instead of having an actual fight to the death Highlander-style. Now 4-year-old Josh only has the power of a 4-year-old, instead of the power of hundreds of dead Josh's. Keep going for a livestream from the event.
If you don't want to watch the video I can summarize it: water sprays around. And, uh, that's about it. Also, this guy has absolutely no idea how to load a dishwasher and by just watching him do it my girlfriend started yelling at me. Keep going for the full video. Yes, you probably already know what's going on in there but now you'll know for sure.
It's pretty surreal seeing somebody casually riding a hoverboard down the street as if they're not, ya know, riding a godamn hoverboard. I don't know what the proper reaction would be, but probably something along the lines of looking around while repeatedly exclaiming, "Holy shit I'm on a hoverboard!" Keep going for Omni Hoverboards' demo video.
