He climbs in and out through the missing front windshield.

Sorry. I'm obsessed.
This is the other side.

This is a modern Brazilian VW kombi bus. Probably less than ten years old.

The floor frame is pretty straight behind the front wheels.

My understanding of the VW buses made in Brazil is that they have coolant running from the front black radiator back to the engine, they have a gear shift lever between the front seats that connects to a fairly small rigid rod that runs under the floor back to the transmission. Maybe if it is an automatic transmission, that's actually a wire and not a metal rod. Not sure. There are brake lines that go back there to the brakes, and if it's a manual transmission, there is a clutch cable running back to the clutch. Other than that, there is not much of importance under that floor.

Perhaps there was a minor field repair done to get it to run, or perhaps there just wasn't any damage to those under-floor systems.

Yes, good investigating glatt.
I wondered if the throttle cable or gear selector was jammed because in the GIF/Video he was moving pretty fast for the condition, although it may have been sped up. So if they replace that missing window and patch the side door, they can apply compressed air and it will pop back into shape. :thumb:

Pretty clever GIFs

Nice find

That hurts just looking at it.

Looks like he stuck the landing after the dismount.

Too bad it was on his head.

... and on the UPside escalator. Wince!

Hummingbird
 

Everyone loves Hummingbirds... yes you do.
They are like flying jewels, so pretty, and so quick, but alas they are gone so fast.
The obvious solution is to have a pet hummingbird, but they are hard to keep in captivity because of their needs.
And the truth is they are savage little assholes, vicious and aggressive.
But cheer up Bunkie, here's the solution, build your own.

Cam on man. All those gifs and you just lever right there with precious little linkage?

How do you go about designing one of those? Is there a CAD program that has an animation mode so you can see how gears interact as you build up a complex system?

That wing movement in the last GIF is amazing.

However you do it, it takes 700 hours.

Heim not gonna comment on that, I know it's just your pinion.

I worked hard for that.:D

Is that Munch's The Scream on the shoulder of the right-hand figure?

When you zoom in it's a smiling face - looks more like it's supposed to be the sun

Round and round she goes... which way, nobody knows.

http://cellar.org/2017/aailllusion.gif

That's interesting--normally on this kind of image, I default to one way, but with effort can make it spin the other way. But this one doesn't look like it's going in circles to me--as soon as her face goes backward, my brain says "I know I can't see through the backs of people's heads," and she's instantly forward-facing and going the other way. She just goes left-to-right, right-to-left, never all the way around.

But if I look at just the torso... alright boobs, I can see it, them, go all the way around.

On the full silhouette one, I can see both directions, but I have a very hard time switching. On this one, I can switch directions at will.

Holy shit, I wondered if it was speeded up buy the lean tells me he was moving.

Dear god! There aren't a lot of garden snails in my neck of the woods; we have these great, revolting, disgusting, hideous things.

I can only imagine how many steel-hard teeth they have.

Kind of cool to watch...

I like the breakaway rail. That is *definitely* "making an entrance"!

Should be.

Lucky she didn't "suction cup" herself to the mat.....:)

so it only took, like, 100 years for Olympic Athletes to emulate that dance move :mg:

Imagine trying to repair this thing, especially in the field.

As a dial-up user for too many years, I always wonder about band-width or upload speeds or whatever.
Dumb question: Are all the GIF's on this page (and the other ones) always running? Do they take up download capacity continually? At what point are they shut off?

Once you download all the frames, your web browser is in charge of looping it; it doesn't keep downloading. If the browser is clever, it only plays it when you have that tab selected - but that would only affect the speed of the browser, not downloads.


That said, GIFs are one of the worse things for dial-up, as they do download automatically, while most video only downloads when you hit play.

But it does look cool. I expect to see it in a SF movie shortly.


(Perhaps even these prototypes, if the military decides the repair issue is too daunting.)

At first I thought it was just a more compact version of this:

But, then, I saw it change shape and lengthen it's footprint.
