What the hell is that shit?!

Was that from the "Just How Hard Can We Make The Simplest Fucking Thing On Earth" series? Hell, the guy coulda worked a Rube Goldberg machine in there, without raising the difficulty anymore.

Amateurs, pfft.

I could have included that info, I guess...Sorry.

Here's the same crash, in slow motion. In a rough count, I count fourteen-sixteen times the top and bottom of that car swap places, barrel rolls and endovers combined.

There's probably some rule that they pick up all the debris to prevent others from hitting it and also wiping out. That would be a sucky job that would take a couple days. A debris field at least half a mile long and a hundred yards wide.

You'd need to do it systematically to make sure you got everything. Maybe set out cones and just go back and forth with a pickup truck and a couple of guys, moving the cones 10 feet each time you finish a row.

And then you have to replace the divots.

The vid does the 'splaining:



Also, that guy said the ball was "a foot" back from the post...Ain't you Brits on this here new-fangled "Metric System"?

His head was restrained in the car, so during all those rolls, it didn't snap around and break his neck. I'm surprised his brain didn't get literally scrambled though. I'd think flipping at that speed, his brain would turn to jello inside his skull.




cool video.

UNLIKE the egg, the guy's head is only rotating (roughly) in one direction. the egg REVERSES direction several times, and at high speed. it's that reversing that shears the liquid from the shell causing the mixing.

Whatever that guy's head was doing, I guarantee, it was doing it "roughly".

Martin Maldonado knocks the hide off the ball. Literally.

Look at it: (watch the third baseman's expression when he picks up the ball for the throw to first, "WTF?")



Read about it.

re cover off the ball, that was priceless! I've heard that phrase a thousand times, and the announcers, for once, get to use their hyperbole in a factual way. Never before, and almost certainly, never again. pretty amazing.

from GrindTV

Guy named Bill Harmon caught a new S.Dakota state record paddlefish.

127 pounds, 6 ounces!! Beat the old record by like 7 pounds. Took him four tries to get it into the boat.

It took four attempts, but Harmon and his friend Justin Bryan finally pulled the whopper of a paddlefish into the boat, where they admired it for a couple of seconds before Harmon spoke:

“Now there is a big %$#@*&^* fish.”
