The Tree That Fell Up

(YouTube link)

A tree uprooted and fell over in the Paul Firbas’ backyard due to a hurricane. He called in a friend with a chainsaw to dismantle the tree. The friend takes all the branches off, then starts cutting the trunk in lengths from the top of the tree. In this sequence, he hits the sweet spot where the weight at the top of the trunk is suddenly less than the weight of the root ball. It’s all okay now! -via Daily Picks and Flicks

I remember programs that made music with the Commodore 64 drive. The wreaked havoc on the heads and could not be re-aligned with software so they had to be brought in for repair.

I saw this earlier today, and have spent the WHOLE AFTERNOON looking at different computer parts playing music. My favourite so far is two stepper motors playing Liszt's Hungarian Rhapsody No. 2:
