Ostensibly, the Rinser toothbrush from Amron-Oral is designed to help you rinse your mouth. But it may also suddenly shoot water into your face when you're too sleepy to think clearly. The Rinser comes with replacement heads so that you don't have to buy a new handle when a set of bristles wears out. Watch a video of it at the link.

This isn't just some guy in an ill-fitting Spider-Man suit. He must be the real Spider-Man because he fights convincing battles with criminals before dropping down to one knee and proposing marriage.

No doubt Peter and his bride will have a long, happy, stress-free marriage together.

YouTube user onemeeeliondollars spent only about one hundred dollars to make a glowing 250-square foot kite. He placed LEDs in helium-filled balloons and attached them to a lightweight frame. When he was done, he released Mario to float across the sky. Watch a video about the project at the link -- especially the cop's reaction at the end.

Once it was a competitive sport practiced only by lawyers, but now everyone can chase after ambulances. The Fair Oaks Volunteer Fire and Rescue Company in northern Virginia raises money by challenging people to pursue one of its ambulances:

The run was launched by local attorney Hana Brilliant three years ago when she was president of the company, and helps purchase actual fire trucks and ambulances for the station.

“I got tired of all the ambulance chasing jokes around the firehouse,” Brilliant said, “so I decided to use it to the Fire Department’s benefit.”

It’s properly timed and organized, and last year nearly 200 runners raised $7,000.

In 1967, Larry Richardson saw San Francisco's Golden Gate Bridge as he headed to Vietnam:

The story began in the dead of night in February 1969, when Larry was on a troop bus on his way to deployment. Jolted awake, he caught a glimpse of one of the towers of the Golden Gate Bridge. The image stuck with the kid from Kansas, who was headed for the exotic world of the Mekong Delta.

"Jungles and swamps. Rice paddies," he said. "The Golden Gate Bridge was one of the last major things I saw from the states for a long time. It was home, you know."

He never forgot that moment or what the bridge meant to him. So, decades later, Richardson decided to build a model on his farm in Mulvane, Kansas:

Although Richardson, 63, says he built his bridge on his farm on a whim, this is no coffee-table model. It is 150 feet long and wide enough to fit an automobile. He used 97 1/2 tons of concrete, which he hand-mixed in a wheelbarrow. Progress was slow because he kept wearing out the hoes he used to turn the mixture. [...]

In all, it took 11 years, cost $4,000 and was finished in 2002, making it just 10 years old compared with the Golden Gate's 75.

The Iron Throne from Game of Thrones is not designed in accordance with modern ergonomics. People have even been known to cut themselves on the thousand swords that were used to make it. Still, everyone seems to want it and is willing to pay enormous costs to get it. Specifically, that's $30,000 plus shipping.
