Dangerous


I received this picture via email. The subject line was “Why trampolines are dangerous.” ~Thanks, Jan!

This Man Loves his Croc

The video clip at Japan Probe tells the story (in Japanese) of a Thai man who lost his wife and his job, then met a baby crocodile and bonded with him. Link ~via Gorilla Mask

LOLsaur


LOLsaur is just what it sounds like, image macros featuring dinosaurs. Rawr! http://lolsaur.com/ ~via Evil Mad Scientist Laboratories

Poor Hamster

An animated song from ytmnd. A silly, sadistic, somewhat gory song. Poor hamster, poor hamster, why must your life be so tough? Link ~via b3ta

License to Rant

License to Rant is a blog of license plates, particularly vanity plates that cause you to scratch your head and wonder what they were thinking. This one was inspired by the wedding scene in The Princess Bride. Others are so hard to decipher that commenters leave their best guess. Link ~via Grow~A~Brain

This Cat Should Have Been a Dog


(Shoutfile link)

This cat apparently didn’t read the cat manual. At least the page that states cats do not learn tricks. ~via Unique Daily

People with High IQs

You may have guessed that Sir Isaac Newton and Stephen Hawking have high IQs, but some of these may surprise you. This post gives some background on IQ (Intelligence Quotient) and has a list of people alive today with high IQs and estimated IQs of people from history. Link ~via the Presurfer

Robo Rucksack

Six-year-old James Scowcroft came up with the idea of a talking schoolbag, which can remind students of the things they need to pack.
James devised his Robo Rucksack, with flashing antenna and five buttons to allow the owner to pre-record messages, as part of a museum competition.

James's bag was judged the best and turned into reality by design firm Innovate.

James said he is keen to keep on inventing in the future, with a rucksack that helps with the cleaning next on his list, along with a time machine to allow him to see the way his mum looked "in the old days".

The Museum of Science and Industry in Manchester, England sponsored the competition. I want two, as I repeat myself too many times about packing a schoolbag every morning! Link ~via Arbroath

Domino Village

The new ad for Guiness stout will debut on TV tonight, but is available on the net already. It shows the biggest domino fall you can imagine.
Shot in an Argentinian mountainside village, it features a game of dominoes which escalates to include suitcases, tyres, oil drums, fridges, wardrobes and cars.

Proving that "Good Things Come to Those Who Wait", it culminates with the pages of 10,000 books flipping open to create a giant pint of Guinness.

The advert, part of a £10 million campaign, was directed by Nicolai Fuglsig, who was behind the Sony Bravia "balls" commercial.

Iceberg Breaks Up


(Live Leak link)

If someone told me the local iceberg was collapsing, I would be out there with the crowd watching it. This was recorded in Argentina. The show gets more intense toward the end. ~via Ursi’s Blog

Update: I did a little digging, and this has been identified as the Perito Moreno Glacier {wiki} in Los Glaciares National Park. The breakup is a natural phenomena that can be forecasted, but it’s not regular, happening every one to ten years. It's a big tourist attraction.

These Rocks Rock!


wedged between the walls of a mountain crevice in norway is a rock called kjeragbolten. the rock is often stood on by tourists for a crafty photograph whilst attempting not to look down at the 3000ft+ drop. i’m assuming the sheep/goat in the picture below was a local.

Kjeragbolten is just one of a collection of "rocks that rock" today at deputy dog. http://deputy-dog.com/2007/11/06/these-rocks-rock/

Cat Loves His Horse

This is cute, but you need to be warned about music that may or may not be to your taste. -via Arbroath

The Jerry Seinfeld Dictionary of Terms and Phrases

You can just picture Jerry Seinfeld explaining each of these terms. Here are just a few:
Caught in a Pick at the Light - when a person is waiting in their car at a traffic light and decides to scratch the outside of their nose, where it appears (to their date, who just happens to be in the car or cab next to them) that they are actually picking their nose

Head-First Parker - 1) a person who tries to pull into a parking space head first as opposed to backing into the space 2) a person who pulls into a parking space head first with the intention of screwing someone else out of the space

Level Jumping (on a friendship) - when casual acquaintances attempt to become better friends with certain acquaintances (ex. asking an acquaintance to be a godparent to one's child/children)

There are enough definitions here to keep you busy for quite a while. Link -via the Presurfer

Hossfly V8 Barstool


A barstool powered by a V8 engine? Sounds dangerous, but the top speed is 25 miles per hour. Manufactured by California Boss Hoss, these were seen at the SEMA car show in Las Vegas last week. You can buy a kit to build your own for about $8,000, engine not included. Link to story. Link to video. -via Unique Daily
