Fast shooting archer-girl. Legolas may have some competition.

So here's video games 2-3 years from now; do fullscreen (audio is NSFW):

Floating Cube - not what you expect!

[Empath]

EZO, your post on pendulums has been given its own thread.

It's an 11 lb robot that can jump 30'.

You ever get the feeling that this is what's going on at the other end of some forum posts? Not just CPF either... It's good to have moderators.

Most people think this was about a video game but I'm not sure..... (I know it's old, but still 'fun' to watch)

...I know it says German kid... but I keep hearing French!

[Johnbeck180]

I swear I thought the kid was going to stroke out about half way through.

[egrep]

The point of my posting was not the video. This is NOT AN INTERESTING VIDEO FIND. IT'S OLD! (egrep generally bashes his keyboard and screams in French)

The point was the point. That point is missed. Good thing we have Moderators.

The mods just wanted to see you go apesh*t on your keyboard..

The story behind that vid: The kid is indeed German, a "video comic" who would post skits and commentary with some success. The above vid is his most famous bit; it's making fun of people who take games too seriously (the game he's playing is Unreal Tournament 2004)

Dog cries at reunion with returning soldier.

3D Evolving Fractal Sphere

(Turn off HD if video stutters)
(Also, consider watching in full screen HD (on Vimeo) if you have the bandwidth.)

2009 commercial from Egyptian cheese manufacturer Panda

music: "True Love Ways" by Buddy Holly



This group of humorous, award-winning, rather subversive commercials is an interesting peek into the Egyptian psyche in pre - Arab Spring Egypt under Mubarak, circa 2009. “Buy our cheese, or else!” Think, Angry Panda = Egyptian Military Generals. In Egypt, the Military has extensive business interests in a wide range of industries, including foodstuffs. This is not likely to change anytime soon.
Just you know why.

A peek into the mind of Charlie Sheen. (Set to Katy Perry's E.T. song.)

Wow! That was awesome.

[EZO]

Wow! That was awesome.

Isn't it! It's gotta' be the most astonishing BASE jumping footage I've seen and beautifully crafted. Loved the Fredrik soundtrack. (White on White)

[EZO]

This newsreel footage of the Titanic would have been shown in cinemas (without the music) at the time of the disaster. Includes footage of the vessel leaving Belfast Lough for Southampton, April 2, 1912.



EDIT: Here's another interesting Titanic video with some great archival images.

Toroidal Vortices

A toroidal vortex, also called a vortex ring is a region of rotating fluid moving through the same or different fluid where the flow pattern takes on a toroidal (doughnut) shape.

Those dolphin bubbles were amazing, Ezo.

If Microsoft made a version of Google's Project Glass eyewear. Are you sure you want to delete this banana?

That was hilarious PhotonWrangler!......and it felt all too plausible! Here's an interesting take on Project Glass eyewear that gives one pause for thought and also seems all too plausible.

Yikes! I need a pop-up blocker for my Google glasses!

OK, so I'm on record as not approving of posting viral video campaigns on CPF but this teaser looks just SO cool. Not much info out there about this yet but it was shot on a Canon 5D MK II.

What life behind the LAPD badge used to be like during the 1970's



Notice the old MAG's? They seem pretty bright even then.

HID at 3:35!

Woman trains duck to play fetch

Woman trains duck to play fetch

Considering that ducks and geese are surprisingly stupid creatures, that's one helluva achievement that woman pulled off.

A Swarm of Nano Quadrotors

This is very interesting and at the same time kind of scary.
It's not hard to imagine hundreds of these flying in a weaponized swarm one day in the not too distant future.
And only 20 of them sound like an angry swarm of bees!
