Changing Tires While Driving on Two Wheels
I'm not sure what the technical term for it is. Independent wheel drivetrain something or another. I've only ever seen or heard of it on off-roading vehicles but the concept is that the system senses when a wheel is no longer in contact with a surface and will then stop powering that particular wheel and instead divert the power to the ones still in contact with the ground. It's a pretty cool idea but I never would have guessed to see it on a Hyundai sedan. I'm fairly certain that's not a stock option on that model...
What kind of drive is this? Neither the front nor back wheel that are up are turning?
Extreme Window Cleaning
I was more shocked by how much I enjoyed that song by the end of the clip...
Really Awesome Halloween Costume ideas using an iPhone app
That's pretty cool, but not really costume ideas. Not really costumes at all, just interesting t-shirts.
Trail Runner Meets Grizzly

In hindsight I don't think runnign was the best thing for him to do here. Thankfully it worked this time but doesn't running potentially activate the bears predator instinct and cause him to give chase?
I think if you're that close to the bear and already moving at that kind of speed when you first see it you're probably better off just booking it like this guy did.
Why is it Dark at Night (or, Why ISN'T it Dark at Night)?
>> ^messenger:
Because the light has shifted from visible through infrared to microwave due to the expansion of the universe since the Big Bang, 1100 times stretched, according to RFlag's link starting at around 3:11.>> ^SWBStX:
So maybe I'm missing something obvious that should answer this question but I'll ask it anyway. So if the night sky should be light everywhere we look, and the reason it isn't is because it's outside our visible spectrum, why do the pictures taken using an infrared camera still show darkness behind the stars it can see? Why isn't the CBR showing up brightly on the infrared pictures?
Ah, clearly I should have checked out that link. Thanks! Time for a microwave camera!

Perhaps not, but they certainly seem to be ballsy enough

That was an expensive trick! I wonder what the total value of all that currency would be? Very impressive too

Her voice is just haunting...
The Black Keys - Little Black Submarines
A little disappointed in this actually. They cut the song short from the album version by about a minute. Not sure why they'd do that for their "official" music video. This is my favorite song from the album and it just doesn't have the same feel.

This is too amazing for words
49 quadrocopters in the night sky
That's pretty cool... but it's not 50 quadrocopters. Try me again when you've made it 50

This is really amazing! Although I'm a little confused about why she's wearing a dress while doing this
One of the Most Exciting Moments in eSports History
DOTA stands for Defense of the Ancients. It was originally a Warcraft 3 mod that has been remade by Valve into it's own stand alone game, now called DOTA2. It's technically still in Beta despite this being the second year they've had the International tournament with the $1 million prize to the top team.
The team who is winning is "Na Vi". This clip shows their opponent "iG" sweeping around to pull off what is called a "smoke gank" and which they seem to have set up perfectly. However one character on Na Vi's team is able to use one of his abilities to disable most of the other team giving his teammate time to steal a key ability from the other team and turn around a fight that should have been devastating.
It's a little hard to explain and even harder to tell what is going on if you don't know anything about the game. But what you should know is that it was an amazing turn around at a crucial moment on one of esports' biggest stages. It would be kinda like intercepting a touchdown pass from your opponent to then run it back for your own score in American football. Perhaps something like one or two goals in stoppage time to comeback and win a football(soccer) game.
This post has gone on far too long, check out Dota2 if you're interested in finding an excellent team oriented PC online game.
