Sailing camera with Hand-Eye coordination win!

jmd says...

meh, I'm gonna be a debby downer and downplay the catch to luck, he was able to get his hand in contact with the camera where its rotation and grip helped pocket it into his hand. Had it been rotating the other way it would surly be water logged now.

Why Are Bad Words Bad?

chingalera says...

*promote a subject nearer and dearer to my potty-mouth than I'd care to remind some of the older motherfuckers around here about how hard my personal experience of mob-ass-fucking has been to overcome here on the Videosift.

Praise Eris, the sorry motherfuckers who had it out for me are AWOL or STFU, and I remain intact, energized, and more formidable than ever.

A legend in my own mind and life is good, Lilithia, you are the most beautiful person on the planet and when you let ANYONE tell you otherwise, do so with a death-grip on that pair of mincey balls they're sportin'!

This propaganda is playing all over youtube

Sagemind says...

This video is not interested in giving facts. Just slandering an entire people based on a few instances. Honestly it's very hard to tell what's true. I remember the Propagandist "facts" flowing to us from way back, but I have no idea where that information stemmed from.

Today we have the internet, and we can question the tripe that is fed to us.
Enemies are made. Is the US, creating/manufacturing their own enemies? It pretty much looks like it. The US doesn't operate in a live and let live scenario.
It operates on a "slander everyone till it can get what I want basis, and if that doesn't work, manufacture stories and back counties and people into corners till they backlash and then pretend they are innocent of any wrong doing" kind of way.

It's not the people of the US, it's the people in power and that pull those strings and control the military. The problem now, is they have pulled too many strings, and things are starting to come unwound. Backing off now is a sign of weakness and they open themselves up to retaliation. But instead of backing us slowly, they hold on tighter.

Girls Are Assholes

newtboy says...

Sweet zombie Jebus, a lot of you people need to get a sense of humor. Those upset at this video need to take a good look at themselves and get a grip, it's a f**king joke...based on the reality that women are nearly as focused solely on physical attractiveness as men are, even though they usually try hard to deny it and often degrade men for doing it.

CNN on Toronto City Mayor, Rob Ford

messenger says...

It's a thing now, and I am fully within its grip. I live in Toronto and I have vowed to vote for Rob Ford in every election I'm eligible to vote for him, just for the entertainment value he gives me, which far outweighs any harm he may cause me as my mayor/MPP/MP/Prime Minister.

Insane Tankslap Recovery

Chairman_woo says...

That's not a tank slapper that's a high-side!

A tank slapper is when the bars repeatedly flick violently from side to side due to a resonant oscillation
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LZ1srcQMa_0
(for reference: off the brakes, don't fight the bars and accelerate gently out of it before changing your underwear)

This video however was a high-side: You accelerate too hard exiting a corner causing the rear to break traction and slide. When you come off the power this makes the rear wheel grip again suddenly causing the bike to violently flick back into line and throwing you up and out of the seat (and usually off the bike all together). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5J4fdc_G2cA

Who says motorcycles are dangerous eh?

The Amazing 8-bit Corset

chingalera says...

Hey atara, I know for a fact you can get this sound in a bra-You have to order some of those digital chip units pre-recorded with the sound you want and simply incorporate the small unit into a brazier. I'd place the unit where, when you squeezed those plums together, the button was there where your fingers have to grip'em! *Shhpriiiiiink!
Welcome to 2013, totally doable.

DAMN! This is an entire infomercial!
..don't know what I just watched, but I'll have two of each.

Elections are a sham? Two Party System a con job?

artician says...

I really believe that was Obama's main problem. I hate the guy now for his track-record, but I feel like he was really a naive idealist. I think once an individual becomes president, they're sat down in a little room and told how shit really works, and I think there's such scary shit in there that:
A) it's clear there's nothing they can do to change it
B) if they try to change it there will be a unified front that will effectively smear them
C) if they try to call out the unified front and how things "really work", the unified front will effectively smear them
D) (not likely, but): they're told straight up from the "real authority" in the US that if they have X% of influence on Y# of specific topics, and if they contradict the authoritative interests they'll be outright disposed of.
Don't feel like "D" is realistic, but at this point I wouldn't put anything past the people who've clearly had an iron grip on the US for some time now.

I wonder if American presidential nominees are ever surprised to discover how little they are actually able to accomplish once in office?

Woman thinks all postal workers are after her

Chairman_woo says...

^ Just to be clear people with Schizophrenia and other psychotic conditions do have an elevated risk of committing violent acts. It's about 20% of pre diagnosed patients and around 9% of post treatment/diagnosis patients. As opposed to around 1-2% of the "normal" population.

The only big exception to this is in hospital itself where it can rise as high as 50%, however this is pretty well understood to be a product of the environment and circumstances (i.e. you are forcibly being held against your will). It's also one of the reasons you managed to evoke such hostility from me, the idea that people should just be committed/sectioned because they appear somewhat unstable is one that causes a great deal more harm that good.
There are people that are a genuine danger to themselves and or others when in the grips of an "episode", such people are why mental health sections exist, however extreme care and attention must be applied when considering someone who has yet to commit an "index offence".

If she's attacked people (or herself) before when displaying the same symptoms fine, if she has a history of refusing reasonable treatment fine, if she goes and attacks someone fine. But you can't just go around locking people up because they behave strangely. For all we know this lady has never hurt anyone and is not likely to do so, you can't make the kind of judgements your making without fully understanding the patient and the nature of their condition.
There are people I work with you'd instantly label as crazy and possibly dangerous. One guy has a trait of sometimes staring hard at you (esp strangers) while talking intensely under his breath to himself. If you saw him doing that to you and you'd never met him you'd probably shit yourself a bit (I know I did) but the dude is about as gentle as they come! He'd only ever act violently if you cornered him while he was confused and even then probably not. (never been a problem in the 2 years I worked with him)

I'm not saying this lady definitely isn't in any way dangerous, or even that it might not be better to taker her in under a section. I'm simply saying that making assumptions like that is extremely damaging both to the sufferers and to our ability to understand and help them.

Now the whole Gay/Lesbian/Transgender thing has started to become a normal part of our culture mental health is the perhaps one of the last great bullshit taboos left.

Their not crazies, THEIR FUCKING PEOPLE!!!

And I know this because I've yet to meet a truly "sane" human in my life.
