Thief With SPOT-ON Timing In New York Subway Train.

Alexander Polli: Wingsuit Precision Target Strike

shveddy says...

http://videosift.com/video/Dude-Takes-a-Mountain-to-His-Crotch-at-120-mph-no-joke

Accidentally crashing and miraculously surviving is not really a precision target strike. There are actually a number of people who have had green stains on their suit or scraped up hands from getting too close to a tree, but none of that was really on purpose.

By the way, the fact that he hit the pole that accurately after a slalom turn is insane. Wingsuits don't turn on a dime, it's more akin to running around on ice with bowling shoes.

Man, why do you keep killing vids with 7 or so votes? 7 votes is a badge of honour, especially for the boutique vids you got happening.

personal quality control. Get's to 10 votes on one pass or it gets scraped. Feel free to re-submit it yourself I don't like videos hanging around my personal queue. I'm not sure when I started with this anal habit.. I'll have to ask the other guys in my head.

Dewey Dragonflies

BoneRemake says...

I was just working in a field where there was hundreds of them. It was weird, like I was in faery land or something, but they seemed to be all over the place, many of them together embracing in the dragonfly fuck.

I wish I could scrape my eyes like that to clean them.

The water looks exactly like trichromes do on cannabis leaf.

So you quote the convo to add something to one of your response lines even after I have been proven he is wearing regular shoes. You're pathetic. In the words of 4chan/b "Kindly, kill yourself."

You're obviously not familiar with things like momentum and weight shifting on your feet, no matter how I break it down to you. I guess you can't teach stupid people new things.

Um, not really. I don't know what kind of skates you have ever used, but you don't "wind up" skate wheels. What he is doing at the beginning is getting his step right before he launches backward. Like I said, it's a controlled fall. The end with him stumbling is due to his aforementioned backward momentum, slick shoes and a slick wet surface. Also, if they were wheels, you wouldn't hear the scraping of shoe tread on the ground as he did this either. By you'r logic, when I do my foot glides (and I stumble), then I'm wearing wheels. There actually is an art to doing this right, and it's supposed to look like you're on wheels when done correctly; otherwise, it's not a glide. This is just an extremely exaggerated glide.

As a person who has a lot of footwork focus when I dance, I can explain this.
From a stand he leans forward and slings one leg back very quickly. While the momentum is still carrying him backwards, he has to immediately bring the back leg forward, and the front leg back to keep himself moving. From that point he is pretty much in a constant falling state where the foot coming forward catching himself since the other foot must be thrown back to maintain momentum. Notice his back foot is barely getting underneath in time while the other foot has already started to be flung out. His timing is just cray good. This is also why you see him stumble at the end. His foot-speed countered momentum stopped so he ended up falling forward from his counter balance.
Hope this helps the blown brains.

Definitely wheels...You can even see him winding them up at the start before suddenly taking off. And watch again, because his "stumble" at the end is not just his momentum, you can clearly see him skating. I'm surprised people cannot see it.


"There are none so blind as those who will not see." What you claim he is doing with just shoes is, literally, impossible. As i stated, my kids have these wheeled shoes. Never mind though, I give up trying to make you open your eyes. Oh, and btw, I have a few card tricks you will believe are magic too.
Clearly you can, because you have taught yourself that physics can be denied. I'm done.

Looper - International Trailer

>> ^kceaton1:

I'll still see this as it's a Bruce Willis movie and he seems to have an O.K. streak; he hasn't ever really made/been-in a dud, similar to Harrison Ford on that front. Plus Joseph Levitt to boot, should be alright.

Air Force One?

cough Hudson Hawk cough Armageddon cough


While both those films are fairly bad, they are FAR more watchable than the true dregs of movies that have been made by people such as Uwe Boll or M. Night Shyamalan--when M.N.S. made a good show, followed by a decent one, and then proceeded to believe that he made the best films man had ever bear witness to. Plus we both know that there was an audience (and a large one for Armageddon) for BOTH of those movies and also Air Force One, @Payback; sure, they weren't me and you (or @Payback), but there are a lot of people in this world that do not ask very much from their movies.

It's when a movie lets down EVEN THEM that it is a pure and utter failure, able to be ridiculed without equal until the end of time. These are the worst films made. Of course many of the movies that DO succeed, like Prometheus right now (June 2012--for reference), can be made fun of A LOT (like Armageddon, which has been the punchline to many jokes). Why? Because, they have MASSIVE disconnects from reality or other bad writing and screenplay mechanics that they are just ridiculous when thought about with any amount of real thought and prowess in a subject dealing with the movie and it's attempt to portray reality in another light that is utterly false. As I said they appeal to the "entertainment" type audience; someone that would go see Independence Day over and over again. Not to us were we watch someone take off a helmet in a potential zero atmosphere environment "to test it out"; that is UTTER NONSENSE, no one does this in reality! This is the stuff that makes us hate those movies (and create the myriad of jokes for it as well). But, not the entertainment crowd who can enjoy a movie for what it is and suspend their connection with reality for awhile.

Granted if I were to use my "full-on" reviewing analysis of what I would include as good movies--the count of "alright" movies would plummet (for Harrison Ford and Bruce Willis). I can think of atleast 3-4 shows that Bruce has been in that I would consider failures in this light, but I know that many people beyond me DO like these movies--that is why I don't count them as failures as there remains an audience--a decently sized one--for those movies. I have to admit I have my own "cult" movie favorites that no-one likes, really, except for me and maybe a few other people I know. I also have been able to like movies for their entertainment value although I know if I treat them with reality they fall completely apart, quickly. Sometimes it's best to let your imagination rule your heart.

Same thing here. I'm just not on the end of the spectrum that enjoys those movies, if you get my drift. So, trust me, I know Bruce has his bad movies (same with Harrison Ford)--but his bad movies, so far, are better than the real dregs and bottom scraped-up leftovers that are out there. That is what I was trying to say in a lot less context--I hope this clears it up. We most likely see things fairly close or the same; I'm just giving credit to the people that DO like Hudson Hawk, Armageddon, and Air Force One.

CNBC Admits We're All Slaves To Central Bankers

bobknight33 says...

We are nearing the edge of collapse. Spending has really gone out of control. The last 3 years under Obama have been an explosion of spending. QE3 will come and debase the dollar even more. Money is noticeably worth less already from the QE1, QE2 and banks bailouts and the substantial increase in spending. . In short order we well be totally enslaved to bankers, like some countries in Europe where the lenders are dictating the terms.


Some say raise taxes. Even if one could tax every corporate and rich person there still be a drop in the bucket. Sure you might scrape up for 1 year of cash to cover government spending. Then what? everyone will be tapped out. (Penn Jillette did a podcast that was posted on th sift that addressed this aspect. I just cant find it now.)


Only through cutting spending and getting our debt down to a respectable level will turn this ship around.

Toast Will Never Be The Same - Toastieknife

rottenseed says...

I do it too but not without getting yelled at. The one thing that this video does make me cringe at is the idea of just scraping butter off the top of the stick. That's just weird to me.>> ^TheFreak:

Am I the only one who just rubs the stick of butter on the hot toast? Saves cleaning a knife too.
