Yes... coming from a guy who makes his living in computer graphics, please make more models and practical effects!

That was great. Keep thinking about it, it is possible... no tricks!

Yeah, never understood this taboo. Most people got the idea from somewhere that it's bad manners. 'Course, I think we should all be talking politics and religion at the workplace as well...

Fascinating. A little short on examples, though...

Hmm. 4/5 of those solutions were pretty disappointing. Balloons, bag of styrofoam, parachute, and... drone airlift
One good tip on the straws one though: don't aim the shock-absorbing straws in at your egg!

As I understand it, the visual cortex does for real start adopting this other sensory input as if it were coming from the eyes and put together a "fuzzy" representation of the world in your brain. Our brains take what they can get and work with it. Neuroplasticity FTW.

Bad title. Actually, this video will explain social media outrage fads in 7 minutes.

I didn't wonder either, but I enjoyed the explanation nonetheless!

Do we...?

Boo yah!
Thank you... finally!

I keep waiting for one of these guys to dethrone the blue whale (unlikely, I know): Dreadnoughtus was nowhere close. About half the mass. The other tantalizing "guesses" he mentions could be in the ballpark, but who knows with so little to go on.
Awesome find!

Hmm.
Yeah, I don't get it either, do you have to be there in person to get the effect? Isn't this what mirrors are supposed to do?

Exactly. My provisional assent for string theory just went out the window...

^ The estimated date they gave for the sun melting Earth's crust is 500 million years hence. That's sooner than a billion. And I didn't know about that one...

In 2010, we discovered our first (and only) trojan asteroid for sun-earth at L4. I'm surprised the video didn't mention it.
