1 TON Rubber Band Ball Drop From 2000ft!
Ashenkase18 minutes of my life that I will never get back. These "bro" videos are asinine.
Icebreaker Rescues Stuck Ship - Canadian Coast Guard
AshenkaseFYI, ships that size don't stop due to "sleep". They never stop running and someone is always on duty.
Re-Entry | A Short Film about Life and Death
AshenkaseWhy not every life in the universe across time. If there is a soul then I find it a bit silly that it should be bound to earth only.
From 0 to 200 km/h (124 mph) in 1 second
AshenkaseThat has to be a pre-determined flight path flown by the onboard computer. Flying that back at yourself manually could end up with dead person(s).
I Crashed My Plane
AshenkaseThe FAA report will be out in a year. I hope this goes to criminal charges, a complete disregard for human safety (not his).

Car Hauler Vs Amtrak train
AshenkaseLooking up at speed, especially if there was a curve could derail the train. That train was at speed and even if the engineer locked it up it would have been the same result. Another reason why the brakes might not be engaged is that the engineer ducked down into a part of his cab that is a bit more safe... remember those guys take the brunt of these types of collisions sometimes. I really feel for the poor truck driver... he sounds like his livelihood just vanished and he is realizing it.
Ok, I understand the train likely couldn't stop in time, but it sure looked like it didn't even try to slow down. Was there even a driver up front watching the tracks? It appears to be a long straight track section with excellent visibility. I would expect the train to be under full emergency braking before the impact, but it doesn't look like it is. Hmmmm.
Meteor Fireball over Eagle, ID - 7/3/21
AshenkaseSteep angle entry. It basically almost slams head on into the atmosphere. All that velocity is turned into a big bada boom.
Fire pilot makes epic drop at an extremely low level
AshenkaseI am assuming he has gear down to increase drag to slow down even more? Have never seen one of these drops with gear down like that.

Steak boiled in 300 degree butter - Korean street food
AshenkaseIts clarified butter. All that scum he took off the top was the cooked dairy coming out of the butter oil. Why he choose to season the beef with salt at the end is odd... usually salt for searing... would have added much more flavor. This is basically deep fried steak in butter oil. I sure arteries were clogged.

SpaceX Starship Test Flight | SN10 sticks the landing
AshenkaseCheck out Scott Manley's breakdown of the landing. There where 2 wee little landing legs that did not lock, which meant the skirt hit the ground on the hard bounce. Damage happened, leaks ensued, kablooey.

Landing rockets is hard. Really hard. Make your brain hurt from thinking hard. I wonder what actually happened? Sounds like the post-landing fuel venting--created a pool of explosive vapor and stuff came in contact with an ignition source?
Next time it lands, I'm sure we'll see it bathed in a fine aqueous mist.
