american prison warden visits the norden in norway
"Why have 'em in prison anyway?"
Well, you seemed to have missed the word "corrections" in the name of the entity you retired from. I know it's basically a euphemism, but still. It's not named the Department of Punishment.
The Antares rocket exploding at liftoff
Ya know, the use of the term "rocket science" as a euphemism for something really complicated and hard isn't a coincidence. Read up on it sometime; it's not nearly as simple as it seems.
The Antares rocket exploding at liftoff
Oh, I know there's a lot of swearing that goes on that we never hear, I just love the juxtaposition of the emotionless delivery and the huge flaming clusterfuck.
I don't know this for certain, but I think it so likely I'll just make a categorical statement: They have to push a button to transmit. There were probably quite a few literal fucks given before that button was pushed and orders relayed.
The Antares rocket exploding at liftoff
I gotta say, I love how emotionless these guys always are. Rocket blows up; not a word is said about it other than "launch teams, be advised: stay at your stations."

I'm really glad that guy isn't launching planes off a carrier. He'd shoot 'em right into the waves.
Train VS crane in Mer Rouge, LA 10/05/14
I sincerely hope that if I'm ever filming something like that, I'm not nearly so stupid sounding after the fact.
Amazing rally car crash
Given how often rally cars oversteer and then hook up again and shoot straight to the inside of the corner, I kind of think there's nowhere actually safe. Maybe the inside before the apex, but that's about it.
Model Disrobes So We Can Hear What's Underneath
I thought what she had to say was interesting, and I would've been fine with just her sitting on the stool talking. I'm not 100% sure I understand the point of the disrobing--I mean, I get it from a metaphorical standpoint, but from an actual point of view, it doesn't seem to accomplish much.
Seinfeld Wins CLIO - Rips Into Advertising
I can only hope that he's sincere, because he's always seemed like a bit of a tool to me.

16 inch gun training of an Iowa class Battleship
Holy cow, the breach on that gun is enormous. Pictures of the barrel just don't do justice to how large those things were.
Leopard’s Flying Ambush on Antelope from Tree
Damnit, Payback. That was my immediate reaction.
DEATH FROM ABOVE!
