Most Insane Footage Yet From The China Explosion

dag says...

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)

When he's going down the stairs and showing the occasional shot of the explosion, it reminds me of a found footage movie. Maybe Cloverfield.

Bull vs Idiot

Asmo says...

Yup, but if you have to go out, spit in the bastards eye (or in this case, toss him in the air and throw him down a set of stairs) before you do.

I don't think the guys neck is broken, he raises his head after hitting the ground. (I feel like I'm doing the "I'm not a doctor..." thing from a bad infomercial..=)

Drummers on Ringo Starr

Retroboy says...

Insightful. The musicians walking us through his style provided some perspective that I just wouldn't have thought about otherwise. Loved the "sloppy falling down the stairs" metaphor.

Real Time with Bill Maher: The Duggars

newtboy says...

If only the Japanese would get on with making cheap robot servants, the problem of restricting population will be solved. What ever happened to Asimo? It was climbing stairs well over a decade ago, why isn't it changing grandpa's depends yet?

Firstly, people who worry about other people's sexual attraction to human adult non-relatives usually have sexual problems of their own. Therefore, they disqualify themselves to be taken seriously at that debate. The more you argue against the LGBT community, the more likely you are to be sexually harmful.

Secondly, dude, I'm going to have to disagree with you here. I live in a country that faces a future where a majority of the population is senior citizens because we made it to expensive and impractical to even have children. I wish my government could do more to encourage women to have children and support them raising them without sacrificing their careers. Right now, my best hope for a nation that isn't dominated by senior citizens is immigration.
I'm less worried about global overpopulation in the west because we have (or at least should have) access to birth control.
The only people in the west that are willing to have more than a handful of kids are the religious nutjobs and the mentally questionable/ill. Here's something most women know and agree on:
Vaginas aren't clowncars.

Swedish cops show NYPD how to subdue people w/ hurting them

Mordhaus says...

When you have multiple law schools packed to the brim and pumping out new lawyers every year, you have to expect that they are going to be looking for work once they hit the street.

If you have local tv, watch it during the day sometime. Every other commercial is a law office ad promoting themselves. Hurt in an accident, call me. Fall down some stairs at work, call me. Neighbor's dog humps yours, call me.

If we had a reasonable law on the books that made frivolous lawsuits riskier for the plaintiffs, there would be a cry from lawyers comparable to the mythical one from Alderaan. The sad thing is, we are so overflowing with lawyers that in many cases they cannot find jobs, but the schools still have waiting lists to get in.

MilkmanDan said:

I find the issue of "stepping on NYPD toes" to be trivial and unimportant. What is much more critical is that American laws and culture would, today, tend to discourage bystanders from stepping in and helping as these Swedes did.

Ask any lawyer, and they'll tell you to turn around and walk the other way, because nothing good can come from intervening, and/or you'll just be opening yourself up to lawsuits. I consider that to be a great failing in the direction that America has taken since I was young (80s) and especially before then. Modern America sure seems like a much more litigious, narcissistic, and entitled place than it used to be.

Pedestrian bridge is built for safety

Bruti79 says...

It's amazing the thought process here. They had to take those wires down, drill two holes through the stairs, and then run them though. Wouldn't it have been easier just to guide the wires around the structure when they were putting them back up?

Guy Has Seizure While Skydiving

AeroMechanical says...

I dunno, if he really, really wanted to skydive, went to his doctor and his doctor said it should be okay, I don't think there is anything wrong with that. If he thought the reward was worth the risk (which he did research) more power to him. Hell, he could seize walking up a flight of stairs or leaning on railing admiring a view and fall to his death. Sure, in this case, it didn't work out, but I admire him for trying.

The Oath of Fëanor

gorillaman says...

When Morgoth in that day of doom
had slain the trees and filled with gloom
the shining land of Valinor,
there Fëanor and his sons then swore
the mighty oath upon the hill
of tower-crownéd Tún, that still
wrought wars and sorrow in the world.
From darkling seas the fogs unfurled
their blinding shadows grey and cold
where Glingal once had bloomed with gold
and Belthil bore its silver flowers.
The mists were mantled round the towers
of the Elves' white city by the sea.
There countless torches fitfully
did start and twinkle, as the Gnomes
were gathered to their fading homes,
and thronged the long and winding stair
that led to the wide echoing square.

There Fëanor mourned his jewels divine
the Silmarils he made. Like wine
his wild and potent words them fill;
a great host harkens deathly still.
But all he said both wild and wise,
half truth and half the fruit of lies
that Morgoth sowed in Valinor,
in other songs and other lore
recorded is. He bade them flee
from lands divine, to cross the sea,
the pathless plains, the perilous shores
where ice-infested water roars;
to follow Morgoth to the unlit earth
leaving their dwellings and olden mirth;
to go back to the Outer Lands
to wars and weeping. There their hands
they joined in vows, those kinsmen seven,
swearing beneath the stars of Heaven,
by Varda the Holy that them wrought
and bore them each with radiance fraught
and set them in the deeps to flame.
Timbrenting's holy height they name,
whereon are built the timeless halls
of Manwë Lord of Gods. Who calls
these names in witness may not break
his oath, though earth and heaven shake.

Curufin, and Celegorm the fair,
Damrod and Díriel were there,
and Cranthir dark, and Maidros tall
(whom after torment should befall),
and Maglor the mighty who like the sea
with deep voice sings yet mournfully.
'Be he friend or foe, or seed defiled
of Morgoth Bauglir, or mortal child
that in after days on earth shall dwell,
no law, nor love, nor league of hell,
nor might of Gods, nor moveless fate
shall defend him from wrath and hate
of Fëanor's sons, who takes and steals
or finding keeps the Silmarils,
the thrice-enchanted globes of light
that shine until the final night.'

Kid Gets Head Stuck In Gate

Deadrisenmortal says...

I did the same thing when i was little. i went up the stairs on the outside of the iron banister and climbed through only to get my head stuck. i yelled for help and everyone came running trying help get me unstuck but nothing worked. After giving up and getting ready to cut through the railing someone asked me how I got stuck there in the first place, I stepped through the bars and showed them. Much eye rolling then commenced.

Balls On An Escalator

Retroboy says...

Oh great now you'll make security guards sphere repeat occurrences during their rounds. Everywhere on the globe, people will stair as the number will rise and the attacks run rampant. This can only escalator even worse cause injury due to copycat attacks. This unfortunate storey will take flight, I'm certain. In any event, the tale will be moving.

P.S. expression on watcher dude's face at 00:54 - the perfect "Schwwaaaa....?"

The Newsroom's Take On Global Warming-Fact Checked

speechless says...

Did you fall down the stairs and hit your head? Are you OK?

I hope so. Though a concussion is really the only explanation for the nonsense you just wrote. Maybe you should get that checked.

Trancecoach said:

Like most of Sorkin's bloviating, this empty rhetoric is undermined by the incongruency of the climate change alarmists' own ballooning carbon footprints while attempting to use the government to impose force upon others' behavior. Until global warming alarmists themselves walk their talk (i.e., drive hybrids -- if they drive at all -- cease flying in airplanes, eat strictly vegetarian diets, have few if any children, and withdraw their consent from the worst polluter on the planet: the state), then no amount of freaking out, ranting, incentives, or attempts at policy will serve to avert the "impending catastrophe."

In China and India (where pollution is no doubt a significant problem), there are hundreds of millions of people who have far bigger concerns and more pressing problems than some remote notion of a "warming planet" or some looming "catastrophic collapse of civilization." (In fact, the same can be said for the majority of the population of the planet.)

And this is to say nothing of how ALL of the models used to support "evidence" for the case of a warming planet have ALL (not some, but ALL) been consistently undermined by serious skeptical science (PDF) while the claims of the political entity of the IPCC remain inconsistent with the data.

Since when do politicians get to decide the veracity of scientific fact?

EDIT: ALL of the climate-change alarmists' predictions, dating back to the 1980s, have all failed to come true. When this trend continues for the next few decades, there will be no shortage of "Told You So" moments that will undoubtedly be explained away by some unknown variable -- like the heat that is "hiding" in the ocean -- that, once "corrected for," will serve to further prop up this political ruse.

Insane POV Motorcycle Race Through Narrow Portuguese Streets

bremnet says...

Holy crappers... I'd not want to even walk down some of the stairs these guys are biking down after a couple of glasses of tipple. Are there a lot of mother-in-law plunges from the section around 1:40?
