These guys are so strong that they can walk invisible walls in the air
As
far as I can tell, I don't think there's an invisible wall where this
guy is pushing his legs off of to make it look like he's walking on thin
air. But I can't be sure though because I assume once you get as strong
as these guys, you unlock all sorts of secret life powers. I mean these tricks are unreal.
A car crash has never looked as beautiful as in this music video
Manchester Orchestra's drummer Timothy Very sent us the band's music video for Simple Math,
the single that gives its title to their third album. It's from 2011,

This short with Alan Rickman just destroyed one of my childhood memories
I don't know if the short Dust—written and directed by Ben Ockrent and Jake Russell—is a fairy tale or a horror tale. Let's
just say that I didn't expect the end at all. This is very disturbing
but worth watching, and not only because I love Alan Rickman in the role
of... of... you just watch and see.

It sounds like something out of an episode of Spooks:
Researchers have discovered a way to use simple touch to decode the
cryptography keys that are intended to secure your information. It's as

while it's working.
The First Automata Trailer Is Finally Out and It Looks Spectacular
If Blade Runner and I, Robot gave birth to a new movie starring a bald Antonio Banderas, it would look just like Automata, the latest vision of our inevitably dystopian future.
That future—or at least the way director Gabe Ibรกรฑez has imagined
it—also looks pretty dang awesome. Well, spectacular is probably a
better…
Stop Pretending There's a Line Dividing Politics and Tech

This Dangerous-Looking Dog Tag Is Actually a Handy Multi-Tool

Lego's Amazing New HQ Is Finally Underway (And You Can Build Your Own)
Lego
maniacs have another pilgrimage destination to add to their list: The
brand's new "experience center" broke ground in Billund, Denmark
yesterday. As you'd expect, the building itself looks like it's
constructed from a pile of Legos. And thanks to a new Lego Architecture
kit, you can start building your own…
Virtually no one starts smoking after age 26
There's
a reason the government has had to severely restrict cigarette
advertising (and smoking in general) to minors: they're the only ones
still gullible enough to think smoking is a good idea. According to the
Surgeon General's office, anyone over the age of 26 has a better chance
of being mugged by a great white…
Our Hot, Bright Cities Are Spawning Gigantic Spiders
File this one under: Oh HELL no. While we know that our ever-industrializing lifestyles make survival tough for animals like birds and mountain lions,
in at least one case urbanization is helping a species to thrive.
Thanks to the artificial conditions we create, our cities are growing
ultrafertile megaspiders.
Libra: The 21st Century (Libertarian) Space Colony

How Twitter Could Beat the Trolls, And Why It Won’t
Twitter
has a troll problem. It has from the beginning, really. But it's been
particularly loud this month, thrown into sharp relief with the sickening attacks on Robin Williams' grieving daughter, Zelda. Twitter's response has been tepid at best—and as far as squashing trolls goes, it's the most we can ever expect.
