Real Life “Up”

National Geographic apparently did a special last year for a new program, “How Hard Can it Be?”. Here’s some raw footage where they life a house with over 300 weather balloons!

BP Spill

Apparently the Gulf oil spill isn’t the only thing BP is incompetent with:

I think that would be a somewhat accurate description.

Google Maps UFO

There has been an UFO sighting in the UK on Google maps. (Hint: Look up once you’re in street view)

First Person Tetris

If you’re of the queasy persuasion, this game may not be for you. A rather interesting “spin” on the old classic if you’re up for the challenge!

What You See Isn’t Real

I know green screens are used in movies fairly frequently, but this is just impressive. I would have never guessed that the majority of these shots weren’t on location. I’m just impressed at how much green screens can be used these days and studios’ abilities to make it look real.

Piano Stairway

I always find it interesting how music and entertainment can change a person’s perspective on a mundane task. A simple, uninteresting task can suddenly seem more appealing once an objective or reward is involved, and the video below is a perfect example.

According to social experiment 66% more people than normal chose the staircase over the escalator now that it was converted to a “piano”. Of course, one has to wonder if that amount would decrease over time if something like this was “normal”.

Stereogram Tetris

This might quite possible be the most difficult game of Tetris I have ever played. The first time I played, I was able to get a high score of 1770, although my overall high score so far is 2644. How high can you go without going cross-eyed?

Olympus Pen

I know this is another stop motion video, but I really like stop motion videos. This is another creative take on 60 years of the Olympus Pen, and just looks really cool.

Lego Millennium Falcon Stop Motion

I loved Legos as a kid, and I would probably still play with them today if I had some sitting around. Not sure if I would have had the time, creativity, or the pieces to put something like this together though.
