What in the unholy hell of puppetry!? I won’t be getting any sleep tonight after seeing this bit of nightmare fuel – and neither will you. To prepare for their upcoming summer camp, the Canada Science and Technology Museum Science Mobile team removed a Tickle Me Elmo doll’s red fur and proceeded to tickle it. What sick bastards!

Love or hate drones, I think we can all agree that watching them get zapped with over a million volts sounds like it would be pretty entertaining. It is. YouTube science geek Tom Scott took a pair of DJI Phantom 3 drones to the University of Manchester’s High Voltage Laboratory, where they can manufacture lightning strikes over a million volts, just to see what would happen to a drone when it gets hit by lightning.

Some farmers are already using drones to monitor their crops, but researchers from Georgia Tech think they have a better solution. They have created a robot inspired by the sloth and named it Tarzan, after the way he swings from vine to vine. This machine is designed to swing over crops using its 3D-printed claws and parallel guy-wires stretched over fields, so it can take measurements and pictures of each plant with its built-in camera.

Filmmaker Devin Graham and Cinechopper got together to perform some cool trick shots using drones. Cinechopper customized the drones to carry and drop bowling balls, which allowed them to do some stuff in a bowling alley and much more. Then they took the drones outside to do things like drop basketballs through hoops, catch wiffle balls with a net, and even destroy a snowman.

I’ve never heard of the band called “The Wackids” before, but by god are they awesome. These guys took a bunch of kids toy instruments and blasted out some awesome music in the form of a cover of the classic Rage Against the Machine tune Killing in the Name.

Growing up, I spent some time with at my grandfather’s house during the summer. There were no toys, only the stuff he liked to do. That meant cards, dominos, and copious amounts of beer. That meant while he was sitting under the tree out back getting snockered, I was setting up lines of dominoes to topple. 

If you have some Coca-Cola cans, some lighters, and a few spare syringes just lying around, you can use them to make your own minigun. The question is, should you? Yes. Yes you should. Unless you hurt yourself, in which case, I do not endorse this idea at all. The Q Channel shows you how to make a rad minigun with a really cool design.

Wings? Who needs wings on a plane when you can have two greasy chicken buckets? YouTuber and supergeek Peter Sripol wanted to see if a plane could fly with KFC buckets for wings, so he set out to prove it.

These days you can pay for things in all kinds of electronic ways, but if you still find yourself with a bunch of coins, here is a fun way to sort them. The Q channel shows us how to make a coin sorting machine using just cardboard, a knife, a metal ruler, and some glue.

Get ready for your daily dose of destruction. The guys from the Hydraulic Press Channel loves crushing stuff so much that they traveled to Lillbacka Powerco in Finland to crush stuff with a powerful 360° Finn-Power hydraulic crimping machine.

It looks like we have a real life Tony Stark on our hands. Inventor Richard Browning and his team at start-up, Gravity Industries, have created the Daedalus. It is basically a special suit that turns its wearer into a flying hero. Its’ pretty fun to watch in action. 

Little kids can be both annoying and adorable. With two kids I can tell you this from experience. Sometimes they really are like tiny drunk adults with some of the things they do and say. This little girl called Rayna lives on a street where – in her little mind – a robot has come to hang out. Her dad decides to take her to meet her pal, and while she is happily unaware that the robot isn’t actually a robot, we can see at a glance that it’s actually an abandoned water heater Like most kids this little, Rayna quickly forgets her robot friend when she spies something on the ground, but not before robot gets a hug and is told he is loved.

Check out Kuma Films‘ awesome video of a Slinky fan and Slinky trick master demonstrating his impressive skills. Most of us just let our Slinkies walk down the stairs when we were kids. And they wouldn’t always do it successfully all of the time. 黃正懷 has some amazing Slinky skills.

The thing about NERF darts is, they’re designed to be safe. You can unload them on friends without having to worry about any serious injury, but what happens when you fire a NERF dart from an air cannon?

One Chevrolet Volt owner has done something very cool with his car, turning the vehicle into an expensive controller for Mario Kart 64. Controlling the game involves using the steering wheel to steer, the accelerator and brakes, as well as the windshield wipers and flashing the headlights. Adam Ringwood runs the website ‘AvidHacker.’

These robots have mad skills bro. Robot’s Delight is a music video where robots rap about all of their great qualities to the tune of The Sugarhill Gang‘s 1979 hit song Rapper’s Delight. Yes, it’s as crazy and awesome as it sounds. Watch in amazement and possibly horror as robots like the Japanese android Robovie-II and Erica rap about their complex artificial intelligence.
