Thankfully, the two drivers of this speedboat are still alive after the crash. And the crash was crazy. The speedboat launched itself into the air like a rocket, flipped end over end and then spun again one more time for good measure before it slammed into the water bow first. Just nuts.
Planes are giving us less and less leg room so it’s no surprise that quarrels break out between passengers over space. Yesterday, one such altercation got so heated that a plane was diverted to Chicago. And at the heart of the conflict? A nifty little device called the Knee Defender, which prevents seats from reclining.
It’s easy to get a dog’s-eye view of the world by strapping an action camera to your canine, but making it stable and comfortable is another matter — you don’t want Rover shaking off that costly video gear. That’s where GoPro’s new Fetch mount…
Well, it’s official: following a drawn-out Senate voting process, California governor Jerry Brown has signed his state’s smartphone kill switch bill into law. Companies wanting to sell handsets in the state now have to include a remote disabling…

Cue the Fifty Shades Of Grey references.
While photographer Patrick Hall is (probably) no Christian Grey, he did recently set up a photoshoot where he asked people to pose for him, semi-topless, while their friends and significant others tased them.
Hall admitted in a blog post that many people, hearing of the project, thought he might be crazy, or a sadist.
“What I found most interesting about the reactions people showed while getting [tased] was you never knew how they would react,” Hall wrote. “Some people screamed while others were quiet. A few people looked like they were experiencing pleasure while others had the most painful faces I’ve ever seen.”
As for the friends and S/Os doing the stun?
“Most of them were excited to cause pain to their friend and only showed remorse immediately after executing the shock,” he wrote.
Yup, sounds like humanity.
Thankfully for everyone involved, the project turned out pretty incredible. This is what people look like in the immediate, split-second aftermath of being stunned.
We were in grade school the first time we saw the original “Star Wars” trilogy, so those epic double entendres went straight over our heads for the most part.
But we were reminded of how hilarious the quotes were on Monday, when an Ask Reddit thread popped up asking people to weigh in with the one “Star Wars” line that best described the sad, sorry state of their sex lives.
Below, read 12 of the funniest — and feel free to add your line in the comments, Padawan.
1. “Uh, we had a slight weapons malfunction, but uh… everything’s perfectly all right now.”
2. “Size matters not. Look at me. Judge me by my size, do you? Hmm? Hmm.”
3. “I’m married for years now so… ‘A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away…’”
4. “It’s a small thermal exhaust port, right below the main port.”
5 “It didn’t go in. It just impacted on the surface.”
6. “Pull out! You’re not doing any good back there!”
7. “Urrrrrrn Ahhhhhhhhrrrr Urrraaaarrrrrggghh.”
8. “Will he finish what he begins?”
9. “Would it help if I got out and pushed?”
“It might!”
10. ”Hey, point that thing some place else!”
11. “Back door, huh? Good idea.“
12. “Sorry about the mess.”

In the past few decades, food allergies have been increasingly and mysteriously on the rise. A possible explanation lies with our gut bacteria, which have been reshaped by our soap- and antibiotics-laden lifestyles. A new study in mice adds intriguing evidence: one particular type of bacteria prevents sensitivity to peanuts.
People use GoPros to film all sorts of stuff, from swimming manta rays to swimming races off Alcatraz . You could watch footage of people doing extreme water-based activities captured via GoPro every day for the rest of your life, and there would still be so much GoPro footage of people doing extreme water-based activities left unviewed in the world.
