Imagine going on a fishing trip with your buddies. Beers are had. Jokes are tossed. Fish are caught. And then a killer whale pops up out of nowhere to steal the halibut you just snagged to scare the hell out of you and give you an awesome story to tell. Digg found this video of a killer whale attacking a caught fish and it’s incredible. It’s not everyday you get to see such a beautiful beast steal your dinner plans.
Watch this crazy guy base jumping into a void full of thick fog. I can imagine him thinking: "hmmm, how can I make this base jump thing even riskier? Of course, let’s do it in a foggy day so I don’t even know where the hell I am going!" This is just madness—but pretty exciting, I have to admit. As I saw him entering the fog I could hear myself saying "oh no no no no NO!"
At this point, we’ve all seen the insane Russian dudes who dangle off of tall things
Nothing lives forever, not even our universe. Eventually it’ll go kaput and be destroyed… but how? Smart people have wrapped their heads around the universe’s destruction and have come upwith three different theories. The Big Rip, Heat Death (or the Big Freeze) and the Big Crunch and Big Bounce. They all sound like they’re going to hurt.
NPR wasn’t kidding: Move to Alaska if you want to avoid the harsh winter
You’ve seen Felix Baumgartner’s harrowing jump from 128,1000 feet above Earth’s surface, but you haven’t seen it like this. This new exhilarating video shows you what it was like from Felix’s point of view with perfect clarity.
Terrifying. Skydiving is already brown your pants scary when you’re conscious. Imagine being unconscious while you’re falling from 12,500 feet in the air. Think about all the horrible things that could happen. That’s what happened to skydiver James Lee. Luckily, miraculously, thankfully, impossibly, he survived the fall.
Step 1: Line up 23 Dutch lunatics in the middle of a road. Step 2: Get someone to drive a 62.3-ton Leopard tank at full speed on that road only to activate the emergency brakes just a few meters from the 23 lunatics. There’s no step 3. Just pray that you don’t end up with three thousand pounds of human jam.
Old mental institutions. Haunted houses. Cemeteries at night. Clown conventions. They’re all terrifying. But I’m pretty sure I’d rather sleep overnight in those places than spend a single minute in this abandoned veterinary school. At this horrifying school you see animal heads trapped in formaldehyde, organs floating around, death surrounding you and monsters in the hallways (presumably).
Behold the Severodvinsk—the pride of the Russian Navy, the first of the post-Soviet era Yasen-class submarines. It entered service at the end of December 2013 and it will replace the old Akula-class and Alfa-class subs. But unlike those warships, and thanks to a new cruise missile, the Severodvinsk has strategic and tactical nuclear weapon capabilities.
