This practical joke could have turned into tragedy: watch as some "friends" throw a guy out of a boat after seeing a great white shark in the distance. As they approach the shark, the animal turns around and goes straight to get him, just a fraction of a second before he gets back into the boat. Read More >>

"Nope none of them have Donegal accents, They sound Antrim or Down and this is most likely Strangford Lough and a basking shark." More »
Sometimes Google Translate doesn't get it quite right. To illustrate that point in the most outlandish way possible, CDZA took the Fresh Prince of Bel Air theme, crunched it through Google Translate for all 26 supported languages, then took it back to English. Read More >>

Noon is the new North Pole. A sun-drenched city in a world 250 years in the future, desolated by nuclear mining, which set off a 50-year-long earthquake, and a volcanic eruption large enough to halt the Earth's rotation. This awesome 10-minute short shows a brutal world ravaged by corruption and greed, and looking like a cross between District 9 and Judge Dredd, it's well worth a watch. Read More >>
My favourite movies in the world are those that involve time travel. I can't help it, it's my weakness. I also love any movie with Joseph Gordon Levitt. And Bruce Willis. And hell let's just add Piper Perabo because she's just as cute as her name sounds. But I didn't watch Looper. Man I need to get out more. Okay, I'll watch it right after I see everything that's wrong with it, in this 3-minute video. [Cinema Sins] Read More >>

OK, so we've seen quite a few people driving karts around in lame awesome Mario Kart gear, but the crazy bods from Waterloo Labs have upped the ante. They've kitted the karts out with enough servos, hydraulics, and RFID tech to truly simulate Mario Kart, weapons, items, boosts and all. Where do I sign up to go play? Read More >>
If you want a colourful explosion, you can get your hands on some fancy, professional fireworks, sure. Or, you can take the easy way out and blow up a couple of buckets of paint. You'll be like a Jackson Pollock with a case of M-80s. The Slow Mo Guys went with that second option, and the results are modern art you can get behind. Read More >>
Liquid metal technology. That's Terminator 2 stuff, right? Well you better start running now, John Connor, because it's here. A new, flexible, conductive nano-coating lets liquid metal keep its form by transforming under high pressure, and then springing right back. Read More >>
Taking a small break from expanding his insane rubber band-based arsenal, slingshot master Joerg Sprave turns his attention to re-engineering duct tape, and other random accessories, into a trio of improvised weapons. Read More >>

What you're looking at here is Rha, an amazing short that, frankly, needs to be made into a full feature. Aliens fighting robots, with the intellect we'd associate with 'the machines' from The Matrix. If you love good sci-fi, this is a must watch. Read More >>

When you think about child labour, chances are your first thoughts aren't "Wow! Awesome!" And if they are, you're probably a monster. Perhaps the sole exception is if you're thinking of this video. Granted, this is dangerous, and no kid should be doing this, but damn if it isn't impressive how competent the little guy is. Read More >>
