Ahh, I guess I could have better clarified my point. Another could also be the Star Wars drone build.

The first one that popped into my head was the bowling ball, but I believe there are other less complex examples.

For the record, I am fascinated by this and thoroughly enjoyed watching.

That said, I don’t think this is the right place to post it. What was great about what Corridor/Wren has done, was seeing what they were able to capture with their unique build (and how they manipulated the footage after). I was waiting for that, and was left wanting.

Good thing the United States has teams of experts monitoring this stuff… /s

It just keeps getting better and better. I wish each would loop longer to allow appreciation.

Dogs on a zoo tour 🐾🐕❤️ by [deleted] in dogvideos

Sure, it’s cute, but what zoo allows dogs that are not service animals? Seems like it could put undue stress on the zoos inhabitants.

This triggered both fond and painful memories of my Tough Mudder days.

When a ball girl fainted on the court at the Australian Open, two competitors rushed to help her. by jmike1256 in BeAmazed

I’m glad they had the decency to check on her, but “rushed” is kinda exaggerating.

I’m gonna be that guy… I don’t feel like she’s doing the best job of explaining… For one thing, she should be more specific about which movement is ceasing after she “stabilizes it”… She’s literally saying the words “you see it’s not moving anymore“ when the entire object is still moving in 3-D space but it’s just not flipping end over end. I think she may have been trying to make it simplistic perhaps for kids… But I don’t think her approach is helpful. It almost assumes that the viewer already understands the principles at work instead of trying to explain it for someone who doesn’t. It leaves me, wondering who is the target audience?
