Watch quadrocopters playing catch
From the flyingmachinearena:
"This video shows three quadrocopters cooperatively play with a ball.
The quadrocopters are attached to an elastic net. The net allows them to catch the ball by moving such that they span the net under the falling ball.

Ukrainian logging truck action
This Ukrainian logging truck looks like it took the corner just a bit too fast on Sunday. Reports say that the truck's brakes had failed and that the accident was unavoidable. No one was seriously injured. The truck driver walked away with a concussion. But the car in front of the dash cam is pretty much toast.

The Engineer speaks! teaser clip from the Prometheus Blu-Ray
The Engineer speaks! Watch this short video preview of the deleted scene where the Engineer speaks with David in Engineerese (I guess). So, any guesses as to what he`s saying, I`m thinking it`s bad news (don`t want to ruin it for those that haven`t seen the movie).
Sounds a bit like me ordering for last call.
We`ll all know soon, October 9th can`t come soon enough.

This is what happens when you expose 1500 ping pong balls to liquid nitrogen
This is pretty fun to watch. Watch Plymouth University professor Roy Lowry demonstrate what happens when you try to contain liquid nitrogen when it's trying to returning to its gaseous state. Skip to 3:15 if you can`t wait to see what happens.
Ain`t science fun?
