Seeing people's reactions in slow mo was a great addition. I like that he also seems to be doing the "gently caress yeah !" double fists as he falls. Also, I'm not at all familiar with pole vaulting, so as the camera panned up, I thought the black thing half way up the nearest upright was the level of the bar, but then the camera (and the kid) just... kept... going... up. loving insane. What a mad lad.

What if we also bring the sun closer so that the moon and the sun rotate around the earth at a speed that makes the day/night cycle less strobey ?

Wait, is that supposed to be the explanation for why vampires don't have reflections ? I guess it got lost by the time there were films showing vampires not reflecting in windows and puddles and whatnot.

SerthVarnee posted:Just got a mail from NASA. They want to contact me further to ask for more feedback and insights about my epilepsy and how to mitigate the issue. Fully agree with Robobot; this is awesome ! Do you know what you're going to tell them ? Like, do you actually know what would need to be done to the images to make them less trigger-some ? (Sorry, I have no idea how epilepsy works, and I'm curious; feel free to not answer, obviously.)

I know from personal experience that playing with blades on the trampoline is a good way to get a hole in your trampoline (and make your brother shout at you).

Leon Sumbitches posted:Applying Marconi's theory to these reports, musician Gavin Bryars theorized that the sound of the music the band played would reverberate underwater for eternity. He then wrote an incredible piece of music called The Sinking of The Titanic that was his interpretation of how that would sound. Thanks so much for this. I'd never heard of it before, but it sounded intriguing. So the other night, I went out onto the balcony in the cold, wrapped in a blanket with a hot cup of tea, left the lights off, and spent an hour listening to this in the dark with the sound of the beach nearby and the distant lights of the next town. It was a really wonderful experience. 10/10

Less relevant, but I'm going to mention it anyway. I once knew a guy who needed over 100 sutures (126, if memory serves) in his face, neck, chest and arms because he got drunk and thought it would be a good idea to pick up a goanna (big Australian tree-climbing lizard; huge gently caress-off claws).

As a non-American, the Waffle House thing confuses me. Why are fights in WH so common ? Is it really just a "more poor people eat here than at other establishments" thing ? Or are WH fights just over represented online because of memes ?

It seems unlikely that they would invent an instrument and not, at some point, use it to make every kind of music it's capable of. The Jewish shofar is only supposed to be used for religious purposes, but my rabbi uses every available opportunity to show off how slightly-less-terrible he's getting at playing the epic sax guy solo on it.

When I was a kid, my dad's boss worked out of a workshop right next to his house. When you heard a shout of "Want a cup of tea, Ken ?" coming from the house, the only way to tell whether it was his wife or their parrot was to wait 10 minutes and see if any tea arrived.

Ardent Communist posted:Guys, I've read tons of history, i know how deadly horse archers can be. I'm just having trouble training new ones, i can't see how they hold the bows with their hooves? I've not read much history, but I've been around a bunch of horses, and the most dexterous part of them is the lips, so perhaps you're looking in the wrong direction. Tiny horse-mouth-sized bows and arrows is what I'm suggesting.
