Okay, it’s not the texting part that freaks me out, it’s controlling the motorcycle in traffic while laying back on the seat.  It doesn’t even look like he’s using his feet.  (Okay, I know how to…

Guitar God Parodies →
From Wired Underwire, parody videos by Santeri Ojala. Ojala overdubs concert footage with his own music. YouTube pulled them earlier this week because of copyright infringement complaints. These are like musical versions of the videos by DayJobOrchestra. Both are hilarious. A couple of my favourites are here, but there are about ten […]

F-22 Raptor Airshow Demo →
It’s a bit long, but if any of you haven’t seen the F-22 Raptor at an airshow, you’ll be blown away by what it can do with the thrust vectoring control system. Second half of video is the best.

Really great soaring footage, lots of low level stuff. (Check out the bit over the lake at the 45 sec. mark.) It always makes me laugh when I hear people comment that you have no control when flying a glider. I’m not sure how anyone thinks you can fly anything with no […]
