This is a video of Youtuber Rated RR shooting watermelons with Crysis 3 inspired exploding arrows. He made a couple different versions, one with the explosive in the arrow's tip, and another one that doesn't explode until the arrow has nearly pierced the melon to its fletching... / Continue →

This is a video of Youtuber MrLaduj1 testing the durability of a Durex condom by blowing one up with Coke and Mentos. Who knew condoms could stretch so far? I did. *wink* Get it? Because my pecker's so giant. That's a lie though, I got it stuck inside a thimble once and ha... / Continue →

Did you know earth is that small compared to the sun? Oh you did? Well did you know earth really isn't that close to the sun? You knew that too, huh? Well excuse me for trying to educate, Mr. Smarty Pants. MASSIVE SOLAR ERUPTION!: This "long filament of solar material," a... / Continue →

This is a shot of a nuclear explosion less than a millisecond after detonation, taken using a magical camera. Well, it's not really magic, I just don't understand how it works so that MAKES it magic. Same goes for magnets and microwaves. It's all little wizards as far as I'm... / Continue →

So apparently "technical errors" caused San Diego's 'Big Bay Boom' fireworks display last night to be set off in 15-seconds instead of over the course of 15-minutes. I'm not sure if somebody accidentally typed "15" into the seconds window instead of the minutes one on the cont... / Continue →

This is a video of an aspiring father/son astronaut team testing the computer-controlled booster separation of their homemade rocket. They decided to use six grams of black powder to force the two tubes apart, which, based on the explosive result, may have just been a number p... / Continue →

This is a 5-second (literally, five seconds) time-lapse video of the sun exploding with a brilliant solar flare yesterday (April 16th). It wasn't a particularly strong one, but it is one of the most impressive NASA's managed to catch on tape. The most impressive thing I've ma... / Continue →

Seen here looking like the beginning of a very promising 4th of July BBQ, two older gentlemen create oxyhydrogen gas (a mixture of hydrogen and oxygen) bubbles and prepare to pop them with a blowtorch. Cooooool -- I wanna try! *blows bubble-gum bubble, melts face off* Per v... / Continue →

Some kids learn by reading. Some kids learn by listening. And some kids learn by watching their idiot father drop a firecracker down a manhole and almost lose his head when it ignites all the trapped gas down there and sends the cover flying. But what did they learn -- that'... / Continue →

This is a video of a Russian driving on his way to work at the local vodka distillery outside Saint Petersburg (everybody in Russia works at a vodka distillery in my mind) when a power station explodes. Did I mention he's listening to John Lennon's "Imagine" while it all goes ... / Continue →

This is a video of a guy eating Funyuns and watching a car engine explode during an oil change, all set to Jon Bon Jovi's 'Blaze of Glory'. I read the Youtube comments looking for an explanation, and the consensus is that the explosion wasn't caused by the oil change, but some... / Continue →

This is an ad for Moe's Southwest Grill (great, now I want a burrito and some con queso dip) called 'Microwaves Ruin Everything', featuring a bunch of things blowing up in microwaves shot at 500 frames per second. The message is that microwaves are bad, and Moe's doesn't use m... / Continue →

This is a mushroom cloud treehouse designed and built by sculptor Dietrich Wegner. It looks pretty awesome, but would look even awesomer with a 'NO GURLZ ALOUD' sign hanging outside. *throwing dirtballs* READ THE SIGN, SUZY! The structure is about twenty feet tall, and the... / Continue →

This is the remote-controlled Digger D-3 "flail tank". It's the latest and greatest (read: explosive-proof) of Digger mine-detonators, which have been around since WWII. Basically, it's steered around on the battlefield like a giant R/C car tank while it wails on the ground ... / Continue →

The Nuke Lamp from Veneridesign looks like an atomic mushroom cloud. But fear not, Vault Boy (I'm playing New Vegas right now), it's not. It's just a piece of molded plastic. One that costs $1,500. "WHAT THE SHIT?!" Don't ask me bro, I didn't design it -- I'm just a guy on... / Continue →

Because this is what happens. Plus you ruin a perfectly good backup condom. Or, in your case, balloon animal. "Whatever bro, I used to date a chick and one time we were getting so hot and heavy at Makeout Point we ended up using a Doritos bag." That...is not something I'd b... / Continue →

Ever wonder what the blast from a tank looks like in slow-motion? Well rest easy, Admiral Inquisitive, because that's exactly what this is. Unless I embedded the wrong video, in which case it might be one of me with a grocery bag over my head ranting about trolls and how I wa... / Continue →

Please tell me you engaged the emergency brake this time. Libyan rebels, best known for having their plutonium stolen from them by Doc Brown to power the time machine (jk, those were terrorists, not rebels), are back at it, this time welding a tank turret to a pickup truck and... / Continue →

For those counting and not just staring at the clock waiting for the weekend to arrive, this is the eighth (8th) installment in the autotuned Symphony of Science series. It deals with the beginnings of the universe, which, from the information I've gathered from that picture, ... / Continue →

Remember the XM-25 Smartgun we've reported on in the past? Of course not, you can't even remember where you parked your car at the mall. BY MACY'S NOT BLOOMINGDALES YOU DINGALING. Anyway, the XM-25 is officially in the hands of troops in Afghanistan and shoots grenades that ... / Continue →
