some things i scraped off the interweb this week
First up, “Extreme Sheep LED Art”.
You herd me.
There’s a ton of skepticism in the comments about how real that could be. I’m inclined to think a) it’s worth watching for the hilarious concept alone, b) the fireworks at the end are thoroughly believable. Enjoy it either way.
Next, something serious, but just as breathtaking:
There’s some kind of trick photography going on – a weird lens here, some time-lapse there – but my brain can’t make heads or tails of it. It thinks it’s watching some stop-motion thing with teeny tiny scale models.
Somehow, though, the big boats still look big. Which leads me to…
Yeah. That’ll about do it.
I discovered Dark Roasted Blend dot com last night. It’s full of crazy awesome things like that.
And this. This is obviously a drawing or something, but seriously. If I was a supervillain, this would be my primary base of operations. In the sky. With cannons.
Honourable mention, of course, to the Blue Marlin.
It’s a barge. It sinks itself, swims underneath other boats, re-surfaces, and then carries said other boats around.
Like, for instance, that destroyer. Or an oil rig.
That’s about exhausted my quota of awesome for the week. Tune in next week, for more of whatever I happen to dig up in my travels.
