Talk about being dangerous without a weapon. In this video, that is obviously a commercial for this Samsung Camcorder H205, the Master of Business Card Throwing is also showcasing his mad skills.

With such skills this modern day ninja seems to be doing fine without the black robe and shurikens.

Airports should probably update their black lists. With this gut on a plane, no one is safe. Imagine him sitting next to some business guy packed with business cards.

Thanks to Miloš for the dig.

Football World Cup starts on July 11, 2010 and footbal frenzy (and soccer too) is growing every day. Internet can only help in spreading this frenzy even faster. For example, check out this guy.

If this video is to be believed, one needs to admit that this guy has good control of his right foot.

Cannot tell for sure if all these shots have been faked. Anyway, the video ends up with a comment: Wanted for drafting in a national team and putting him on central striker position and penalty kicker of the national team.

It’s a pity you’re not allowed to change players like you do in hockey, for example. ;-)

Thanks to Sumrak for the link.

The best street dance moves you have ever seen

This guy, Robert Muraine a.k.a. Mr. Fantastic, has got some wicked street dancing and popping skills.I’m also posting this as a short tribute to Michael Jackson’s who sadly passed away yesterday.

Thanks to Ivanjah for sending me this one. :-)

Filmed over the period of a few months in and around Edinburgh by Dave Sowerby, this video of Inspired Bicycles team rider Danny MacAskill features probably the best collection of street/street trials riding ever seen. There’s some huge riding, but also some of the most technically difficult and imaginative lines you will ever see. Without a doubt, this video pushes the envelope of what is perceived as possible on a trials bike.

The music is by Band of Horses. The song is ‘The Funeral.’

The beginning of the video sums it up why I never tried anything similar. As I’m thinking of trying at least rail hops, after 2+ decades of riding a bike, I should really start wearing a helmet. :-)

Watch and listen to this intro packing real-time rendered animation filled with fractals and music into (hold your pants) - 1kB! Yes, that’s 1024 bytes! That’s less memory that any computer you ever owned had inside.

This is just one of intros showcased this year at one of the most popular demoscene parties - Breakpoint organized in Germany.

Demo group that made this wonder is called TBC while the intro is called Untraceable

I’m amazed every time I see anything remotely advanced like this fitting in anything below 64kB… this is simply beyond my comprehension. Hm… I wonder if these guys ever get laid while trying to cram yet more fractals, fps and animation.

’[…]However, I must control that before I undertake any new project because that would lead to lethal mistakes. ‘If I ever find myself totally fearless then that is when I will stop what I am doing.’  Next up on Eskil’s dream list of performance feats is the Burj hotel in Dubai which he feels will top his previous achievements. ‘I would dream of balancing on the top of the Burj in Dubai, the tallest building in the world.’
