Meet Jacob Sharpe. He’s an MIT Engineering graduate, and professional circus performer. Also, he likes rap music, squash courts, and minimal couture.

Take a look! It’s pretty rad.

I’ve been keeping an eye on what I refer to as the ‘jet-pack issue’ since I was a small child. I am of course referring to the personal jet-backpack we first saw James Bond use in Thunderball. It was understood that Bond might be ahead of the game and it may well take a bit […]

This Sri Lankan girl got hit so hard by a moving train that she did a pretty impressive double spin. If this was ice skating, she’d have scored at least a 7,9.
