The other clips on the site are cool too.

You make the game out of ball bearings, baloons, peanut cans and wooden dowels.

Magic Trick (but REALLY freaky)

OK, so this is a bit scary, so don't watch it if it's going to freak you out.

You know who you are.

It's only a trick. Here is a story that talks about it over at Snopes.

Fire Rainbow

Just so you don't think this is photoshopped or anything, have a look at the amazing "Fire Rainbow" at the myth-debunking site Snopes.com. They explain it too.

The Lyrebird Video

Stay with this one. Don't give up just because nothing blows up in the first ten seconds. You'll be amazed.

Seriously, you'll want to talk about this one.

DANCING: I guess....

So this guy invents a suit that lets him make music by dancing. And then he writes a computer program to let you "choreograph" his dance.

Weird. You'll love it.
