Images you probably think were "photoshopped" or otherwise doctored

15 images you will not believe aren't photoshopped

15 MORE images...



I didn't really believe these were real until I saw the original links the person posted along with these pictures. Number 6 (from 15 more images) I thought was for sure "photoshopped", but if you watch on the youtube video you'll see that it isn't fake. Well, for those of you who have already seen the bird before... well nevermind then. Nothing to see here.

Mutant/Unexplained "powers?"

Mutants? Super Powers?

Interesting article I found thanks to someone on my facebook. I don't much care for the the way the person wrote the article but it's an interesting article nonetheless. I particularly like the one about the Swiss man who's got a jet pack. Pretty awesome!

Improv Everywhere Group

A friend of mine told me about this youtube video that he found from this group based in New York city, New York called Improv Everywhere. This group basically does street pranks, or maybe what you could call 'surprise missions.' Basically they go around and do things that people don't know they are going to do, calling them 'missions' according to the text in the beginning of each video. For example, the first video I saw (and the one my friend showed me which got me interested in the group) is of this huge group of agents who are told by the leader that at a specified time they will all just freeze in place like as if someone were to pause a movie and the characters appear frozen. Of course people are wondering what's going on; it's kind of funny but at the same time kind of eerie because people just stop what they are doing. The location in this one is Grand Central Station in New York.

Anyway, they seem to have some interesting ideas, sort of a spin on the 'you're on candid camera' thing. You can check out more videos and learn more at their website, here. They have their videos up on the site itself using something called revver, but they also (obviously) have an official youtube account with which they use to post their videos as well.

Nuttin' But Stringz from AGT September 2008

Man, I don't know if anyone who is reading this blog has seen America's Got Talent, but this year's episodes have been phenomenal (of course there is the bad acts too, but there were so many good acts this year to make up for them) and I just watched the September 3rd's episode where the 10th contestant was Nuttin' But Stringz. Anyway, these guys are just fantastic... But don't take my word for it, see for yourself right here:
America's Got Talent: Nuttin' But Stringz

I don't know how long NBC will keep this clip up, but I recommend watching this... These guys brought tears to my eyes the first time I watched it. They're simply amazing, it's like a mixture between hip-hop and classical or something. Basically, it's these two brothers who play violin as there act and just blow away the audience.
I hope you enjoy(ed) it as much as I do.
