Friend buys colorblind man glasses letting him see green & purple. But they didn't warn him.

Get ready for the most touching video you'll ever see of a man crying over a container of Clorox wipes.


He will never look at anti-bacterial wipes the same way again. Literally.

Ethan Scott is, according to hisYouTube about page, "a cheerful, sarcastic, and lovable attention-whore of an actor from Southern California." He's also colorblind. For his birthday, "someone very special" to Ethan gave him a pair of EnChroma glasses, which help colorblind people see colors more distinctly. According to EnChroma's website, the lenses work by narrowing the light spectrum that a colorblind person sees:

Red-green color blindness is a genetic condition where the light-sensing function of the red and green cones is more overlapping than normal. By filtering a narrow region of the spectrum where overlap is occurring, the EnChroma Cx restores normal separation between the red and green cones.

The glasses aren't a cure-all. A colorblind Forbes writer and his colorblind brother both tried them, and while they reported that colors were more vivid and distinct, both brothers still failed the colorblindness dot tests while wearing the glasses. But that doesn't mean that, for people like Ethan, wearing the glasses isn't an intensely emotional experience. Especially since Ethan didn't know what they were when he put them on:

There are a few other examples of people trying EnChroma glasses for the first time on YouTube. I recommend this one, which is notable for the all-business toddler that walks by in the background and the moment when the dad very earnestly asks, "Do I look like a dork?"


All the celebrities, dictators, presidents and a-holes who've been turned into butt plugs.

Getting butt-plugged is the new version of getting a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

Since the dawn of time, people have been sticking miniature figurines of other people up their buttholes. The ancient Vikings used to gather around campfires, where they would ritualistically plug their butts with figurines of their mighty emperors as a sign of devotion. Just kidding. That's never happened. But it sure seems like celebrity butt plugs have been on the rise recently. I thought I'd scour the Internet and find out which notable people have been made into ass-worthy sculptures. During my research I discovered two things: 1) The main celebrity butt plug producers are a politically-minded sculpture artist and a now-defunct company called "Celebrity Plugs." 2) Most of these look super uncomfortable and should not actually be stuck up your ass.

Completely justified bridezilla uses Facebook to hunt runaway thief who made off with her wallet.

Someone broke into Michelle Tietz's bridal suite and took her wallet. Now she's fighting back.

(via KNSD)

It's every bride's worst nightmare: being robbed on your wedding day. Or is it rain? Or the guy walking out? The cake being late? I'm really not sure; brides have a lot of nightmares. But being robbed is up there.

Michelle Tietz of San Diego lived that nightmare on June 7, her wedding day. Before the ceremony, she left her purse in the bridal suite. Then, while she was busy getting married, someone broke in and stole her wallet. It was so artfully done, she didn't even realize until she and her husband stopped at a gas station the next day. "That's how we started our honeymoon," she told KNSD.

Whoever took the wallet was some sort of thieving machine – methodical and heartless. They timed the theft perfectly. "Someone knew I was a bride getting married, and went in and took my stuff, and knew they wouldn't be discovered," said Tietz. The robber didn't waste any time, either. When Tietz contacted her bank, she found out $1,400 worth of charges had been made on her card starting immediately after 6:00 PM, while the ceremony was still going on.

Officials tracked the card and discovered surveillance video of a woman they believe is the Bridal Bandit (my term). They released images of the woman, which Tietz savvily decided to share on her Facebook account, hoping somebody would identify her.

The image has already received more than 1,700 shares, but nobody has been able to name the culprit. Just to be thorough, Tietz also uploaded the image to Instagram with the hashtag #LetsCatchAThief.

Do you know this woman? Finding her could help one blindsided bride finally get some closure on what should have been the happiest day of her life. More importantly, it could prevent this heinous criminal from ruining any more wedding days, and turning any more sweet, innocent women into vengeful bridezillas.

Drunk squirrel ruins a bar better than any drunk human ever could.

This squirrel is going nuts...for alcohol (I'm so sorry for writing that).


Drunk on power or just drunk? Squirrels don't care about other people's property.
(via Getty)

There's a wild animal lurking clubs in England, drinking up all the booze, and destroying property. And I'm not talking about another weird outburst from Christian Bale. I'm talking about a real animal.

According to one staff member at the Honeybourne Railway Club in Evesham, it appeared as though a person had broken in and wreaked havoc on the bar. Beer had been spilled everywhere, and glass bottles littered the floor. Just as they were about to alert the authorities that some mad man had destroyed their place of business, a squirrel "staggered" out into the open.

You'll notice the squirrel's eyes in the above photo are completely dilated so as to appear entirely black, possibly due to using some other controlled substances. Or, maybe that's just what squirrels look like. I never really noticed before now. That's not a photo of the actual squirrel in question, but I'm assuming drug use in the squirrel community must be rampant if they all look like that.

The squirrel had turned on several beer taps and scattered money on the floor. If I had to guess, I'd say he was trying to impress a female squirrel with his ability to "make it rain" in a human club. Alas, the squirrel was left drunk and alone, caught red-pawed.

Alone, the squirrel caused £300 worth of damage, which is about $468 USD, and worth as many as 2,000 nuts (again. Sorry for making that joke twice).

San Francisco politician goes viral for snappy response to being hounded by Fox News.

0

Scott Wiener, a member of the San Francisco Board of Supervisors, had a great zinger ready when he was confronted by Fox News.

In the last few weeks, Fox News has latched on like a barnacle to the story of Kathryn Steinle. On July 1, Steinle was tragically killed in a random shooting on a San Francisco pier. This has opened up two debates. The first is whether this calls into question how "sanctuary cities"—localities that ignore federal deportation requests—are run. Steinle's killer was a known criminal who had been deported multiple times, and San Francisco's Sheriff is rightly taking heat for ignoring Department of Justice requests to detain him. The second debate, being run by Donald Trump and Fox News, is whether most illegal immigrants are, in fact, criminals—the new hot theory on the right being that Mexico is deliberately sending us their criminals, like a 24/7 Mariel Boatlift.

In particular, Fox has singled out the San Francisco Board of Supervisors for being the ones who designated San Francisco a "sanctuary city." Board member Scott Wiener told ThinkProgress that Fox has been very aggressive with them:

“They've been stalking various members of the board of supervisors for the last week. They went to someone's home. One of my colleagues said they were following her around in her district last week."

That's why, when a crew from Fox News' The O'Reilly Factor cornered Wiener in his office, he had his response ready: "Fox News is not real news, and you're not a reporter," he told them. "I talk to real news only." He wasn't miked, but if he was, I like to imagine he would have dropped the mic. He tweeted about this incident afterward:

Lest anyone think that Wiener is an insulated politician who refuses to talk to anyone he doesn't agree with, he is quick to point out that he will speak to any reporter from a conservative news outlet, as long as it's not Fox. He's got a grudge, and this latest story isn't helping anything. As Wiener says himself, Fox is trying to “take advantage of a horrific crime to bash immigrants."

Meanwhile, the ultra-liberal citizens of San Francisco are thrilled with Wiener. They're not happy to have Fox reporters in their city, and seeing one of their own burn them so succinctly is music to their ears. Wiener said the response has been “overwhelmingly and enthusiastically positive. People are thrilled. There is such a deep seated frustration with Fox News and the fringe it represents."

Of course, this clip has only fanned the flames with that fringe, a group which is never hesitant to express its opinion. Thankfully, neither is Scott Wiener.

Get ready to think, "Man, I really should take time off and go on a five month hike," before remembering that you'd panic if you went more than three waking hours without Facebook.

We all like to believe the best of ourselves. We have so much potential as humans, after all. With practice, cowardly people can become brave; unathletic people can become marathon runners; and every single one of us can convince ourselves for, like, five minutes that we're going to do a many-month-long hike before we get sucked back into watching Dance Moms and forget we ever said anything about going outside.

A few people actually do these hikes, like the often-traveling Mac, who walked the Pacific Crest Trail and made the video you see above. He shot regular video during the 2,660 mile hike from Mexico to Canada, and edited it into the three-minute compilation you see above. I sat in my desk chair with shitty posture and watched the entire thing, thinking: "This is beautiful! I like beautiful things! I could do this!" before realizing that, as much as I love being active outside, I have rent and a cat and a car payment.

Yes, none of those those things will really stop you if you really want to go, but most of us don't actually want to. So, we watch videos like this instead. It's fun, but let's not kid ourselves about what we're actually gonna do, guys.

Young Thug and Birdman's alleged plot to kill Lil Wayne is more confusing than 'Game of Thrones.'

0

Get ready for a biopic about this in 20 years.


Wayne said that Thug said that Birdman said that—wait, I'm confused. (via Getty)

The hip-hop world is about to blow up, and you have Atlanta's WSB-TV Channel 2 Action News to thank. Here's what happened: In April, shots were fired at Lil Wayne's tour bus while he was in Atlanta. And no, someone didn't diss his tour bus, it was literally shot at. In late May, the Atlanta police got a warrant to arrest Jimmy Carlton Winfrey, who was revealed to be the main suspect in the case. Winfrey has served as Young Thug's tour manager, and Thug and Wayne have been feuding for months, so people think Thug hired Winfrey to off Wayne. Today, it was finally revealed that Birdman and Young Thug were named in the indictment for the shooting. The indictment alleges that Birdman, Thug, and Winfrey are warring with Wayne, and that the feud relates to their involvement with the Bloods:

Why are they feuding? And where does Birdman fit in? *Reclines in chair and lights cigar* Well, let's take a trip down memory lane.

Lil Wayne was a rap prodigy. He was signed to Cash Money Records by Birdman when he was just in middle school. Birdman served as sort of a father figure towards the Young Wayne, who exploded in the mid-2000s. Wayne was at the top of his game, but like any star at the top of his game, he wasn't destined to stay there forever. He started falling off, and after an ill-conceived rock album, he was not the star he used to be. Even though he helped mentor Drake and Nicki Minaj, who are now super famous, Wayne became less of an asset to Birdman. Enter Young Thug.

Thug emerged on the scene as an up-and-coming star. Even though Thug didn't come up on the Cash Money label, Birdman kind of ditched Wayne and made Young Thug his new protégé. Wayne felt betrayed. He felt more betrayed when Cash Money kept delaying the release of his new album, Tha Carter V, and took to Twitter to publicly blast the label and "Baby," a.k.a. Bryan Williams, a.k.a. Birdman.

Young Thug sided with Birdman, and now it's blown up into a big feud, the size of which we haven't seen for a while. Game even got involved, coming to Wayne's defense.

This shit is crazy. And stupid. As Stereo Williams wisely points out in The Daily Beast, "Hip-hop is supposed to be past this kind of foolishness." Can't they put all this aside and just get along? I propose that Drake lead a conflict resolution session. I imagine that it starts out with everyone arguing, but then Drake sings and everyone starts crying and talking about their childhood and it all gets better. This probably explains why I would be an ineffective gangsta rapper.

Bed ridden.


The Internet is perhaps overreacting a tad to these admittedly awesome milkshakes.

0

I'm sure they're delicious, but everyone's going gaga over milkshakes that look like they're made by a toddler left alone in a Cold Stone Creamery.

Pâtissez, a cafe in Canberra, Australia, makes a mean milkshake, and people are going CRAZY for them. According to co-owner Anna Petridis in an interview in the Canberra Times, "everything in the shakes is house-made, down to the brownie and the marshmallow." I guarantee they're delicious. And they look delicious, too, because we humans know that things like caramel, brownie, and Nutella taste good.

But they also look like a goddamn hot mess.

As far as I can figure out, the process goes something like this:

1. Make a milkshake.

2. Put a bunch of well-crafted toppings on that milkshake in a haphazard fashion, so it looks like said toppings could fall off at any moment, similar to someone clinging to the side of a building in an action movie.

3. Get someone to Instagram that shiiiiiit. Petridis actually mentioned in the article that they wanted to create something people would want to photograph. SUCCESS:

According to Petridis, people are "waiting an hour for a table, and they'll wait 45 minutes for a shake." This makes me happy; the owners of a new small business (the cafe is only a couple of months old) are getting a TON of business and press for what is obviously a tasty, handcrafted product. But let's call a spade a spade, and let's call a dribbling tower of dessert items what it is: a mess.

I don't care how many times you tongued the crab before, and the crab did nothing. The crab has claws. Is your tongue made out of metal? Does your tongue have an exoskeleton? Oh, it doesn't? THEN STOP TONGUING THE CRAB.

SIR. Do NOT put your tongue on the crab again. I WILL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE.

Oh, there you go. The crab grabbed your tongue, and you are not happy about it. COLOR ME SO SURPRISED.

This is a color-coded map of every job in America (except the spy ones).

Green is for healthcare, education and government; red is for manufacturing and trade; blue is for professional services; and yellow is retail and hospitality.


Massachussetts did not submit jobs data. Either that or they're just between millions of jobs right now.(via Robert Manduca)

If you like maps and data, you're really going to enjoy this project created by Harvard PhD student Robert Manduca. Inspired by the viral maps that used the 2010 Census to show every person in America as a dot color-coded by race (which showed how separately we still live in the 21st Century), Manduca used the 2010 Census data to create a color-coded, interactive map of every single job in America. For reasons that escape me (having to do with the Census itself), Massachussetts was not included in this extended data set. Also not shown are a lot of green dots that should be there, but aren't for security clearance reasons. More on that later.


This may seem like way too many green jobs. A lot of those are blue and yellow jobs right next to each other. (via Robert Manduca)

Although he expected to see that jobs had largely left downtown cores in America, Manduca was surprised by cities' resilience. Manhattan, for example, is literally filled with jobs, albeit almost 100% white-collar jobs. In some places, manufacturing remains strong or is even making a comeback, like in Brooklyn and Queens. In others, like Detroit, you can clearly see the decline of the urban core in the ring of red dots that represent manufacturing jobs that moved to suburbs around the city:

This is less zoomed-in than New York, to show how the red jobs migrated to the suburbs. (Not pictured: the jobs that migrated overseas.) (via Robert Manduca)

Now, here's a map of the Washington D.C. area, showing way more blank areas than you'd expect. This is especially true when you look at the sparse number of dots on the patch of ground where the largest office building on Earth is located: the Pentagon. Of the dots that do show up, an oddly high proportion of them are retail/hospitality jobs. There's literally nothing showing up for most of Langley, VA, where CIA headquarters is located.


If you look at the CIA headquarters on Google Maps, it informs you there's a Burger King inside. Google also lists the Pentagon as the "Vast home of the US. Defense Dept." The NSA is somewhere up and to the right of Mt. Rainier... I couldn't find it

Did you enjoy that map? I hope so, because you're probably on a list now. Anyway, here are some more cities. Feel free to make sweeping assumptions about their histories and residents based on the jobs. For instance, here's Los Angeles. People on the west/north side are all trying to break into Hollywood. People in the east/south quadrant have real jobs.


LA: The one city I will never feel shy about judging despite only visiting once.

New Orleans...seems like there should be more jobs.


I've never been to New Orleans but I like how colorful it seems.(via CityLab)

Las Vegas...way too many jobs.


It's almost like there are a lot of hospitality jobs there or something.(via CityLab)

Philly...looks much better than my relatives there have led me to believe.


I was born here, delivered by someone with a green-dot job downtown. (Not zoomed in all the way.)

Dallas and Ft. Worth have a lot of jobs, and a LOT of sprawl.

I tried out those #ThePowerofMakeup selfies all the makeup artists love. Things escalated quickly.

Remember this video?

In it, makeup artist and YouTube vlogger NikkieTutorials says she has been experiencing "makeup shaming." People suggest to her that she does makeup for boys, rather than for herself. Her video went viral, inspiring hordes of MUAs to jump on Instagram and show off their own half makeup selfies. Okay.

I'm confused. For a while, the "political" posts about makeup all related to celebrities showing off their "no makeup selfies," like Beyoncé, or NO FILTER Tyra Banks, or a very filtered Sofia Vergara. Now we're taking back our power by announcing all the contouring cheats we have to hide our double chins? Things have gotten so convoluted in the statement-making makeup selfie game, I don't know what to do with my face anymore. So I just decided to try everything!

Half Makeup Selfie:


Which half is made up lololol

Bottom Half Makeup Selfie:


Wow. My mouth is really different from my eyes when I have lipstick on.

Eyes Closed Makeup Selfie:


True beauty is invisible to the eye.

Upside Down Makeup Selfie:


Wear makeup that flies in the face of society's rules, like which way is up.

Half Clown Makeup Selfie:


When people see me without my clown makeup, they don't even believe I'm the same person.

Half Clown/Half Kiss Makeup Selfie:


Who are any of us, under the mask????

Just Makeup Selfie:


Makeup game is so strong, I don't even need to be there.

After Makeup Selfie #NoFilter:


Is your face hurting? 'Cause it's killing me!

I definitely have more respect for Instagram makeup artists now. That was fun, but the top layer of my skin has turned to clay. You gotta have quick-recovery pores for this sh*t! It also made me appreciate my actual face a lot more, despite the photo above. It's the only one of these looks I'm taking out on the street today.

Ultimately, the lesson is to be comfortable with yourself, even if you have to go through an arduous process of makeup/no makeup/half makeup experiments to get there.

A singer's pad fell out on live TV and people can't believe she didn't immediately jump out the window.

Nothing stops the show.

Posting a video of someone's pad falling on the floor would normally be kind of sad and inappropriate. However, Mexican singer Patricia Navidad has elevated that scenario, after it happened to her on Univision's live show Despierta América, with her mature response to the gaggle of people losing their sh*t over her embarrassment. If she even is embarrassed. She seems mostly hot and famous. Her tweets on the matter have been getting a lot of attention:

“They say that a man who treats a woman like a princess was raised by a queen, those who attack, who raised you?”

“Too bad all the men that are making fun of this weren't there, because if it is what they say it was I would've loved to have smeared it on their face."

“I DONT NEED WINGS TO FLY, I HAVE IMAGINATION AND THANKS TO GOD I HAVE A SENSE OF HUMOR.”

“I'M NOT A BOXER, I'M A WARRIOR, AND I NEVER THROW IN THE TOWEL, UNLESS I DON'T NEED IT ANYMORE."

The word for pad in Spanish is roughly "sanitary towel," so Patricia is punning in that last tweet.

Look, she's obviously a brave lady. I mean, she wore a maxi-pad instead of a tampon with that mini-dress! And though I'm loving her response, it's mostly weird that people think she could have responded differently. Like, maybe she should just have walked directly into the ocean instead? Hung her head and done a walk of shame through the streets? Sh*t happens. If you're on the rag, you might just lose a pad. And the mariachi band plays on...

Lee Daniels' f-bomb-filled response to being snubbed by the Emmys deserves an Emmy.

Through my amazing powers of empathy, I'm able to imagine that getting snubbed by the Emmys sucks.

And TV show creators, like all human beings, should be able to honestly express their emojis.

That's why this Instagram video of Lee Daniels is so fun and refreshing. The co-creator of Empire, which is loved by viewers and critics, isn't pretending the show's lack of Emmy nominations is no big deal and it's an honor just to work in television and blah blah blah. Taraji P. Henson deservedly got nommed for Best Actress, but the show was left out of most major categories. So going against a giggling, handsome warning from Empire actor Jussie Smollett, Daniels says what he really thinks: "Fuck these motherfuckers."

After the video started going around, Daniels released another video to clarify that he was just joking around. Duh, and it was amazing. He also told haters to go to bed, which they should.

Terrible porn premise come to life: This woman slapped around her boyfriend for watching porn.

The story is scary but also kind of hot. Then again, maybe I've just seen too much porn.


A man looks on joylessly at another porn, wishing a girl cared enough to attack him for it. (via Katie Brady)

Anthony Howard was innocently enjoying what I can only assume was his umpteenth serving of porn this week. Although nearly 66% of young men enjoy pornography on the Internet every day, and it has become a completely normal and healthy part of someone's sexual identity (I'm including the link to that proof in case my girlfriend is reading this), Anthony had made a vow to his girlfriend that he would no longer watch it.

This vow, I think, is a great start to a porn. The couple discusses how the young man can't watch porn anymore, then he offers the loophole: "What if we make a porn together...Can I watch that?" Then they totally do it.

This did not happen. Instead, Anthony just made the vow, and went right back to watching porn as usual.

What Anthony didn't know was that his girlfriend, Delia Priem, was secretly filming him with a hidden camera as he watched. Now, before I get to the story, I just want to say... A hidden camera watching a guy pleasure himself to porn sounds kind of like the start to a good porn. Except instead of his girlfriend storming in and demanding sex, Anthony's girlfriend stewed in anger about the betrayal until around 2:40 AM, when she slapped him awake and started a fight.

The police responded to a domestic violence call at the couple's Florida residence, and said that the fight started because of Delia's video proof that Anthony had virtually cheated. Hopefully, one of the cops was understanding in the interrogation room. Perhaps the cop gave her a shoulder to cry on. Or perhaps...a little more...? ;)

Oh no, Taylor Swift officially put Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellan on her "squad."

When she came for Olivia Benson, we said nothing. Now Captain Picard and Gandalf the Grey are hers.

Taylor Swift's squad of the coolest, most fashionable superstars that she can trot out on her rotating stage is growing. At first, it was just other thin, blonde songstresses, like Haim. Then she started collecting controversial actresses, like Lena Dunham. She moved from premium to basic cable with Mariska Hargitay and Ellen Pompeo.

And now...and now the cutest old man friend couple has fallen. It started with Ian McKellan, reciting the lyrics to Bad Blood onThe Yahoo Movie Show, then Patrick Stewart gave a formal reading of Blank Space for NPR. To be fair, Stewart took the next, fatal step:

Oh, no. Oh, no no no! Don't give her your power! Then it happened:

THIS IS A DANGEROUS MERGER.

See?! This is too much excitement for the national treasure that is the relationship between between Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellan. Imagine what might happen to them if they participated in this wild jumping:

Happy 4th from me, @gigihadid, @marhunt, @britmaack, @serayah and @haimtheband :)

Oh, come on: BuzzFeed made women pick their vaginas out of a line-up.

Really? These women really described their vaginas to a portrait artist and then tried to guess which was theirs?

Another day, another stunt involving the drawing of genitalia. In this case, six women described their lady bits to a professional artist (who has that soothing "I've seen it all" quality you want in a bikini waxer), who then drew their pussies and posted them on a board. Cool, so now we gals have another body part to compare unfavorably against those of other women.


In any case, it's an opportunity to post six drawings of vaginas on the Internet.

The second part of BuzzFeed's headline is "and it was awkward." Lol. As if this whole experiment wasn't carefully calculated to be awkward. Can you even imagine if BuzzFeed had gone to all the trouble of setting this up—casting the women, hiring the artist, creating a semi-private enclosure, locating a hand mirror—and then it had not been awkward?

Heads would have rolled. They would have had to up the ante and get Joseph Gordon-Levitt to come in and rank the vaginas.

Luckily, it was mega awkward, and now it is my privilege as a curator of important Internet content to share this video with you, dear reader. Try to ignore the many flaws, like that those are vulvas, not vaginas.

Breaking no-makeup news: Kim Kardashian bravely shares 'Vogue' cover.

Kim Kardashian's no-makeup 'Vogue' cover makes no-makeup selfies look like amateur hour.

Kim Kardashian is going to be featured in Vogue España, and she just posted the issue cover on her Instagram. But here's the shocking twist that no one ever saw coming: she's not wearing makeup! It's like a no-makeup selfie, but instead of being taken in the dim privacy of a celebrity's luxurious extra bathroom for the sake of a powerful and/or confusing political statement, it's on the cover of a fashion magazine. Kim K. wrote:

Vogue Spain Cover! We did the whole shoot without makeup! Can't wait for you to see it!

As unprecedented as this development is, I think we need to take a moment and reflect on what Tyra Banks wrote in the caption of her own no-makeup selfie:

You know how people say #nofilter but you know there's a freakin' filter on their pic? Or maybe there's a smidge of retouching going on but they're lying and saying it's all raw & real?

Sure, Kim might not be wearing any makeup, but that airbrushed Vogue cover could probably be hashtagged #manymanyfilters. We'll have to wait until the issue comes out to find out what Kim's no-makeup thesis is, but it's going to be hard to prove a point about harsh beauty standards when you're still observing them, but through technology instead of foundation. Yes, that's right, I'm saying airbrushing is robot makeup!

Skip to 2:33 if you don't want any background and just want to stare into the abyss.

John Hoover is an author, underwater photographer, and professional diver, but that doesn't mean he's immune to the overwhelming power of the ocean. In this clip, you can watch him be bodily sucked into a churning vortex of powerful currents while diving off the coast of Maui, Hawaii. It will make you afraid to ever go into the water again, which is a good thing. There's much to fear in there.

Thankfully, Hoover was fine after this incident. He surfaced 50 yards away only minutes later. Sometimes, the sea is merciful. But it only does that to keep us guessing.

This video is actually a few years old, but it's gone viral all over again in the past week, because it's so fascinatingly terrifying. We felt compelled to share it, because everyone should think about death sometimes. Happy summer!
