This badass waterslide is like an LED-fueled psychedelic trip through space.

The Electric Waterslide Acid Test.

The Bad 1 Water Park in Bremerhaven, Germany, is the home to the most far-out, psychedelic waterslide this side of the 5th dimension, The Black Hole. The ride starts completely dark, but soon you are surrounded in rings and streaks of flashing, colored LED lights.

The Black Hole will make you feel like you're zooming through space at warp speed or cruising though the ending sequence of 2001: A Space Odyssey or you're taking a cab home drunk through the Queens Midtown Tunnel.

If LSD Flashbacks: The Ride is not scary enough for you, check out this new fad in water slide design: the trap door. Man, some lucky teenager gets to play waterpark Mister Burns all summer. What a great gig!


The "Motown" cast wanted to break out into song in a public place, too.

How badly does the cast of "Motown" wish they were the cast of "The Lion King" right now?

As the Internet knows, last week, a phone video of two Broadway casts having an airport singoff when their flights were delayed went crazy viral. Now, conveniently, there's a video of the cast of Motown singing and dancing through the aisles of an airplane. This one seems to have professional shooting and editing, a choreographed routine, and a "cameo" from Virgin Group founder Richard Branson. It's housed on Virgin Atlantic's YouTube page, because this is an airplane commercial.

The performers are wonderful, though. Hopefully they'll get to star in a less corporate viral video one day. Until then, they'll just have to settle for being awesome on Broadway.

Charged with the difficult task of fixing someone's permanently inked bad decision, tattoo artist Lindsay Baker of Northampton, Massachusetts did an incredible job. As you can see above, she made one man's poor excuse for a Pokémon tattoo into a piece of meta skin-art.

The original tattoo was so crappy it looked like it actually may have been done by a chubby little drunk rodent. It's not surprising that the tattoo artist who did the shoddy Pikachu tattoo had been drinking, Baker told BuzzFeed. Which is why the inclusion of a beer bottle in this tattoo really brings the whole story full circle.

Here's Lindsay Baker hard at work:

Watch a beautiful wedding video get ruined by a flying robot.

The drone filming this video seems to be the drunkest one at the wedding.

Sure, you could blame this epic failure on a drone, but let us not forget that robots are only as smart as the people operating them. And sometimes people get distracted and run into stuff, which is why this drone crashed into a tree while attempting to get the perfect aerial shot of a newly wedded couple.

The photographer clearly has a sense of humor about it, since the calming soundtrack he incorporated is interrupted by a record-scratch when the drone crashes. Also, he probably realized he had a viral sensation on his hands, because the only thing people love more than weddings is watching things go wrong at weddings.

I hope this couple's marriage outlasts the manufacturer's warranty of this guy's drone.

Cyndi Lauper has a great reaction to hearing Peter and Stewie Griffin sing her songs.

Cyndi Lauper had the time of her life listening to Stewie and Peter Griffin sing her songs.

Ultimate endorsement from the Pop Queen.(via YouTube)

As a world renowned recording artist, it's probably hard to listen to people attempt to sing your songs. Unless those people are actually cartoons, then it's not only bearable, it's totally enjoyable. On The Graham Norton Show, Seth McFarlane sang Lauper's timeless classics in character, serenading us with 'Time After Time' as Stewie, and 'True Colors' as the infamous Peter Griffin.

Judging by her glorious reaction, Lauper approved of both cover songs. Here's the full video:

Now that I've heard the Griffin family's renditions of these over-karaoked tracks, I'll never be able to hear them in a karaoke bar again. Or I could stop going to karaoke bars, but I think we all know that's never going to happen.

And now, a morsel for your daily motivation:

Take a moment to look at Maxwell Barrett's completely perfect senior yearbook quote.


The other quotes don't stand a chance against this gem. (via Twitter)

How great is that?! I want to high five him through the Internet, then again in person, then again metaphorically by writing this article. It's thoughtful, funny teenagers like Maxwell Barrett that make me hopeful for the future generation and less afraid of teenagers as a species. The class of 2015 have been making some serious waves with their wittyyearbookquotes, and this one is certainly a top contender.

If you take a look at Maxwell's Twitter feed, you'll see that his quote has been covered by a ton of news outlets, and he's receiving a huge outcry of support. He told Today, "I am in awe... I cannot express how amazing it is to see the amount of support I am being given and the love that has been shown towards me. I cannot wrap my head around the fact that people from all different backgrounds are being inspired by my story."

It's so wonderful that this teenager came out of the closet to find it's much brighter on the other side.

Since becoming Internet famous, Maxwell's tweets have been on point. Here are some of my favorites:

If he makes faces like this at just 2 years old, it's safe to say this kid is going to be all of our bosses one day.

We can all learn a lesson about work ethic from the toddler in this video playing Rage Against The Machine's Bulls On Parade. This tiny human takes Guitar Hero more seriously than most of us do our jobs.

His extreme concentration is unparalleled as he strikes the cords. Notice the barefoot power stance, keeping his balance as he jams harder than Ozzy Osbourne in his animal-biting heyday. Even his bumbling baby brother, who displays some musical interest in his own right, doesn't break the laser focus of a the mini rock legend.

I can't wait to follow this child's rise from Guitar Hero aficionado to sold-out-arena-super-star.

Lately, Amy Schumer keeps doing things that make her not only my favoritecomedian, but also my favorite person. According to Page Six, while dining at Peter's Clam Bar, she had an "engaging, animated conversation with her server, Ryan... a college student working two jobs to fund his education."

Then, Amy Schumer left Ryan a 408% tip.

Waitstaff: rejoice! Wake from your restaurant-fueled nightmares! There are people out there who will use their wealth to help pull up from the dregs of the hellish foodservice industry and make your dreams come true! May you never again have to fill the sugars and wipe down the menus before your manager yells at you to finish your sidework!

Amy Schumer reminded us that her generosity knows no bounds, and she's dope as hell.

Have you seen the cringe-worthy tweets about Benedict Cumberbatch and Sophie Hunter's new baby?

It's wonderful news that a famous couple had a baby, but the headlines about it are unbearable.

Oxford University educated director, playwright, singer and actress Sophie Hunter gave birth to a baby boy yesterday. She is married to award-winning television and movie star Benedict Cumberbatch. How marvelous! A celebrity baby has been born! Unfortunately, people are calling it a #Cumberbaby, and that word is making my skin crawl. In fact, most of the headlines about it are just the worst.

First of all, there are the awful Cumber-baby references:

Then, there are the ones that fail to mention Sophie Hunter's pivotal involvement in the occasion:

Or when Sophie Hunter is simply referred to as "wife":

But I think this one takes the cake, combining "wife" with "Cumberbaby":


I get it. Benedict Cumberbatch is a household name, and not everyone knows he is married to Sophie Hunter. But the least we can do is mention the mother when announcing that she has brought a new human being into the world. It's the polite thing to do.

Going nowhere.

Imgur user beedat arrived at an event recently only to discovered that she'd shown up in the exact same outfit as the floor. So embarrassing! No wonder she buried her face in her hands in shame.

Since the picture went viral, it's drawn comparisons to The Dress, which caused controversy when some people saw it as blue and black and some people saw it as gold and white.

The big controversy here: who wore it better?

I'm gonna have to go with the floor on this one. So chic. So now.

One way to avoid a paternity test is to send your doppelganger, and that's what Thomas Kenny did.


Ugh, that face.(via The Birmingham Mail)

Thomas Kenny is 25-years-old and he clearly thinks he knows everything. In 2012 he was already the father of 2 children with his current girlfriend, when he met another lady who struck his fancy. He decided to spend some time with her, while carrying on with his other family on the weekends, I guess? She got pregnant, duh.


How does this dude find the time for the gym?(via Facebook)

According to The Birmingham Mail, he then pressured his new lady to get an abortion. Classy! She refused and Kenny realized he was looking down the barrel of a child support gun. Blam blam, buddy, you're gonna pay.

So he did what any normal, irresponsible and deluded young man in his early twenties would do. He sent a guy who looks just like him to the paternity test.

HOW COULD IT NOT WORK?


But he LOVES kids?!(via Facebook)

I haven't been able to find a description of this scene, or at what point in the process the switcheroo was discovered. But I picture it like this:

Lab Technician: Thomas Kenny?

Doppelganger: Uh...yes.

Lab Technician: Great just need to see some I.D.

Doppelganger: ... I left something in my car.

Fin.

Kenny finally went to court this week where he was sentenced to six months, suspended for 12 months, and ordered to pay £885 in compensation and £500 in costs, for fraud and also being a huge pain in the ass. Those aren't the technical terms, but it's basically what the issue was, right? Strangely, the mother of his most recent child wants nothing to do with him. Hopefully, this will be the most trouble she'll ever have to go through for child support.

Honestly, I shave my pits from personal preference. That's how it should be. If you have to live with the daily discomfort of having a muffler in your pit or the daily nuisance of shaving your stubblies, it's your decision. Every once in a while, this seems to come up for discussion again and, boy, do people get worked up about it. I remember when Paula Cole dared to appear at the VMAs to perform "Where Have All the Cowboys Gone?" and people lost their sh*t over her patches.

Haha, 1998. Anyway, the cycle has come again, seemingly sparked by a Chinese armpit hair competition. Now women all over Weibo (China's answer to Facebook) are posting their armpit selfies.


Flaunt 'em if you got 'em.(via BBC)

Pretty much any time a celebrity flashes those pits it's news, so it's cool to see regular ladies being like, "Hey, this is normal, lay off." When Jemima Kirke appeared on the red carpet with her sweat sponges showing it set so many people off she had to tweet at them to Shut It.

Yeah, can we stop talking about hairy pits being gross? It's far more normal to have body hair than not. If you want to show your own off (or freak out at people who do), go to Instagram and tag that Sh*t.

A lot of people think that thing that happened on "Game of Thrones" isn't what it seems.

Something major happened in the "Game of Thrones" season finale last night, and if you clicked on this post then any spoilers you see are obviously your own fault.

Okay. So as we all know, Jon Snow died when a bunch of his Night's Watch brothers stabbed him in the heart. Isn't that messed up?

But a lot of fans think Jon Snow might not really be dead. Or might not be fully dead. Or might be fully dead now, but could become less dead in the future. This is, after all, a world where people can wear a bunch of faces on top of each other.


(via HBO)

The theories are mostly based on details from the books. Fans who have read all of George R.R. Martin's works have known about Jon Snow's stabbing for four years, so they've had a lot of time to come up with ideas about what might be going on.

My favorite fan theory is that Jon wargs into his direwolf, Ghost. Remember how Bran Stark can leave his body and hop into the bod of nearby animals? Maybe Jon Snow's soul will live on in Ghost, and next season could be like a Homeward Bound-style spinoff co-starring the forgotten children of the forest. The evidence for this theory is that Melisandre vaguely prophesized in one of the books, "Now he was a man, now a wolf, now a man again," which could be about Jon Snow, and in the books Jon's last word is "Ghost."

Some fans also think that Jon Snow might be Azor Ahai, the messiah who Melisandre is obsessed with. She used to think it was Stannis, but no one likes Stannis anymore and he seemingly just got his head chopped off by Brienne. In the books, Melisandre says about Azor Ahai:

"When the red star bleeds and the darkness gathers, Azor Ahai shall be born again amidst smoke and salt to wake dragons out of stone."

Well, Jon Snow is definitely bleeding, as everyone remembers from that long last shot of blood pouring out of his body onto the snow (hey, like his name!). Melisandre also talks about Azor Ahai's mythical "burning sword." That could be Jon Snow's Valyrian steel weapon, which very awesomely shattered a White Walker recently.

So will Jon Snow be resurrected? Will he come back to life like Beric Dondarion, that guy who died so many times and kept popping back up? Will he have some kind of rebirth through fire, like that time Daenerys walked into a fire with her dragon eggs in season one? Will Melisandre, who just got back to Castle Black, wake him up with her magic? "Good morning, I just put on a fresh pot of king's blood."

Or might Jon Snow turn into a White Walker? He definitely seemed to be having a moment with that creepy head White Walker last week.


(via YouTube)

That's a lot to think about until next spring. Now can we get some fan theories about what happened when Sansa jumped off that wall? Please tell me she hops into a wolf's body, too.

This crazy couple got married at a Taylor Swift concert, then got an awesome surprise.

They got married in a parking lot and still manage to use mason jars.

Katy Harris and Chris Eisenmann must really be meant for each other. Harris is a huge Taylor Swift fan. I know, I know, who isn't? But most people probably don't plan their wedding around when T Swift is town, then get hitched tailgating outside the stadium. She had orignally gotten her fiancé to agree to a wedding on Swift's birthday, but an unspecified issue caused them to postpone it. I assume it was a conversation where a normal person was like, "What are you doing this for?" and they couldn't answer.

Apparently, they rallied, because they were both on board for this:

True Love is being weird in the same way. Congrats, you guys!

So what happened next? I think we can all guess. Princess Swift INVITED THEM BACKSTAGE eeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!

According to Philly.com, "The 25-year-old heard about the wedding and invited the couple backstage after her show, where model Cara Delevingne, Echosmith and actress Mariska Hargitay made surprise appearances onstage."

Mariska Hargitay?! That's someone I'd be excited to see at my wedding, but I'd probably freak out and not be able to walk down the aisle.

Or as Harris would post:

Dave Grohl was one of two musicians who rocked so hard this weekend they got serious on-stage injuries.

How hard did you rock this weekend? Probably not as hard as Dave Grohl and Michael Clifford.


Fractured bone. Burn victim. These two play HARD.(via Twitter/Twitter)

Dave Grohl and Michael Clifford were both seriously injured mid-performance this weekend, and that is probably the only thing these two men will ever have in common. Sure, they're both guitarists for bands that begin with the letter F, but the Venn Diagram of Foo Fighters fans and Five Seconds Of Summer fans are two circles with about a mile of space between them.

While performing in Sweden on Friday, Dave Grohl took a righteous tumble, breaking his Rock-and-Roll-Hall-of-Fame-inducted-leg. And he kept performing! Medical staff temporarily patched him up so they could finish the show, but when he went to the hospital later, x-rays confirmed he had broken his leg.

Then, during a show on Saturday in London, Michael Clifford stepped too close to the pyrotechnics and his hair caught on fire. I don't think anything this intense has ever happened to a band whose fans are screaming teenage girls. It's pretty scary, check it out:

Both guitarists are recovering from their injuries and will probably never again be mentioned in the same sentence.

Everyone is really impressed with this singer's physics-defying beer catch.

You know when you get a craving for an ice cold beer but you're crowdwalking through the audience at your own concert?

Someone in the crowd tossed a cup of beer at David Achter de Molen, lead singer of band John Coffey, while he was... indisposed. And somehow, even though he was being held up in the air by fans, he perfectly caught it with one hand, drank it, and tossed it.

People are giving the singer all the credit for the amazing catch, but it was also an impressive throw. That cup of beer flew threw the air and didn't seem to let out a drop. And it was an impressive beer, for doing such a good job staying in the cup.

I bet Achter de Molen is going to get a lot of beer cups thrown at him now that this video has over a million views. And I bet he's going to feel a crushing pressure to catch them all. But such is the price of fame.
