Break dancers mimicking robotoid movements might have a tougher time to come!
Robots are set to be softer in touch and more flexible in movements to allow them to perform more complex tasks! But unlike in Terminator movies, there will be no human tissue on them, they will inherently be made from softer material!

A gun which doesn't kill you!
This is probably the best one I have heard about warfare!
Here is a gun that sends heat rays that make you feel as if you are catching fire, but causes no real damage! Criminals and enemies will apparently feel the intense heat and drop their weapons!
Great to use in civilian dense areas, and security zone areas..... no collateral damage!!

This is probably the first time one of this species has been videotaped alive! It died soon thereafter.

Stealing GPS? Couldn't be dumber!
Ha! Ha! Ha!

A car buried 50 years back to be dug up now, to fulfill a 50 year old contest!
This is weird! Some people had buried a car 50 years ago, in 1957. The instructions were to award the car and $100 to the winner of a contest held in 1957.
The results were to be announced in 2007 and the prize given in the same year!
And what was the contest? A simple question - what would be the population of Tulsa county in 2007! The replies were sealed and buried in 1957 along with the car, to be opened in 2007, compared with the census and the person with the answer closest to the actual population was to be awarded the prize this year!!!

Aeroplane design copy of Flying Dinosaurs.
Nothing new? Well, you can't be sure until you read the article!
It says, flying dinosaurs, which were probably the earliest ancestors of birds, had the same aviation design as the earliest airplanes designed by man (the Wright Brothers)! And then as evolution continued with the flying creatures, they evolved into the present day bird designs, which, coincidentally, is the story of airplanes too, although much faster.
The newer planes are designed like the modern birds, while the earlier planes were designed like the earlier birds!

Half swallowed up by a shark - comes ot alive!
I would never envy such a man... he was swallowed half in two large gulps by a shark! The first gulp taking in his head and the second bite piercing his torso!
Then the man fights back and get out of the powerful jaws, and goes on to live!

Do you Pillow-Fight? May be you could take it up as a career!
Wow! This is one of the wonderful sports that can be!
I used to find pillow-fighting really cute and a friendly fight. Very much like two young puppies playfully pushing and biting each other in the morning sun!
Pillow fights can be a pleasant way to express mock displeasure... kids, sppuses, siblings... all use the down-filled cloth bag for a bit of fun filled contest!
But here is a real contest - The Pillow Fighting League!

Deliberately crippling babies, even before they are born!
Now this is outright scary... a perfect example of an experiment gone completely awry. Like what we used to see in science fiction movies!
The idea of genetic intervention to screen out defectvie embryos which might simply get aborted or be born with severe birth defects is one thing!
But the very thought of changing the genetic structure of unborn normal babies to induce defects in them sounds horrible to me!
Read on for the horrifying revelation!
