Man Builds Art Slotcar Tracks, They Look Fun
Martin Markeli is an artist that builds a lot of customized slotcar tracks. Some of his tracks are pretty intricate, which explains their up to €10,000 (~$14,800) pricetag. I know I want one, but I'll probably just work on building my own for way, way cheaper. Mine is going to have Ninja Turtles and Barbie dolls standing around watching the race. I may even dress them up provocatively if I'm in the mood. Make sure to check out the extra pictures after the jump, along with the videos. But be warned -- the 3rd video is NSFW because Martin spliced pictures of naked women into it. Proving beyond a reasonable doubt that he's 10 year old.
And that the video won't last long on Youtube.
For the pictures and videos, follow me over the rainbow.

This is a video created by Graeme Taylor aboard a high-speed train using a high-speed camera, replayed in slow motion (just like the title says!). The result is pretty spectacular. It's like Max Payne/Matrix "bullet-time". So watch it and enjoy. Then, get all comatose on tu... / Continue →
