Remember Choo-San's original series of painted body modifications? WELL SHE'S BACK WITH MORE. These ones seem to have a zipper/buttons theme. Now, for all who are wondering what I look like under this bitchin' "I BRAKE FOR TURTLES" t-shirt, the first picture after the jump i... / Continue →

Seen here on the back of a man who looks wider than he is tall, this is a giant God of War themed tattoo inked by Moscow tattoo artist Roman Kuznetsov. I'm not sure who the guy with the actual tattoo is, but he's definitely not somebody I'd want to get in a fight with at the b... / Continue →

This is a series of nude yoga experts bodypainted and posing to look like motorcycles. The shoot was executed by creative firm i.d.e.a. as promotional material for the Progressive International Motorcycle Show. No word how many MPG's the lady-bikes get, but I'm hoping a gall... / Continue →

Scientists are investigating a well preserved woolly mammoth carcass discovered in Siberia with the hopes of finding living cells inside and cloning one of the beasts. It's a far cry from a dinosaur, but I'd still ride one into battle against the giants. Russia's North-Easter... / Continue →

This is 'Breakfast Time', a series of digital paintings by artist Guillermo Fajardo featuring lifelike versions of cereal mascots. This is Cap'n 'Come Sit On My Lap' Crunch here, but there's Tony the Tiger, the Trix Rabbit and Count Chocula after the jump. Admittedly, Guiller... / Continue →

Note: Consider this your retroactive freaky-deaky picture warning. A hacker going by the name of Barnaby Jack demonstrated his ability to hack pacemakers at a recent computer security conference in Australia, proving that fake boner pill emails may be the least of your grandpa... / Continue →

This is the $424 Matt Nylon Hooded Down Jacket. It has a vented hood with integrated goggles (plus a sweet ass pom-pom on top!). Not only will you look cool, but you won't lose any precious body heat out of your uncovered face and neck. Just don't burp in there after eating ... / Continue →

Seen here looking suspiciously like the girl I had a crush on in high school does now (burn Allison -- I'm glad you turned me down for Homecoming!), the Japanese Otton frog has a fifth "false" finger with a hidden bone blade inside for slashing male opponents and positioning fe... / Continue →

This is a series of realistically painted Pokemons by DeviantARTist arvalis (aka RJ Palmer -- check out his page for ultra high-res shots). It says in his little bio he likes dinosaurs, so we're pretty similar. Except I LOVE dinosaurs. I am dino fan numero uno. My buddy Ter... / Continue →

Note: Click HERE for a nicer, higher-res version. Geekologie reader Josiah got married to his beautiful bride over the summer, and had the photographer take a shot of the entire wedding party pretending to be zombies and he and his wife as zombie slayers, then Photoshopped the... / Continue →

Some people go all out with crazy Christmas decorations. Some go all out for Halloween. And then there's this crazy person who made a bunch of Star Wars character scarecrows and put them on display in their front yard, hopefully year round. And even if they don't leave them ... / Continue →

Because taze first and ask questions/apologize later seems to be the protocol these days, police in England tazed 61-year old blind man Colin Farmer after mistaking his white cane for a samurai sword. To be fair though, police were on the lookout for a man who actually WAS run... / Continue →

This is a conceptual trampoline bridge designed for a Paris bridge-imagining competition (those exist) by Atelier Zündel Cristea. It consists of tubular inflatable walls with a series of giant trampolines strung between them so you can jump your way across the river. I'M GONN... / Continue →

Two teeth-related posts in a row -- what are the chances?! Plus if you count the burn-healing oral strips article, that makes THREE mouth posts in 24 hours. The American Dental Association should give me an honorary membership! "Settle for a sticker and toothbrush?" DONE. ... / Continue →

Because people are SICK and TWISTED, here's a pair of shoes that have 1,050 denture teeth embedded in the soles. Can you imagine the sound they must make walking on pavement? Not a good one. That said, I just made a pair with teeth I stole from the dentist because the hygien... / Continue →

Please tell me it comes with that external speaker. Apparently Kia and DC Comics have teamed up to create a line of one-of-a-kind Justice League themed cars, using a different model for each character in the group. This is the Batman car here, built using a Kia Optima SXL. A... / Continue →

Note: Guy drops a line of expletives at the 0:20 mark. They really add something though so watch that part if you can. This is a video of Toughguy McShatteredtailbone trying to cannonball into a frozen pool in Germany. Unfortunately for dude's coccyx, the pool is like REALLY... / Continue →

Damn bro, now make one for busted-ass eyes. Because people won't stop eating and drinking things that burn their mouths, scientists have created a dissolvable oral strip that can be applied directly to the burn, "providing instant relief and promoting healing." Healing -- heal... / Continue →

Ugh. Apparently PSY stopped by the set of The Wolverine for some reason and did his little pony dance with Hugh Jackman. It ranks high on my list of things I never want to see. Not as high as "my penis breaking off in my hand," but it's up there. Hit the jump for a crappy... / Continue →

Want your wedding band to serve as a constant reminder of your love for your spouse AND how bitchin' Stargate was? Well WeddingBandDesign has you covered, homey. The ring with the black blocks can actually spin in the setting, just like a real Stargate! "There's no such thin... / Continue →

Alpha Centauri is the closest star to earth besides our sun. It's four light-years away. That's the distance light travels in four years. In the grand scheme of the universe, that's not very far, but it would still make for a really long road trip and you'd probably wind up ... / Continue →

This is a video from visual effecter Freddie Wong featuring an R/C car police chase shot to look like one from an action movie. They even built little set pieces like a fruit stand to crash through. That was a nice touch. A punch? A punch is a mean touch. A slap on the ass... / Continue →
-
Note: Brobro drops a solid f-bomb at the end of the video after the singing stops. This is a video of a guy kind of singing the Halo theme in an oil chamber. It sounds heavenly. What the hell these guys were doing in an oil chamber is beyond me, but maybe they're the ones wh... / Continue →

Japanese artist Macaon makes figures of famous characters out of cut up beer and soda cans. No word if he needs somebody to help drink all those beers, but I know somebody interested if he does. SPOILER: It's me. Shocking, I know, but I believe in supporting the arts. Hit t... / Continue →

This is a video of a dude solving a Rubik's cube in 25-seconds while doing one-armed pushups. Impressive, but I just got finished solving a Rubik's cube in 15-seconds doing NO-ARMED pushups. "Are no-armed pushups when you just lay there?" YEP. "And did you actually solve th... / Continue →

These are some realistic renderings of Popeye created by artist Lee Ramao. They're really impressive, I was just hoping Popeye would be a little more handsome in the face department. Here he kind of looks like me. That's not something anybody would hope for. Hit the jump ... / Continue →

I meant to post this yesterday when Felix Baumgartner record-breaking freefall was still news, but I didn't because I forgot and now I'm late to the game. And you know what? I have every intention of fouling out and leaving early too, so there. This is a 1:350 reenactment of... / Continue →

This is a gallery of some of the most disgusting and depressing home offices, the majority of which look like crime scenes. Especially the basement ones. Some of them aren't even PROPER basements, just crawl-spaces. Listen: if you have a computer room set up in the crawl spa... / Continue →

This is an astroturf covered car for sale on eBay in Australia. Why cover a car in astroturf? Because that's what you do when you have a 1998 Mitsubishi Magna with 218,000 miles on it. That, or take the plates off and drive it into a river. This is your once in a lifetime c... / Continue →

Bruce Munro, an English light-artist, is building a 16-foot glowing nipple out of 2,730 plastic bottles and fiber optic cable atop a hill to make the whole thing look like a giant boob and promote breast cancer awareness. If successful, it will be the second largest breast I'v... / Continue →

This is Phylllodes Imperialis, the Imperial Fruit Sucking Moth, in its caterpillar form. It has a giant skull and eyeballs on its head to scare away predators. It worked on me and I'm not even a predator. There are some much better shots after the jump courtesy of planet.ner... / Continue →

Remember the series of bald guys with breaking water balloon "wigs"? Well here's another series of the same thing, except with bald women. As you can see, this lady here looks suspiciously like a cyborg, so she probably short-circuited right after the picture was taken. Remi... / Continue →

Because this is the sad, sad world we live in, Computer Choppers (think West Coast Choppers, then forget West Coast Choppers and think of a company that just coats electronics in expensive metals) is selling 24k gold-plated MacBooks. They're perfect for the person who wants th... / Continue →

This is Chris Todd in his homemade floating hamster wheel boat. It's basically a pontoon boat that's powered by walking in the giant wheel. Chris wanted to walk the thing all 66-miles across the Irish Sea from Wales to the east coast of Ireland, but had to stop halfway due to... / Continue →

In news that shouldn't surprise anyone who wrote Peter Jackson after watching Lord of the Rings and demanded a Director's Cut with way more boobs, Middle Earth is basically all dudes. There are SOME chicks, just not very many. Who knows, maybe their genetics work different wh... / Continue →

Scientists have created a hard drive out of sapphire and etched with platinum that will allegedly store data for over a million years. That's a long time. The drive was created so that governments can keep long-lasting records of where they've buried nuclear waste, that way w... / Continue →

Yesterday morning Felix Baumgartner jumped out of a capsule over 24-miles high and set the records for the highest manned balloon trip, highest skydive, fastest skydive (getting up to ~833MPH, or Mach 1.24), and the most people to turn into a live Youtube event (~8-million). H... / Continue →

My God it even LOOKS like something that would pee out of its mouth. This is a Chinese softshell turtle. It pees out of it's mouth. That's nasty. It's being studying extensively by a Singaporean researcher named Shit Fun Chew, which the article I read made a big deal about ... / Continue →

So apparently the Ukrainian navy is training dolphins for combat by attaching guns and knives to their heads to attack enemies. Wait -- the Ukraine has a navy? The program reportedly includes training dolphins to search for mines and marking them with buoys. But Ukraine also ... / Continue →
