All those gorillapods.
That mario bit was awesome! Very nicely done.
The new This Too Shall Pass
The thing about Goldberg machines is that if ONE thing goes wrong, it fucks up completely. Good trade off for cool things.
Oh god why did they hammer that lens.
Must have been broken, or the fact it's a canon lens :v: /nikon elitism

Isn't penny auctions a scam site?
I want that X-ray scanner.
Must feel like shit if one of the mechanisms fails
Most expensive one I've seen
I like how they referenced the "This Too Shall Pass" Rube Goldberg video.
[QUOTE=Dlaor-guy;31099405]I want that X-ray scanner.[/QUOTE] It's an ipad. They just filmed the bags passing through and edited the video in post, and downloaded the video to the ipad.
[QUOTE=Lemonator;31099320]Isn't penny auctions a scam site?[/QUOTE] Not technically. You pay ~$0.60 per bid, depending on the site, and so that's where the money comes from because you can only bid one cent at a time. So if a Nikon D90 sells for $15.00, that's fifteen hundred bids, aka 1500 x .6 = $900. And if it sells for $30.00 that means the website makes $1800 minus the cost of the camera. And if you bid on it 200 times you're out $120 with nothing to show, and it's very easy to get carried away. They offer you to let you use the money you spend bidding to put towards the full price, but it's usually [i]way[/i] higher than even the MSRP. So you "can" win, but if you don't you're screwed, and they're profiting either way.
Ooops! I blinked guys... Lets reset it...
