The General Video Thread (The Good, The Strange, & The Unusual)

[hockeyfan1]

Alright everyone.  Thought I'd come up with another topic thread and think this one will be different from the usual videos/YouTube stuff & trends.

Feel free to post an article or story that contains a link with an accompanying video that showcases the topic at hand.


I'll begin...

Now for something completely different, or shall we say, a completely different swimming pool.  Sure, sure, typical pool, eh?
Not quite.  Guess again...and this is no ordinary pool:

Ever wonder just what the top coasters (rollercoasters) are with the highest peaks amd scariest drops?

Hint:  One is in Canada.

Move over, Fido.  This feline (a Maine Coone breed) loves to go hiking with her owner up the Canadian Rockies.  He loves swimming, paddle boarding, and the like.

Hmm.  A very different feline, indeed.

Well, it looks like baby no like what she sees...it?s rare to see a baby (girl) just born with a scowl for an expression.  Have no fear they say for she began to cry shortly thereafter.

Okay, brace yourselves.  If there?s anyone who has a fear or phobia of looking at snakes, then this video is not for you.

Otherwise for the curious, watch how a python that swallowed a beach towel gets the vets to yank it out from it.

Imagine...solving Rubik?s cube in midair; a race car driver with no arms but deftly using his feet to steer; a near-disastrous shark attack; a helicopter stunt crash that caused nary a scratch to the pilot, etc.

Extreme situations.  Take a look...
