A video of a Wall of Death attraction in India, where life is probably still cheap enough to make this possible. This is probably more dangerous for the spectators than some realize...
This is a follow up from my post 1.25 years ago, but I still think it is cooler with the lion.

Bright College Days
Tom Lehrer's funny Bright College Days song:
Bright college days, O carefree days that fly,
To thee we sing with our glasses raised on high.
Let’s drink a toast as each of us recalls
Ivy-covered professors in ivy-covered halls.
Turn on the spigot,
Pour the beer and swig it,
And gaudeamus ur-igit.
Here’s to parties we tossed,
To the games that we lost,
We shall claim that we won them some day.
To the girls young and sweet,
To the spacious back seat
Of our roommate’s beat up Chevrolet.
To the beer and benzedrine,
To the way that the dean
Tried so hard to be pals with us all.
To excuses we fibbed,
To the papers we cribbed
From the genius who lived down the hall.
To the tables down at Mory’s (wherever that may be)
Let us drink a toast to all we love the best.
We will sleep through all the lectures,
And cheat on the exams,
And we’ll pass, and be forgotten with the rest.
Oh, soon we’ll be out amid the cold world’s strife.
Soon we’ll be sliding down the razor blade of life.
Ready?
But as we go our sordid sep’rate ways,
We shall ne’er forget thee, thou golden college days.
Hearts full of youth,
Hearts full of truth,
Six parts gin to one part vermouth.
Bright college days, O carefree days that fly,
To thee we sing with our glasses raised on high.
Let’s drink a toast as each of us recalls
Ivy-covered professors in ivy-covered halls.
Turn on the spigot,
Pour the beer and swig it,
And gaudeamus ur-igit.

Capoeira
Capoeira is an Afro-Brazilian art form that combines elements of martial arts, music, and dance. It was created in Brazil by slaves brought from Africa, especially from present day Angola, sometime after the sixteenth century.
Participants form a roda, or circle, and take turns either playing musical instruments, singing, or ritually sparring in pairs in the center of the circle. The sparring is marked by fluid acrobatic play, feints, and extensive use of sweeps, kicks, and headbutts.

Some Cool Handpainting...
An excerpt from Damn Cool Pics:
Body painting is a type of art in which paint is applied to a part of skin. It is considered one of the ancient types of art. Unlike tattoos, body painting is temporary. Lasting for just few hours or ion some cases a few weeks. Hand painting art is the application of make-up or paint on to the hands to look like any object or mostly to depict animals.
Following art is created by Mario Mariotti (1936-1997), an Italian artist from Florence, famous for his amazing hand painting art.
Artist Guido Daniele who has specialized in body artwork. His hand painting which he dubs as ‘Handimals‘ is appreciated around the world.

What has our Society (Part Deux)
Waterskiing with a backhoe. O.k. So this isn't as bad as the guy taking a dump in a public plant, but there is something... I dunno about this after you stop laughing at it...
What our society has come to...
Taking a poop in a plant?! RLY?! The lack of common decency (not to mention hygiene) here is amazing...
Given the zooming of the camera, it seems to me that the feed was being monitored so it also surprises me that they security folk didn't do something about this.
