5-Years of Hitchhiking around the world is Finally Over

Do people really have good intentions? Well that’s what Jeremy Marie of Caen, France, set out to do 5 long years ago – His mode of transportation…Hitchhiking, yes hitchhiking. What better way to get in touch with the local population and make friends than a man and his bag and an old pair of sneakers.

Mom Embarasses the Hell out of Son – Demands ‘Proof of Life’ when he Stops Posting on Facebook

This is one of the outcomes of not posting on Facebook…or at least what happens when you ‘friend’ your mom. 25-year-old Garrett Hand and his girlfriend Jamie Neal went on a trek from their home in California to South America for a little R&R and some serious partying. They left last November and began a

This is what Happens when you get too Drunk on a Plane

Redditor Mezane snapped this photo on what looks like a very relaxing flight from Reykjavik, Iceland to JFK yesterday. This drunken passenger was so unruly that the flight crew had to restrain him and what better way to restrain a drunken idiot on a plane than by taping him to his seat…Lucky for him the

The $2 Million Luxury Motorhome – Ferrari not Included

This is an example of what you can own if you work hard. What it must be like to be so filthy, stinking rich that your state-of-the-art vacation motor home has its own garage, were you can neatly store your $276,000 Ferrari 458. This 40-foot long Volkner Mobile Performance Bus features a hidden garage tucked

$1.5 Billion – The Pool so Big you can Sail Boats on it

When was the last time you were in a hotel swimming pool so massive, that you could sail boats in it? The enormous man-made pool, set along the coastline at Chile’s San Alfonso del Mar Resort, is larger than 20 Olympic-size pools and holds a whopping 66 million gallons of water. Not only is the

Melbourne’s Laneways Covered in Graffiti

There’s nothing like the way out colorful urban art that covers just about every square inch of Rutledge Lane just off Hosier Lane in Melbourne. Some of these photos don’t give enough justice to how cool Melbourne’s laneways really are. It’s truly forever changing/evolving so you can’t get attached to a particular piece… You can

Travel Around the World in Six Hours by Tube just like in Futurama

Just like oil going through a pipeline, the future of travel may soon involve jumping into a tube in New York and getting off in Japan for some lunch time sushi. Evacuated Tube Transport (ETT) is an airless, frictionless form of transport which, its designers say, is safer, cheaper and quieter than trains or aeroplanes…and

$1B of TSA Body Scanners made Worthless by Blog

How do you fix the abuse that 200,000 passengers face from the TSA on a daily basis… Just simply demonstrate how the TSA’s nude body scanner program is nothing but a fraud. This video is not intended to teach anyone how to commit criminal acts, nor is intended to help “the terrorists”, but sometimes it

The Best Place in the World to be Shipwrecked

This is the one place in the world I wouldn’t mind being shipwrecked… but with my luck I’d end up on an iceberg somewhere in Alaska. Zakynthos Shipwreck bay…The beach of Navagio or Shipwreck or even Zakynthos smugglers cove is the most famous of Zakynthos beaches and one of the most famous of all Greece.
