copy_7_1_2 Dancepants Kinetic Music Player Allows You to Listen to Music as Long as You run

Inesa Malafej and Arunas Sukarevicius from Lithuania must love music and have a great body. The designers must love their musk so much that they can’t stop listening to music while running or working out. They have lunched the cool Dancepants Kinetic Music Player which generates electricity when you run which is in turn used by the mp3 player.

So long as you are running, you will have the mp3 player playing. If you stop running you may end up not being able to listen to music. It is an amazing idea I must say. When you are in the park, you could jog for many minutes and listen to your favourite music all along. Just make sure you hear if someone is calling out your name from behind. The MP3 player can be easily kept in your pockets.

Spiderman at work: Sticking a Porsche over your front door!

gil-dezer-porsche Spiderman at work: Sticking a Porsche over your front door!

I know, it sounds like a Photoshop gimmick that just made its way onto the net, but when we double checked this claim it turns out that it actually is true! So, there are many car fanatics across the globe (millions) and many others who specifically love the Porsche, but surely none can compete with the sheer craziness of Gil Dezer. This dud was wacky enough (and we mean that in a real good way) to actually take the help of a crane, go through plenty of trouble and let go of a driving option to put a 1950 Porsche Spyder 550 on the top of his 8,000-square-foot condo! And when you look at it, it does look like the work of Spiderman; just that there are no strings attached!

It took an entire team of technicians, a crane and plenty of modifications to get the Spyder 550 up there and now Gil can control its headlights and horn from a touchscreen placed besides the door. Cool and crazy at the same time Gil could obviously afford to hang a car for as an indoor decorative as he own another 7 Porsches too (We told you he was a fanatic!)

absolut-icebar-1 Freeze Yourself in the Literally Chilled Out Absolut Icebar

Sometimes I do not understand why certain places are so famous, in spite of not being all that great. However, the Absolut Icebar in Stockholm is an example of how architecture can become famous for actually being totally cool. The glasses, the shots, the bar and the decor at the Absolut Icebar are made of ice. Patrons would be given ponchos and gloves to protect themselves.

However, if you are sipping beer from a glass made of ice. Wouldn’t your lips get stuck to the glass and wouldn’t you need emergency medical care? These are the questions that enter my mind when it comes to the Absolut Icebar. However, thanks to the ice, the bar twinkles and shines more than regular bars and thus you would look really glamorous.

imagesfillet_small Cranial Fillets: A Step behind Cannibalism?

Here is something that you would NOT want to eat: Female cranial fillets. While it not only highly misogynist to have these manufactured, it is actually more disturbing than misogyny. The facial features can be eaten and it is not known what kind of meat these fillets are prepared from.

That makes the whole Female Cranial Fillets deal sound more suspicious and might encourage violence against women. Each of these fillets ranges between $7 and $8, and some fillets even have vivid human expressions. These kinds of products may desensitize people to carry out attacks and also, it might lead to a serious degradation of the mind.
