I’ve come across two fun little videos on Epic Win FTW – the first of freerunner Damien Walters. You thought those fantastic fight scenes in the Matrix and the Jet Li movies where people fly off walls and leap over impossible obstacles are all CGI or on wires? Well maybe not, because this guy (who is a stunt man on several recent movies including Kick Ass) can do it for real – unbelievable!
The second just tickled me – it’s a video of musical tesla coils which were shown at the sci-fi/opensource Penguicon 5 Conference in 2007. Stick around for the second piece of music that they play, which starts at 1 minute and 40 seconds – it’s absolutely worth the wait and entirely appropriate given the nature of these devices!
