Paris Rosen Crash Video | Motocross Rider Fails To Fully Flip Forward At X Games 16

Posted: 31 Jul 2010 10:21 AM PDT

Motocross rider Paris Rosen had a nasty incident at X Games 16 on Friday night. He tried and failed to pull off a front flip during the best trick competition, and ended up in hospital.

Watching live must have been bad enough, but watching the replay on repeat endlessly really shows the bone-crunching reality of what happened.

Rosen just never seemed to get the flip started, rolling forward far too slowly to complete the maneuver before the ground came up to meet him. He landed on his back, which from that height is bad news.

Let’s hope Paris is OK. Initial news from the hospital suggests he’ll be relatively fine. We all make mistakes in different facets of our lives, but when you’re taking part in an extreme sport the consequences are worse than normal.

Amazing Ultimate Frisbee Catch (Video) | Put This Guy In The Olympics

Posted: 30 Jul 2010 05:23 PM PDT

Currently, Ultimate Frisbee is not considered worthy of the Olympic games. This clip, on the other hand, proves otherwise.

I’d prefer to see incredible catches like this over shot-put any day.

Before seeing this clip, I have to admit, it never occurred to me that professional Ultimate Frisbee even existed. Being a long-time fan of under-appreciated sports like Badminton and Rugby, I was instantly intrigued.

The slow-mo replay at the 41 second mark shows how truly incredible the dive was. I’m sure his ribs hurt like hell the next day!

The Best Dog In The World Video | Aussie’s Canine Friend Fetching A Beer From Fridge

Posted: 30 Jul 2010 04:46 PM PDT

I’m a cat person rather than a dog person. I can’t help it, cats just suit my temperament and personality a lot more than dogs do. However, sometimes I see a dog that I would like to make friends with.

This dog is one of those dogs.

I like my beer, and it has to be cold, so what better than a dog happy and willing to fetch a cold one from the fridge on an evening? Nothing, that’s what.

This 17-month-old Australian Kelpie called Ollie even returns on demand to close the fridge door. How cool is that?

There’s only one thing left to do: train the dog to open the beer for you as he walks the short distance from the fridge. But you can’t have everything, I guess.

Fat Man Gatecrashes News Broadcasts Video | Meet Paul Yarrow

Posted: 30 Jul 2010 04:03 PM PDT

Most of you will not know the name Paul Yarrow, but if you watch British news broadcasts chances are that you’ve seen this portly, fairly unattractive man before.

The unfortunate looking Brit has gatecrashed more than 100 news broadcasts this year for BBC1, ITV, Channel 4, Sky News, and Al Jazeera.

Yarrow says he’s making a statement to simply be yourself. He added that there are too many beautiful people on TV these days and he hoped to change that.

He sure is, one news broadcast at a time. I’d say this certainly isn’t the last we’ve seen of Mr Yarrow.
