69 Officer?

Well I'm not really quite sure what to make of this one, but I'm sure it will capture the minds and attention of many men up and down the country!



As a young male who has been caught speeding by the police, I'm pretty sure if I had tried the tactic displayed in the video it would have got me nowhere - if not into more trouble...

Eos 550D + Nunchucks = Extreme slo-mo footage :D

So, after a bit of time out from blogging I hope to make a little return.

To update the past few weeks, I have had a motorbike crash, my laptop has died, I have been paid out for motorbike repair, I have bought a new laptop, I have had to buy a new screen to work with new laptop, I bought a new digital SLR camera and I have been playing with all new things a lot!

Here's my latest little experiment.



Shot on my new Canon Eos 550d at 60fps, conformed to 23.98fps using Cinema Tools and edited in Final Cut Pro. Music is 'Stompbox' by Overseer. The 60fps footage at the end is waaaay overkill for the human eye, but is great for slow motion footage.

Awesome.

!

Awesome Carlsberg + Sky 3D + Kelly Brook (!?!!) advert!

Well.. I wish the adverts at my local cinema were this good!



A proper good example of advertising companies taking new levels. Just had to share this one :D

Homemade DIY Nunchucks

So yesterday, I was at my very good mates house who I train with at kickboxing, and finally got the chance to learn how to use nunchuks. I liked it. I liked it a lot.

Ordered some off the net last night, but decided to make my own today :D

(I'd already made them by the time I took the pics, forgot to take along the way)

Using a piece of spare hardwood we had laying about, I measured 13 inches and marked it with some elec tape

Photobucket

cut them to size using hacksaw

Photobucket


drilled in two holes near the top and one through the middle from top down

Photobucket


laced in strong shoelace and tied together!

Photobucket



sanded down so nice and flat too somewhere in between...

Photobucket


Sorted :) They feel a very nice weight (quite light) for training with for the first time, the ones I have ordered are hardwood with a metal chain (5") with handle length of 12". The ones I have made here are 13" (but still 5" shoelace chain lol)

Here is my first video:



I do not pretend to be a master or expert, I have only just learnt the basics. I havent edited the video to cut out the bad bits, obviously i make a few mistakes but I like to think I am getting the hang of it.

You can even start customising your with electrical tape, and the like.

Disclaimer - A quick bit about me - i've been doing Ju Jitsu since the age of 7 - 18, currently also been kickboxing for 8 months.. martial arts is what i've grown up with so i'm not just a wannabe :)

Contact Lens Fun

Having worn contact lenses in both my eyes since the age of 13, I am used to that extremely annoying moment whilst rubbing one eye when the lens falls out.

Sometimes it will fall directly onto your hand you are using to rub your eye. Sometimes it will fall onto your jacket. Sometimes it will even fall onto the floor.

These new lenses I have been using for the past 5 months are monthly lenses, so one pair (that's two lenses) have to last a whole month. If one is lost, that kind of messes up that month with the involvement of a brand new lens mid-month - meaning I had to find the lost lens.

Luckily I was in my bedroom in front of the mirror, and I had seen the lens fall straight out my eye in a downward motion (thank you gravity). I then spent the next 20 minutes searching the floor with my face a few inches from the carpet, with one eye closed looking for one small piece of circular clear plastic. It was not on the floor, as far as I could tell.

I searched my t-shirt, my shoulders, "has it fallen onto my socks?" I asked myself. It was nowhere to be seen (please excuse bad pun). Retracing my steps back to the very moment it had made a break for freedom from my eye, I looked at the mirror itself.

Running my hands over the mirror downwards to the bottom proved fruitless, but it was at that exact moment I noticed something very circular and very clear protruding from the mirror frame at the very bottom.

Hello contact lens.

Photobucket

I had found my missing optical aid hanging on for dear life. With a quick soak in the cleaning solution, it was back in its rightful place sitting on top of my cornea :)

I think I did quite well considering I performed the whole search and rescue mission with only one eye open, obviously the one with a lens in!

Old Spice Ad: MEN - Take Note.. WOMEN - Take Even Closer Note!!!

This guy is possibly the best male I have ever seen in an advert. His voice, his look and his confidence. Coming from a heterosexual male these are quite odd things to say. But just look at him!!!!

Watch below for pure advertising and production genius.



I WANT OLD SPICE. GET ME SOME.

I'M SOLD.

Because I wanna smell like a man, man.

:D

Those crazy scientists love coming up with experiments, so whilst everyone is enjoying the summer weather Dr Maruice Van Winkleton takes a voyage through the ears...



See how well your ears have developed and take the Tuborg Beat The Intro Challenge, take on Stan for a chance to win some music festival tickets!! I only got a few of those tracks.. see how you do :)

On a side note, there was some great editing in that video. No, really. Awesome stuff.

Diesel - Be Stupid!

Diesel have decided that when someone says 'Don't be stupid', what they really mean is 'Dont have fun!!!'

Get a stupid photo of a friend and be a star of Picadilly Circus :)
