Diving for Meat
Someone should tell the aquarium that tigers don't like water.
He looks kind of pissed off.

Garden of Light Sabres
Put a bunch of flourescent blubs underneath powerlines and they light up from the excess power leakage. Makes you glad you don't live underneath.

Floaty Bed
This thing is insane. Some looney designer from Holland built a levitating bed. It's got powerful magnets keeping it afloat, and little wires at the corners so you can't roll it.
Trippy.
They say the magnetic field is safe, but I'm pretty sure you're going to get brain damage sleeping on that thing.
Oh yeah, and apparently you can have sex on it, but if you're sporting any piercings, I'd lose the hardware beforehand.

You Laugh, I Beat You!
This appears to be a Japanese game show. If you laugh, then you go bend over and a guy wails on your ass with a great big stick.
Bend over and give me 10-10-10

Catch Me If You Can
Hipoqih have a GPS / Google Maps mashup for tracking your movements. Actually, it's not fully automatic - you need to send alerts to the system with your position.
Find your friends.
Or cultivate your own stalker... It's up to you!

Exhibitionism for Beginners
A public bathroom in Houston...
Or a safe place for kinky semi-public encounters?
You can get naked in there, or bring a friend and conceive an heir!
No one can see you - but you can see out. You're boinking in public. It's genius!
