If you watch the news from time to time, then you know that an oil drilling platform has just recently exploded 50 miles off the Louisiana coasts.

126 workers were aboard the Deepwater Horizon rig when it blew up. 100 workers made it to the supply boats but 11 are still missing, seventeen were injured, four of them critically.

They still don’t know for sure what is at the source of the incident, the investigation is still going on…

Those pictures are very impressive, look at the size of the flames and how big the smoke cloud is! A lot of work for the fireboats and coast guards and a lot of pain and sadness for the families directly concerned by the accident…
 

This is how modern bomb shelters look like. Of course, their prices are really high. This one, for example, costs $10 million. Do I need one? The answer is… NO :) But it is great!

I love roller coasters that are faster than a car and longer than a mile. Photos of extreme coasters that are both exciting and scary are after the jump.

Height is 229.7 feet, speed is 81 mph

These wonderful human portraits look like photos. They were painted by Simon Hennesy who is a genius in creating meticulously detailed drawings. I love all his works!

After inappropriate and WTF book covers and unconventional books for children, here comes improper comics covers… Improper but hilarious ))

This installation at the Coney Island arcade was created by artist Steve Powers. The purpose of the installation is to get people to think about interrogation techniques. For $1, a visitor can watch an animated robot lean over a man in an orange jumpsuit and pour water into his mouth and nose, which produces convulsions for 15 seconds.

Atlantis shuttle is getting ready for its final mission. It will take off on May 14. Inside the post, you can see some pictures of the preparations.
 

International Wine Challenge is a prestigious wine competition in London. I wouldn’t mind to have such a job: spending the whole day walking and tasting, at your leisure, wines. Easy job, and I will never spit out wine like these judges do :)

This photo is so sad :( It has touched my heart, and I am sure it will touch yours too.

I mean the second photo, of course.

Here comes a new collection of pictures with double sense.
Enjoy and don’t forget the two previous parts:

Double Sense Pictures (56 pics)

Double Sense Pictures. Part 2 (33 pics)

When you see models on catwalks, they are always so gorgeous and sexy. But when I look at all these girls without make-up, I can't stop but thinking that they are too ordinary, sometimes even anorexic.  Judge for yourself after the jump.

Hondabaru is a new type of car. As you might have guessed, Hondabaru has parts from both Honda and Subaru. This car was built by a 27-year-old guy named Yannik who had a Honda Civic, but always dreamt about a Subaru WRX. As he didn’t have money to get his dream car, he bought a battered Subaru for less than $2000 Canadian and laid the Honda Civic body on the WRX frame. He spent on his Hondabaru “mutant” $5300 Canadian in total. The car still needs to be finished, but you can take a look at it now.

When celebrities pose for a portrait, the pictures always look great. Take a look ;)

Do you like handmade things? If yes, you can build a GPS navigation holder yourself. It will be much cheaper than buying the cheapest holder in store.

Maybe it doesn’t look genius, but it’s functional.

A big collection of pictures from the past.

If you look carefully and pay attention to the details, you’ll like it even more.

As I always say, there’s something magical in such photos.

Enjoy!

Kids who are left unattended can be a nuisance and require a lot of attention. I suppose that is why the signs in these photos are so funny, to make light of a bad situation.
 

These great photos were sent to us by Davina Franks. We thank Davina so much! We will quote her message and post pictures of a backpacking kitty after the jump.

The main character from famous American TV show Captain Planet and the Planeteers - superhero Captain Planet - can be very funny and even ridiculous. You can start laughing right after the jump.

American artist Jason Shelowitz known as jayshells has started a “Subway Etiquette” poster campaign in New York. Over 400 posters with rules on how to behave in the subway are put up on lines around the city. What do you think about this?

I have always wondered how two headed animals figure out which head is the boss? These two headed snakes can be rarely met in nature, but they are displayed in zoos and private collections. It doesn’t matter which head eats, because two headed snakes share one body. But it’s funny to see both heads being fed and it’s interesting to watch such a snake moving. Both heads can’t decide which direction is the best for the body :)

Images that you will see inside this post are very unique. This art presented by Istvan Orosz is called Anamorphosis. This renewed Chinese technique shows you the real image only when you have a special device or a specific vantage point to reconstitute it.

This technique was used by Leonardo da Vinci and other Renaissance artists (the art was brought to Italy in the 16th century). And now Istvan Orosz has mastered this 3-D art. He uses mirror Anamorphosis: places a mirror on the drawing transforming a flat image into a three dimensional picture. You can see more after the jump.

Do you know how tall a newly born giraffe is? Inside this post, you can see the first moments of a giraffe’s life and find the answer to this question. Enjoy!
