These are numerous pieces of very interesting designer furniture by many Belgian designer Kaspar Hamacher. They are stools that are made from logs that are burnt with the bark stripped and the logs refinished. The project is called Ausgebrannt, which in German stands for ‘burnt out'.
Quite an interesting idea and execution.
Everywhere we look we see cities and countries on fire, under water, and all shook up from earthquakes. Here are just a few shots of the earth moving experiences.
Energy Factories
We have been on fire since January 1st, and continue to blaze into the new year with a fantastic array of photos that will make you think, smile, and wonder about the world that surrounds us.
Burn it Up
It was a famous photo from photographer Dave Roth who photoshopped the head of his own daughter on a picture with a house on fire.
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…
In January, the Day of St. Anthony is traditionally celebrated in Italy. A spectacular show - jumping over the fire on a horse - is arranged in honor of this holiday.
It's really very beautiful, take a look.
Nice work. Its creator used only Lego bricks and lights to make this realistic fire.
Just look..
Two opposite and powerful elements that are dangerous and helpful at the same time.
Let’s see the pictures.
A small but excellent selection of exciting photos in the style of "stop a moment."
It is breathtakingly beautiful; fire and smoke are just fascinating! A must see post.
Here’s how a burning house looks like when the fire is put out at -4,00°F.
Before you go inside the post, make sure that there are no children under age of 5 in front of your computer, because these images are graphic and may cause a trauma for the little ones…
Here is another selection of photomontages but this time, the theme is Fire!!
Fire is dangerous and violent, but fire is beautiful, so, combined with other living elements or not, I find it magical.
Take a look on the excellent works of Photoshop (or other softs) artists.
Firefighters arrived on the scene after the five luxury boats were covered with fire.
Fortunately, the flames did not spread on other boats (there were a lot of them). Unfortunately, the boats that caught fire can’t be repaired.
At present, the cause of fire isn’t determined.
It happened in 1984 when Michael Jackson was filming a Pepsi commercial. His hair caught fire due to a spark caused by pyrotechnics while he was dancing and the worst is that he did not realize it until a little while.
The accident caused second and third-degree burns on his scalp and body, and he had to make several surgeries.
And the last important point in this story is that he started to take medicines after this accident, became addicted and never stopped taking them until his death.
The difference between the first and the last photo - 5 minutes.
I can say that it is quite a great speed of burning of this Chinese mall.
Recently, the Internet was full of news of supercars that burnt.
People pay big money for these fantastic expensive cars and they burn.
I propose you to look at a Lamborghini Gallardo burned in Greece.
Excellent series of photos that illustrate the danger of fire.
The first photo was taken when the house started to burn, and the last one shows when there’s almost nothing left.
The building was burning for around 40 minutes.
Many manufacturers say their products are safe and sure, but sometimes they explode and catch fire, it concerns especially notebooks because of battery overheating.
If you haven’t seen cases like that before, here are some vivid examples. Be careful!
The day before yesterday, near the downtown in Moscow, a Ferrari that had just been purchased ignited. Its new owner had time to get out of the car and call firefighters. She said she bought the car in a car shop and could only run for 5 km before the fire started. It is in the engine section that the fire started. For now, the reasons are not clear.
The car cost 650 000 euros.
The Cliff House is a restaurant perched on the headlands on the cliffs just north of Ocean Beach, on the western side of San Francisco, California. It has great history and a sad story.
The first Cliff House was a modest structure built in 1863; the building survived the explosion of the schooner Parallel, abandoned and loaded with dynamite, ran aground on the rocks below but was later completely destroyed on Christmas night 1894 due to a defective flue.
The Cliff House had also survived the 1906 earthquake with little damage but burned to the ground on the evening of September 7, 1907.
Dramatic story in pictures.
A car can completely burn out in a couple of minutes in a car accident, because of a technical malfunction or in the case of arson.
A burning car is a beautiful and a sad view and at the same time.
After the jump, you will see a selection of cars captured in flames.
A luxury hotel in Beijing, the Mandarin Oriental Hotel took fire during the last day of the Chinese New Year celebration. It seems that the reason for fire was the unauthorized fireworks used by a Chinese television station.
A funny instruction ))
