Check out this awesome news coverage by Studio 5 in Salt Lake City. We definitely enjoyed seeing all the helmets that have hit the market, but couldn’t be more thrilled to see the news anchor pull off the swashbucklin’ style of our Pirate Mohawk.
Nature often devises surprising solutions for hunting food, warning predators away, and attracting mates, but one of the most magical-looking of these solutions might be bioluminescence, or biochemical light created by a living creature.
In this TED Ed video by Leslie Kenna, watch how creatures like angler fish, deep sea shrimp, railroad worms, and fireflies make and use this glow. And then learn more about how humans might put this biochemical solution to good use in innovative new ways.
How would you use bioluminescence?
Did you know you should always wear a helmet when buying a musical instrument? If you follow Ray Charles’ step by step plan, you sure are going to need one for all the shaking you’ll be doing.
We have a new video in store for you, starring two adorable little brothers and a T-Chopz helmet. If you want to find out more about our big, bad, rad T-Chopz karate master, check out his character page here.
Meet Jarad Dawkins and Malcom Brickhouse. After meeting at a birthday party when they were four, the twosome started jamming out in their parents basements. But don’t call them a kid band. These Brooklyn metalheads are singing about anything but Fridays and daydreaming about the girl who sits in front of you in algebra.
For the last month, the kids have been super into Florentijn Hofman’s Rubber Duck in Hong Kong’s Victoria Harbour. On display until June 9, the Dutch artist’s six-story tall duck has previously floated around waters in Osaka, Sydney, Sao Paolo, and Amsterdam, and will soon be coming to a (currently secret) destination in the United States.
Check out more videos of this awesomeness right here.
If you haven’t yet checked out this series by Matthew Clark, it’s a must watch. The father and film maker takes conversations with his 2 year old daughter and replaces her with a grown man. An absolutely hilarious concept, we hope he keeps going with this.
Made by Hand’s fifth film turns to bike maker Ezra Caldwell (Fast Boy Cycles), who was diagnosed with cancer in 2008. When the cancer threatens to shatter his love of bikes, Ezra survives by documenting his illness as thoroughly as his craft.
Hey Gang! Check out this awesome DIY project about how to make your very own Glowing Chuck’s. Innovating wearable technology is right up our alley, so of course we love every bit of this radical make-it-yourself blog:

This hidden camera adventure through the postal system, From A to B, began when Ruben van der Vleuten wanted to know, ”What happens when you send something by mail?”
So instead of sitting back I started a simple project to actually see it myself. I put a small camera in a box, build a timer circuit using Arduino and shipped it.
That’s as simple as it is. The timer circuit was set to make a 3 sec video every minute and make longer videos while the box was movin: to not miss on the ‘interesting’ parts.
…like conveyor belts! We love videos like this, not only because we get to see from a perspective that we’ve never seen before, but because it would make a great DIY project.
