MacGyvered Inebriation: Guy Opens Wine Bottle With Shoe


Here is a neat trick in case you are ever stuck without a corkscrew in sight. The person opening the bottle in this video doesn’t need another bottle of wine, but the fact that he has to steady himself to take off his shoe is testament to the ease of the technique which employs the principals of physics and brute force to accomplish the seemingly impossible.

Swinefighter: Swine Flu Game Takes World By Storm

ed9f
Swinefighter, a game which is based on fears of the H1N1 virus, otherwise known as swine flu, has become an instant flash sensation. In the short time since it was released, the game has seen some 9.7 million flying green pigs stuck with a needle full of vaccine (that doesn’t actually exist).

My best score out of five games was 18, but that was using a trackpad. [Swinefighter via Crave]
