Guy breaks world speed record on Elliptical machine Gerryrulz 2012-04-27 | The other day I set out to beat the speed record on the Elliptical machine. I managed to break the record, and I also got it on camera. It was a pretty good workout too. In only a few seconds I managed to burn 15 or so calories. If we multiply that to make it an hour, I could burn nearly 2000 calories per hour.

Home-made foam RC Plane First Flight - Crash Gerryrulz 2013-01-02 | After spending hours building a home-made foam airplane, we took it outside to take it for it's first flight. Luckily it flew, however it didn't fly quite as well as we wanted. It ended up crashing after being in the air for about 5 seconds. The crash wasn't that bad. The only part that broke was the landing gear ski (which was flimsy to start with) and the propeller blades. I hooked up some new propeller blades and was back ready to fly it within 10 minutes.

$20 Bill Melting in Microwave - Canadas New Plastic Money Gerryrulz 2012-11-16 | The Bank of Canada says that their new polymer money is virtually indestructible, but it seems that they never thought someone would put the bank notes into a microwave. I decided to give it a try and in less than 15 seconds, the hologram portion of the bill had melted. I decided to take it out, rather than let it continue, knowing that if I wanted to cash it in at the bank it would probably best if it was still somewhat intact.
Water Balloon Fire Extinguisher Gerryrulz 2012-11-15 | Why use a regular fire extinguisher when you can use a water balloon instead.

Double Horse 9104 RC Helicopter Crash - First Person View Gerryrulz 2012-10-18 | I'm not sure what's wrong with my Double Horse 9104 RC helicopter. For some reason it can't seem to stay in the air for more than about 30 seconds. Once it gets flying, something always goes wrong, it loses power and crashes.In this video, it almost crashes about half way through, though the motor restarts and it has a rough bounce on the pavement. It gets flying up about 15 ft and then all of a sudden it spins around and crashes into the ditch.
FPV RC Helicopter Crash - Engine Failure onto Pavement Gerryrulz 2012-10-18 | First Person View (FPV) video from my Double Horse 9104 RC Helicopter. I took off on the street, got up to about 12 feet, and then shortly thereafter the engine died and the helicopter came crashing down onto the road.The tiny camera flew off, but right at the end of the video you can see the helicopter somehow landed perfectly upright and didn't suffer any damage despite falling at least 12 to 15 ft onto the pavement. The helicopter still works and flew again a couple minutes later. I'm not sure why, but for some reason this helicopter in particular loses power at random times and comes crashing towards the ground.

Testing Homemade RC Plane Gerryrulz 2012-09-03 | I built this home-made RC airplane out of foam board and the parts from a broken RC Helicopter. Unlike a regular plane that uses servos to control ailerons and an elevator, this plane uses the tail section from the helicopter to control pitch, and the varying speeds of the two helicopter motors, placed on the front of the plane to turn. When the speed increases in on motor, it increases the lift on that side of the plane, causing it to turn. In my other video you can see the plane crash, due to a lack of lift. To improve the plane in the future, I will be adding 4 propeller blades to each motor instead of 2.
Homemade RC Plane Crash - Nearly Hits Me Gerryrulz 2012-08-30 | After finishing work on my home-made RC plane, we decided to test it out.
