Last month Lil’ Wayne protege and rare Canadian cross-over rapper Drake took a pretty serious fall during a concert, sparking a great deal of concern over his physical well-being and his bummed knee. He subsequently canceled all but his hometown (Toronto) appearance on the tour, and is resting up. Complex seized upon the highly-publicized and [...]
Not to brag or anything, but at the end of our first driving test we pretty much had it in the bag, but as we pulled up to the testing center the instructor asked us to back into the only remaining spot in the parking lot, which was impossibly narrow. We totally pulled it off, [...]
That epic get-together of the craziest and most daring athletes/stuntmen/daredevils, the X Games, is currently going down in Los Angeles (or, to be more accurate, is currently flying over LA while doing no-hands 520s). At any rate, if you don’t know what to expect from the event – because, really, isn’t it all about achieving [...]
We’d rather not think about all the stuff other than food that ends up in our ground beef and other various prepared and processed foods, but every so often the foreign contents is just too conspicuous to ignore. That said, when you’re serving like a billion people a year or some such absurd figure, it’s [...]
It’s Sunday, and you should probably be outdoors instead of stuck in front of your computer reading Listicles. That said, if you must be inside you could at least be doing some exercise, like the folks featured in mental_floss’s listicle of 10 Animals on Treadmills. We’re especially fond of the fellow who attempts a handstand [...]
Let’s face it, at some point we all wanted to be ninjas (in some cases ninja turtles, ninja surfers, or even three ninjas). And we’ve probably all had some embarrassing moments of aspiring ninja combat gone horribly wrong. For instance, we remember jumping just a little too high in a room with dangerously low ceiling [...]
Sure, we could have posted this at the beginning of the long weekend as a preventive warning to would-be pyros, but then we would be hurting the chances of future fireworks disaster videos emerging. If you still have enough digits to click a mouse, or enough eyes to watch YouTube videos, we suggest taking a [...]
Given that it’s July 4th (a celebration of all things American, like drinking outdoors and playing sports), we expect the number of emergency room visits by people who’ve been hit in the face by balls (sports balls, you dirty readers!) will spike this weekend. So that you know what to expect when you backyard dodgeball [...]
Watching the videos in Hail Mary Jane’s listicle of 10 Epic Pogo Stick Fails, we’re starting to realize that there’s a kind of fated doom to the pogo stick rider. Like, what did you expect would happen? Watch enough of them and getting on a pogo stick starts to look like a daredevil proposition, accepted [...]
This year’s fairly spectacular NHL Finals are headed down to the wire, with the Detroit Red Wings and Pittsburg Penguins now duking it out in a best-of-three deathmatch (game one of which is tonight!). Pro hockey ain’t always so spectacularly tense, though, as The Angry T’s listicle of 12 Awkward NHL Fights demonstrates. The worst [...]
