Not sure if anyone else has checked these out, but I just stumbled across these videos hosted by Discovery. There are only 2 episodes available now, but more to come.
I'm a bit torn as to whether I'd ever show this to my students. I like the ridicule of the people doing things stupidly, but I'm not sure my kids would get the message. I'd consider chopping up the video and using smaller clips (the ferro-liquid is pretty cool!) to show to my kids. Thanks for the tip!

ReplyDeleteI was thinking the same thing. I would be too worried that my kids would go home and try some of these idiotic things.
