In case you were wondering, this is not an extravagant belt, this is the Hitch, a new way of transportation for adrenaline addicts or complete wackos.

This toothbrush is supposed to be the Superman of toothbrushes, being able to clean teeth 66 percent faster than regular toothbrushes.

The Brush executes  810 movements per minute, so the teeth can benefit from a thorough cleaning in just 40 seconds. The bristles are Read the rest of this entry…

Leaving aside the balls and nuts jokes this Heavy Metal Nutcracker alludes to, this simple contraption works and you don’t even need to use any amount of force.

Just place the nut on the wood support, rise the ball and drop it on the top of the nut (it cannot go elsewhere as it’s guided by metal rods). It will crack any nut open, but be sure to remove your fingers before you drop the metal ball, as it can do serious damage to your fingers. And also not a very good idea to let your kids play Read the rest of this entry…

The last time you asked for a drink “on rocks”, did you think that it could be literally on rocks?
