Duke Cannon Big Ass Brick of Soap
Duke Cannon's Big Ass Brick of Soap is exactly what the name promises: an oversized bar built for long-lasting performance rather than quick replacements. This Costco-exclusive four-pack bundles four hefty 10-ounce bars, each crafted to deliver a rich lather and substantial feel that easily outlasts ordinary soap. With bold signature scents and the brand's unmistakably no-nonsense approach to grooming, it's a practical upgrade that keeps the shower stocked for months while offering exceptional value in a warehouse-sized package.

MetMo Eddy
In 1855, French physicist Léon Foucault discovered that moving a conductor through a magnetic field could generate circulating electrical currents within the metal, creating a force that resists its motion. Nearly two centuries later, MetMo harnesses that electromagnetic force into a palm sized gadget, the Eddy. Built around pure copper and a powerful magnet, the precision-engineered object turns electromagnetic induction into something you can see, feel, and repeat. Send the magnet into motion and invisible eddy currents fight back, slowing its movement in a strangely mesmerizing demonstration of physics at work. Equal parts scientific experiment, kinetic sculpture, and desktop distraction, the Eddy re-engineers a discovery from 1855 for anyone who finds magic in understanding how things work.

Musicless Musicvideo: Firestarter
The Prodigy's videos were already mildly creepy. But this things to a whole new level. Mario Wienerroither has gone and stripped the audio from the British band's video for "Firestarter", replacing it with haunting noises and snippets of frontman Keith Flint's vocals. Shudder.
Electric Donuts
What is the first thing you'd want to do in an electric racecar? Donuts, of course. This is the CES 2014 debut of the Spark-Renault SRT-01E, an all-electric racecar. With a top speed of 140 mph and a 0-62 time of three seconds, it's pushes the boundries of high-performance electric vehicles.

Stephen Kenn: Encounter Collection
Normally promo videos for bags and small accessories focus on what goes in them. This video for Stephen Kenn's Encounter Collection instead focuses on both the sadness and joy that comes from passing an object along to younger generations. Kleenex optional.

Goalies Gone Wild
If you thought hockey goalies were tough before, wait until you watch over 14 minutes of them coming completely unhinged. Jason Voorhees has nothing on these guys.
V Formation
You've seen the flocks flying above you in a tight V formation and wondered about the how and why. Researchers at the UK's Royal Veterinary College have found that there are aerodynamic benefits to flying this way, beyond the oft-proposed protection from predators.
