Awesome Blist 9/7/2014

Here is a review of the most awesome or interesting items posted on the Everything is
Awesome Facebook Group during the past week.
#1 Intellivator
In this video, passengers were introduced to the first elevator with artificial intelligence. The
catch? The entire thing was an elaborate hoax, and they were really talking to two guys with a
microphone and a keyboard who were screwing with them.
#2 Compact Boats Only
With no set up, it is difficult to understand what would compel a ships captain to drive their boat
directly into a beach. But, thats exactly what happens. Its like watching someone trying to fit
their SUV into a space designed for a compact car at Walmart.
#3 Pooch with a GoPro
No set up was needed for this video. The owner strapped a GoPro camera to the back of their
dog, and then let him run free. It didnt take long for the dog to make his way to the nearby
beach and into the water.
#4 Mutant Spider-Dog-Thing
A dog is dressed up in a spider costume and then unleashed onto the unsuspecting public. Most
of the laughs come from bystanders reactions when the dog appears from around dimly lit
doorways or corners. The highlight is when the dog is positioned in an elevator with a victim
lying on the floor. The doors open, and the two ladies who were waiting let out screams.
#5 100 Most Iconic Shots In Movie History
This video is a montage of all of the greatest shots in cinematic history. If you watch real
carefully, you will see a diverse mix of classic and modern films ranging from the Wizard of Oz
to E.T. and Titanic.
#6 Some Day my Prints will Come
Somebody must have really gotten a chuckle when they posted this quote and a picture of
Snow White above the copier machine in their office. The comments are just as funny.
#7 UFO
This is another pun via picture. The quote is UFO caught on tape, and the picture is of a
drawing of a flying saucer stuck to a roll of transparent tape.

#8 Extra Mess Ups
So, it is common knowledge that movies often use extras for crowd scenes, or no-name
characters. This article highlights some of the funnier examples of extras who did something to
ruin the scene, but it wasnt caught by the editor. The most famous example is the stormtrooper
in Star Wars who bumped their head on a sliding door. This stayed in the theatrical release,
and was later incorporated into the storyline (sound effect added). In the prequels, Jango Fett
was shown bumping his head as he was climbing into the Slave I, perhaps a way of explaining
why the stormtroopers were so accident prone (but still no explanation why they have such a
lousy aim).
#9 Crumbling Crane
Watched back-to-back, you might wonder if the boat captain from the earlier video had first tried
his luck at being a crane operator, or maybe the other way around. In this video, a crane lifts a
swimming pool from the street, over the house, but the pool never actually makes it into the
backyard. Instead, the crane tips over and crashes straight through the houses roof. Ouch!
#10 Things you dont tell your wife
Im not saying that I would have said any of these things to my wife, but here is a song which
might strike a chord with most husbands.
