1.

New flying tanks will help defend our skies. Takes a bit of training to land safely, but that's true of all aircraft.

3.

Some fairly big sharks can bring down helicopters. I know some of you are thinking "Wha? That's bullshit! That only happens in the movies.". Well, it may very well be in the movies, but here is a clip showing it. Facts, bitches. Deal with them.

4.

Someone took the last parachute? No problem, jump out after them, catch them in midair and ride down with them. Or is it ride on them?

5.

It is proven fact that Martians can not withstand the awesome power that is Slim Whitman. I'm not spiciest or anything, I have alien friends, but take that you green bastards. ( I couldn't embed the Indian Love Call version)

Well, okay, water kills some aliens too. I know, I know, crazy, but it shows it right here. It's fact, folks, I'm not making this stuff up.

7.

Tyrannosaurus ; meaning "tyrant lizard", from Greek tyrannos (τυράννος) meaning "tyrant," and sauros (σαύρος) meaning "lizard") is a genus of coelurosaurian theropod dinosaur. Well guess what? They eat lawyers. Pretty damn amazing. I would have been sad if this was Ted the lawyer from Scrubs :(

8.

No matter what the number, no matter what the odds, someone with a heart set for revenge can accomplish anything. It's heart that matters, it's determination that wins. Because failure means you should never have tried in the first place.
