Haha, I figured they didn't fake the water effects. Didn't think about that being real but the lightning being fake.
Fake? I'm no expert, but I would expect detcord to flash.

I am not certain that the authors of the detcord article linked above researched the ratio of the foot to the meter rigorously. One to five seems a bit off.It looks to be industry practice.

I just saw a very funny clip with Hugh Jackman. He is not only a good actor, he is very funny too... :smile:
Here he fools around with an interviewer who is a former student of his:

That awkward moment when Hugh Jackman remembers he taught you at school

"I'm not a cat."

According to CBS News this morning, the lawyer was using his secretary's computer. Her daughter had used Zoom on it shortly before, and forgot to turn off the cat filter. They also noted that despite the warning in the upper-left panel, this clip was released by the judge, so it's legal. :cool:

I posted this clip a while ago in the "Our Beautiful Universe" thread in the Astronomy Forum, and I hope I can be forgiven for posting it here too. :smile:

It is not everyday you watch a clip of a craft from Earth landing on another planet, filmed live.
I wanted to post it here too, to give people who are not following the other thread a chance to see this spectacular video.

Wall Street Bets: the Documentary
Speaking of career building...

I saw a couple of "best of" Saturday Night Live skits last weekend. Many of them were great.
Two of my favorite SNL comedians are Bill Hader and Kate McKinnon, but in this skit Adam Driver really shines as an oil baron giving career advice to school kids: :biggrin:

Career Day - SNL
I also saw a hilarious skit where Kate McKinnon plays one of three persons having been abducted by aliens. She is so funny that the others are having a really hard time keeping a straight face :biggrin: :

Close Encounter - SNL
And here's a great one where Bill Hader shines :biggrin::

Puppet Class with Seth MacFarlane - SNL
