An amazing stunt performed for Discovery Channel's popular TV show Stunt Junkies. The skydiver manages to sky-dive from one plane to another. It's a pretty impressive stunt, and so far unique to my knowledge. Enjoy!
This cool video is from Discovery Channel's Future Weapons show, which is one of my favorite TV shows. In this 8 minute video you'll see one of the latest recoilless shotguns which is able to fire up to 300 rounds per minute, obliterating everything in its path! Pretty useful, huh?
Here's a video from the Discovery Channel, and its famous 'How its made' show. This show in 4 minutes and a half how video games are created. From the concept, to the finished product! Cool!
Amazing
It's simply amazing to see how fast a peaceful creek can turn into a roaring inferno river. About 20 seconds, that's how fast! This guy in Costa Rica was there to film it! Discovery Channel material. Enjoy!
Technology and Health News
Cancer threatens the conservation of some wild species because it represents one of the top causes of death. This was also recently featured on the Discovery Channel.
Cancer affects some animals with the same effect as in human beings, and could be the cause of extinction of some wild species. The researchers say the Society of Preservation of Fauna and Flora of New York have found an increase in cancer cases in wild animals in recent years.
According to their findings, published in Nature Reviews Cancer, the species most affected are those at risk of extinction, like the Tasmanian devil, a small marsupial carnivore, already decimated in the late nineties by a rare form of transmissible cancer (the devil facial tumor).
The cause is unknown, but it has been shown that malignant cells are able to spread among the samples and through bites during fights. To save the species, biologists are now isolating infected animals in zoos or reserves.
Denise McAloose and Alisa Newton, authors of the study, have investigated the possible causes of cancer in different species, and have found a correlation between cancer and pollution. For example, for the living beluga in the estuary of the St. Lawrence River (Canada), a form of bowel cancer is the second leading cause of death. The culprit could be an organic compound (a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon that is found in oil, but also in municipal waste), already known to be carcinogenic for our species.
