All those optical illusions that make a 2D picture look like a cool intelligent video....
I believe no picture is a picture, our
mind creates a small video of length (+/-) 'dt' amount of time. This is why a picture of a smile or a cry means a lot to us. But just for once, try to think that the person posing in that picture has deformed his face into a certain fashion. [laugh/cry] ignore the fact that you know what those emotions are. It starts to feel so stupid about the charming model. In
these kind of pictures, the movement in eyeball is the key. one may observe that the spooky action increases when we hover our eyes over the picture. We will be tricked to think
that the movie has moved somemore frames. With my little practice of
meditation, given some time I am able stop this thing. try raising your face towards ceiling
and see the picture through your barely open eyes the motion appears to
come rest. this is simply because that the eye movement will be very
minimum there.
This is so awesome.. !! Stan Lee's Superhumans Originally aired on The History Channel comes up with the real-life Samurai from Osaka, Japan. ISAO MACHII. This master of martial arts, chops a pellet from a BB Gun, that flies to him. A BB Gun has an average speed of 457.2 kmph of speed. The size of the pellet used here is 4.5 mm in diameter. The shooter stands at 100m far from The Samurai, this virtually gives the master 0.78 second for the reaction. It should be noted that a normal human rection time is 0.3 second.
Now, lets do the math !!
In the hand of an expert shooter and trivial recoil like that of a simple BB Gun, we can easily expect an inch at 100m length [this is an angular measure]. Here, in the first case.. there is no specific target that is placed and agreed to aim at. So, with all this data i will assume that the area where the bullet could be expected is inside an area of the circle of diameter 3 ft. [ = 0.6567 square meter ]. diameter of a BB Gun pellet is 4.5 mm. This makes the placement of the bullet in its real place a one in 41301.8868 shot [simply calculated the probalility, just kept it simple for many conditions] at the least !
Average width of a traditonal soul-ful katana is 0.7112 cm. The way the ISAO MACHII draws from the sword cover everytime makes is ever harder to accurately draw it to a particular point in space. OK, i don wanna pose more. I don even know what is the probability of getting this right ! It could be one in say 10s.
This multiplied with the above 41 thousand number will make it a ONE IN A MILLION SHOT. Now enjoy the video.
Stan Lee's [who needs no much introduction] SuperHumans is a very interesting programme there are a lot of videos that are gonna shortly make it to my collection. keep watching.
Thanks to Daniel Browning Smith who himself is pretty awesome :)
I just wonder, how many more such giant talents yet stay hidden considering most martial knowledge is kept and practiced in secret. Hats off to those who have pushed the human limits and been a source of inspiration to millions like me.
Here, i found a very nice simulated universe correct to scales.. and the team has taken care to correctly put the orbits of the artificial sattelites.
Another interesting point is, we must note how far in scale is our farthest sent radio signals, one more point against all those extra terrestrial enthusiasts. Its a wonder how less we know in the vast stretch of [ c*13.6 billion years ].
One of my long term partner in crime is Calibre - Ebook management system. it was the time i was looking for a search tool to find a single book from the thousands of books i have in my computer. i am comfortable with e-books unlike few of my friends and a software like calibre was just what i wanned. it was and always has been great fun with calibre untill now !
hear it from the creator KOVID GOYAL !! have fun...
