Yea, this was done on purpose. Not by being filled with hole by bullets, but piercings.

This is so disgusting...

Denny's - $300 Grand Slam

Denny's aimed at 1% opens in New York with $300 Grand Slam



Quote
Denny's swung open its doors in a luxury apartment building in New York's City's financial district Friday morning.

And it had every marking of trying to attract Masters of the Universes and ladies who lunch -- what was made to look like copper-stamped ceilings, exposed brick walls, faux Tolix chairs, and a full bar with artisanal bloody marys and prosecco on tap.

Owner Rahul Marwah said he envisions the restaurant filled with a Wall Street crowd, given that it's situated at the gateway to the financial district. That's why he modeled the interior after local dining institutions like Delmonico's and Locande Verde -- both of which charge upwards of $30 for dinner entrees.

The real proof that this Denny's is trying to be the highest brow of all the 1,700 Denny's is the $300 take on the traditional Grand Slam breakfast. The Grand Cru Slam takes the storied combination of bacon, pancakes and eggs and adds a bottle of 2003 vintage Dom Perignon champagne. The meal also comes with a high five from the bartender.

Only the 1% didn't seem to be flocking there. In fact, residents from the ritzy condo building in which the restaurant is located filed suit last year to try and stop it from opening.

At 8:30 a.m. on Friday, there was not a single suit in the restaurant -- business, Chanel, or otherwise -- apart from the one Marwah was wearing.

The crowd mostly consisted of people in jeans or workout gear and members of the media.

"It's a very New York-style Denny's, but it's still a Denny's,"
said Joshua Ness, a Texas native living in Brooklyn who grew up frequenting a Denny's that had floral wall paper and a glass case filled with cakes spinning on trays. The food, he said, was not much different.

Ness and his friend Kelli Mears didn't order the Grand Cru Slam. Mears had chicken fried steak and Ness had some eggs. The $300 meal option is not something they'd order on a random Friday, he said.

Their check came to about $30, and they were headed out the door to work, him at a start-up and her as an executive assistant.

"It was a good breakfast, but I'm really sleepy now," she said. "Maybe chicken fried steak was a bad idea."

Extreme Truck vs. Jet

Watch This 36,000 Horsepower Truck Blow The Doors Off A Flying Jet

Quote
The Shockwave Jet Truck is a delightfully ridiculous contraption with six wheels, three jet engines, and a strong resemblance to a semi-truck cab. Those three engines generate an equivalent of 36,000 horsepower; enough to catch up to and pass a speeding jet flying overhead.



Quote
Start from the beginning to watch the airborne plane do its thing. The truck rolls up and does s little fire-spitting show around 07:00. Or, just skip straight to 10:30 for the "race," though of course it's more of a "spectacle." A spectacle of awesomeness. You're welcome.

That adorable airplane is called an FLS Microjet. They've been around since the 70's and you might recognize it from an appearance in Octopussy. Believe it or not, they're actually meant to be "home-built." I mean, if your home has an incredible tool collection and a person competent enough to build a jet plane in it.

A Quantum Turbine System jet engine makes 265 pounds of thrust; enough to push the 416 pound plane to 320 MPH. It looks like it slows a bit for the exhibition in the video, but the Shockwave truck actually is a bit faster with a top speed of 365 MPH.

Extreme Roller Coaster Skyscraper



Quote
ORLANDO, Fla. (WAAY) - Even the simulated video of the ride will leave you breathless.

New video of what is promised will be the world's tallest roller coaster shows a first-person view of the 535-foot ride that will be built in Orlando.

The Skyscraper roller coaster will take riders on a series of twists, turns and loops down a 55-story tower when it opens in 2017.

Skyscraper is part of the Skyplex development in Orlando. Developers released video of a 3-D simulation Monday that shows the path riders will take from top to bottom.

Extreme Bicycle

A guy in France broke a world record by riding a rocket-powered bicycle 207 MILES AN HOUR.  Which looks about as terrifying as it sounds.  There's a video of him drag racing against a Lamborghini, and it's not even CLOSE.

Extreme Light Bulb Replacement

Quote

    Somebody has to change out that lightbulb at the top of those tall TV towers!

    This is tower climber Kevin Schmidt making the climb to the very top of the now inactive KDLT TV analog broadcast antenna near Salem, SD.

    It was a beautiful fall day for a climb and the views are stunning! I would suggest watching at 1080 HD in full screen to get a small taste of the experience.
