The video discusses a variety of interesting facts and innovations. It begins with English freestyle soccer players Keyvan Brown and John Fun Work who perform tricks while suspended 200 meters high in a hot air balloon. The video also explains that woodlice, contrary to what it seems, are not insects but crustaceans.
The video then mentions the Italian municipality of Riomaggiore, which served as inspiration for the Disney movie Luca. It also highlights the Chinese basketball player Zhang Ziyi, who is 2.26 meters tall at just 14 years old and is emerging as the next Chinese basketball star.
The video introduces an Australian company, Surf Lay, which has created a lake with waves using a giant piston in the middle. This forms spectacular waves perfect for surfing. The video also explains the technique of crosswind landing, which keeps the wings level and the plane positioned near the center line of the runway.
The video then talks about an Indian man named Niland Kumar who broke the record of spending 72 hours locked up with 72 poisonous snakes in 1980 to prove that snakes do not attack if they are not disturbed.
The video also features a watch made of ferrofluid, a liquid easily malleable through a magnetic field, created by the Dutch designer Self Command. It also tells the story of Ann Davis, an engineer from Oregon who lost four fingers on his left hand due to a work accident. After his insurance did not cover his prosthesis, he decided to create one on his own.
The video also discusses the ability of some species of crabs to swim, the light effect in frost, and a fabric that self-repairs holes or small tears when a sharp object is introduced into it.
The video also mentions a Belgian company called Galo that sells blocks to build a house in just six days, made of wood and graphite and weighing less than 10 kilos. The French pilot Christian Model has adapted an ultralight plane to guide vulnerable bird species through safer migratory routes.
The video talks about the cause of lightning rays, which are the rocks expelled by a volcano at high speed. The friction between them causes negative and positive energy charges to be produced.
The video also discusses how sunflower seeds are harvested to know when to harvest the head. The Tokyo police use drones equipped with nets to catch other drones that fly illegally over important buildings.
The video also features James Cook, a young British man who uses a typewriter to make incredible illustrations, inspired by the deceased artist Paul Smith. The video also introduces an interactive pong table created by German designer Thomas Mayer.
A food technology company called New Mid has created a 3-D printed meat made from rice peas and extract of algae. The founder of the company assures that the meat has the same appearance, texture, and flavor of a traditional cut.
The video ends with a look at a war tank when seen in half.
