How the Hell Did This Helicopter Land on a Rail?
May 02, 5:19AM
Helicopters aren't supposed to do this. I know this because I've seen too many military movies (Black Hawk Down, Zero Dark Thirty) where the chopper nosedives into destruction. They're sensitive machines. You need a clear landing pad! You need an open target! You don't land a freaking helicopter on a freeway guard rail. Or do you?

Why do you kiss? Because it makes you feel good down there? Because it'll hopefully lead to something that'll make you feel great down there? Probably. But what about the science behind why we kiss?

A Soldier Launching a Stinger Missile That Looks Like Lasers
May 01, 11:00PM
Is this a picture of a soldier shooting lasers against the night sky? How did they make the beams bend? They twist and turn like bolts from a Tesla coil! Sadly, no. It's just a fantastic picture of a Marine launching a PL-87 Stinger Missile at a flying drone in a training exercise. It's so gorgeous.

The California-Made Earthquake Alarm That Works But California Won't Build
May 01, 8:30PM
For all of the devastation caused by the 2011 earthquake/tsunami in Japan, the former, a 9.0 magnitude beast called "Tohoku," could have claimed far more lives. The reason it didn't? Since 2007, Japan has had an early warning system—conceived ten years ago at Caltech—which California still hasn't managed to set up. And while it only gives about a minute notice, it's a minute Californians currently don't have.

A Promo Code For Audiophiles Is Your Dealzmodo-Exclusive Deal of the Day
May 01, 7:00PM
Back in September, we ran this same deal of the day and folks really liked it. Basically, Sound Earphones is a pretty cool audio retailer based in Cincinnati, and they carry a lot of high end stuff—Grados, Westone in-ear monitors, amplifiers—that never goes on sale. Sometimes it's because of contractual restrictions, other times it's simply because Grado doesn't need sales to move headphones. Still—full price sucks. So we got together with the homies at Sound Earphones and came up with this deal: the code Dealzmodo takes 20% off Sound Earphones gift cards, which they'll email to you, and then you can use on whatever piece of audio equipment you've been eyeing forever—yes, even Beats.

These Headlamps See Past Storms by Shining Light Where the Rain Isn't
May 01, 5:40PM
When you're driving through a rain or snow storm and you try using your regular headlights or high beams, the light immediately reflects off the falling precipitation back into your face and drastically reduces visibility—hence the advent of low-hanging fog lights. But with these new headlights from Intel and Carnegie Mellon University, both fog lights and rain glare will soon be a thing of the past.
