Born on this day in 1706, Benjamin Franklin's curiosity and ingenuity shaped science, innovation, and society as we know it today. He believed curiosity was the key to progress… do you feel the same?
Did you know that classic Hollywood snow effects often used shredded paper or foam flakes, blown around with fans to make them move more naturally? 🌨️ It's true! While salt and other materials were sometimes used in the past, modern productions still rely on these same lightweight, safe options to achieve a realistic look on camera. Yes, there have been many advancements in Hollywood production over the years, but some things never change 😉
Happy New Year! As we step into 2026, I just want to take a moment to thank all of you for being part of this amazing community. Over the past year, we’ve explored incredible engineering feats, unraveled fascinating mysteries, and had some fantastic discussions in the comments along the way. It’s been amazing to watch this community grow and see how your enthusiasm and ideas have shaped our content.
As we kick off another exciting year, I’d love to know 👉 what’s the most surprising thing you learned from the channel in 2025? Drop it in the comments and let’s make 2026 our most unforgettable year yet 🎆
In the 1964 film Mary Poppins, Disney achieved some of the cleanest compositing ever seen using the sodium vapor process. What made this technique so effective compared to traditional blue or green screen?
Did you know that on this day in 1980, U.S. Air Force personnel reported strange lights and a physical craft in Rendlesham Forest, England? 🛸 Upon further investigation, there even appeared to be physical evidence (indentations, broken branches and elevated radiation readings) left behind, making it one of the most credible UFO encounters documented to this day. So what are your thoughts? UFO or just a holiday hoax? 🤷🏻
The holidays are officially upon us, and while I’ve heard some chatter about them being overrated, I’d love to know which parts of the holidays you feel are underrated. Drop your thoughts in the comments below 👇
Did you know that on this day in 1913, Henry Ford introduced the first moving assembly line for automobile production? This innovation reduced the time to build a car from over 12 hours to just 93 minutes 🤯🤯
Fun Fact: When the Hagia Sophia was completed in 537 AD, its dome was the largest in the world. To prevent collapse, its builders used lightweight volcanic rock from the Aegean, along with a combination of brick and mortar, creating a structure that was both strong and surprisingly light for its scale.
