Birds of Paradise. - Neatorama

Male Birds of Paradise in Papua, New Guinea have a bizarre courtship dance you must see to believe. This fellow's "housecleaning" beforehand is pretty impressive, too! Push play or go to YouTube. -via I-Am-Bored

actually, this is an 11 part series and the first 3 episodes aired last sunday. the next two will be aired this sunday at 8 on the discovery channel in the US. I watched the first three episodes, and they were well made and fun to watch.

This is from the 14 hour documentary that is going to air on discovery soon, except with Sigourney Weaver doing the narration. If you get EW, there was a preview dvd in it a couple weeks ago. It looks absolutely fascinating.

The truck doesn't lack brakes. They are probably air operated, and as long as there isn't a significant air leak and the air tank is full, the brakes can be released for quite a long time, and then quickly activated whenever needed. If they run out of air, that truck isn't going anywhere. The brakes will lock down and will not release until the engine is started or an auxiliary air source is found.

it's a diesel so you have to prime the injectors which requires starting fluid. and the tracks would have torn up the road.
