Last week I was up at the Great Barrier Reef. I think that GBR and I are very similar. We’re both unique beauties, it’s impossible to confirm our exact ages and rich old men just keep trying to drill us.

Always loved the challenge of competing for high balls. Please don’t keep punishing the commitment and bravery it takes to do it! When you are locked onto a ball and running at speed, sometimes you end up off balance in the air and it’s not a deliberate foul by the opposition.

This robot can do 11 minutes of push ups but it breaks a sweat doing it

Sweaty robot

Kengoro is a humanoid robot from the University of Tokyo. It releases water through its frame and around its motors to avoid overheating, and can do push-ups for 11 minutes straight.

This guy proposed in VR and it was actually really romantic

Here's one way to propose to the love of your life—in VR

Alex wanted to pop the question to his girlfriend Kelly at her favorite place in the world - the tree outside her grandma's house from when she was a kid. He decided to do it with VR.
