THE SKY — It's pretty amazing that planes can fly.
When you see a cargo jet or a passenger plane flying through the sky, you might stop to think about how it's a marvel that human ingenuity has figured out how to keep these mechanical birds in flight.
And while watching a plane fly is impressive, get ready to have your brain turned into putty. Because this plane can stop in midair.
Don't believe me? Check out this video.
This short video proves the Russians have become the world leaders in science because they have figured out how to make a passenger jet pause in midair and just hang out. Honestly, what kind of sorcery is this? Darn you, science, you have broken my brain and my current intelligence level can't afford that.
Yesterday's Have You Seen This?
According to some comments, this is just an optical illusion caused by the trees. If you cover the trees with your hand you'll actually see the plane move like it's supposed to, but I'm still not sure I trust it. I think there is some kind of black magic afoot here and I will avoid flying in Russia because I want nothing to do with this witchcraft.
