These guys are nuts!

Future YouTube casualties.

I like the 40' section of trail with a handrail at about 4:35. The rest of the trail = if you fall to the right you are seriously injured or die...but this 40'? Absolutely better put a railing right here! (???)

I have been seeing a lot of these FPV 250mm quadcopter videos. This is one of the better ones that I have seen. I have plans for one of these in the next year or so (I'm sure I would never be as good as this guy). Hopefully the price will come down. Right now you would be looking at around $900+ for a decent 250mm with radio and goggles.

CEMENT could change AND FIX FLOODING ~

Absorbs up to 1000 Gallons - IN SIXTY SECONDS ~~!

Click here first, please ......

Enjoy, Mikey Lulejian - Lake Oconee, GA
That's pretty cool. I wonder how well it holds up over time. With less density, It might not stand up to much abuse.

As far as flooding, The only issue I see is the floods from days of rain leave everything at the saturation point. But it could definitely lessen the impact. Cheers to those crazy brits.

Permeable pavement is the latest craze for civil engineering... yep, not as durable as non-permeable. Biggest problem is that the voids fill up with dirt so to maintain it you actually have to vacuum the thing! Also sucks long term in areas where there's snow plowing and, of course, that water has to go somewhere so the soil underneath had better be free-draining (especially if there's frost in the area). Oh, and you'd better get someone who knows what they're doing when they place it...
