Video of the Day: Snow on the beach in Split, Croatia
Extreme cold and snow have gripped parts of Europe in ways that the continent has not experienced in years. The images of people struggling to cope with the elements are chilling (no pun intended). Even in Split, Croatia, a coastal town on the Adriatic Sea, snow has ...
Video of the Day: Flying People in New York City
Imagine if you could fly. Not in an airplane or a helicopter. I mean, you could fly like Superman. How amazing would it be to soar through cities and observe everyone from above. Well, imagine looking up and seeing three people flying around New York City. That's what ...
Video of the Day: Sheer terror on the Slingshot
I hate scary amusement park rides. I understand that some people love roller coasters and loops and sudden plunges into dark caverns, but it's just not for me. You can save your trips to Cedar Point and roller coaster road trips for someone else. Because, quite frankly, ...
Video of the Day: An American explains cricket
If you've traveled to any of the Commonwealth nations, you've likely encountered cricket on television or in the newspapers. You may have even gotten stuck in a conversation about it while having no clue what anyone is saying. Heck, you might have even played ...
Video of the Day: Brussels to Bruges in two minutes
Road trips seem to be a very American activity. Driving cross-country, family vacations to national parks and the like. However, road trips are popular around the world. Caravanning (what we would call RVing) is quite popular in the UK. Also, because European countries ...
Video of the Day: Making tacos in space
Preparing your own meals while on the road can be tough. You don't always have a proper kitchen stocked with all of the tools and appliances that you need. Ingredients can be difficult to find. Still, at least we always have gravity to help us out. Not so for astronauts. ...
Video of the day: Season's Greetings from New York City
We at Gadling love a good time-lapse video. Whether it's at a busy airport in Moldova or the many personalities on the streets of Laos, there's something about seeing life pass by at fast (or slow) speeds that's entrancing. With Christmas a few days away and Hanukkah in ...
Video of the Day: Remote camera captures action on Maine hiking trail
One of the best aspects of hiking is the escape that it provides from your everyday life. Getting lost - even briefly - in nature allows you to forget that the rest of the world exists. But what happens when you leave the trail and return home? Someone up in Maine ...
Video of the Day: Salt boarding
Some people love winter sports so much, they don't give a hang if there's an absence of snow. Check out this epic video, where a group of shredders hit the Utah Salt Flats for kicks at speeds up to 50 mph. The boards were supplied by snowboard company BLANK; no word on who ...
Video of the Day: Dog in Cars
If you have dogs, you know that car rides can be an adventure. Whether you're on a road trip, running errands or just taking your pups to the vet, time in the car with dogs is always interesting. I have two dogs and they couldn't be more different in the car. We take our ...
Video of the Day: Traffic in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietman
Everyone I know who has spent any time in Vietnam has bemoaned how challenging it is to cross the streets there. It's like a game of Frogger, but the stakes are much higher. This time lapse shows just how chaotic and frenetic the streets of Ho Chi Minh City actually are. ...
Video of the Day: Urban skiiing
Despite the oddly warm weather we're experiencing in the Northeast right now, it is technically the start of ski season is many part of the country. However, it can be difficult to get to a proper ski destination whether due to finances, lack of time or friends who flake ...
Video of the Day: Driving a NYC Subway
It's always been a dream of mine to shadow a NYC subway conductor for a day. Sure, you could ride the subway all day, but imagine spending a shift with a subway conductor train operator and seeing the tunnels from that perspective. Well, this video might just be the ...
Video of the Day: From Nordhordland with Love
Quick, tell us everything that you know about Nordhordland. Of course, you know it's a region of western Norway. Don't know much else? Well, apparently it's the perfect place for a super villian to establish is base of operations. Why? Well, proximity to the sea, ample ...
Video of the Day: Bus stops, passengers tumble
Whether part of your commute or part of your travels, buses are often a convenient (and affordable) way to get from Point A to Point B. The downside of buses (other than frequent stops) is the lack of space. The seats are cramped, there's little room for your belongings ...
Video of the Day: My Jet Pack
We've covered jet packs before here at Gadling. We've looked at water-powered versions, jet packs used for stunts and attempts to bring jet packs to the masses. However, as a viable means of transportation, jet packs still seem to fall a bit short. That said, they are ...
Video of the Day: Zipline Fail
When did ziplines become so prevalent? Somewhere along the way, we went from traveling to places to either relax or explore local cultures to careening through trees on a series of cables. When did this happen? Why are they so popular? Beyond that, I have a hard time ...
Video of the Day: Crowded Tokyo subway
It's Monday, which, for most people, means back to work. After two glorious days with your friends, families and your the comforts of home, it's back to the office. But, before you can get to your place of business, you first need to commute. Many of you spend hours ...
Video of the Day: Baby eats wasabi
We've obviously been talking about food a lot this week. Food and travel are always linked, as we remember places as much for their tastes and smells as we do for their sights and sounds. While I'm now an avid traveler, I grew up taking pretty standard vacations to ...
Video of the Day: Eating live octopus
We've already discussed how much some people enjoy photographing their food. What happens, however, when your food is moving? Still images can't capture the action of live animals squirming on your plate. Sound strange? Well, it happens. In Korean restaurants around the ...
