Whoever tells the funniest joke gets 10 points?
A couple was golfing one day on a very, very exclusive golf course lined with million-dollar houses. On the third tee, the husband said, "Honey, be very careful when you drive the ball. Don't knock out any windows. It'll cost us a fortune to fix." The wife teed up and shanked it right through the window of the biggest house on the course. The husband cringed and said, "I told you to watch out for the houses. All right, let's go up there, apologize, and see how much this is going to cost." They walked up and knocked on the door. A voice said, "Come on in. They opened the door and saw glass all over the floor and a broken bottle lying on its side in the foyer. A man on the couch said, "Are you the people who broke my window?" "Uh, yeah. Sorry about that," the husband replied. "No, actually, I want to thank you. I'm a genie who was trapped for a thousand years inside that bottle. You've released me. I'm allowed to grant three wishes -- I'll give you each one wish, and I'll keep the last one for myself." "Okay, great!" the husband said. "I want a million dollars a year for the rest of my life." "No problem -- it's the least I could do. And you, what do you want?" the genie said, looking at the wife. "I want a house in every country of the world," she said. "Consider it done," the genie replied. "And what's your wish, genie?", the husband said. "Well, since I've been trapped in that bottle, I haven't had sex with a woman in a thousand years. My wish is to sleep with your wife." The husband looked at the wife and said, "Well, we did get a lot of money and all those houses, honey. I guess I don't care." The genie took the wife upstairs and ravished her for two hours. After it was over, the genie rolled over, looked at the wife, and said, "How old is your husband, anyway?" "Thirty-five," she replied. "And he still believes in genies? ... That's amazing."

I bet they used a combination of effects to achieve this uncut, smooth forward motion.First, you may have heard of SteadiCam. It is a brand encompassing dozens of apparatuses that keep a mounted camera very level and greatly reduce shake even though they are only supported by a person. It is tiring, but possible, for a professional to maintain a run while using one of these rigs. Also, when a camera has a very short focal length (a very wide field of view), moving forward creates a more intense feeling of motion than if it had a narrow field of view. So though you might feel like you're zipping through a crowd or up a set of stairs, you might only be going at a walking speed. This would make stabalizing a camera easier.Additionally, the use of flying cameras rigs, sometimes called quadcopters or drones, have become quite prolific. Assuming there was not an intense amount of wind, it would be possible to coast along on the breeze with almost no opposing forces or friction to jostle the camera around.Another option is that the camera is being held by someone who is running the course that you're watching, and that the raw footage is very shaky. There have been a number of breakthroughs in digitally stabilizing shaky footage in the past several years, that might be complete enough to compensate and produce pristine footage.If you combined some or all of these ideas, I'm sure you could pull of the Virtual Active footage you've come to love. However, as it stands I am impressed by their work!
What motivates me…Well Ive been training jiu jitsu for about 8 years now. At first, I started simply because i wanted to get good at merking people in fights. Not really a admirable reason, but hey, it was my reason. That sole goal is what dragged me out of my house to go to the gym for 2 hours every day.Fast forward 8 years, and ive certainly acheived that goal. So why do i keep going? Habit, and the friends Ive made. Ive gotten to the point where it feels unnatural going to bed WITHOUT being sore from rolling. Its just a part of my daily life now. Just like showering or eating. Also the fact that its a place where i can chill and talk with guys ive known for years.How can a beginner stay on the right path and not stray from training?#1 most important thing-Have a solid, concrete objective in mind. For example-I wanted to be able to merk randos in a fight. I based my training and efforts on that goal. Find a goal for yourself. It could be exercise, making friends, or like me, developing butt kicking skills. As long as you GENUINELY WANT to achieve that goal, you will get there. The moment you dont want that goal, you will quit.#2 train safe. No point in having goals if you get injured into an early retirement.
