It Seems Like A Normal Camper But It’s Hiding An Incredible Secret. I’m Speechless!

At first glance, this camper appears to be normal, albeit a little quirky for some people’s tastes. It’s life-sized and fully functioning with a tow hitch, safety lights, and everything else you’d need to haul it around. However, upon closer inspection something a little strange comes to light about this caravan, which sets it apart from any other RV or camper you have ever seen before.
That’s because it’s made completely out of thousands of LEGO pieces! The camper was special made for the 2015 Motorhome & Caravan Show that was held at the National Exhibition Center in Birmingham, UK. It was unveiled there and placed on display this past October 13th-18th.
According to the show’s organizer and marketing campaign director James Bissett “We wanted to create something truly unique to celebrate 130 years of leisure caravanning and we are absolutely delighted with our record-breaking model.” Also present at the unveiling was a Guinness World Records adjudicator who presented an official certificate recognizing the camper as the biggest LEGO camper ever. The last camper that held this honor was made from just 20,000 LEGO pieces, a far cry from this one.
That’s because to build this world record holding camper it took a whopping grand total of 215,158 LEGO bricks. In addition, a team of 12 professional LEGO builders worked for well over 1,000 hours for 12 weeks straight. When it was all said and done the project measured in at 2.2 meters tall and 3.6 meters long, the size of other similar types of campers on the market.
Watch as the life sized camper comes to life in this cool video that shows the entire process sped up, from brick number one to brick number 215,158. The type of caravan they chose to replicate is what’s called a “teardrop” style caravan.
It features all the modern amenities you’d expect, such as electric lighting, a sink with running water, and a table and seats that transform into a bed. The designers didn’t stop there though, they thoughtfully chose to include a chess set, toothbrushes, and even a partially stocked fridge and cooking stove, all of which were expertly crafted out of LEGOs!
The show’s organizers definitely had the right idea, the caravan model is really unique and unexpected. It’s something the whole family can enjoy and check out, and who doesn’t love LEGOs?!

Vicks VapoRub has been around forever, as a staple to relieve chest congestion and coughing, that brings back childhood memories of our moms taking care of us. While today, the go-to treatments usually come in the form of pills or tablets, Vicks is still in business treating ailments with Vapors.
The most important ingredients in Vicks, that relieve congestion and coughing through breathing in, are Camphor, Eucalyptus Oil and Menthol.

eHow suggests that when you awake rinse the Vicks with warm water and use a pumice stone to exfoliate the dead skin.

Have You Ever Transferred Your Old VHS Tapes Onto Your Computer? THIS Is The Easiest Way To Do It!
image via – shutterstock.com
Technology is constantly being improved and advanced upon, which makes it hard to keep up with. This has inevitably led to a number of once brand new and highly innovative products being rendered obsolete. VHS players are a perfect example of this since the previously popular and must have items are now a thing of the past.
As a result, many people’s extensive collections of VHS tapes featuring home videos and recordings go unused and end up sitting in boxes taking up space around the house. Besides being bulky dust collectors, those tapes may also be deteriorating and you risk losing anything on them.
VHS tapes have a shelf life which varies by brand and how used or rough they have been handled. If you want to preserve the homemade videos and memories they contain, transferring the tapes onto a computer is the ideal way to go.
By saving them in a new, updated digital format you can easily share them with others, edit the content, and watch videos without having to break out the old VHS player. Transferring VHS tapes to a computer can be simple and easy if you know what you’re doing.
In this quick video tutorial CNET senior editor Donald Bell walks through the transfer process and if you follow what he does, you’ll be all set. First and foremost, he makes it very clear that this is only for archiving home video footage and not copyrighted TV shows or movies.
It’s illegal to duplicate and/or distribute such programs as doing so violates their copyrighted content and can get you in a lot of trouble. To do this type of transfer you need a VCR player with audio and video output, VHS tape(s), a computer with room on the hard drive, and a compatible adapter to connect the computer and VCR.
One hour of video will take up approximately 750 megabytes of storage on your computer’s hard drive, so if you prefer to save space on your computer an external hard drive is recommended. Also, the adapter must be compatible with the type of computer you’re using, PC or Mac, or it won’t work.
To start, first plug in the adapter’s color coded ends to their matching connections on the backside of the player. The yellow connection is for video, white is for mono audio, and white/red is for stereo audio. Install the software included with the adapter and follow the steps it takes you through until you’re able to see and hear the video, this shows that it’s properly connected.
Now you can name the file and start the transfer. Press the record button and hit play on the VCR to record in real time. Real time recording means that you have to wait for the whole thing to play through and press stop recording when you’re done.
After that you can edit out any unwanted portions from either the beginning or the end of the video. Finally, a file path to the location of the file you just created will show up, along with options to watch, upload, or further edit the video.
Now you can burn the videos onto DVDs or transfer them to other computers and send copies of them to friends and family. Best of all, you can throw out all those bulky VHS tapes or put them away in storage for good!
Pass this information along to others whose video collections could use an upgrade and help them preserve all the memories and milestones they’ve captured on VHS in digital format.

He Pours Molten Aluminum Into THIS Fish Tank. What’s Revealed Inside Is So Awesome!
image via – youtube.com
SCIENCE MEETS ART in this really cool video you are about to watch. YouTube’s “The Backyard Scientist” demonstrates how adding polymer beads to water creates an environment that will allow molten aluminum to turn into magnificent pieces of sculpture.
When he pours 10,000 tiny polymer beads into an aquarium filled with water, the beads absorb the water, becoming nearly 200 times their weight! They provide an environment for the molten aluminum that he dangerously heats, to be transformed.
He amusingly interviews his dog, providing him with protective goggles which he reluctantly dons a pair for himself as well, and then procedes to throw the molten aluminum inside the tank of water.
You simply won’t believe your eyes as the aluminum becomes solid and he removes each unique piece from the large tank. Voila! Instant truly beautiful coral-like sculptures that I, myself, would like to own. Let us know what you think.
Have you ever seen anything like this before? Enjoy! 🙂

She Just Figured Out And Revealed The 1 Unexpected and Surprising Secret To Strong and Flawless Nails!
image via – youtube.com
Our hands are quite possibly the most used parts of our bodies and because of that they often end up taking a beating. Day after day we wash them over and over, every now and then things smash into them, and other times we jam them into places like doors and tight cracks.
Inevitably this leads to other parts of our hands sustaining damage, especially our nails. The wear and tear nails go through can often make them weak, brittle, and unattractive looking. It isn’t always feasible to go to the salon and get them fixed up every week, but there are a few simple steps you can take at home to make your nails stronger and healthier.
One of the main culprits that causes nail damage is polish remover. The stuff is just very strong and very harsh, so if you ever need it, make sure to use an acetone-free type. Your nails will be stronger in the long run because acetone-free nail polish remover is much more gentler and doesn’t strip away moisture like other removers do.
One area of nail care that many people get wrong is filing their nails. If you’re serious about having stronger nails, you’ll need to invest in a crystal nail file. These are superior to other types of files because they lessen the likelihood of ending up with chipped, peeling nails, and leave nail edges smoother. Also, never file back and forth, instead only file in one direction.
Next, you can’t overlook cuticles and smearing on a little bit of cuticle cream throughout the day on them will soften and smooth both nails and cuticles. It also makes pushing back cuticles easier, which you should aim to do at least once a week to keep nails looking neat and pretty.
Hand skincare is also essential, especially in cold, dry winter weather. Use moisturizer daily and after washing your hands to keep them soft and moisturized. There are hundreds of hand creams on the market and in case you’re not sure which works best, YouTube channel cute polish recommends her favorite, which is O.P.I avojuice.
Also, when washing dishes or cleaning with chemicals and sprays around the house, always use a pair of gloves to protect skin and nails from harsh cleaning products.
Finally, to remove ugly polish stains on nails it’s best to lightly buffing the surface of them. If the stains won’t come off try using a nail cleaner, like Bubble White from Sally’s Beauty Supply. To help prevent nail stains in the first place, always paint on a base coat before applying colored polish over it.
The base coat also protects nails and helps keep them strong, so don’t skip it! These are the most basic and essential steps that you can take at home to both achieve and maintain stronger, healthier, beautiful looking hands and nails.
Try them out you’ll see the results in no time at all!
