We are back with a new selection of videos to tickle your fancy. These videos are not all from this week, but they all made us laugh or caused our jaws to drop recently. Enjoy!

This bear knows kung-fu

Recommended Videos

Does this seem a little unfair to anyone else? I mean, it is already a bear, a fairly fierce member of the animal kingdom, but on top of that it also knows kung-fu? Hopefully whatever twisted master passed on the secrets of martial arts to this bear paid for it dearly when the two faced off in a cage match during the Tekken tournament.

Ladies and gentlemen, the magical stylings of Matt Mulholland

This video came to us directly from the beautiful and talented Felicia Day, star of the hit web-series, The Guild. I think she, like, has a crush on me or something. That’s cool though. Sure, maybe it was just something on her Facebook page, but I know she meant it for me…

In this video, Matt Mulholland, a musical genius from New Zealand, totally rocks out to Celine Dion’s “My Heart Will Go On”. But you should watch it anyway, because it is funny.

Pole dancing goes horribly wrong

Pole dancing — it is a privilege, not a right. If you look at the bride, you can see that she is not a fan of the dancer to begin with. Her opinion is unlikely to have been changed following the “incident.”

If you watch carefully, you can see a man, who in a moment of terrified recognition, attempts to stop what is about to happen. Luckily for the world of viral videos, he failed.

A casual motorcycle ride through Moscow

In this video filmed from the helmet cam of a motorcycle rider in Moscow, this soon-to-be organ donor decides that traffic is just for people that value life.

Man goes for a leisurely walk inside an active volcano

Volcanologist Geoff Mackley and his crew descended into a volcano on the Vanutan island of Ambrym and took this incredible footage. Keep in mind that despite Geoff’s casual attitude in the video, the lava that is dancing behind him is between 1,300 and 2,200 degrees Fahrenheit- hot enough to melt even the most advanced Terminator.

Geoff and his crew spent some time arguing in the crater before Gollum finally arrived and bit the ring off his finger before falling into the lava, thus saving the world.

Get a 32-inch 1440p monitor for only $160 with this Amazon deal
The 32-inch KTC H32T13 monitor with a colorful display.

If you've been thinking about finally upgrading your outdated monitor, the good news is that you don't have to spend a lot if you want a great display. The KTC H32T13 is a perfect example of a budget-friendly option, especially now that it's on sale from Amazon with a 20% discount that lowers its price further to $160 from $200. This bargain will only be online for a limited time though, and since most monitor deals as affordable as this one sell out quickly, you should think about hurrying with your purchase if you don't want to miss out on the $40 in savings.

Why you should buy the KTC H32T13 monitor
The KTC H32T13 isn't made by one of the brands you'll see in our list of the best monitors, but it's a nice purchase, as you can see from its high rating of 4.4 out of 5 stars from more than 500 customers. It's a pretty affordable display considering it's 32 inches, which is the upper end of our computer monitor buying guide's recommended size, and with Wide QHD resolution of 2560 x 1440, you'll enjoy stunning visuals with sharp details and bright colors.

If you’ve just grabbed one of the affordable gaming PC deals going on, don't forget to grab a monitor deal too. Right now at Walmart, you can buy an LG 27-inch UltraGear full HD gaming monitor for $126. That’s a fantastic price for such a large monitor -- even this screen normally costs $159. If you’ve just bought a mid-range or budget gaming PC and you want a good looking full HD screen to pair with it, you’ll be delighted with this option. Let’s take a look at what it has to offer for this great low price.

Why you should buy the LG 27-inch UltraGear full HD gaming monitor
The best gaming monitors are a little different from the regular best monitors, focusing more on high refresh rates and low response times. The LG 27-inch UltraGear full HD gaming monitor has all of that. It has a high refresh rate of 180Hz so it can handle fast-moving action from all your favorite games, from the latest Call of Duty to some fun sessions on Fortnite. There’s no risk of motion blur here. The LG 27-inch UltraGear full HD gaming monitor also has support for AMD FreeSync, which further helps matters.

AMD says that FSR 4 might not be an RDNA 4 exclusive after all
AMD announcing FSR 4 during CES 2025.

AMD will soon launch new graphics cards, although they were pretty much absent from its CES 2025 keynote. Fortunately, a new interview with Frank Azor, AMD's chief architect of gaming solutions and gaming marketing, gives us a little bit more information. One interesting tidbit from the interview is that FSR 4, currently an RDNA 4 exclusive, might still one day make it to older AMD GPUs.

Azor spoke to Michael Quesada in an interview that was later shared by El Chapuzas Informatico and VideoCardz. They spoke about FSR 4, but also the general price point and the predicted performance of the RX 9070 XT. Throughout the interview, it's made clear that AMD is angling for a value-oriented product this time around.
