Red Bull to Launch Dude at Earth From Space
Okay. We get it, Red Bull -- you're EXTREME. They've certainly proved that point with their historic mission, which should be taking place today if weather holds. A trained pilot will be going a record 120,000 feet above the surface of the earth in a balloon, and then he's going to jump out and fall towards the earth at supersonic speeds.
QVC Host Faints On-Air, Co-Host Keeps on Sellin’
As we've learned from Lady Gaga AND Justin Bieber, the show must go on. Fortunately (is it?) QVC guest host Cassie Slane didn't barf in front of her audience. She just fainted a little bit after a second of chest patting.
D’Awww! Alert – Neglected Ducks See Water for First Time
Here's a little something to brighten your day. A flock of ducks was rescued from a bird hoarder who had never taken them to water. This is video footage of their first collective swim. But first, a wacky bit of duck herding, which is always good for a laugh...
‘Clueless’ Cast (Mostly) Reunites 17 Years Later
First 'The Princess Bride,' and now the cast of 'Clueless' are getting back together. It's been a good week for reunions.
See What Would Happen If Disney Villains Won
Artist and Mouse House fan Justin McTwisp thought it would be interesting to see what it would look like if the bad guys won at the end of a few Disney movies. We have to admit, that's a pretty banging coat Cruella DeVille winds up with (except for the whole puppy thing). And, truth be told, the fairies in 'Sleeping Beauty' *were* a little annoying.

‘Full House’ Cast Reunites — Where Are the Olsen Twins?
The 25th anniversary of 'Full House' has come and gone, and the cast decided to celebrate by reuniting. Meanwhile, the Olsen twins decided to pull a "Dewey" and not show up. We know, big shocker. But everybody else looked very happy and decidedly non-waifish. Take a look!
Crazy Squirrel Goes on Kitchen Rampage
We're glad this guy's instinct when he found a squirrel in his kitchen was to grab a camera and record it, rather than grab a broom and start screaming. The squirrel seems pretty panicked (what squirrel doesn't?), but maybe it was just gathering up speed for what might be the greatest escape in the history of animals trapped in kitchens...
Amy Poehler Nails Karaoke Roulette on ‘Ellen’
Amy Poehler just keeps on giving us more reasons to love her. For example, now we know that she has somehow managed to avoid learning the words to 'Bad Romance,' which is truly, truly admirable. Thank you, Ellen, for giving us this little gem to light up our day...
Best Dad Ever Sends Toy Train Into Space
We assumed this guy was the world's worst dad for taking his son's favorite toy and launching it into space. But it turns out he could track it using GPS so that it wouldn't be lost forever, and he is actually the coolest dad on earth because now his kid has a video of his train in space...
Best Twitter Reactions to the New iPhone 5
So Apple is releasing a new iPhone (again). It's thinner, lighter, bigger and faster. It comes with headphones that might actually fit your ears. It fits in your hand. It also possesses the ability to explode the Twitterverse. Here's what people are saying.
