Reminds me of the humble Dacia Sandero and how it changed from being a frequent Top Gear punchline to a car that James May couldn’t say enough good things about.

It’s more of a bobblehead than an actual action figure (which would be sooo much cooler), but still.

Creative reuse of industrially produced objects. You know there’s going to be great airflow through the fire chamber.

I’ve always thought of Cameo was this weird but strangely intriguing thing. I guess it’s not at all surprising that it’s being exploited in this way.

As someone with blue eyes (interestingly, both my parents had brown eyes), I’ve heard this theory floated a few times before.
The thing I often wonder through is if that mutation happened randomly once thousands of years ago to a single common ancestor, why couldn’t that same mutation randomly happen to someone else? I’m no expert on how genetics work so I’m probably missing something.

I wish I could find it now. My dad had a lot of “weird stuff” type books growing up. Erich Von Daniken, UFO’s, Ghosts, etc.
One such a book told the tale of periodic accounts similar to this video. A jetpack guy, tooling around over the ocean in California. The bizarre thing is, these accounts predated jet packs. The earliest one was in the mid-1800’s.*
*Assuming my recollection is correct of a book I read almost 30 years ago.
