Cold Takes 002 | Bucket List

A gun writer with 50 years in the field breaks down the hunts he'd do all over again — from stalking rusa stag on a French island in the South Pacific to chasing caribou across endless sub-Arctic tundra. If you've been saying "one day" for the last ten years, here's your list.

A Scottish council just hired a "Toxic Masculinity Project Officer" at £50K a year to go into schools and teach boys as young as eight that their nature is the problem. Meanwhile, boys are failing across the board in education and nobody's talking about it. An academic tears the whole thing apart.

It's called the Hypersail. 100 feet of carbon fiber, hydrofoils that lift the entire hull out of the ocean at speed, and over 50 knots on nothing but wind and solar. For reference, the fastest sailboat its size barely cracks 40. It launches this summer and it's already the quickest of its kind. Look at this thing.

He's 6'4", 306 pounds with 6% body fat. He ran a 4.63 forty — faster than wide receivers drafted ahead of him. His broad jump beat every defensive tackle at the combine by 14 inches. His hands measure 11 inches. He's the fastest 300-pounder ever recorded. And he has never played a single down of organized football in his life. Uar Bernard grew up in a tiny Nigerian village, trained on tree trunks, learned pass-rushing from YouTube, and got discovered by former NFL star Osi Umenyiora at a camp in Africa. The Eagles took him 251st overall. On Friday, a teammate had to help him strap on his helmet before his first ever practice. His rookie deal is worth $4.5 million. The only other player ever drafted without football experience made the Pro Bowl. This story is a blockbuster in the making.

The funniest, most cringeworthy and most outrageous clips of people fucking around and finding out.
