1,500 birds Invade a House Through the Chimney, Hitchcock Style [Video]

It was a scene straight out of Hitchcock’s 1963 horror flick “The Birds” for one Torrance, California, homeowner, who says hundreds of birds flew into her home through the chimney. “There were birds coming out of everywhere. It was insane,” the homeowner said. It took them three whole days to remove more than 1,500 birds by hand. The birds left quite a mess in their wake. Incredibly, the same thing just happened 100 miles north in Montecito, but a steel grate kept 1,000 birds out of the house.

Naruto Inspired Fan Fight: Hyuga vs. Uchiha [Video]

From RE: Anime:

Naruto Inspired Fight (really inspired by Rivenx3i).

Fun fact! We shot this on our day off and we’re supposed to just play volleyball. I had my camera in my car and we decided to shoot this as a test fight for Instagram. Calvin Chin edited it together and did such an amazing job that it made us get Brandon Bilyk and Diego Woods on board to do the VFX and release this on youtube! Do you guys wanna see more fights like this?
