An Irishman In Vegas

Ooops! Somebody forgot to tell dad how to use the GoPro camera while on vacation in Vegas. More specifically - which way to turn it while filming. We'd say what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas but not once social media's got a hold of it. Poor dad. At least his video is now a viral hit with over 2M views!...

So... Gave my Dad my GoPro while he was in Las Vegas, I did not, however, instruct him on how to use it, so my dad being my dad, and a culchie, didn't know which way to point the fucking thing...

Woman Freezes to Death in a Cryotherapy Chamber

And this treatment is used to help athletes heal their muscles? Scary! And she was a manager at this business? Something doesn't add up here. 24-year-old Hawaiian native, Ake-Salvacion, was discovered Oct. 20 inside a tank at the Rejuvenice spa in Henderson, Nevada, Las Vegas by a co-worker "frozen in solid ice." She was only supposed to be in there for 3 minutes - but was discovered 10 hours later!

For $65 per session, male visitors strip to their underwear (women go completely naked), then don a robe, white athletic socks, gloves and a surgical mask. They are then ordered by an employee to enter a chamber outfitted with a small window and digital readout, resembling a time machine. Once the door is closed, a cloud of vapor engulfs you and the temperature inside plummets to minus 220 degrees Fahrenheit. (By contrast, the lowest natural temperature ever recorded was minus 128.5 degrees Fahrenheit, registered in Antarctica.)

According to Kuehne, the low temperatures stimulate cells to produce proteins called cytokines, which are thought to fight inflammation. But the claims do not end there. Among the purported benefits of the therapy, reads the Rejuvenice website, cryotherapy "accelerates tissue healing, strengthens [the] immune system, improves blood circulation." It also claims to have "anti-aging" benefits, "burns 500-800 calories" and can be "beneficial against depression."

Las Vegas isn't Las Vegas

Interesting history lesson for us by CGP Grey about the city of Las Vegas, Nevada. "You aren't visiting the place you think you are." The things we have been associating with Las Vegas - aren't really in Las Vegas...
