Five scientific reasons the Dark Side will always win. Number five: "The color black is scientifically proven to intimidate people."
A different kind of war porn. I've linked this before, but it's cool enough to mention again. It's a promotional video for MineWolf demining systems. Pretty exciting for a promotional video.
