There’s plenty of cases of drones crashing and hurting people lately, but I’ve not seen a video where the pilot crashes into himself. There aren’t any details attached to the video which was spotted by Reddit user Ghost_Animator. Another Reddit user suggested that the drone being used is likely a tiny 250-sized racing quadcopter which can fly at very high speeds and is often used for drone racing.

NASA
The U.S. job market seems to be reliably back on its feet, and it’s signalling a sea change for employers and employees alike. Job seekers are no longer desperate for any opportunity that comes along. Those who are currently employed are discarding the I’m-just-thankful-I-have-a- job mindset. At long last, many people have the luxury of stepping back, taking stock, and figuring out what they really want out of a job, career and company.

Arrow Hero
Once upon a time, there was Guitar Hero, which required you to be fleet of finger to master the hits. Now, meet Arrow Hero, which uses your fast fingers to…um…rack up a high score by hitting the arrow keys at the right moment. It’s very simple – as you can see from the GIF at the top of the page – but like so many really basic games before it, it’s also very addictive.
