Water may not be useful in propelling a rocket into the air but it helps to safely launch. NASA is developing a massive water fountain for its Space Launch System that shoots out an insane 500,000 gallons of water in about a minute. Besides helping to extinguish the flames from the rocket, ...

This homemade ATV may look like it has balloons for tires, but that doesn't mean it can't get you to where you need to go. It may not get you there as fast as other options, but no matter what obstacle gets in your way you can ride over it or drive across it. Land or sea, this giant-wheeled ...

Sometimes you really need some water. A squirrel at the Grand Canyon found itself in just that type of situation when a tourist offered up their water bottle. It's safe to say the squirrel was appreciative and took full advantage as it grabbed the bottle with both hands and started chugging. ...

Firefighting is inherently dangerous, so anything that can make it safer is a welcome addition to any firefighting crew. The PyroLance is unlike any hose you've ever seen. With a water gun on steroids design, this attachment allows firefighters to literally cut a 6mm hole through a wall. Once ...

After a wildfire broke out on the bank of a lake, a boater decided to help keep it under control until help arrived.

Extremely high temperatures during the summer months at India's Tadoba National Park means water becomes even more scarce. This leads to animals congregating around waterholes in order to have enough water to survive. Predator and prey can be found at these spots at any given time. Naturally, ...

There's nothing quite as relaxing as being on the water. Whether it's a day of fishing or taking a dip in the middle of a hot afternoon, life is better when it involves water. Apparently, water doesn't always feel the same about us. In fact, sometimes it looks like it has a mind of its own and ...

A lion cub at the National Zoo in Washington, DC, learned it had to be ready for anything after it got knocked into the water by its mom.

If this guy isn't the wheelie king of Silver Lake then we're not sure the world's ready for anyone better. This guy takes his sand car to some crazy levels of two-wheeled driving when he bombs it across the water. He may not actually be floating on the water like it looks at first, but that ...

If you watched the Super Bowl this year and stuck around for the commercials, then you probably saw the new Jeep ad. In the commercial, a Jeep Wrangler can be seen crossing a stream in a way only a Jeep can. If you're anything like us, you watched it and thought, "Man, I really want a Jeep" — ...

If you've ever been on the river or seen one, you've probably realized they typically curve and wind instead of flow in straightaways. It seems like it's pretty obvious why rivers curve and often follow and 'S' shaped pattern, but a lot more goes into it than following the path of least resistance. ...

It sounds like it should be impossible for anything to cut an anvil in half — much less water. But when that water is being blasted out at 60,000 psi, things don't exactly go in the anvils favor. Over the course of 39 minutes and 54 seconds, it becomes apparent that there probably isn't anything ...

We've covered the SHERP before but at that point, we weren't sure when or if we'd ever see it in the States. Thanks to octacruiser making a 9-hour trip to pick one up, we have a bit more of an in-depth look at what this bad boy can do. It's still the go anywhere do anything vehicle that'll take ...
