rockets

Just like those endless videos of satisfying mechanics and perfection, there are countless videos of epic shockwaves, whether from military ordinance, disasters, or simple backyard shenanigans. Whatever the case, the results are amazing, and shouldn't be missed. So we went ahead and gathered all the best ones from this week into one place, so instead of looking, you can simply sit back and enjoy.

No matter who you are or where you're from, there's one thing we can all agree on: rockets are cool. Most of us don't have the brain capacity to become rocket scientists, but the next best thing is available to everyone: model rockets (or awesome paper airplanes). At the top of the model rocket hierarchy is Estes, a globally known company with the best model rockets around. While building model rockets is fun, the best bit is launching them into the sky and seeing them reach the heavens. We captured ten of the best Estes model rocket launches in GIFs, so you can experience the awesomeness of a rocket launch minus the effort of making a model rocket yourself. You are welcome.
