The Swish Machine: 70 Step Basketball Trickshot

We've seen a lot of Rube Goldberg contraptions over the years, but this one is special for quite a few reasons. YouTuber Creezy spent a month building it and another month getting all the components working. When it all works, it's a thing of beauty. First you notice how stunningly elaborate the course is. He uses everything from a whiffle ball to concrete blocks. Then you notice what an awesomely beautiful backyard he has. Then you marvel at the camera work. It's not a drone, but a 360° GoPro MAX that captures all the glorious chaos, straight to the relatively unimpressive end. (via Twisted Sifter)
