Hmm, let's think for a minute.

A small pane of glass
A bagel (cream cheese and jam optional)
A large chunk of ice
Something that's on fire
A can of paint
A combination printer/scanner
A plasma bulb, preferably while lit
A regular lightbulb
A taco
A lit Jack-O-Lantern (can you say "Halloween episode"?)
A glass vase, complete with water and flowers (bonus points if it's clear)
A lit smokebomb (the fireworks kind, not the ninja kind)
A glass bowl full of bouncy balls

Sounds like a fun idea for a series, what's /not/ to like about it :P

What about 3 balloons filled with different coloured paints, then sell the result on eBay, just to see how much you'd get?

Also, not, so much DROPPING but you could say they are, how about having somebody jump off and see how they land in slow mo. Get somebody pudgy so we can watch the ripples :D

A tube light.

An old TV.

A flatscreen TV or monitor.

Drop a powered lawnmower or hedge trimmer or something onto another thing that'll shred really interestingly, like a pile of foam board or something.

I second a lava lamp.

A plasma ball/lamp/thing (you know, those things that were really popular in the 90s). Preferably lit.

An old CD player/radio/boombox.

A whole drawer of cutlery (into/onto a foam/polystyrene board, so that they'll stand a good chance of sticking in).


Uh... I'm out, for now.

Some silly suggestions just to break the expectations:

A facing the camera, sideways dive (coming from out of frame) to try and catch something while making the usual "noooooooooooooooooo" expression. I'll leave it up to you guys to figure out something and someone where this would make sense, assuming it is possible. I imagine you'd also need something to land on ((air)matress? don't know where you are filming or what you have handy); I don't expect anyone to risk injury taking a dive onto bare concrete or anything. You'll probably need something that can survive a few takes too, unless you have a lot of it.

Creepy dog figurine doing nothing at all but staring into your soul (in super slow motion) just to stir up the escapist people :twisted:

Oh, and I just thought of another thing: if you do find something soft to land on - you should film each crew member falling on greenscreen, just so you have some stock footatge of that if you ever need to do an LRR skit near the edge of a cliff :wink:

Also let paul do a things on my head in slow motion episode.

Any way to get the full music file used in the teaser. I don't care if they are just a bunch of loops. It just works so well!

On a side side note, I just bought Publishers Club for how much content you provide along side the other videos I watch there. And man you guys look amazing. Thank you.

Something gelatinous. Jell-o, for example.

This looks pretty neat. I'm excited for Thursday!
