Once an ordinary Canadian guy with a female name Kyle McDonald decided to change a usual paper clip for house and even for island if he was lucky… He even supposed that it would take several stages and some time. His project was described here.

The idea came to his mind when he remembered a childish game with a purpose to get as much as possible, changing useless things for more expensive ones.

maze, corn maze, maize

Brett Herbst graduated Brigham Young University in 1995 and became another graduating student-agronomist. He didn’t care about job because the Herbsts owed hereditary business – ranch. Everybody has ranch in Idaho…

Brett bought huge vacant field a year later and planted it with corn. Please, note that corn price was not very high at that time, and neighbors were very skeptical about his actions. They all agreed that there wouldn’t have been goon profit even if the harvest had been rich. But Brett didn’t mean to sell his corn. When in autumn the field turned into dense two meters height thicket, he personally cut passages according to his own plan. Corn plantation turned into a giant maze!

In truth, Brett found this idea in one of agricultural magazine – such labyrinth was made to entertain public in Utah few years ago, and there were 18 thousand visitors for a few weeks.

Ferris wheel for cars

If you are not afraid of height and even ready to dine up in the sky, then you can realize one more childish dream – to fly in a car. Of course, it won’t be a car flight from “Harry Potter” or “Taxi 2” movies, but it will also be fascinating.

Dutch engineer John Kormeling designed Ferris wheel for cars in 2005. It reminds usual attraction, but there are only four “seats” for cars. Automobiles are placed on platforms, fastened with special ropes and… off we go! The journey lasts 15 minutes, and cars are lifted to 30 meters height. The whole city is like an open book… By the way, you give ignition key to the operator. Just in case…

The attraction passed all safety tests and is used all over Europe since 2006.

Movie Theater in Your Pool

cinema, movie, pool

It is a bold and vanguard idea. Since autumn, 2006, there is a new service in hotel Lindner Alpentherme in Leukerbad (Switzerland) – to watch the movie in pool! It is a combination of two pleasures in one… place. And if to take into account Coca-Cola and popcorn, there would be the whole set of three pleasures!

The setting reminds usual movie theaters – ticket office, ticket collector. You take your seat according to the ticket… and watch “Pirates of the Caribbean” from water. There, surely, would be an amazing effect.

The idea is not ridiculous, but tending to be a serious business-project, which will bring profit, money, and clients. What do you think?

Open Air parties

open air

On Open Air means outdoors. Summer is health. The holiday which lasts for several months… Everybody tries to go to river, visit holiday camp, and spend time on countryside. Cafe and restaurants (those which have opportunity) try to place their tables outside. You surely noticed that in fine summer evening all “street” tables are occupied, but there is nobody inside.

Here is the idea. Let’s organize an open air parties. Of course, this idea is not new, but it is undeservedly forgotten. I think that in past (50 years ago) there were dances in central gardens of every town and city. The orchestra and something like that… Definitely, nowadays such event would be successful, too. It is possible to carry out dances “for the 30 years old and older” or rave parties.

children’s dreams, kideo, animation film, cartoon

Every child deep in his/her heart dreams to become a hero of popular animation film. Boys dream about role of Batman and Spiderman, and girls want to be Cinderella and Princess. Of course, it is almost impossible to shot a cartoon with your offspring as a main hero, because it would cost you several thousand dollars. But look at this from the other side and imagine happiness of your child when he saw himself on screen!

But everything is not so bad! There is suchlike service, and I want to note that it is very popular. All necessary information about this service is available on the official website www.kideo.com. Its price is only $40, and in consideration of Americans’ incomes it is very-very cheap. If suchlike service existed in other contries it would immediately attract attention even in spite of 40$ price. I think nobody would be grudge when he could turn his child into superhero!

Let’s take a brief look at basics of this business. Popular cartoons are simply remade in templates, where face of the main hero and parts of dialogs, where the main hero is called by name, are taken away. Next step is to transform the photo of your child into animation picture and insert in ready template. The same procedure is made for sound.
