Stuff You May Not Have Known - Thatguheye - 07-17-2012
This is Sonny Moore before he became Skrillex. Kid actually has a voice.
Post stuff that blew your mind when you first found out.

I'm just surprised you didn't know he does a lot of the singing for his current songs that have vocals (note: I didn't say vocal samples, but vocals). He always alters his voice, but in the end, the effect is always amazing.

Never knew that's how the hydraulics system worked.

Well i knew that, but i didn't know he was in a band prior to becoming Skrillex. When you look at a more in-depth perspective of an artist it really makes you appreciate their work more. Most people see Skrillex as just this guy who suddenly blew up and makes songs with no talent. By looking more into their story as an artist changes your perspective on them, and i think that's a big part of the reason why people think he's so overrated because they haven't seen that other side. He really does have talent with singing and all the work that he puts into producing his music, that's why he's so huge.

I just watched part of this, and it actually is really interesting. I never really knew anything about hydraulics either.

They have tons of those videos. It's part of a program that you pay $75 for and it teaches you how to completely fly a 737NG from start to finish, and what everything does. And it's all for a simulator.

Aviation is really cool. I think it'd be one of the sweetest things to be able to fly a jet, though i could never go into the complication of anything related to flying XD

Absolutely, man. He hit the notch in the music industry nowadays: the 13 - 25 year old fad lifestyle. Hipsterism. I'm not insulting him in any way, it's just how it is, really.

If you couldn't tell by my signature, I'm an aviation nut. My plans for my career is to open my own charter company. I'm not sure if I'd like to be an airline pilot though.
I currently play Flight Simulator X online with a community called Boston Virtual ATC. I actually bought the PMDG 737NGX, which is the airplane featured in that video up there. It's extremely complex, and so complex that companies (such as Angle of Attack, who made those videos up there) exist to teach you how to use it. >_>
There's a video of someone fast forwarding through an entire flight.

If you look at the background carefully, you'll notice Duke was wearing a cowboy hat that fell off

Look closely at Doomguy's offhand. Contrary to popular belief, he doesn't have a second gun.

Also, Fox from Star Fox had his legs amputated to prevent fainting, as g force causes blood to rush downwards.
