Lionel Messi documentary

Lionel Messi documentary

A recent 45-minute documentary on Lionel Messi, which starts with his discovery in Argentina and runs through the end of last season.

It’s funny seeing Messi playing as a kid…the style is essentially the same, but in an even smaller package. (via @dens)

The Shoes / Time To Dance music video featuring Jake Gyllenhaal
Epic 8-min music video starring Jake Gyllenhaal as a serial killer in a fencing outfit? Yes, please. I love everything Daniel Wolfe directs and this one for The Shoes is another stunner.

Watch the video below! WARNING: This one’s fairly violent!

South Korean artist, Seo Young Deok creates beautifully accurate sculptures out of a single material, bicycle chain.

His latest solo-exhibition, Dystopia, is currently travelling the world.  View more of his pieces at youngdeok.com.
