Every small-town tough guy thinks he'd never take treatment like this. Then when they get down to Parris Island, that small-town tough guy quickly realizes: You will take treatment like this and like it. Welcome to a behind-the-scenes look at Marine Corps recruit training. Drill Instructors are the thing of legend — I remember, when they finally let us sleep for the first time, about 50 truly harrowing hours from the time we arrived, and those lights shut out, each of us in our racks, I heard a decent handful of grown men crying for their mothers. I'm not even joking.

Breathtaking Parkour!

Parkour is known as "the art of displacement" and hails from France. It's a training discipline that developed based on military obstacle course training. It became popular among young people, men especially in the 1990's and 2000's. The goal behind this is to be able to have total control of your body in the air as well as ground, moving efficiently and smoothly through a variety of obstacles. Parkour practitioners seem to defy gravity with the incredible movements and jumps they perform. It's breathtaking to watch!

Bolivia's road to death is a 80-90 km pathway from La Paz (the peace) to Coroico.

Once a dangerous dirt road, the "road to death" is now a paved stretch, still dangerous because of the jungles and steep edges. 

Yes, you can drive on this pathway, and curiously enough, most people prefer to drive it at night because at least that way they can see the lights coming!

10 Popes Who Resigned

Pope Benedict XVI yesterday announced his resignation as 266th Pope. What may be surprising to many is that history is not without its fair-share of popes who resigned. This list looks at ten of them. They all resigned for different reasons (some good—some bad) but they serve to show that there is, indeed, a precent for this surprising act, and—most surprisingly—a number of these resigning popes ended up becoming saints.

Images from a snake slaughterhouse at Kapetakan village in Indonesia’s West Java province. Wakira, who is known as “Boss Cobra”, owns the slaughterhouse that produces snake meat and skin. Snake meat is believed by some to be a remedy for skin diseases and asthma, as well as an aid to increase virility. The snake skins, measuring in the hundreds of metres, are sold to bag factories in the West and Central Java provinces on a monthly basis. The price of a bag made from snake skin costs between 150,000 rupiah ($ 15.60) and 300,000 rupiah ($31.20), depending on its size. That snakeskin handbag you’ll buy is costing a hell of a lot more.

Swedish architect Gert Wingårdh and Finnish illustrator Kustaa Saksi have collaborated on an architectural design project intended to serve as a temporary event space for the Hello! panelists at the 2013 Stockholm Furniture and Light Fair. Made up of 700,000 sheets of A4 paper, the venue boasts a brilliantly designed setting for some of the world's most innovative minds to discuss contemporary design culture. This year's topic for the annual event is "communication" and Wingårdh and Saksi's structure communicates its own message about beauty in design through its construction, material makeup, and elaborate color scheme.

DuDug is an international street art collective that has taken over an abandoned ship on the beaches of Llanerch-y-Mor in North Wales, repurposing its deserted carcass as a large canvas for their graffiti art project referred to as The Black Duke. The once highly revered cruise liner known as the Duke of Lancaster was left to rust on a dry dock since 1979 and only finally approached and transformed by these group of artists last year.

Not your typical spiral staircase, this organic form is a concept by artist and architect Andrew McConnell. The piece, entitled the Vertebrae Staircase, is based off of the spine of a whale. According to the artist's website, the project "is not simply mimicry of organic form but an exploration in shaping structure. Much of the design work went into refining the single component, or vertebra, that mate with each other creating a unified spine running from floor plate to floor plate."

Tumblr user hateplow has created a series of GIFs that shift back and forth between figurative sculptures and pixelated abstractions. The glitchy animated images present an intriguing perspective of art. They're hypnotizing in their constant shape-shifting motion, but they also showcase the different forms one work of art can take. Any given piece is a chosen form of interpretation out of a wide spectrum of possible renditions, revealing the artist's option to either replicate a figure exactly, add geometric ridges, or blur the creation entirely.

For photojournalist Sarah Fretwell, photography is an outlet that goes beyond art—it is a medium through which the world is given insight into the lives of people who would otherwise never be heard. For her powerful The Truth Told Project, the photographer has ventured out to the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) for 50 days to capture portraits and statements from young girls and women who have suffered unimaginable sexual violence as innocent victims of war.

Li Hongbo’s artwork may look like porcelain or gypsum sculptures at first, but that’s only until he demonstrates how flexible they are. Beijing based artist, book designer and editor creates these busts and sculptures out of thousands of layers of glued thin paper. Hongbo builds the honeycomb-like structures by strategically placing the glue on each sheet of paper, and then gives the desired shape to it.

9 Years on Mars

NASA's Mars rover Opportunity just celebrated its ninth anniversary on Mars - a mission that was originally meant to last just 90 days. Although recently eclipsed in the news by its bigger brother Curiosity, Opportunity is still going strong and making valuable scientific discoveries. Launched into space in 2003, Opportunity bounced to a hole-in-one landing in a small crater on Mars' Meridiani Planum on January 25, 2004. It has since spent 3,212 Martian days, or sols, on the surface, slowly moving from target to target, exploring craters, meteorites, unusual rock formations, and finding evidence of past water activity. Over the past 108 months, Opportunity has driven a total of 35.48 kilometers (22.05 miles) across Mars -- not bad for a mission designed to last only three months.
