Interactive tables

Picture this: you're in Vegas. You just lost a lot of money. You had a few drinks. And a few more drinks. Then you lost some more money and had a few more drinks. So you decide to go to the lounge to sit it out for a little while. You get the lounge, you put your hand on the table, and it bursts into flames. Or at least, it looks like it bursts into flames, right where your hand is. Move your hand, the flame moves.

Now, I don't know about you, but I would not stick around to see how that worked. I would run, not walk, to the nearest alcohol rehab center.

But seeing as how I am not in Vegas, didn't lose a lot of money, and am completely sober, I find these Human Locator interactive tables absolutely fascinating. Apparently they shine a projector down from the ceiling for effects similar to those videogames you wave at at Walmart. Only way more trippy.

Just be advised that some of these videos will crash Firefox if you let them get to the end.
