Note: Must-see video is after the jump. To celebrate the 600-year anniversary of the Old Town Square astrological clock tower in the center of Prague, the city commissioned a video-mapping (other examples of video mapping HERE and HERE ) stunt spectacular lightshow to blow your f***ing socks off, back on, then off again and catch fire. Just watch it. It’s like magic going off in your eyeballs, if you know what that feels like. No? Well have you ever inhaled a fairy? No? Blown a gnome? Don’t lie! Hit the jump for 10:00 of amazingness. You can skip around, but I wouldn’t if I were you. Bill the man for all ten minutes.

Dogfight as in airplane battle, not dogfight as in I’m a peenerless d-bag who likes watching pitbulls bite each other. Which, fun fact: if I’m ever diagnosed with terminal cancer I’m coming for you. Me making you chew on a gun aside, this is an awesome jet-fighter scene created by Flickr user -Mainman- , who — need a wingman? For anyone who’s interested, the cockpit is somewhere around 1/2 scale (maybe a little smaller) and the F-15E and MiG-29 are 1/100 scale The flares are a couple of Exoforce fiber optic tubes with Lego light bricks on the far end. They worked out better than I expected - I love the lens flare I got with them. 
Incidentally, with the exception of the HUD display photoshopped in, there’s not a single non-Lego object in this photo Freaking awesome. Reminds me of when my brother and I would set barstools on their sides and sit in them while pretending we were fighter-jet pilots. No, no it doesn’t. Because that was actually a train. Now shovel some more coal in the wastebasket and let’s CHOO CHOO our way to a house fire! -Mainman-’s Flickr Gallery via Enemy in sight [brothers-brick] Thanks to The Bucktooth Ninja, who — Jesus man I could see you coming a mile away with those things. Get some tooth blackout or something.
