Blacksmith Makes a Detailed Replica of Thor’s Hammer

I’m not huge Thor fan (for an immortal god, he’s kinda whiny), but I am a fan of watching people who are really good at what they do, do that thing they do:

[NOTE: At the end when they’re test-driving Mjölnir, one of the hammer-swingers is wearing a NSFW t-shirt. Which you may not even notice, because you’ll be too busy watching something get smashed with a 20-pound hammer in slow motion, which is totally awesome.]

This week’s uncaptioned picture for you to play with:


Kris, who, apparently, was the only other person besides me to sit through all 8 hours of “The Stand”.


PRODUCTION NOTES:
#1: When creating lolbama! pictures, please caption with either black or white text, as colors like red and yellow tend to blur badly when I compress the images.

#2: Standard image size for these posts is 350px wide by whatever high. If you can have your images 350px wide before you caption them, I won’t end up shrinking your captions into illegibility when I re-size the images.

MAKE YOUR OWN: The free lolbuilder from I Can Has Cheezburger.

STYLE NOTE: Short captions are usually better. Your goal is 10 words or less, with humor value tending to increase exponentially as the number of words approaches 1.

IMAGE SOURCES: Lots of great Obama pics to be found at the White House Flickr page.

Send your submissions to lolterizt@gmail.com and – if they aren’t obscene (IMAO is a PG-13 site) and don’t suck too terribly bad – I’ll post them for you. Remember to include your name (and blog URL, if applicable) so I know who to thank.
