A buddy just posted this on his FB page. I cannot stop laughing, it's so stupid.

Remember how he couldn't stop his leg?

I don't even understand what I'm looking at - is a record supposed to go in there somewhere?

I think that thing appears in the trailer for the new Saw movie.

LeBron James bought two of them, but all he does with them is that tired 'Peter Piper' cut-up routine.

Oh, good heavens. I didn’t realize. I send my condolences out to the rest of the O’Connor family.

I think the record goes on top. The thing at the very top is called a 'tangential tonearm'. The weight I think ensures your record is perpendicular to the vector for the gravitational force, and that's why it's so tall. I'm still not fully understanding it.

Anyhow in their own words it has:

Patented magnetic-driven sub-platter (makes no contact with main platter)

Additional magnetic vertical platter bearing

All platters dynamically balanced

Automatic horizontal levelling device including tonearm platforms (no air pump or compressor)

80kg pendulum weight for self levelling of top platform

High speed microprocessor-controlled motor drive unit (as used in Mars Rover)

Oil damping devices for the main turntable chassis

Complete resonance control via damped and sandwiched bullet-proof wood (Panzer Holz)

The related article said that the flock of birds had attacked the plane.
