"Never Say 'Never' Always Say 'Revver'" was filmed on location in Tokyo, which, believe it or not, according to Rob, actually resembles L.A. in many ways! So, check it out!

Sand Castle Explosions - Sand Blasters Music Video

Here we go again! For the second year in a row, Sand
Blasters: The Extreme Sand Sculpting Championship brings a
one-of-a-kind competition to Travel Channel. Paired off into
teams of two, 16 of the best sand sculptors from across

California, for the chance to win their share of $15,000 in
prize money. But there's one obstacle standing in their
way… Explosions! Over the course of this intense two-day
competition, five of the eight sculptures are randomly
selected for complete destruction by a Hollywood pyrotechnics
crew. The ill-fated blast victims then have the remaining
time to create another world-class work of art in order to
contend for the title of Sand Blasters 2007 Extreme Sand

This is brilliant! Every 30 Seconds....Directed by Jeremy Corray. By the time you finish reading this film synopsis, a drunk driver will cause a traffic accident. Every 30 seconds in America, a man is hit by a drunk driver. However, this little factoid isn't as terrifying as it might sound, since drunk drivers apparently hit the same guy every 30 seconds. This is that man's story. Don't miss the Hitchcock homage...
