In this ridiculous video, we're treated to some more jet action, courtesy of F4ithHD. While we've seen players jump out of their jets and get back in after getting a kill, we've never seen someone ride their jets like a surfboard. That's exactly what F4ithHD does as he jumps out of his jet, lands on it, gets a lock on an enemy and fires off a shot before jumping back into the vehicle's cockpit. This move is so pro that it makes us feel bad about our noobish skills.

Crazy dirt bike stunt

This is the same concept as the C4 and the tank, only it's even cooler because it's using as a dirtbike that gets launched even further. It's awesome that TheMasterRPG-7 simply points to his target, much like Babe Ruth, and his teammate send him flying into the distance. In midair, he lines up an RPG and blows up a jet that's unlucky enough to fly into it. Now that's a home run.

Awesome ways video games tied to real life stories

Video games don't need to exist only in a virtual space. Gaming has become such a part of our everyday lives that it often creeps out into our reality and affects us in very real ways. Of course, the most common real-life consequences of excessive gaming are blood clots, relationship troubles, and insomnia. But there are countless other actual human events directly related to gaming as well. Here are a handful of real-life stories (both happy and not-so-much) made possible by your favorite digital pastime.

The Swordquest medallion

The concept behind the Swordquest series was pure awesome. Players would compete through four different Atari games to solve complex puzzles combining in-game clues and comics packaged with each game, and whoever solved the puzzle first would get a real, amazing treasure. It was all pretty high concept for Atari, but they only carried it out across two games by the time the crash of 1983 brought everything to a halt. By then, a $25,000 medallion and a $25,000 chalice had been awarded. Steven Bell, the winner of the medallion, sold his prize to pay for college, so there was a happy ending after all.
