contour it a little bit if you want. then, you add the wig. here is the eye makeup. black eyeliner to line your eyes. >> you can't go without the eyelashes. put a little mass scare ra on and this one was kind of funky. she is using the eyelash glue to put on her lips and then she uses glitter. >> she didn't get a glittery lipstick. she is gluing glitter to her mouth? you can't get rid of glitter even if you don't have glue on it. >> i see you doing something with glue and peanut butter and jelly. >> we should hook those guys up? >> we totally should. it's go-pro video like you have never seen before. >> from inside the go-pro

a secret around the office. that's why it looks like this. i am not the only one that suffered from this drop your phone syndrome. so what is this engineer in japan to figure out a solution. for this engineer, this would mean tests, calculations. he breaks a few more phones and drops the phones from a really high altitude at one point. eventually, he comes up with this device, the march phone case. >> you are definitely not going to keep that in your back pocket. >> look at what it does. >> there it goes. the phone is falling. look at what starts to happen. this case starts opening up and launches the air bags that are going to protect the phone from your impact, boom. >> phone air bags. >> i don't think i need to say this is all fiction. >> if honda tries to tell us that their cars will protect us like this man's case will protect a phone. >> that's exactly what they are trying to tell you. >> there is no end to the

creativity of go-pro usage. theanywhere. here is something we haven't seen. go-pro footage, something we haven't seen before, from inside the go-pro offices. this is really cool, because the cameras are mounted on former major league soccer players, davis paul and demitrius afroid. they are saying hi to all their cubicle mates. a fun day at the office. >> they are giving us a tour and showing off some of their dribbling skills. >> up and down the stairs dribblingle ball all over the place, through the doors. they go in the cafeteria. check out what people are eating. >> that's a nice cafeteria. >> a pretty cool place to work. i think the coolest part of the go-pro office in my opinion is this lobby area. they have got a race car and motorcycle.

>> can we get that here, please? >> the boss wants to show us his trampoline skills. the dog is watching the first jump, successful. watch the second one. nice! >> dangling. >> oh, my gosh. that is the ugliest break you have seen in a couple weeks on this show. it was like he had a rubber leg and he is trying to hold it together. eventually, somebody did throw him some assistance. i don't know how they expected him to get up and get it. his leg broke in four places leaving him with a compound fracture and now a titanium rod in his leg. he said he is sorry for whoever watches this. stuff happens and he wants kids to be safe when they try stuff like this. >> i don't want to see it again. i don't want to see it again. >> this stunt didn't go well either. this guy has made a homemade bazooka and put a fire rocket in it and watch what happens. >> the rocket comes out of the

tube that he is throwing and it blows up. >> he chickened out. that could have been a cool stunt. >> they do it right. >> i think it is just that it buys his ear and i think he didn't think it was going to shoot out. instead, it exploded while it was sitting on his shoulder. >> i am wondering if this thing got hot. he has gloves and stuff on. it is a homemade bazooka. something you might want to avoid. >> probably. >> that's it for rtm. we'll see you next time.
