Watch Mireia Belmonte run in a bubble full of Hyundai Nexo emissions


This is a commercial for Hyundai Nexo, featuring Olympic swimmer Mireia Belmonte. The Korean automaker wanted to show how clean the vehicle's emission is, so they challenged the 28-year-old Spanish athlete to run on a treadmill inside a bubble connected to the SUV's exhaust pipe.

The Nexo is a hydrogen fuel cell powered automobile that emits water vapor and 99.9 percent filtered oxygen instead of pollutants. So the air in Mireia's sealed space should probably be cleaner than the air most urban dwellers are breathing right now. Hyundai, however, still worked with a sports medical center while filming the promo to ensure the safety of the athlete.

The Adorable Sculptures of Yen Yen Lo

These images are from a series of wall sculptures created by Yen Yen Lo . Here you can see her intricately textured ceramic pieces, looking downright adorable. Yen Yen Lo's eye for the unique and whimsical is delightful. Apparently they are not intended for kids under 16. Fifteen-year-olds cannot be trusted with fragile stuff. Get them a Funko Pop instead.
