Bad Boys

Bad Boys

No, not the one you're thinking of. Say "Bad Boys" to any avid movie watcher and they'll probably think of Will Smith and Martin Lawrence immediately, but that wasn't the first film to bear the name. Another "Bad Boys" with Sean Penn in the lead role was made a full twelve years earlier than the famous one, way back in 1983. Perhaps it's not as fondly remembered because it was made with no attention to detail whatsoever.

There is a fairly climactic fight scene in the movie - the sort of all out brawl that "Fight Club" would be proud of, with both men reaching for a screwdriver to finish the other off - and the cameraman is in shot. We don't mean that he's just a little bit in shot, just stood off to the right or left, or that he's visible for a second and then he disappears. We mean he's literally right there, with his camera, front and center.

Did You Know...

Over the years, weve seen so many food trends come and go, such as ramen burgers, matcha, and spiked ice-cream. Nowadays, were seeing another trend making waves in the food industry. How many times today have you seen an Instagram photo of a scoop of black ice cream, or a cup of black yogurt, or hamburgers with black buns? Indeed, the charcoal trend has taken the world by storm.

So, what gives your latte that deep black shade? Activated charcoal, or coconut ash, is produced by heating coconut shells to insanely high temperatures until theyre burnt to a crisp. The ashes are then increased in size by steaming at high temperatures. Through this process, the ashes become a strong detoxifier, mostly because they become extra absorbent. This product may be purchased in pill form, and promises to alleviate hangovers, minimize the effects of food poisoning, and fight the visible signs of aging.

Activated charcoal is said to boost ones energy as a result of decreasing toxins in the body. However, no evidence proves that detoxifying can lead to increased energy. Also, while it can help cure a hangover, it doesnt necessarily remove alcohol from your blood. It is also said to aid in debloating your stomach because it cleanses your colon but again, this all anecdotal and isnt supported by scientific evidence as of yet. All we can say for sure is that it is a proven detoxifier.
