Fans of Quentin Tarantino know that he has a foot fetish. For those unfamiliar with the term: it's when a man has a particular fascination with women's legs, and even more so with their feet. It's safe to say that Quentin Tarantino is the most famous foot fetishist in the world.

Let's start with Quentin Tarantino's first real film - Reservoir Dogs (1992). I'm skipping "My Best Friend's Birthday", as it was never officially released.

There's nothing related to foot fetishism in Reservoir Dogs: the film features only tough men. Women appear only briefly in a few background scenes. I found just one scene where a woman is shown in the foreground - the carjacking moment.

For years, I avoided clear broths. Childhood memories told me they were bland and only meant for sick days. Then I tried this recipe — and everything changed.
It’s crystal clear, gently aromatic, and full of flavor.

Ingredients

1 chicken breast, skin on

2 liters (about 8 cups) water

3 allspice berries

3 whole black peppercorns

2 sprigs fresh parsley

½ tablespoon salt, level

In his films, Woody Allen consistently uses the same typeface in the opening and closing credits. Midnight in Paris (2011):

When you're walking around New York City, you might easily miss an interesting detail: many manhole covers say "Made in India." Here's one of them:

You might not notice it right away. I zoomed in and rotated a section of the photo so it's clearer:

In The Fifth Element, there's a brief and easily overlooked scene in the middle of the movie where a spaceship takes off toward Fhloston Paradise. It only lasts a couple of seconds, but if you pause and take a closer look, you'll notice an interesting detail from the director.

I've numbered the key spots in the screenshot.

What we see is New York of the future. The ocean level has dropped dramatically, making the city look almost unrecognizable. The only question is - where could all the water have gone for sea levels to fall that much?

1 - The Statue of Liberty. It looks taller because of the extended base underneath.
2 - This marks the future ocean level. Somehow the ice caps didn't melt to add more water to the seas. Did humanity ship the water off to other planets?

3 - Manhattan, 4 - Brooklyn, 5 - The Brooklyn Bridge connecting them. With the water gone, the bridge is now spanning a canyon instead of a river.

And on what used to be the ocean floor, they've built a spaceport.

Did you know that there are almost no lamp posts in Copenhagen? Open Google Maps and see for yourself.

Instead of posts, the city uses lamps suspended over the middle of the road.

Wind turbines keep getting bigger every year. There's one main reason for that: the longer the blades, the more powerful the turbine. But couldn't you just install two smaller turbines instead of one large one? To answer this, let's take a look at real-world data.

Goldwind is a Chinese wind turbine manufacturer. Here are photos of their operating turbines from the company website:

Goldwind GW 82 / 1500 - output: 1500 kW (1.5 MW). Rotor length: 82.3 meters, meaning a blade diameter of roughly 41.15 meters.

Goldwind GW 171 / 6000 - output: 6000 kW (6.0 MW). Rotor length: 171 meters, giving a blade diameter of about 85.5 meters.

Even here you can already see that the relationship between blade length and output is nonlinear. The second turbine's blade is 2.07x longer, but the power is 4x higher!

Vestas is a wind turbine manufacturer from Denmark (their turbines are shown in the next photo):
