Netflix Manly Movie Night: Flyboys
If you are like me, and you enjoy a good GUY flick… but are also a cheapskate and enjoy netflix… than you’ll appreciate our Netflix Manly Movie Night features.
Flyboys stars James Franco as a country boy who enlisted with France to fly a fighter plane during World War I.
The movie isn’t certainly not Oscar winning material… but does it need to be? With lots of visually intriguing aerial battles, a bit of romance (enough that your wife or girlfriend wouldn’t mind watching it with you.) It’s also got a pet lion, and some fantastic characters, and a few tear jerking moments.
It also sparked my interest in WWI. I know very little about the Great War, as it’s the Second Great War that gets a lot of “glory” … however, there is a lot of heroism and tragedy in the history of WWI. I’m looking forward to delving a little more into history.

Fight off the Zombie Hordes with DIY Weapons
There are a handful of us in this world that have an uneasy feeling about the future.
Some of you call us crazy.
Some of you call us preppers.
I prefer to be called resourceful and prepared.
So… JUST IN CASE you ever need to defend yourself against a zombie horde, or raiders coming to steal your daughter’s and your food…

Peel an apple like a man…
Because… power tools.
Chef Jasper van Ramshorst has figured out the best way to peel an apple is to plug it into a power drill.
This is how it makes me feel.
Turn a Washing Machine Drum Into a Fire Pit
As the weather starts to turn, it’s time to emerge from your home-based hibernation and experience the outdoors again. Nothing beats cracking a beer outside with just the heat from a fire on a cool night. Of course, buying a fire pit will easily run you $100+ depending on […]
NYC Freedom Tower B.A.S.E. Jump (Pardon the language)
OK. Pardon the language in this video..

Jumping off buildings in the city? Well.. I’ll let you decide which is which….

Putin Is Reviving a Stalinist Fitness Program to Whip Russians Into Shape
Vladimir Putin wants to improve the physical fitness of Russians of all ages, and to achieve that he has turned to the era of brutal dictator Joseph Stalin for inspiration.
On Monday, he announced that a Stalinist fitness program from the 1930s, called “Ready for Labor and Defense,” will be revived and funded by leftover cash from the Sochi Winter Olympics.

Vlad is the manliest of manly… or at least – that’s definitely what his Ministry of the Press would like to convey. I do not like Stalin, and I don’t particularly like Putin… I also don’t like mandated government fitness programs… however… I think the generation of strong men that this program raises up will be much stronger then Michelle Obama’s protege’s. What say you?
This video left me speechless… A young boy honors his dad.
PS. Real men aren’t afraid to cry a little.
One Man + Two Guitar Necks = Best Coldplay Cover Ever
I got to see Mark Kroos play live at Open Arms Community Church a couple years ago.
He was fantastically talented – and I’m a huge fan.
I’m a huge fan of Coldplay, and a huge fan of the song Yellow – so I love the complexity of this arrangement played on one instrument.
You’ll see a lot more from Mark Kroos on Manlihood.com in the future – mostly because we think that anyone that can pay two guitar necks at the same time is very manly!
