Google Invites You to Do a Barrel Roll

Star Fox 64 - Do a Barrel RollAre you easily entertained or did you play Star Fox 64 back in ‘97?

If your answer is ‘yes’ to either of the above, it’s time that you head on over to Google.com and type in ‘do a barrel roll’.

What happens next will blow your freaking mind.

That is, if you’re using Chrome or Firefox since the page spins thanks to HTML5 and CSS3.

Google engineers also rigged the search term, “Z or R twice” to perform the same spinning motion, which is what Star Fox 64 gamers were instructed to do in order to “do a barrel roll” by Peppy, the space pilot rabbit.

Have you done a barrel roll lately?
