They say GOD created the Earth in seven days. Actually, I did it in 15 minutes.

lol, what a joke of a video. Jupiter most certainly does orbit the Sun, what the hell else is it circling due to gravitational pull? (besides the the super massive blackhole at the center of the Milky Way)

Also to note, all gravitational objects pull on each other, but lets be clear. The video shows Jupiter pulling MASSIVELY against the Sun. That isn't even remotely close. Yes, Jupiter wobbles the Sun, but understand. The Sun contains 99.996% of all the mass in our solar system. That means Jupiter at tops is half of 1 percent of the weight of the Sun. If you weight 200lbs, Jupiter would at tops weight 1lb compared to you. Is it enough for you to feel the pull? Yes. Is it going to throw you completely off balance as depicted in the video. No.

btw, two stars of the exact same mass can (and do!) orbit each other. (read the definition of the word orbit!) Pretty much all orbits are elliptical and not perfectly round.

This is orbiting.

The Jackson K V guitar was not designed nor named for Randy Rhoads . It was named after and designed for Ratt Guitarist Robin "King" Crosby.

The SG in the Gibson SG electric guitar stands for Solid Guitar

The Dean ML body style guitar (Most known for the main guitars Dimebag of Pantera played) the ML Stood for Matthew Lynn...A friend of Dean Zelinksy. Dean Zelinsky was the creator of the Guitar and of Dean Guitars.
