The (Wet) Dream is Real!
Well, sort of. Germany’s Lars Ramke has come up with a machine that utilizes 140-foot-long hoses that can suck up water from a lake, say, and pump it into a 120-horsepower four-stroke engine. The pilot, so long as he doesn’t fly too far from the water source, can then theoretically fly up to about 50 feet in the air and at nearly 50 MPH. For as long as the water lasts! Or until he has to hit the can, whichever comes first. This video shows you all you need to know about this marvelous creation—and dig the techno-disco soundtrack, too. Now is ze time on Sprockets ven ve fly jetpacks! And for only $128, 000 you can, too!
