  • there are lots of things that are invented way before anyone knows what to do with them.

  • This would be a great system to get things airborne for a glider as long as it had a way to stabilize itself once in air.

  • lol in the beginning. " i can beleive i can fly!" that was the first thing that came into my mind when i saw it

  • LOCUSTS?!? WHERE'S MARCUS FENIX?!?

  • 1-AWESOME 2-i wonder if a clockwork version could be made? like windup or something....

  • Jump Jet Anyone?

  • you should use it to scare the shit out of little girls

  • wonder what happen if somebody rides on that thing and it landed like the grasshopper

  • locust? i think you mean grasshopper

  • too bad if it was built bigger and used in a craft for humans it would probably create too much G forces just from the take off wouldn't it? thats why we have planes and helicopters that take off slowly

    i mean the sudden acceleration straight up against gravity seems too harsh if proportion to something that can support launch us

    but w/e i could be waaaayyyyy off

  • Just imagine that shit jumping in your face.

  • lol its like- wait for it..wait for it..oh, oh ,oh here i-here i go! yes! im free!! ooh la la, the ceiling looks marvelous from this angle!
