The Rinspeed "Splash" in an amphibious hydrafoil sports car. It recently set the record for such a vehicle crossing the English Channel by doing it in 3 hours and 14 minutes. It's the strangest thing to see a car drive in and out of the water.

  • they obviously havent figured out how to drive it back on to land without having to pull it back in... at 2:00 minutes you can see them draggin it into shore

  • The Oil companies are trying their best to stop free energy ideas from spreading to common ppl.

    We need to put an end to this corruption ,start generating your own electricity.

    Look for the LT MAGNET MOTOR in youtube video search. Join the Revolution!!

  • ah thank you. I didn't see the other videos before i wrote this coment...

  • If you look at the other videos the foils retract

  • Where is the hydrofoil dealies it had in the crossing sceans, in the first and last sceans it didn't have them. Do they retract or are they put on in the water?

  • Since the last 75' or so were not under the car's own power, I'd say it wasn't a full success. The 4x4 Humdinga would have done it all the way under it's own power.

  • very cool
