I love how, at 2:40 the exhaust pipes start to function as a vortex canon, firing vortex rings into the audience.

@myzery3571 So then what you mean is that it was like a generator but it mechanically ran things instead of making electricity? Or am I wrong?

[myzery3571]

@pedalpunk57 It was probably used as a means of stationary power. Back in those days, not everyone (mostly farmers) could not afford electricity to power things so they would use one engine to run everything. Basically this engine would be connected to a conveyor system which would run the washing machine, drill press, corn shucker, etc.

What was something like this used to power in it's day? I'd like to know.

[pedalpunk57]

That is amazing but one can't help but wonder how disastrous would it be if the flywheel just shot right off of there.
