There’s Just One Thing…

Well, this is the Borderline Sociopathic Blog for Boys, after all. We applaud all efforts to add jet engines to anything. Your mom’s blender, your Flexible Flyer, your dog, if he’s up for it. However, there’s just one problem here. OK, OK, this gentlemen has successfully built, mounted, and tested jet engines on the back of his electric go kart. So far, so good. They even work, and make the car go faster, which is a bonus with such efforts. He’d get credit from us even if they didn’t get the car to go any faster, just made it look cooler. Or if they were simply there to quick-heat hot dogs or shish kebabs when you’re pulled over for eight hours to recharge. Everything is right up our alley, as they say. There’s just one thing: I dare you to freeze the video at nine seconds, and look at the way this guy holds a pen. I’m sorry but that’s where I bail out. No one who holds a pen like that is to be trusted with jet propulsion calculations.

  1. The cause appears to be a missing digit (see for example 3:26). So I applaud his determination to advance science – one borderline boyhood experiment at a time.

  2. Hi R. Davis- We kid around here at the BSBFB, but we’re with you (and Warped Perception, the man who makes the video) all the way: We love borderline boyhood experiments and the guys who make them.
