Cool,

I'm always impressed that some people have the stones to fly something that's worth more than my car.

Although it looks like he has to wear Women's pants from zellers to afford to do it.....

Pretty sure that should be singular - only one turbine in it.
You can sort of see where the rear bottom of the fuse has been cut away for the outlet, there must be a cheater hole in the bottom for the intake.

Hmmm well if you had enough money I am sure you wouldn't had any problem doing the same (and maybe even wearing less restrictive pants...). The thing I am surprise is the lack of piloting proficiency I see in some of the giant videos on the net - especially poor landing. I would expect perfect landings from these guys.
