Here’s video of a jet powered bicycle that can go 75mph! The first thing you might ask is “why”? Especially when you can just buy a motorcycle. The answer is because the builder of this bike is Robert Maddox, and he builds and fabricates jet powered propulsion engines that run on kerosene. His engines can power up to 1,000 lbs, so he decided to weld one to a bike and make it go up to 75 mph. It seems like it would be one hell of a ride, but as you’ll see in the video – it’s not practical because even though the jet engine is very small – it’s deafening! The guy’s on a modded bicycle and it sounds like you are on the tarmac at the airport! Thanks for the find Gizmodo, the comments on the page I found this indicate that many feel he’s a pre-qualified candidate for the next Darwin Awards!
