I don't know why, but watching this video makes me happy. It's one of the most awesomest things.

 

[Manabanana]

Wow. He's not kidding. I wonder how they did that.

 

[Baconäger]

I don't get what the big deal is. It looks like a toy lawnmower with a planet attached to the bottom...

 

[olimario]

:lol
Perfect music selection

 

[AntoneM]

that's the coolest thing I've seen in weeks!

and to get it out of the way...
Yes, I lead a boring and depraved life

 

[duderon]

:lol

I got a chuckle out of that.

Just something about a flying lawnmower i guess.

 

[Poody]

it clearly has strings attached. No lawnmover can fly and abide by the laws of bernoulli.

 

[Randam_Hajile]

I haven't had much sleep in the past 48 hours so I don't know if it was really that funny, but watching that made me laugh until I cried.

Reminds me of the GT4 vid. And yes, definitely strings. Probably from a small aircraft like a Cessna, with strings in the front of the mower to perform the tricks.

Still, it's a great vid. Ironic that "Cotton Eye Joe" would make a comeback in the face of the recent pop house thread.

 

[Error Macro]

Ha, yeah that was funny that we were talking about pop house songs, and I listed "Cotton-Eye Joe" in there. That song rules. Anyway, I don't think there were strings attached... It appeared as if there was a modified gas powered r/c airplane attached to the lawn mower. I don't think that would have been possible with strings; the looping and stuff.

Oh yeah, freaking awesome vid. Thanks for the link!

Wow... just... wow.

 

[ConfusingJazz]

Oh great, the lawnmowers are trying to inherit the earth. We'll have to destroy them now before they get too powerful, and start launching lawnmower nukes at us.

 

[Ripclawe]

erk.. If I get one of those, it has to be pre-assembled, no way I can build one of those by myself without turning it into some flying death trap.

 

[=W=]

awesome

 

[heavy liquid]

Wow.

I have to try and make one of these. The only way it could be better is if you could actually cut your lawn with it.

 

[Mermandala]

so much for Ken's New Specs... This is the most perfect thing I'll see this week, assuming today has run out of videos -- no matter what i have to face today i will be able to overcome -- thank you flying lawnmower!!!

 

[Drozmight]

Nice. You sure that's real though? If so... imagine the endless fun. I bet if I flew that around, 911 would be flooded with calls about a possible terrorist attack.
