[Colin Furze] is at it again. This time he’s built a freaking jet-engine powered go kart.
In case you’re not familiar with [Mr. Furze], he’s no stranger to building high-speed vehicles, like the fastest baby stroller in the world. And he’s also got a bit of an obsession with pulse jet engines. He’s even made one out of a toilet roll holder. He was a plumber — but now he’s one of the best mad scientist YouTube creators around. We just hope he doesn’t kick the bucket too soon with one of his extreme projects, because his safety tie probably won’t save him!
This month’s project is no exception — he’s strapping his giant pulse jet engine he used to fart on France onto the frame of a tiny go kart. “As you can see the jet to kart ratio is pretty good”. No kidding — the engine has gotta be 2.5 times as long as the go kart’s frame!
Stick around after the break to see him risk his neck for our own amusement.
The best part of his projects is he also does great build logs to go with them, and they’re always a pleasure to watch. He’s figured out the key to short attention spans with short cuts and high energy music. This makes building absolutely anything, including things as boring as metal brackets fun to watch!
And of course, the test video:
