  4. At any second I expected Boris and Natasha to jump out of the car and say…”Quick…you get Moose and I’ll get squirrel and secret formula.”

  9. Why are you using fans when you can do anti gravity???
    40 mega hertz using a faze pump conjugate mirror is all you need. Safer and quieter. Please don't hurt yourself.

  13. If we wanted to do this we would need atc since we cant just fly when theres also planes flying around which means we would basically need to leave these flying cars at the airport

  18. Ah yes mini helicopters which are already notoriously unstable being gifted to everyone, surely crashes won’t be 10x worse, granted probably 20x less common.

  19. I've been studying this subject for many years. A flying car was always my dream. After many years of research and after creating more than one thousand different configurations, I can assure the world:My cars are the real deal.All defficiencies found in the actual flying cars or e-vtol were sorted out by my research. A flying car ,produced by me could have reached the market approximately twenty years ago,if people realized I was a serious researcher.I am sorry to say that these flying cars in the video can't be compared to my projects.Unfortunately the research is an expensive investment undertaking for just one individual and not a big tech company.But I will keep working on my patents. As soon as I can have a POC investments will come.The Jetsons will envy my flying car and despite the cartoon reference ,I'm serious.

  22. Imagine the accident from the sky left and right having to dock and hide from flying crashing object that might hit you while peacefully walking or just standing on the pavement….or imagine flying cars hitting buildings left and right😮 it is not advisable…not everyone is as disciplined as pilots nope it's a pipe dream to think of the many drunk driver's out there OMG

  25. Trash. Had we kept investing in the electric car of the 1800s we wouldn't need burning gasoline. We would probably have alternative fuels far more efficient than electric over of today. (I believe companies do) but the system is about milking it and making profit over it. Sad but unfortunately true. Blahhh to this materialistic world

  28. Yall know freaking well yall couldnt even invent this. This guy is just like henry ford and everyone thought his ideas were goofy. Yall should stop seeing this is a piece of junk and atleast try to see some potential in this guy. At least hes trying and until i see someone invent a flying car then you cnw start making fun of him again. He has potential and stop being so rude cause you know dang well you cant do what this guy did

  34. You can’t turn helicopters into cars for the same reason we can’t have ultra sonic commercial flights. It’s too loud.
