    Man, I thought at first they had a malfunction. It isn't what you'd expect when you see it! That thing is pretty amazing...
    QAnon / GOP Republicans mentally lack the necessary intelligence to even tell a decent lie (Ex: A cabal of Satanic, cannibalistic pedophiles run a global child sex trafficking ring and conspired against former President Dotard dRUMPf during his term in office... Jewish space lasers, etc.). What in the hell makes anyone believe these melon heads can actually govern?

    The rockets provided the lift and the circular spinning provided the stabilization to allow it to go straight up...... very neat! 8)
    Why,driving into a brick wall at 60 miles per hour, would I expect it not to hurt!

    The parachute popping out at the very end was a nice touch.
