I keep coming across videos on You Tube of Chinese backyard engineers who have no understanding of engineering, building their own planes, helicopters, cars, and spaceships. The mind boggles!!

Yes I feel his punishment was a bit harsh.... Poor guy.

On another note.....

We have a fellow here in the states who was only minutes away from launching himself "into space" in his own backyard rocket to prove the earth was flat..

The rocket was handmade in the yard and had a rocket propulsion system

He's a full time Janitor and handyman... Built out of scrap metal

I though he should have been allowed the chance

We here in the states always make people like the Chinese fellow, well appear normal

Your rocket man could have been a candidate for the 'Darwin Award'

Your rocket man could have been a candidate for the 'Darwin Award'

Yes amongst others

Well if he had launched his rocket there is little doubt that the flat earth would have received a rocket sized dent

Come to think of it, in my book of useless Japanese inventions I think there's a motorcycle that used boots instead of tyres. There's also a bike with square wheels
and come to think of it again.. this is a real ars*-kicker
