This is a video from RED SIDE visualizing and comparing the speeds of various aircraft, beginning with incredibly slow planes like the Wright Flyer (30MPH) and ending with modern jets like the SR-71 Blackbird (2,500MPH). And to think the Wright Flyer first took to the sky only 120 years ago.

This is another video of Robert ‘Crazy Rocketman’ Maddox (previously), this time testing his new ‘steampunk’ jet powered bicycle. Man — this Rocketman guy clearly knows how to have a good time. And by have a good time I mean die in a rocket powered accident at any moment. Live
This is a video of Robert “Rocketman” Maddox (who you may recall from his 90MPH jet-powered go-kart or rocket-powered skateboard) taking his latest deathtrap out for a test spin. ‘The Dragon’ (which doesn’t have brakes or a seatbelt yet, but why would that stop a Rocketman?) is powered by a
