This is a video documenting Slow Mo Guys (previously) Gav and Dan’s quest to build a watermelon rocket-powered skateboard. It consists of a watermelon zip-tied to a skateboard with its butt stuffed with sparklers. It does move, but when Dan tries to ride it the board’s MPS (miles per sparkler)

A Chinese Tianlong-3 rocket was recently undergoing a stationary engine test when it became unmoored from the test platform and took to the skies. “But I thought this is what you wanted!” I imagine it thinking to itself.
