    In this video there is a challenge to build a man powered helicopter that reaches ten feet and sustains that height for 1 minute and without drifting out of a 10 meter box. They haven't accomplished it yet, but its still fascinating.

  4. If peoplekeeping thinking and inventing new ideas, our future will be bright. I would by that bicycle for $20.00 dollars because a real bicycle is worth maybe like $100-$300 dollars. I will save alot of mony. A new invention that came out in 2012 that I found that was interesting is a drug that can gain your memory back. I think it is cool and interesting. Many people will not forget about their memories and keep them forever.This great invention could present great benefits for our ageing population. A pill version is in the works for human use, but the same drug will not be released for a couple more years.

  5. basically, once you've got the motivation in you, nothing can stop you from accomplishing anything. That's the same thing in JROTC. you need the motivation and dedication to accomplish anything.

    I couldn't find a site related to this blog. however, i do believe that this person had their mind set on the invention and so he pursued his dream through hard work.

  6. I really like this innovation. I've always believed that if everyone walked or biked to their destination, it would not pollute the air as much, less gas= less $, and more interaction between the people and the community. But again, there are many things that may not be done as conveniently without vehicles.
    This bicycle is made out of cardboard so it would benefit the environment. The invention of this bicycle is amazing itself. It can withstand weight and can transport a person to its destination.

    This is a short video of a new body armor made for females in the military. With this new invention, it would benefit the females, the military, and overall, it would benefit the world.
    With this new body armor, the females would feel comfortable while wearing it, which would benefit their efficiency in the field.

    This is a series called the what if machine its about on how we can use different types of jetpacks in the future instead of using oil or something we can use water which will be very cool because I doubt we will ever run out of water. This is one of my favorite series. Enjoy !

  12. Wow I am impressed, completely blown away by this idea. This guy took an idea and made it happen. Like he said, "one of my favorite things about it is that it's made out of card board." Imagining how many card board boxes I've opened since I started working at the movie theater upsets me because everyone of those boxes could have went into making one of these. He can even open his own cardboard bike shop and the card board is free. Just genius!!!!He is helping the planet one bike at a time!!!!!
