Hyundai's Flying Car Flies For an Audience

garymortimer writes "Not many garages would work with Hyundai's hexadecagon. Showcasing at the 2013 IDEAs festival, the manned 16 rotored multirotor looks rather dodgy! Well done to them though for making it fly." It's just one of many crazy looking ideas in this video.

Man was not meant to fly in a car.

The only truly flying animals are turtles. Turtles soar gracefully and have super multidirectional turbothrusters with hover capability. Birds are just kludges combining parts of slugs, fish, and squirrels, and they are graceless and inoperable, compared to the almighty turtles. Needless to say, man, which a species of Dog, does not know how to fly without the aid of turtle, so this is just another episode of Hyundai Hubris. Things would be better after a revolutionary reunification of Korea that sweeps out the parasitical chaebol like Hyundai and its phony "flying cars"! DEFEND NORTH KOREA!!!!!

I think you mean "Eggcellent" in regards to the man driving an egg with a clear shell helmet.

Thanks. I got about 90 seconds into the video and saw absolutely nothing of interest.

My standard advice for anybody wanting to show me a video: edit it to half its length. Sight unseen, knowing nothing about you, I know that you're going to be too attached to the sound of your own authorial voice. It sounds like in this case that advice needed to be given 3 or 4 times.
