That guy has a bunch of different rocket/jet powered vehicles on YouTube. He's quite the inventor and crazy daredevil who has obviously never attended a single elf 'n' safety class in his life!

With the sled in the video I was concerned that the residual heat from the pipes was going to melt the lake ice when he came to a stop at the end. I envisaged the entire contraption going to the bottom in a giant cloud of steam leaving a sled shaped hole in the ice like in a Tom & Jerry or Roadrunner cartoon! :worried: 8)
