Technology blogs have been circulating a YouTube clip of a man who appears to be going for a ride in a type of aerial vehicle that looks like it is made out of a bunch of parts that would normally be found in a drone. A description of the footage posted by a user named “gasturbine101” on the video-sharing platform claims the monstrosity can “lift” up to 361 pounds, is made up of “54 counter-rotation propellers” and can stay in the air for about 10 minutes.
