Rocket launch on road.....KRK rokit8 will be given away soon!

0:05 Go on Rich, what's your name?

Alright, what's your name? I didn't realise. Go on Rich, what's your name? What's your name? My name's Rich. Yeah. I used to work for NASA. Yeah. And these boys are going to be sorry. My name's Jeff. And that is the captain. I used to work for Nasty. And I'm going to beat everybody back here. Simple as that. Okay, right. Sorry about that mate, because you can beat that. Right, these are our rockets, that's mine. That's Rich's from NASA. And that's Jess from Nasty. And we are going to make some aeroplanes with these, and the winner gets a beer. Right, watch your space, because rockets, here we come. So Captain, how long have you been making rockets for mate? This is the first one actually, but I'm an expert. Yeah, so where do you get your expertise from? Who have you been studying in the rocket industry? Bullshit and bravado mainly, and make it up as you go along and black it.

Okay, right, so you see we're using very good quality materials here. You'll notice the lack of corrugated cardboard. This isn't corrugated. No, that's right. This is just single skin. Is that for better stability and more maneuverability around the air? I'd say so, but I would be guessing. I have to admit, I'm a bit of a newbie at this. Alright, well you've got a lot to beat here because we've got this guy from NASA. Can you just tell me a little bit about the construction of your rocket? What's it going to look like? That's the cone of my rocket there. Okay, you see? Yeah, yeah. A bit like that. This is going to be the tail of my rocket there. Good luck! These, of course, being rocket planes, they're going to be fired not in the sky, they're going to be fired down the road. There you go, down there.

Hey there Rich. Just to let you know guys, that gentleman over there is using some very thin cardboard. I've got proper good quality pick stuff. You'll notice that this is sort of corrugated for such giving more stability and more angle. You know, angle is of course will determine the angle of the projection of... The erection. Hey, come on now. I've got my own glider. Can you just lift that up please, Jeff, sir? No, no, the wings, that's a glider. I mean, how are we doing over there? Just made a bit of a pineapple at the minute. Okay, and you'll notice my wings here, very short, sleek, straight to the point. Of course, the whole idea behind my particular plane is for speed and distance as opposed to...

Subtitles by the Amara.org community Still yours over there, that one, Jeff. It is indeed. Is this the new model? No, it's the same one. No, hold on a minute. No, that's different. That's different. You just left it at the other side. Oh, I got you. That's not going to take off. Mine's going to be in stealth mode, isn't it? Right, OK. Here we go.

3:50 I like the little winglets there on the top

I like the little winglets there on the top. Very nice. Six million dollar man. Nice. Eat your heart out. Okay. Did you get him in the eye? Look at it. He's got a nipple on it. What kind of tactics is that? Yeah, well, I mean, come on. This is ruthless stuff now. Check that out, ladies and gentlemen. Look at that. I mean, would you like to be in front of that? No, I don't think so. Don't think so. Look at that. Fully functional working. That is going to just go like shovel off a... I nearly said shut off a shovel then, shouldn't really say that. Hey, look at that. Tail's a little bit wonky, I need to straighten that, otherwise we could have it going in the wrong direction. These are going down the road, so if there are any vehicles going the other way, I suggest you maybe, I don't know, detour or... How are you doing there? Mine's a bit balanced to one side. Take a bit of weight off there. Well, I hope they'll actually leave the... Oh dear.

I don't know, don't think he's doing any biplane. There's a lot of weight going on there guys, I'm just thinking, a lot of weight there. Okay. Yeah, but I've got science on my side. What's that? Yeah, weird science. It's all about where you put your finger. Yeah. If I put my finger there. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And it's all about where you put your finger. You put your finger there, it's not going to burn as much as if you put your finger there. Yeah. Fair enough. The only trouble is, it's going to burn the tailplane off. We're going to be taking these outside for their maiden and last flights. I'm going to call mine Rocket 8 after the speakers I'm going to be giving away. Mine's called Rocket 88 after the tune Rocket 88.

6:23 Do you want to change your minds?

Don't be late, we've got a rocket 88. Look at that. See you're right brothers, they had something going. Yeah. Maybe you should put more weight at the bottom or something. I think you should just put on more weight and not do it. No, you watch this, it'll be perfect. It's not about aerodynamics, it's about dero-i-namics. It's rolling. Absolutely. It's rolling. Right, do you want to change your minds? No. Right, okay, let's go and check them out. Just to let you know, ladies and gentlemen, it's not a good idea at all to mess around with matches. Having to launch them off, so... God, mine's already trying to go on its own. There's no holding it. Right, here we go, ladies and gentlemen, we're going to launch them along the road here.

There we go, we're going to go down that direction and hopefully they won't land in someone else's backyard but we'll soon find out. Right then, okay, just going to wait for the competitor, there's two ready. I mean come on look at that, that is just genius, that is genius, absolute genius. That ladies and gentlemen is the launch pad, there you go, that is the launch pad and here is the road. Jeff are you getting everything ready there mate? Yeah. Don't drop your, don't worry, oh you're alright, it's okay, he's dropping bits. I think your thing's falling apart already. Right, launch pad there and we're good to go. What's the weather like? Are we alright for the weather humidity? It's clear, humidity's good. Wind? Wind? Yes, I've got wind and I've got humidity. What sort of direction is the wind going? We need, you know, we've got to make sure it's going the right... I'd keep upwind of me at the moment. There's no wind. Right, here we go. Okay, Rich.

8:39 Could be saving the best one till last here

Just, how are you feeling at the moment now? Are you feeling quite excited? Nervous. Nervous? Okay, here we are then, Jim. Right, keep out of the way! Pussy in the road! Crikey. The last thing we want is a pussy all over the place. God, I can't even light the damn thing. Oh, it's going! Alright! Five! Four! Three! Two! One! Oh, come on! Oh, take off! We, uh... Could be saving the best one till last here. Right, we'll get it. Try and light it. Yeah, go for it. Yeah, this side, Jeff. Hold on, let's pull it back a little bit. Shit, it's not car comers. Oh, here we go! Five! Four! Three! Two! One! Three! Five! Four! Come on! Yes! Come on! Get in there! Oh, but hold on! Hold on! No, but hold on! Not yet! Nice! Mine's slightly... And here we go, ladies and gentlemen. So, Jeff, how are you feeling at the moment? Are you feeling pretty good? I'm feeling like it's not going to fly at all. It's going to crash and burn. You know, are you concerned about trajectory, you know? I'm just concerned more about everybody's health, really. Sure. Pilot. Pilot. Off we go. Here we go.

Shit, I think there's a car coming, quick. Is the car coming? Hold on, hold on. Is there a car coming? Hold on, hold on, hold on. Is he coming? Right, five, four, three, two, one, five, three.

I don't recommend you do this at home.
