what in the heck is the bipod for?

u/ABeerForSasquatch Mod/Pwner 1d ago

Probably to keep the output nozzle elevated off the ground for when he puts it down.

They get pretty hot.

Thats a workout in its self

u/Digital--Sandwich 1d ago

You can see the fuel level going down lol

2

u/rkw1971 1d ago

My first thought. 20 seconds of use and 20% of the fuel already gone.

u/ABeerForSasquatch Mod/Pwner 1d ago

At $30-$40 a gallon, cool becomes costly

2

u/pollywog 1d ago

About $15 a gallon, but yes.

Apple makes leaf blowers now?

u/oneangrywaiter 1d ago

This is why women live longer. Still, as a man, I want one.

u/dizgondwe 1d ago

Never been edged by a leaf blower before.

If I die in this lifetime without jetpacks being as available to the public as a cheeseburger I’m going to leave a nasty review in the afterlife

u/Agreeable-Blood-2774 1d ago

You know it sounds like a great idea? Let’s put a jet engine at the end of a stick!

u/justmarkdying 1d ago

I'm pretty sure if he loses his footing for even a millisecond, that instrument is a goner.

1

u/thecomposedbones 1d ago

Ah I knew Steve Jobs faked his death. Interesting stuff he’s getting up to these days.

u/No-Association-8539 1d ago

I think just get on a skateboard and let it propel you...

u/Morbidly-Obese-Emu 1d ago

Show us that thing catching leaves on fi…blowing leaves.

1

u/NonSequiturSage 1d ago

Finally, a fun replacement for vacuum cleaners.

1

u/MarkedlyMark 22h ago

Until, of course, he falls over and it ends up blowing into his face. That would be the stuff of nightmares.

u/Buttonball 4h ago

This guy just blows.

u/Background_Edge_9427 4m ago

That doesn't look very comfortable, or safe!

u/ThrustTrust 1d ago

Looks useless.

u/diegomaclean 1d ago

Am I supposed to be impressed by this?

u/nesting-doll 1d ago

Because leaf blowers weren’t annoying enough as is. 😂
