I'm Going To Launch Myself Into The Air Using 350 Model Rocket Engines

Hope you try it out with a bag of potatoes first, if this thing isn't balanced, you could hurt yourself.

Don't forget your safety helmet , young man

Good luck!

Make sure you come back here and post the video. Sounds like something that jackass guy would do. Funny as long as you don't get hurt.

Stay safe

Let's just say for the sake of argument your planned flight is successful. Do you have a landing plan? A 50 foot fall can kill you. You might want to think this out.

Are you one of my sons? If you are, don't forget what happened after the garage roof/trampoline incident.

America's return to space

"Swing l-o-w sweet char-I-ot coming forth to carry me home...oh
swing lo-w sweet char-I-ot........"

You should realize that in order to get uniformed lift-off, all the rocket engines need to ignite at the same time.
Godspeed

OP Have you ever heard of the Darwin awards...........look it up

Shush, i really need to see this

GO OP

GO OP

FOR SCIENCE

Godspeed young Astro nut the sky is the limit and reach for the stars

I recommend escape rockets on your lawn chair.
Just in case.

Don't forget to take a warm jacket and put on your long undies it's cold in orbit

if you coordinate 350 of the engines 8 lbs / sec for six seconds you may get 200 pounds 80 feet up.

Land in a lake

Get "f" class engines... Go big or go home

The title of the thread made me

We need a live broadcast of this.

I'd pay to watch that. What state are you in?

Pls film it

Dude....you may want to watch that old Mythbusters episode first. Just to get some pointers before lift off.

Balancing a rocket so it doesn't become unstable is very hard, a man on a chair on top of plywood is going to be very unbalanced no matter how hard you try. The second you start to lift, the whole platform will flip over to the heaviest side and body slam you with all it's thrust into the ground. Then maybe the rocket motors still thrusting will break loose or be aimed at you and burn you to death.


This is a very very bad idea if you are indeed serious. Please do not do this. You will be horribly injured as well as any bystanders.

You're going to either die or be severely burned. Trust me. I have built and launched hundreds of rockets. You're going to die.

YEP go the sack of potatoes first then you can be eating french fries while you contemplate your next move.

Not the Wan Hu rocket chair, but close.

uh...no youre not...idiots that dont understand physics just end up going to the emergency room....so...hopefully if you do goto the emergency room i am not your doctor...pray im not

I predict some nasty third degree burns are in your future.

Next time make a big batch of your own rocket candy and make one really big one. Stuff the rocket candy into a big Sonotube.
