The precision measurements and machining is absolutely amazing

This is a normal post Yeah, that’s not at all lethal.

This is a normal post Seemed fake until the end. Looks like any thrust is coming from the pressure from the gas can.
Nothing in that construction would survive longer than a minute of actual use. So much of that stuff is held in place with hot glue, which would all be liquid after about 20 seconds. The solder might last 45 seconds, maybe. The fan blades might hold their shape for a whole minute, maybe, but the can housing everything would be shredded. Best case scenario: it fails without any shrapnel and only burns part your house down.

This is a normal post Calling it a jet engine is a stretch
More like an electric fan with flames added.
*edit* My bad - I thought they'd built a motor into it - in that case, hats off!

This is a normal post I was fully expecting them to switch to a shop bought model jet engine housed in the coke can,
or graphical fakery.
