In a boat at sea one of the men began to bore a hole in the bottom of the boat. On being remonstrating with, he answered, "I am only boring under my own seat." "Yes," said his companions, "but when the sea rushes in we shall all be drowned with you."

Do this downtown with hoola hools off the sides of buildings and under Main St bridge.

Sundays are pretty dead downtown ad far as traffic is concerned.

That does look pretty awesome. Or "epic" as he said, multiple times in that video haha.

I used to fly the dual blade RC helicopters but due to my skill level it became a little too expensive (each crash would set you back 10-15 in repairs) The drones look way more stable and agile.

The downtown idea is cool, fly them in between all of the buildings, maybe use the sky way as a guide point for some of the route.

I'm sure there's some FAA rule preventing that, but still a cool idea.

haha yeah that looked intense. That's a gut dropping feeling when you see your helicopter crash into something (or in my case plummet to the earth from a few hundred feet up because it lost the signal)

I purchased a more powerful RC helicopter after my first one and that one was so quick I crashed it multiple times because I was too heavy on the throttle. Then I put it back in the box and fired up my playstation!

These videos make me want to get back into it though. It beats playing a video game.
