    I don’t care how much money I have. I will never ride that helicopter 🚁 looks too dangerous

      It’s a Robinson – they fall like flies. 😂

      You won’t ride in a helicopter, but you’ll ride in a pressurized aluminum tube with wings in very explosive jet fuel you make no sense😂

    If we can make this a safe & efficient technology, it would be very cool! The “Toyota Mirai” has been in production and proven in the automobile sector since 2014, although still only available in California due to the limited number of hydrogen fueling stations. It is very doable…

      Hydrogen is very unstable, so the insurance will be 100 times for your double service

    Now…where do you get cheap, sustainable and green hydrogen?

      The moon. Time to mine the 🌙, and leave the pollution up there.

      “Very doable” is not true. There is a reason why storage and distribution is lacking. Hydrogen is the smallest molecule. It will always leak. The analogy would be trying to store, distribute, and pump gasoline in materials made of window screen.

    What could possibly go wrong?! 🤦‍♂️

    This is just awesome to see, this is kind of use where hydrogen is great solution, can’t wait to see future development and use on bigger helicopters or other aircrafts.

    the fossil fuel corporation is watching

    Pause at 1:17. That says it all.

    Is the hydrogen used here “green”?

  11. @bobnomura2068

    June 7, 2026 at 11:26 pm

    I think hydrogen is better than batteries for aircraft. Storage is the biggest problem.
