Maybe this is old news, but it'll be interesting if one day the police here will be hovering over traffic. Seems pretty dangerous with those exposed blades. It's all fun, until the first decapitation.

no harness is interesting as well, given the pilot is sitting between four blenders

You can feed the poor with this machine also. That is when he falls into the blades over the hood

With all due respect to the LEO’s, there is a “pig’s flying” joke here somewhere

Just in case you wanted a reference to Nick's "due respect";

"Unlike so many other nicknames for the police, such as cops and the fuzz, this particular term has a relatively well known origin. You see, starting around the sixteenth century “pig” began being used in English as a derogatory term for people, whether police or not, as it still sometimes is used today.

It took about three more centuries, but this particular insult inevitably became a popular nickname for oft-insulted police officers, with the first documented reference to this being in the Dictionary of Buckish Slang, University Wit and Pickpocket Eloquence, published in London in 1811.

In it, the pertinent line in question is: “The pigs frisked my panney, and nailed my screws.” Meaning: “The officers searched my house, and seized my picklocks.” "
