Hydro Jet Pack

Feast your eyes on the Jetlev R200, a water powered jet pack.

It soars 30 ft. high, can dip into the water, and although it’s attached to a cable, there is a “three dimensional degree of freedom” in the steering.

As of May, the first round of these jet packs will be released for the sticker price of $99,500 a small price to pay to turn yourself part Aquaman, part The Rocketeer.

Miniature Buildings - Street Art by Evol

Evol is a gifted designer and street artist from Berlin. He thought that there were too much boring urban surfaces and he decided to transform these. Just by printing repetitive buildings pattern on paper and pasting these to electricity boxes, small planters or other type of street equipments, Evol gives the city an incredible magic effect. Indeed, Evol turns a random electrical installation into a convincing reproduction of the city skyscrapers. He performs his art within different cities, maybe in your streets.
