unstable, hard to maneuver and covering part of frontal view. completely fucking idiotic :)
oh, and imagine the wheel getting stuck somewhere abruptly, but engine still going.

It's fun to think about, isn't it?

I should expect humans would still want to build something this inefficient. He had to slow down and use legs to turn, oh and what an absolutely stunning crash (possibly the upside of a monowheel). But yeah, somewhat pleasant to imagination (for me at least), like, I would enhance stability, maneuverability and view a little by putting the engine with saddle at a slight angle to the wheel, so when you looked at it from the front it would be a narrow V. Would have to be well balanced. The wheel's rim is still blocking part of view then, the only thing for that would be installing a camera somewhere around the headlight and transmitting the picture to the helmet. Completely fucking inefficient, but I was just having fun with thoughts.

At least you didn't have to spend an untold number of man hours building one and crash it to figure it out unlike the guy in the video (:

Not sure if it's the analytic thought that allows for some laziness, or inordinate laziness that empowers the analytic thought.

hmm. I think it helps us make choices to where to better spend our time. What we don't learn from observation, we learn from experience (:
