An uncle of mine had an Isetta back in the day. It was a cute little micro car that sounded like a asthmatic motorcycle. Car and Driver magazine said the Amphicar was as bad a boat as it was a car. Btw, LBJ had one.
It's simple, it works the same way as any other vehicle, it's just double wide. Just imagine, there's a bus that's 3 lanes wide, and has room for vehicles to travel underneath like it's a tunnel. It has traffic signals, so people know when it's safe to exit through the front.
"Bubble cars" like the Isetta served 2 functions; They were the response to the 1957 post-Suez oil shortage They helped to get German engineering kick-started after WW2.
Speaking of cars, today I saw a mosquito inside my moving car flying normally like it does in the room. I mean why didn't the mosquito move backwards? Strange how it can keep up it's speed with the car's speed. I seriously need answers- my intp mind lmao.

Americans, please, I beg you, learn how to pronounce the _very_ easily pronounced French car marques 🙏 The easiest way is to listen to a French speaker saying it (you're going to find it on UA-cam, I am certain of it!). Of all the criminal pronunciations, Peugeot is the worst I've heard: it isn't _pew-jot_ or _pew-go_ (or any number of combinations). Brits get it wrong too, but we're definitely closer, even those who don't speak French. Those who do cringe on hearing an easy word massacred in such a manner (by whomsoever is bolloxing it up at that moment.) The IPA French pronunciation is "pøʒo" - the nearest I can give you in English is Pur (as in a cat's purr but without the r being pronounced) -ʒ is like a J or SZ (not zj as in jazz but like the hard SZ as in "mea-s-ure") which is followed by the tiniest E sound softening the ʒ's end but barely pronounced. The last O is as in Oh (no H pronounced). So "purszeo" (very, _very_ loosely!!!! But a lot closer than was said in the video!)
1:22 i like how people is making so realistic games now that you can’t even see if it’s real life or a game, like i should not see if it was a game at first.
I remember seeing the long white limo on some show back in the 1980's. I think it was Ripley's Believe It Or Not. But here they show two different ones. The one at 13:31 is a lot shorter than the one at 31:33. He must have lengthened it or made two of them. Looks like someone actually restored that thing.
Looks like the first one was sagging in the middle... Adding the new length,,, increased length as well as adding more stability throughout the whole build... ALSO... Maintaining the Title of Worlds Longest Limo for Years to come...
The company TVR, (originally named after the British founder TreVoR Wilkinson), was a Blackpool based company in Lancashire England, when the Cerbera Speed 12 was built, The abbreviation TVR stems from the name of the company's owner Trevor Wilkinson, his first garage sporting the letters T, V and R. The history of TVR can be divided into several eras, each of which is associated with the company's owner at the start of that period: 1946-1965, founder Trevor Wilkinson, who left in 1962. The TVR Cerbera Speed 12, originally known as the Project 7/12, is a high performance sports car designed by TVR in 1997. Based on the TVR Cerbera, the vehicle was intended to be both the world's highest performance road car and the basis for a GT1 class endurance racer.
2:53 "For starters, the FV2 is able to change colours, depending on the mood of the driver. If you're struggling to think of any way _that_ could ever be useful..." - as a matter of fact, it *could* indeed be useful: it would warn other drivers to stay away from a car with an angry driver, possibly reducing road rage incidents/accidents.
The roach coach was also a model back then , as well the pink panther mobile, there is one that looks like a indy car called the devilfish, the red baron was shaped like a german war helmet. There were several other interesting show only cars that had fun designs, almost like real life hotwheels.
I loved my 1966 Blue w/white top Amphicar. My dad gave it to me for Christmas in 1965. I drove it from San Antonio, Texas to San Francisco. I could write a book on all the crazy things that happened along the way. Not cause of car problems, but coz of all the peeps wanting demonstrations at gas stations and the like. The cops would also radio ahead to their friends and they, in-turn, would pull me over for a demo. While living in the bay area, everyday was an adventure as I drove it to work. Example: some drivers would pull up behind me at a stop light. Then as they realized something was different, you could see them in your rear view mirror saying, WTF? Seeing that, I immediately put the water gear on as I took off,. The propellers would be turning and those behind would be dying of laughter. I went in fresh water lakes all the time. Never had to service it after I did so. Just did regular maintenance. Once I had to tow a disabled boat (That had been harassing us) to shore on Lake Merritt in Oakland. What a riot😆 My girlfriend in high school, drove an Isetta to school. On the weekends, we go to drive-ins. Great, except as we sat in the car, we were constantly pranked. A group of friends would see us and lift the car up in the air, placing us on the side walk or some difficult place to get the car out of🤣
I used to see someone with an amphicar driving on the road near a river when I was going to the doctor's office as a child. Once in a great while I'd see one actually in the river, tootling along with obviously happy people inside.
Amphicar! A friend had one, and i got to watch (from inside it) startled or shocked stares as we drove down the beachfront and into a lake. They tended to rust (yes! a floating car) and were far more a novelty than practical.
Some of the best-looking cars were made in the late 40's and 50's. The Opel H looks great, so does the Mercedes. However, I'd take that XL Bug any day! It looks just gorgeous and I'm sure a V6 or even V8 is under the hood.
Klein wasn't the first to make flying cars that relied on wings. Other inventors used detachable aviation packages. The idea being you'd drive your car to the airport, mount the plane portion to it, then fly your car to your destination, uncouple the wings, and drive off.

5:28 The TVR looks like a Dodge Viper. I think the Viper hit showrooms in 1992 so if the TVR came out in 1998 one would have to assume the TVR was modeled after the Viper.
That's the real reason it didn't release the Dodge Viper was designed by Shelby himself to be the next Cobra and there was no way they were gonna let someone basically make a clone with a few performance upgrades and sale it for cheaper ... Companies get away with this kind of stuff all the time but you can't copy the entire look of a supercar and not expect a lawsuit
Three cars you left out were the Aptera, the Transition and the Terrafugia FX. That latter 2 cars were flying cars by Geely that were supposed to go into production but never did. The Terrafugia was planned to be a vertical take-off flying car. The Transition was created by 6 MIT students and was later bought by Geely, one of the largest Chinese car companies.
I like the AVTR. Looks very good. I remember seeing an Isetta back in the early 60s when I was walking to school. And I wanted an Amphicar, but the old man said no. What a killjoy!
I remember the TVR Speed 12 from car magazines at the time, and the video game world. I've seen a few Amphicars in person in northern Michigan. Great video. Thank you.
I'm really surprised you didn't include The Tucker. Created by Preston Tucker after WWII it was innovative in that it debuted a lot of the mechanics and safety standards we use in todays cars. Some include disc brakes, padded dashboard, roll bar in the roof, chassis that protected occupants from side impacts, laminated windshield, self-sealing tubeless tires and its unique third headlight that turned with the steering wheel. Sadly the big 3 quickly sabotaged him and pushed him out of business. I think there is something like 20 Tuckers still around today. There was even a movie made about Preston and his revolutionary car.
I recently asked a neural network on my channel to draw what cars will be in the future. The result was simply amazing. It's just some kind of space. I have never seen such incredible cars.
Oh this was highly fascinating! I really loved the Huge Bug, especially how much of a fabulous father and son project that it was 😍 The last one was just weird!! 🤣

It was about 60 feet long the first attempt, the creator then lengthened it to 100 feet. The current owner restored it and added an extra 1/2 inch.
I think it was also shown on the 90's Ripley's Believe It Or Not hosted by Dean Cain

I would love the Aviator and the robot head car. I think if this was in every car, maybe road rage would not be as bad.
You would have a lot of broken robots though.
If you're 10 years old or younger, then yea robot head will look amazing! .. why don't you just go back to kid's sandbox and play with toy cars lol
Definitely. You would just end up yelling at the robot head instead. Lol.
