Did it really fly or was it a forcefully thrown projectile?

[@naughtyskweet6]

Yeah definitely a paper spear

[@spawnpoint111]

You dont know what the difference is between a glider and a dart..?

[@RellenMcDee]

No paper airplanes fly under their own power....

[@CounterfeitMcCoy]

Had to click through to youtube just to downvote. No clip of the paper plane? Just some rando anchor's comments...

[@mikayel18ify]

Cool ! Now try to make an airplane that doesn't crash every month

Jayson merrill: hold my beer

[@JohnJaneson2449]

This is no joke. The designs will be put into bomber drones in the near future.

[@velqt]

No they won't. They have almost no lift because they're designed to have no drag

John Collins says to hold his beer

I won a paper airplane at my school in 1989. Yes, old

[@JohnJaneson2449]

Do you remember how far it went?

[@djgreenhornet2892]

@@JohnJaneson2449 I’m not sure. It’s been so long. I remember the room was long. I flew it 2 times. The airplane flew straight and hit the wall both times.

[@many4173]

Actually a dart with paper winglets

X-15

[@naughtyskweet6]

​@@jelletje8 that's a rocket

[@1.4142]

Now get a professional javelin thrower to throw it

[@steffanjansenvanvuuren3257]

But mine flew 107 meters. That is my personal paper airplane record.
Also took a lot of tries, as the paper plane is useless on the first hard landing, and I have to start folding all over.
My paper airplane has a 3D airfoil.
Mine should also be a record?
That is the thing in this world, there are so many unknown record holders.

What are you waiting for? Grab a camera next time 🤷🏼‍♂️

Rent one big and closed local and call the scouts from guiness. May you broke the world record!
