Most people can do none of that. I guess they willfully do not want to know the basics, like how to mount a tyre to a simple wheel. I have heard people say, "I pay others to mount my tyres." They found nothing wrong with willfully not knowing how to mount a tyre, nor even how to change to the spare tyre and wheel when a driving tyre gets damaged. I recently met a chap that had no idea how to turn the headlamps on his daily driven automobile. There is nothing worse than willful ignorance.

      Africa did come up with the wheel. It is the cradle of humanity. The species originates in Africa, likely Ethiopia. The wheel is one of the earliest inventions. Humans were still in Africa back then.

    In the beginning of the video I saw a helicopter flying like a plane, that was the most funny part.

      Its actually a gyrocopter not a helicopter. The difference is that the rotor on a helicopter is directly driven by the engine whereas on a gyro it's driven purely by the airflow.

    That first one is quite impressive! As are many of these others that half work- a bit more work on some of them and they could be legitimate flying machines- not sure how safe, I'm considering legitimate pretty much: does it get off the ground more than a few Yards? and is the landing controlled? It's always neat to see People chasing their dreams, even if it doesn't work out. These Pilots have steel ball-bearings! Fallout: Africa ;)

At least these civilians are mounting an engine, making a frame, getting things to work together. It flight aspect is not there. But, they may be able to get there. Most civilians do not even know what to do if the engine in their automobile losses compression on a cylinder.
