In the grand scheme of things, I have been on this Earth for an eyeblink. I was born 30 years ago, which gives me about two and a half decades of useful, retrievable memories. Most of them are pretty normal; some of them are downright weird. All of them pale in comparison with this pile of nutso.

Say hello to the jet-powered, 320-mph school bus.

According to CBS News, what we have here is pretty simple: 42,000 horsepower; 21,000 pounds of thrust; the engine from an F4 fighter; flame paint. Flame paint, people. On a school bus that spits flame. Because, you know, why not?

If it gets better than that, I have no idea how. You wanna see video, right? Of course you do. You have a pulse. Guess what: We're going to give it to you.

Pretty classy shit.

Would be even better if it was a short bus. The shorter wheelbase would probably be unsteerable and exponentially more ill-advised.

I also wonder: 1. where one acquires rocket fuel for an ex-military engine, and 2. how bloody expensive it must be.

Not sure, but we may have to look into this for transporting our Dutch slave children

Flame decals make it go faster.
