Can you imagine a car made out of lego's on the same road as regular cars?
The car, dubbed the Super Awesome Micro Project is made out of 500,000 legos, which includes the engine run by air, four orbital engines, and 256 pistons The Daily Mail reported Thursday.
The mobile can go up to 12 to 18 miles per hour, but Steve Sammartino, and Raul Oaida do not go that fast since the car could blow up.
"(The car is a world-first and is) proof-of-concept of environmentally-friendly equipment," Steve Sammartino a marketer told The Mail. "What really matters in the world now isn't so much the new technology. It's people having access to the technology. It's about people using their imagination to put things together in ways that people haven't thought of before. That's where the real power is."
The project was made possible by 11,200 total euros from forty Australian citizens.
"I think ultimately you get involved with something like this because it's such an awesome idea and good things might flow from it," blogger Trevor Young, who made a contribution told The Mail. Sammartino got in touch with Young after spontaneously sending him a skype request.
"He wanted me to connect him with this astronaut I know because he's interested in rockets," Sammartino told The Mail. "I'm teaching him about business and he's teaching me a bit about physics. It's a really nice mash-up."
The two also launched a miniature size space shuttle created from legos in 2011 that reached 35,000 meters. The shuttle ended up in the snow in Germany, the same company where it was sent off into the atmosphere.
This was after the shuttle blew up because of the strong air pressure that exists when going into space.
The pair's second try was more productive after Raul Oaida, a technology genius applied superglue on the pieces to prevent the creation from splitting apart while going up against 124 mph wind gusts.
