On this episode of China Uncensored,
these homemade Chinese vehicles are incredible.
Hi and welcome to China Uncensored.
I'm your host, Chris Chappell.
You know, the Chinese people are overflowing with creativity.
And it's really taking them to new heights.
So let's take a look at some incredible vehicles made by your average Chinese citizen.
Number 10
This farmer from Wuhan made his very own flying saucer.
It's 12 feet wide! Shu Mansheng was able to get it 6 feet off the ground for over 30 seconds.
And though you might think it's one of a kind,
he's actually made four others.
There's no way this UFO is just swamp gas.
Number 9
A former traffic cop built himself his very own electric car.
No steering wheel?
No problem!
It uses foot pedals to navigate.
He said he built it specifically for disabled people and retirees.
And he taught himself how to make it by reading books.
Number 8
Although this may not have quite the shine of Lamborghini,
this 9500-dollar home made version can travel up to 160 mph.
Supposedly.
It was built by a 28 year old mechanic from a farming family who said he fell in love
with cars when he was 16.
I have to say,
this has really inspired me to try my hand at building my own dream vehicle
a death star.
Number 7
In China, you're not allowed to own guns.
But how about a tank?
It was made by a 31 year old retired PLA soldier.
He said he got the idea when his son's toy tank broke and he asked for a new one.
I think his son will be happy with this.
Number: 6
But maybe not as happy as this guy's kid!
It took this farmer 6 months to gather the scrap metal to make this pretty awesome looking
toy Lamborghini.
Wow, that's a million times cooler than the Barbie Jeep Wrangler.
And get this, it can travel almost 40 miles an hour.
Which is probably not safe for a six year old.
Number 5
You really can't get greener than an electric car made out of wood.
Unless you were to literally paint it green.
He should get on that.
48 year old Chinese carpenter Liu Fulong put 3200 dollars into his car.
It can reach top speeds of 30 mph and man,
those missiles were a nice touch.
It's also apparently armored and comes equipped with radar...
for some reason.
Number 4 Do you like cutting edge technology with a
touch of the antique and none of the chic?
Then behold this robot driven rickshaw!
It actually walks,
though that probably means it's not the fastest rickshaw out there.
Number 3
You got to give this guy credit for trying to clean up China.
This DIY street sweeper has 12 rotating brooms attached to the rear!
Though it seems like it would just blow dirt onto parked cars.
Number 2
Believe it or not,
this 38 year old farmer built his own fully functional submarine.
It was designed to harvest sea cucumbers.
He's also built 8 other miniature submarines that can travel at a depth of almost 100 feet
for 10 hours.
Number 1
And finally, a wooden blade helicopter.
Unfortunately, or maybe fortunately,
for 22 year old farmer Wu Zhongyuan,
the local government has forbidden him from flying it.
Which is too bad because he says it can get as high as 2600 feet.
So which would you like to ride in most?
Let me know in the comment section below.
Once again I'm Chris Chappell,
see you next time.
