flytilbroke Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 By pure chance I looked at "The Gadget Show". One of our famous personalities made an appearance as Turbine Mechanic. Quite interesting new use for Turbines, well worth a look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom T Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 I saw it, i've just been talking to him on Facebook. He told me that the start motor (i think) was slipping towards the end, but i thought that it was a fantastic job and a huge congratulations to Ali and Jason for pulling of an amazing stunt!

Bob Moore Posted October 11, 2011 Share Posted October 11, 2011 If you are talking about the big skateboard record attempt with jet engines on the back, I thought the driver had very large testicles. I wouldn't want to be driving a cart, legs first at over a 100 mph and going off the track towards sheds and bumpy grass. Good on him for a new Guinness World record. I didn't recognise the jet engineer celb though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Codename-John Posted October 12, 2011 Share Posted October 12, 2011 I reckon the big Als Hobbies stickers under the turbines displayed for the country to see constitutes more than just a mentioning Tom, lol free T.V. advertising anybody, they did mention his name when he was starting them up tho too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom T Posted October 12, 2011 Share Posted October 12, 2011 I meant in the world record, the link from Bob above. I knew he got advertisement from the show but not credit after.
