Nat Geo's

       Hello friends! The National Geographic Channel has picked up a new television series about backyard inventors called “Mad Scientists”. The series features several inventors and their greatest creations. Each inventor will have their own 30 minute episode in which the host challenges them to modify their creation into something it wasn’t originally built to do.
       I am happy to report that the
GRV-2 jet bike is featured in one of these episodes called the “Jet Powered Office Chair” ;0) I was lucky enough to be chosen to tape the very first episode back in February of 2011 and I really had a lot of fun with the host (John Bowler) while building our project :0) It was such a surreal dream being on camera as I am a big fan of build shows like “Monster Garage”, “Overhaulin’ ” and “American Chopper” :0)

       It is super exciting to know that even the noncommercial backyard builder can get some recognition and I am super honored to be part of this series!!! Check out the 2011 fall preview of “Mad Scientists” below!!!

       The series originally premiered in October of 2011 on the National Geographic Channel including my “Jet Powered Office Chair” episode which first aired on November 23rd 2011 as the season finale. Check out these clips of the episode below!!!

       I really appreciate everyone’s support especially my fellow inventors who recommended me to the production company when they were searching for inventors. I am really honored to represent the numerous turbine builders and backyard fabricators out there, this one’s for you guys!!!!
