Via xplanes, this is a Gyrodyne Model GCA-55 :

And, obviously, I need one. See to it.

Is that Adam Savage? Is he time travelling now?

The time machine is the season finale of NEXT season of Mythbusters (that’s how he got back there to sit on that thing). You can watch it if you find the right torrent.

There was a Gyrodyne plant a few miles down the road from my university campus. Never knew what they did. Until now.

I wonder if it runs the way my lawn mower does when it hits a rock…

is that Boojie Boy from de-vo ?

I think the best part of this image is the fact that he’s about to blast off in DRESS SHOES.

how about one of these scaled up to wearable size:
