Best example of an amphibious that I've seen. They claim 125 mph on land and 60 on water, though they don't give evidence of those claims in the video. Room for some toys too!

Meh.

How lame is it to just put in, float around about 100 yards out, then motor back to land?

Wow- stuff pops open with hydraulics, wow.



I'm more curious about those bikes.

The bikes are cheap knock offs of a Klein design. It was an OK design by Klein back in the 90's. The knock offs... Not so much. By today's standards the Klein design is not very good.
