Wannabe Indian pilot turns his car into a helicopter (sort of)


An Indian man has converted his car into a very realistic helicopter with moving rotor blades and an impressive cockpit.

Mithilesh Kumar's creation can't actually fly but it certainly turns heads on the streets of Chapra in Bihar state.

The 23-year-old had always dreamed of training to become a pilot but when financial constraints forced him to abandon that ambition he decided to work on the chopper car.

He's spent around 700,000 rupees (9,800 USD) on the vehicle so far but it recouping some of that money by hiring it out for weddings.
