French company #Seabike has developed a swimming device that uses your own leg power to accelerate you through the water at superhuman speeds.
This crank-driven pusher prop looks a bit like an #underwater#unicycle...
The idea is simple enough; you extend the Seabike's pole to the appropriate length, then strap it to your waist with a belt. Then you find the pedals with your feet, and start turning the crank, with the waist strap to push against. https://newatlas.com/marine/seabike-swimming-propeller/
I love the optimism of the Seattle driver who just shouted, as they honked and sped past, that I should "get in the bike lane" on a road with no bike lane🫠
I want to live in the world they live in where bike lanes are everywhere🤩
