Concept Design for a Radically Different Fire Engine

Fire engines are large by necessity. They’re also often needed in a hurry, and in a traffic-choked city like New York their size becomes a liability that slows them down.

To address that issue, Russian inventor Semenov Dahir Kurmanbievich came up with this crazy concept. (Warning–turn your speakers down or off. The video’s unnecessary music bed is the absolute shittiest song I have ever heard in my life.)

Notice that the firefighters initially appear to be using those Elide Fire Balls, which are pretty neat.

Kurmanbievich also thinks his stork-like concept could be applied to mass transit:
