Build your own helicopter
It’s true that with enough determination that a person can do almost anything, in the case of Mubarak Muhammad Abdullahi, a 24 years old physics undergraduate from Nigeria, he did just that.
He always wanted his own helicopter, but did not want to spend the couple of million dollars on buying one, so he went down to the local scrap yard and built his own.
This one is made out of scarp metal, the seats out of an old Toyota car and the power comes from a trusty old 133 bhp Honda Civic engine. The dimensions are 12 m (39 ft) long, 5 m wide and 7 m high and believe it or not it does fly, but he has only flown it around seven feet off the ground!
