Futile Fruit Vessels

The Starting Electronics Radio Controlled Watermellon is Purposeless

The Starting Electronics Radio Controlled Watermelon device is largely futile as few have a need for mobile fruit. The contraption is nonetheless entertaining, displaying an exercise in science that has little regard for practicality or research.

This edible airplane propeller is made of durable material and hollowed out green and purple flesh. The vessel is set off across a raised outdoor pool in the clips, floating throughout in extended rounds.

The whole gadget eventually capsized and set off in flames, burning the almost humorous buoyant piece of equipment. With over 24,000 views already amassed on Youtube, the concept is quickly becoming a viral online sensation, if not for its purposeless undertones, then for its delectable elements.
