Flying cat.

What about this for a quad-copter, shows a warped mind.

That is more than slightly disturbing.

I find this equally disturbing as stuffing a pet/animal, so not that much really.

It is simply tasteless. And one way to identify a bad, talentless modern artist is if he feels the need to do tasteless things to generate attention.

The worst part about it, is that it doesn't even fly properly :(

Taste is in the mind of the beholder.

It does fly properly. There are other vids on youtube showing someone who knows how to fly it.

I agree. Talent and true clever with are slowly being substituted with cheap, sensationalist trash. Didn't even click any of the links - why would I? Does it amuse people to hurt God's creation? I get the feeling this, whatever it is, is beyond taste, beyond pathetic, judging by reactions here.
Why? Are you a vegetarian?

Have you ever been ill and undergone a treatment tested on animals?

Do you wear leather shoes?

I wonder if people here would've reacted the same if it were a pig or a frog, rather than a cute kittie.

It's an animal for crying out loud, as long as it wasn't confined to a cage all of its life, beaten or mistreated and died in a humane manner, what's the bloody problem?

There seem to be lots of hypocrites around here.

There is nothing sinister about this project, apparently the cat was run over by car.

Would it really have mattered if he'd shot the cat, if it were a stray with no kittens and it was a clean shot?

If you think it's okay, why protest so much?
Where have I protested? I'm only protesting about the whiners.

I am adding a photo from this to the book that I have titled "101 uses for a dead cat" by Simon Bond (Google it).

Even though I am a cat fancier I still get a giggle out of this. It is certainly a novel load for testing the load capacity of a multi-rotor.

I would love to take my cat flying when she passes on.

The worst part for me was the spectacularly lame "Magic Milk Straw" advert that ran prior to the main vid.


Now, *that* was profoundly disturbing...

Freighternut, almost exactly what I said to my wife. "now 102 uses for a dead cat". Then told her of my book from years ago. Hope I can find it, I'll put a print of this in.

Years ago it was popular for some guy with an environmental vacuum chamber to be freeze drying beloved (already expired) pets in a natural position. I.E. your cat sitting on your speaker.
