Same engine as the old doodlebugs dropping their stuff during WW2 - you can buy these on Ebay

Or even one of these french engines (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yy4KH88tLSY&feature=related)

Those things are epicaly loud, my flatmate had a little one that had just enough thrust to move a small benchvice we had it held in. So bout 5 lbs, the noise however, was way louder than an escort engine with only headers on it (different flatmate). For that size engine, I'd hope he had earplug under his ear muffs!

French guy SERIOUSLY needs one of those drag car fragment shields, holy fuck.
Imagine those turbines exploding at 120,000rpm.
