Amazing breakthrough technology or hoax? 👐 Web AddiCT 🇿🇦

I stumbled across this incredible video some time ago and followed it to the company’s website. There has been mass media coverage from the like of Fox News and CNN, admittedly way back in 2005 and 2006, and they have a patent on their technology, however some people are calling it a hoax.

Now I’m thinking what happened to Steorn’s Orbo, which came out with it’s claim way back in 2005, who then scheduled a demonstration which flunked out and now we’re waiting for them to reshedule their demonstration and prove themselves properly.

What about tons of other scientific/technology “breakthroughs” that people have been claiming that take forever to reach any sort of marketplace? Surely, if what they have is as great as they say, and as it sounds, we should be hearing more about it, via formal news and blogs and more often.

It seems to me we have the capability to do soo much on the clean energy front right now, but we’re taking soo long to see any results. Or maybe I’m just impatient. The breakneck speed of computer technology is making me impatient with technology in other sectors.

Do any of you feel that way too?

It’s a hoax. It is, however, based on some unproven and contentious science involving magnegases.

My guess is the video was made using a 1960s-style oxy-hydrogen welding/brazing torch. And if the gas gets as hot as the surface of the sun, why does he need a petrol hybrid to demonstrate it?

I think he’s over-selling what he really has. I’d love to test his claims, but $7 000 for an old-fashioned welding torch is a little out of my price range, even if it has antique value.

Ja I think we need someone to flesh out all these hoax science breakthroughs. Like Mythbusters for technology 🙂 Is there something like that?

Actually this seems like a perfect job for MythBusters. I haven’t check out their site in, well, forever.

There is a wikipedia page on this topic:

So I would be tempted to believe it, but I completely agree with you, we have access to all this amazing technology but it never hits the consumer market. Do oil companies have anything to do with it? Possibly, you can theorise about that a lot. I guess, start building these machines, and see if somebody wants to buy you out. 🙂

Just for today. You're one too.
