While not strictly tech-related, this is one of the coolest videos you will see all day. If only we all had the spare time to make stuff like this.

It runs on air. Energy woes solved.
There is a car, think it is only sold in India, that runs off of air like this.

Internal combustion engines "work" via combustion.
This is not a working engine.
You do realize that more than one type of engine exists?
Yes, but the V in V8 refers to the arrangement of the cylinders.
V8 refers to the arrangement of the cylinders? I count 8 cylinders, in what suspiciously looks like a V formation in the video, complete with valves, pistons, and a crank shaft.
V8 doesn't say anything about the motive force behind the pistons - whether it be exploding fossils, exploding corn, or compressed air.
Really bro, is that your argument? You're trying so hard.
I'd agree with Kahm's argument. It's definitely an 8 cylinder engine with two banks of cylinders in a V formation. It's not internal combustion and runs on compressed air, but so what? Lets see an internal combustion engine run without any fuel.
I never said it didn't run, I said it didn't work.
2 things aren't really up for debate here. 1. In common vernacular, the term v8 refers to an 8 cylinder ICE. 2. That Engine doesn't perform work.
Good day.
