They always find the most extraordinary people to present those ideas polished by the perfect performance. It looks like they can easily win a prize for the best performance of scientific stunt!
This time, they demonstrate their new delightful and fantastic innovation together with Jack Hackney in Hamilton Ice Sculptors. This is terrific Lexus NX, which gets around entirely on wheels carved out of ice. Can you imagine, yes It’s a frozen water – Ice!
According to sciencealert.com
Each wheel has been reinforced internally with acrylic spokes to help shoulder the 1,800-kilogram (4,000-pound) weight of the vehicle, and they’ve also been fitted out with cool-looking blue LED lights to show off the tires’ transparency – which would also help highlight if anybody’s nicked your hubcaps.To make sure things didn’t get off to a melty start, it seems the entire vehicle had to be ‘deep frozen’ for five days at –30 degrees Celsius (–22 degrees Fahrenheit) before being driven down a London street.
