The Orvillecopter...

The Orvillecopter by Dutch artist Jansen flies in central Amsterdam as part as the KunstRAI art festival June 3, 2012. Jansen said the Orvillecopter is part of a visual art project which pays tribute to his cat Orville, by making it fly after it was killed by a car.

...as flown by Orville. Or rather flown by Orville's former owner, as that's only a taxidermied version of Orville. Yeah, I probl'ly should have just let you assume Orville was alive and piloting his own destiny. Is it too late to yell SPOILER ALERT?

  1. #1, it's pretty cool. #2, I thought it must be torture for a cat to be put in that position. #3, the fact that it's his dead taxidermied cat makes it kind of creepy.

    On the other hand, my brain is trying to formulate a joke that involves "swinging a dead cat." ;P
