Sounds like something Robin would say to Batman,"Holy flying Beetles Batman"

Yes some beetles can fly, the insect types but Volkswagon Beetles?

Couldn't believe it till I saw it, I make a few models and over on a modeling forum found the below u-tube clip.

Flying Beetles during the war, at the end of the footage is a Beetle cartwheeling along the ground after I presume being dropped from an aeroplane, what the?

"You have heard the saying pigs might fly, but Volkswagon Beetles"

Love to chase up the full doco never knew of this, does anyone else now anymore on the flying beetles of wartime Germany? Absolutely bazar!



Found some more, come on is this for real or is this a u-tube hoax?
Whatever it is it's pretty amazing to watch!

Look closely and you can see smoke, needs a new set of rings!


This one looks fake?


This is an unbelievable bit of footage!

seem to recall this on AVD before, as I recall it's a hoax.
I dream of a day when a chicken can cross a road without being asked for it's motive!

I feel sorry for anyone who thought this was real. Even for a split second 😂
