Rocket-Powered Grocery Cart

IT’S the ultimate trolley dash. Wacky Andy Tyler sits in a 50mph shopping cart after fitting a JET ENGINE.

Its metal glows red hot at temperatures up to 600°C, so he has to sit with his back to a heat shield.

Was it really taking this fellow that long to buy his groceries?
