    Ideas for a crazy product / service

    Me and my friend are discussing this on the bus (boring). What is the craziest product you can think of?

    Mine:

    Bus ejection seats:
    Eject someone from their seats, so the bus don't have to stop.

    NOTICE: We does not guarantee that you will land safely on the road, we do not have seats that have 100% accuracy for shooting people out the roof. We also do not insure any injury resulting in / or beside the bus. We do not guarantee that you will not get hit by another car / or hit by the bus. We also are not responible if you land on top of somebody's house or part of their property.

    Well the confidentiality clause where I work precvents me from divluging any useful information, but I can say in involves a hula hoop and a powerful microprocessor.
    I have said too much already.
    If you own a piece of land and there is an volcano on it and it ruins a
    nearby town, do you have to pay for the property damage?

    Heavy Rock Power!

    A friend of mine suggested that the best place to situate a power station is on the top of a mountain with lots of heavy bolders at hand. Power can then be generate be throwing a boulder over the edge and lowering it down on a cable, where the end of the cable is connected to a generator. When the bolder reaches the bottom, another can simply be lowered down.

    From there, we went on to design a rock powered ship, where the ship gets its energy by dropping a supply of heavy rocks overboard.

    And even a rock powered helicopter! However, this had the disadvantage that it can only take off from the roof of a high building.
