Daredevil Sets World Record Reaching 207mph On a Rocket-Propelled Bicycle In Just 4.8 Seconds
French daredevil François Gissy set a world record on November 7th, 2014 by reaching 207mph on a homemade rocket-propelled bicycle in 4.8 seconds at The Circuit Paul Ricard race track in Marseille, France. This year, Gissy also created a custom eco-friendly trike, powered by a water tank pressurized to 6,000 PSI, that went from 0 to 60 in half a second.
