Just when we were starting to get fatigued by fidget spinner news, somebody put three rockets on a huge metal one.

Thanks to YouTuber TheBackyardScientist, we finally get to see a huge aluminum fidget spinner get the rocket engine treatment.

The custom spinner has a 6 inch radius, so it has to travel about 37 inches to make a full circle. It spins 88 times per second, which means the tip is traveling a ridiculous 188.182 MPH...sometimes directly into his car. Check out the chaos above.
