Imagine if an Orca (Killer Whale) was coming straight at you while you were jet skiing at your local lakeside resort. Not that you would run into an Orca in a lake, but if you had one of these coming at you - you would. LOL. Check out this pretty cool invention...
The folks over at Hammacher Schlemmer have designed a watercraft that travels underwater and over. It is designed after the famous Orcinus Orca. According to their website "it can hydroplane up to 50 mph over the water's surface and it can cruise up to 25 mph while submerged; its dorsal fin's integrated snorkel ensures air supply to the engine up to a depth of 5'."
You can watch the video below, it seems like a lot of fun. So for those who have plenty of money and you enjoy jet-skiing or boating, you will definitely love this $100,000 beauty.

That looks so fun! Too bad we can't afford it. Oh well, maybe the Romneys will let us borrow one of theirs.
