No, it's just a water-walking horse.
A Balloon Supported Water Walking Horse...BSWWH for short. Pronounced bsh!
The two Jesuses in the background don't have balloons!
They're on a carriage that's like pontooned at the bottom, being pulled by the horse and driver who each have their own balloons.
edit oh wait d'you mean the ones in the back right my bad dk about them
Back right?
I see two in the back left and two more in the back middle without balloons. The two in the back right are the carriage passengers.
Forget the balloons. I want that water treadmill unicycle!

I'm glad we got ubiquitous smartphones instead of only rich people having flying cars.
Still, I'm promoting way, way more punk in our cyberpunk.
The rich do have flying cars. They just call them private jets. The rich own mansions (huge houses) all over the world, private islands, mega yachts that contain smaller yachts, their own submarines, and now they even have their own rocket ships
Yeah, but the police don't hover over us in Spinners as in Bladerunner. They still have to chopper from helipad to airport and ride off in air traffic, so less in our faces.
Their superfluous greenhouse emissions fit the cyberpunk vibe though.
We got much better things though.
Requires disposable income :(
Balloons and watercycles wouldn't?
Balloons are surprisingly cheap for a finite gas resource
They were very into helium and balloons
I love that the balloons are far too small. Like they didn't understand the elements and buoyancy well enough to know the balloons have to be much larger. Not like we have negative mass particles.
Obviously they were assuming balloons were filled with supervacuum. We have had 100 years and not invented even that.
Truly we have failed our ancestors.

Well, I guess they figured it'd take another 100 years to calculate that correctly, so they just winged it for the picture.
I'm pretty sure scientists back then could have told you that these balloons are too small. The person(s) who drew that picture most likely wasn't a scientist, which is why it looks how it looks.

Not sure how they are walking and not just splashing in place.
And you don't have an issue with the carriage, with three people on it, where the only balloon is on the horse?
Whoever made this was an artist and sucked at physics

If we had spent the time working on the real problems, this would have already been solved.

I feel ripped off yet again!
Literally just build a bridge, you hyper-individualistic consumer-centric assholes.

I do like how it has the sensibilities at the time. Being super dangerous to anyone who uses it.
"Deutscher Kakao" ๐คก
"German cocoa"
They just thought they'd do everything they did back then, but on water? And with mini blimps?

There are two people water-walking without balloons behind the two women on the left. Time travelers? Aliens? The JFK assassins? We deserve the truth!
