Since 2004, the company behind the Hotelicopter has been working to modify a Soviet-made Mil V-12 into two world firsts: the "world's biggest helicopter" and the "world's first flying hotel."

Want to take bets on how long it takes before this thing crashes and kills everyone onboard?

Looks more like a flying (http://www.onlinegames-free.co.uk/category_skill.html) coffeemachine... I build somehting like that with lego bricks as a child. And it didn't work either ;-)

I would love to see that thing in the air. lol

And only then if it looked cool, I would consider going on it. Though I don't see the point of a helicopter hotel, because there are already hotels on coaches and airplanes. So really there is no need, but I would really like to go on there! :)

looks cool but very unrealistic, I would really feel my life is in danger If that monster lifts off.

For those who don't see the point, I think it should work as one of those cruise trips, only in the air

A millionaire tycoon... With much money to spend, they are the types to think up things like these.
