I like the design. Can it carry some decent payload?

See "Seagull" design. Its a very easy piece to craft and flys farther.

This plane is absolutely GORRGEOUS. Not only does it look like a super sick sci fi spacecraft, but it has the most beautifully smooth flight trajectory I've EVER seen in a paper airplane. This man is a genius.

I've been following these paper airplane videos to both amuse my kids and teach them about aerodynamics. Thank you for doing this! John Collins is easy to follow, fun to listen to, and the end result actually works great!

[@yorgeabbottart]

The hero we never asked for but deserve thank you John

[@damnumonkeyballs]

This is so amazing. This guys absolute love of passing on knowledge is amazing. Beautiful human being. Thanks for this in these harsh times.

Did I really just watched the whole thing? Wow, and tomorrow I have to wake up early

If Brian Cranston played the guy who designed model airplanes in flight of the Phoenix but pretended to be a aerospace engineer so he wouldn't get left behind.

I used to use the waterbomb base as a kid and never even knew it! (Is it waterbomb? It sounds like he’s saying waterbong or waterbomb)

[@calummacfarlane8476]

I Used to have a book which had a design for an aeroplane with a cube you could fill with water at the front. It started like this, hence waterbomb base.

[@samarthshegde11110]

1:45 We need John to go in- depth on those two airplanes as well

[@u4ia_fubar_75]

WOW! you make the best plains iv ever seen👍where were you when I was a kid😂 I would have lost the plot after 6 folds and ripped it up and start crying lmao🤣

[@trevorbrown5048]

Helpful hint Set the speed of the vid slower to figure out how to fold

[@BurstKnocks]

My class is doing science in school, and we are learning about airplanes, so when I learnt how to make the Susan I taught it to one berson in my class and everybody else was like "WOW" can you teach me pleaaaaase. And now everyone in my class nows how to make the Susan, my teacher even explained to the class about the plane, and how the little folds at the back make it come back up. Thank you for your time

If Tom hanks was really into paper airplanes instead of typewriters, this would be him

Just finished, but now I have a paper robot asking about an Allspark...

even if this didn't fly well it looks cool enough to make.

Question, how effective will be the combination of canard and suzanne design?

I'm the only one got the chance comment 5th 😀

[@MastrKillz]

I like the part where he took off his glasses to talk to me ❤️

[@jadianradiator2761]

Technically the thrust is actually a factor of your body, and _not_ the paper airplane. The closest factor of the airplane would be drag. But drag technically does nothing about thrust. You obviously meant "speed" and not "thrust". X thrust is the same strength regardless of how fast or slow you're actually going

[@isaacgamer6445]

No "thrust" is stating how hard you can throw it based on a bar

[@joker0408]

hope this guy has his own page creating just origamis

this is amazing i never could make a good paper plane

hi

[@Mysterialic]

Can only imagine how many papercuts he has/had.

[@radorigami]

Probably not many. Folding paper doesn’t give you papercuts if you know what you’re doing. It’s like saying someone who reads a lot gets papercuts.

[@poopiee7861]

Thank you for an easy paper airplane I'm not kidding its easy
