Flying Tent - It's cool?

I found Flying tent from kickstarter, so what are you thinking when you see a movie?

Looks like it's attempting to solve a problem that doesn't exist with a well thought out hammock camping rig.

My hammock rig packs smaller, is bigger and just as versatile, all about the same weight. And if I have to go to ground my tarp has a much larger footprint that will allow me to be more comfortable than a flexible coffin. Neat idea and all, but not for me.

At least the price isn't outrageous. I'm curious exactly how "water-resistant" the cover is and how that would effect the sweat box it creates if it's not breathable

Looks like Clark will be firing up another lawsuit.
Dang does that hammock look extra short?

It looks like a suspended casket

Yep, Clark will be all over this.

Those were my initial thoughts. Not priced crazy, but it says "waterproof" in one place and "water-resistant" in others. Either way, I'd think condensation might be an issue. These similar systems are just a bit too claustrophobic for me, but might work well for others.

What the?!?! Well, they did manage to create the world's largest animated .gif. 46MB!
