This student from Arnhem (Netherlands) is becoming a phenomenon of YouTube. The giant bike video, one of his unique inventions, had more than 600,000 views in just two weeks.

Bosch said: 'Last time I tried to change some parts and components in machines to make a difference. Now that I am in college, I want a bigger project. '

Bosch made drawings for the giant bike 6 months ago. After that, he began collecting parts and components from acquaintances. Therefore, the price of this giant bike is quite cheap.

Bosch said: 'It was great when it was done and when I used it for the first time. However, I'm not sure if it's legal for me to use the car on the road. '

Bosch also said that when he saw the car moving, some people showed great interest, but others seemed to be tolerant and asked him to move away. However, Bosch seemed very sympathetic: 'I know that the car can be a nuisance for other vehicles, especially at the time of work every Monday morning when there is a strange bike hindering work. Their move '.

Before becoming a Dutch university student, Bosch served as a mechanical engineer and worked at an oil drilling plant. Bosch is particularly interested in unique combinations. Last year, he converted kitchen appliances into cars and airplanes.

Bosch also said that enlarging the front wheel is a way of expressing the irony of an energy-consuming car today. This giant bike can only carry 1 person but does not consume energy at all. Therefore, with this bike, Bosch hopes people will pay attention to the lowest possible level of energy sources.

'My friends and family give my ideas very crazy but they are also amazed at my efforts. I don't know if this is art. I just want to make it a joy ' - Bosch said.

Since Bosch's videos are widely spread, many museums and fairs have expressed their desire to exhibit his unique products.
