UNBELIEVABLE: A Man Makes Drones From His Dead Animals

Because he liked birds and didn't care whether it terrified people, a man transformed his cherished dead cat Orville into a drone.


By transforming them into levitating toys, Bart Jansen has elevated the experience of losing a family pet.

The Dutch taxidermist created the "Orvillecopter," a remote-controlled drone out of his dead cat.


Orville, who was killed by an automobile in 2012, inspired the creation of the "half cat, half machine."


Jansen told Channel 4 that as soon as he got his hands on Orville's body, he "immediately knew" he wanted to do something with it.


He told the presenter, "I was going to make a point out of his premature death.


So, in a move that can only be characterized as incredibly bizarre, Jansen dismantled Orville's dead body, packed it, and gave it four powerful propellers to enable it to fly.


Since then, Jansen has established his own business called Copter Company and has made a fortune by transforming household pets—from hamsters to ostriches and sharks—into unsettling flying vehicles.


Prior to bringing their pets to Jansen for conversion into drones, customers must taxidermize their pets.


Jansen even created a helicopter out of a cow for his day job as a solar panel engineer.


The Dutchman now appears to want to locate creatures that are large enough for him to fly in.


He stated: "If I was going to fly, it had to be in a peculiar manner. Therefore, we have been considering creatures that are large enough to fly in."


It happens at the same time as a family made an attractive rug out of their pet golden retriever for their living room.


A fierce debate has erupted online about the unconventional memorial of their cherished pet after surprised social media users posted about it.


For the grieving family, the unusual item was made by the Australian business Chimera Taxidermy so the dog could "go home."


Owner Maddy, 29, stated that the family's pet was preserved as a pelt to provide a lasting tribute.


According to her, it had been "tanned and transformed to leather so the fur won't fall out," enabling it to occupy a prominent position in the client's lounge.


The method was compared by the taxidermist to keeping a loved one's ashes because the family "wanted to save a part of him forever."
