alfisti beat me to it... it's definitely a pulse-jet.  As soon as I heard the sound I thought of the V1.

My 1st thought was a messed up ramjet - but yeah it's a reconstituted buzz-bomb engine.

those propane canisters are pretty much bomb proof these days.

the buttmake the beast with two backss at the columbine massacre tried to detonate them and couldn't.  the valve has a safety cutoff inside and the skin of the canister is absurdly strong -- i've seen 50 bmg rounds go thru them but nothing less.

very slick video though!  me likey!

Man my neighbors would be totally pissed if I bought one of those. So is that basically a giant propane powered saxophone?

Very safe, when you wear the right gear ;D
