There can be a "pilot", but wouldn't be called that. Alternatively the thing can move on it's own as well.

gasoline powered?

A dirigible?

Catfish · 04-17-23, 01:24 PM

^ a dirigible would be better than doing short hops

And the pilot isn't one, and this thing does not need one.

A giant, gasoline-burning frog

Grass cutter?

Ostfriese · 04-17-23, 02:50 PM

No to both.

I said it is fictional, but heavily based on something real. To say it differently: it only became special after stuff had been added to a very real thing.

Fictional in the future?

Eichhörnchen · 04-18-23, 05:58 AM

Can it perform these "hops" in real life - or only in the world of fiction?

No, in the present (when it was released/first shown/published/...).

Rather difficult to answer without giving too much away. The world it played in was supposed to be as close to the real life as possible, but I'd say that in "our" real world the jumps still aren't possible unless you have major external support (an elephant can jump 50m if you strap a rocket onto its back, but on its own it can't jump that far.)

Movie or TV?
