Wow! That was way more powerful than I expected! Hopefully not powerful enough to crack the concrete underneath 😂

Did we already know that the jets would be angled sideways? I was expecting vertical jets to maximize the upward force, but maybe it's more complicated than that.

you really do not want to create a bidet for superheavy. They just need to create steam gap between exhaust and seel.
