Viktor Grebennikov's Flying Platform

Regarding the "flying witch" there was a video posted on youtube,

showing a human in a hovering device, which remebered me of the Flying Platform of Viktor Grebennikov I was stumbling over a few years ago in the internet. The youtube comments do not describe what is shown, and 99% of the comments are nonsensical. Maybe the video is real, because of Grebennikov:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viktor_Grebennikov said:
Viktor Stepanovich Grebennikov (1927-2001) was a Russian scientist, naturalist and entomologist who claimed to have invented a levitation platform which operated by virtue of insect body parts attached to the underside. Grebennikov wrote detailed accounts of his 1988 discovery, which involved an accident whilst examining chitin shells. He also wrote of his experiencies flying over the Russian countryside.

Although popular with many readers who dream of unpowered human flight, Grebennikov's work is criticized by scientists. His reports are suspiciously devoid of conclusive proof or public demonstration. He claimed that his camera shutter was jammed during the flights due to a time-warping force-field generated by the secret geometric power of chitin.
Grebennikov allegedly wrote a book "My World" whose Chapter 5 "Flight" was translated into English and is hosted on a few sites:

In this chapter "Flight", Grebennikov describes how he - while working with insects - accidentally discovers his Cavity Structural Effect (CSE) and anti-gravitational effects of a certain kind of wasp-eggs. This effects allegedly are caused by special internal geometric configuration and/or materials of the eggs. He mounted arrays of the wasp eggs in a simple wooden platform. The hovering movements were controlled by aligning the eggs relatively to each other by a simple mechanism. Grebennikov describes time dilution, invisibility, psychic effects and other strange phenomena while using the platform. He allegedly destroyed the platform in fear of potential mis-use, got ill and died in a confused psychic state thereafter.

On the mentioned sites, Grebennikov's title of "research" is also described as:

Natural phenomena of biological antigravitation associated with invisibility in insects and the Grebennikov Cavity Structural Effect
The original russian Text was first published by Juri N. Cherednichenko (Laboratory of biophysics Scientific Research Institute of General Pathology and Human Ecology, Russian Acadamy of Med. Sciences Novosibirsk-city, http://www(dt)sinor(dt)ru/~che/grebennikov(dt)htm). It was translated into English by an undisclosed Russian emigrant, which was paid $600 by J. Decker, host of www(dt)keelynet(dt)com.

If Grebennikov did indeed fly with his platorm, and the core of the story is true, there is surely a large amount of disinformation. If the quoted sites are known disinfo slingshots and this topic belongs to New Age COINTELPRO I also do not know. The presentation of the information is somewhat inconsistent which reminds me of the sacred geometry disinfo of Dan Winter.

But anyhow, there is this youtube video and the picture above.

I consider it as possible.

What do you think?

Edit: Since I watched the youtube video above without sound, I did not hear that the hovering device is powered by an ordinary small jet engine. Nevertheless, it reminded me of Grebennikov.
 
We read a lot about this guy some years ago and had some exchanges with a few people. I'll have to go through my email folders to see what's there - if anything of interest.
 
Resurrecting a dead thread here because I just got wind of Grebennikov due to some links given by drygol in this thread: http://www.cassiopaea.org/forum/index.php?topic=19088.0

Just thought I'd add that the video narrative mentions that this particular device is powered by a jet engine, and it carries fuel on board. So it might not be a replication of Grebennikov's alleged device but it looks really fun!

Edit: whoops, sorry Data, I missed your edit where you mention the jet engine.
