Not had any problems with YouTube before.
Just re-checked the link. Shouldn't be a problem.
Had a blasted commercial play first, then the main
feature played.

The guy is clever, I'll give him that, also he's good with his hands, BUT,

He's a nutter!

A/ That lie-back bicycle is a death-trap, similar in posture & position vis-a-vis other road traffic as the utterly failed Sinclair trike, and
B/ Our winds would quite simply blow that little lightweight trailer to smithereens.

It seems the guy's got a death wish! He's also a loner.

Sorry I have to disagree with you, have you every ridden one ?
I ride a trike it is a lot of fun and very safe as I'm seen more than "just a cyclist"

Well, if Tom's perpetual negativism should prove correct, at least one of those guys will see death coming...

People notice me more on the recumbent than when I pedal the diamond frame, they are also more likely to let me take the right of way.
Some will not notice you if you were in a semi rig,
The design of that trailer is good, ergonomic. Might be stronger material for the same weight. Cheap and light but probably not going to last for years but maybe months or weeks of use. For the money not bad.

Kirbstone defends:

Richard A., Yes, I have. When I worked in Germany I met and socialised with a fanatic who spoke English, married an American girl and I could spend time with them with MOH who never grasped the German language.

This guy had not one, but Two Liegerader....reclining bicycles. Fine where there are miles & miles of designated segregated bicycle lanes or tracks, as is the case in lots of mainland Continental European countries but when one tries to mix in with moving cars/vans/lorries one simply cannot see! The eyes are far too low. Also the 'profile' of a 'Liegerad' is also far too low and the user runs the very real risk of being just not seen and run over. It's dangerous enough for conventional tall cyclists already.
That push-me-pull-you bike is just a joke!

A fun project, but a backpacking tent and other backpacking gear would be much lighter and easier to obtain.

Bulllseye, Jim.

I had enough trouble against the wind with two large panniers but if I was alot fitter I would prefer something more substantial:

Two great pics, Denimini and nr. 2 redefines 'paddling yer-own canoe!' The guy who actually designed and constructed that must have had more fun than any successor who uses it, mind you.
