Is this thing safe do you think???? Interesting concept but I have to wonder about the safety.

Safety isn't a big issue. The chimney still sucking the heat out of the room is though.
 
Been around a long, long time. Hey, it's got "aerodynamic tubes"...what's to worry about? Rick
 
Maybe if it was attached to an airtight door but then you might as well get a stove at that point.
