Ok get this. There's this guy named Yves Rossy who's designed literally a jet-pack. This isn't like in the bond movies or whatever, it is actually a set of wings, with jet engines that you strap to your back. Basically, he jumps out of planes, his wings fold open and then jets around. He recently flew across the english channel:

He's a Centurion!

That does look super-fun.

I seem to remember seeing that video a year or two ago. My mouth dropped open like this I was so amazed:

I saw that in the news a few months ago. That's incredible. Now he needs a gold helmet.

Saw that on the news one day. Awesome!

Same here. If only those were mass-marketed.

Anyways,
watching that was pretty amazing.

Those things should be mass-marketed. Just watch out for the hoodlums.

Give

me

a

jet-pack!!!

I have always wanted to fly like that.

That lucky son of a monkey!

the guy has tons of experience as a pilot, so this isn't a run of the mill thing that anyone could use. You gotta know your aeronautics.

That's what Space School is for!!

I'd probably kill myself on it while trying to imitate Boba Fett. With my luck, I'd probably fly into the sarlacc!
