Very cool, however 30-40 ft in the air, and it blows a clamp or the aluminum bracket breaks........lets just say I hope the camera is rolling. :O :lol

yeah i mean if you do a belly flop that would kinda suck but id say a 30-40 foot drop into the water wouldn't be all that bad. but if it did happen, id love to see a video of that. Hell thats probably less life threatening than driving a Geo Metro to work every day :D

Toward the end, he shows you. It is a kit bolted to the output of the jet drive. Uses high pressure water for the thrust.
Ever see a video of the firemen who ride the firehose?
Same concept, better control and execution.

Looks cool as hell!!! But give it a little time until someone kills themselves on it and every government agency in D.C. will be going nuts regulating the hell out of it.

Damn lawyers will have a field day with this one. I'd better hurry up and buy one before it gets banned :rocker :rocker :rocker
