Watch A Real-Life JetPack Flown Around The Statue Of Liberty (Video)
November 11, 2015
YES! There have been clunkier attempts at this cool tech… but THIS is the JetPack we’ve waited for; the one that jumped out of comics, cartoons & sci-fi into our reality. You’re likely flashing back to our JetMan posts on here (you should, ’cause they are dope); BUT those flights were launched while the pilots were in the air already. This is not that. These are those Jonny Quest stand-on-the-ground, launch up-and-away joints. And the pilot in this one is flying over water, around the Statue of Liberty, sure. However, this Pack is not pushing water through a tube to propel itself over limited distances and heights.
THIS IS THE REAL TAKE-OFF AND LAND ON YOUR OWN FUN TECH!
(Wow. Blown away. Thank you JB-9 inventor/pilot David Mayman of JetPack Aviation.)
