Yes, life is a balance, it's good to save for tomorrow.

Have you seen these?




These jetpacks are cool as hell, they would be so fun to fly! :cool:
I wonder how you land with these, do they have a chute like the wing man flyers, or do they do a vertical type landing with power. I'd like to see how they do it.

Thanks for sharing Red!

They deploy a steerable chute, you can watch it at the end of this video, Yes these are super cool, I would love to do this someday as well as driving on the autobahn and Nurburgring.

Hey Red, thanks answering my question. :)
Those things must be very lightweight, that guy is walking around with it on his back like it's not even there, and that chute didn't look any bigger than one made for just a person.

You don't suppose this could possibly be a set up and the whole thing was a prank on the viewer? Seems far more likely to me than the alternative. :tinfoil:

This was probably a skydiving team. The Golden Knights Skydiving team performs a similar routine. Although most clips of the GK performances show the tails of the pyros, it's kinda hard to say for sure if this was the GK's or a similar team? The fact that they all descended and did not do any maneuvers to gain altitude is another tell.
I just got a kick from the main commentary freak out and some of the background commentaries as well, like the :wtf: remark just before the officer rant. Lol!
This went viral when it came out around this time last year, it even spawned it's own parody toonz. :D

Red, all that old car carnage reminded me of this drag race video, it's been around for awhile, but it's still amazing to see the results! :eek:

This has got to be the definition of "His lucky day", if he was a cat, he'd be be down to 8 lives!

Yep, he had an angel on his shoulder, the high roofline, roll cage, and a healthy adrenaline gland helped too because you know that boy was holding on.
Looks like he had the steering wheel in one hand and whatever there was in his other, but he didn't let go until it was completely stopped.

EDIT: @ 1:13 he was still inside but @ 1:14 his legs were out to his knees and @ 1:16 it was over, still lucky he didn't get pinched.

Hell maybe he wasn't holding on? That upside down spin on the front was spooky, tore the hood off. 1:15

He's very lucky that the rollcage held up, and that he didn't get pinched, that would probably have killed him, or at the very least paralyzed him.
