Wow... it's like we're living in the future... amazing the useless crap people can come up with. I'd love a jetpack but isn't there more important things for people to be inventing? Like 100% efficient solar pannels and stuff? jeez. oh well... we may all die from global warming but at least we will go out with sweet rides.. |

30 minx2 = 1 hrso the 30 miles every 30 minutes for the jetpack is 60mph 60mph divided by 5(galofgas)=12mph =/=6mph

It's not a jet pack. It's a personal helicopter, because it uses fans for lift |

sweet, i can now waste thousands of dollars, for something that gets 6 mpg, plus about $20 to fill (based on the current average, my motorcycle takes less), and fly something to which almost anyone would be allowed to fly with no training and no way of saving myself if the engine dies, or runs out of gas, yes i'm looking forward to this |

Wow! I can fly for 30 mins!!! I wonder how much do I have to pay to a few bystanders to hold the jetpack for those 30 mins. |

if you have 100k to spend on a jet pack, then I think your not to worried about the price of gas. |

So it only gets 6 mpg? That's pretty useless. |

It was only to show that it worked, Moenkie, I'm sure it can fly a lot higher. |
