Jet pack man flies over Colorado canyon
A daredevil wearing a jet pack has flown over 1,500 feet across a canyon in southern Colorado, America.
The hydrogen peroxide-powered jet pack propelled him at 75 miles per hour meaning Eric Scott crossed Royal Gorge in just 21 seconds.
Despite the 1,100ft drop he did not wear a parachute ... or look down.
The jet pack was made by Jet Pack International and is capable of flying for a maximum of 33 seconds.
Don't get me wrong, credit to Eric, but when are we all going to be zipping around with our own jetpacks? Tomorrows World and countless sci-fi shows promised me I would be flying to work by now.
The flight was a promotional event for Go Fast, a sports and energy drink.
