I can see it now! You're flying along enjoying the view when you decide to land on top of the neighborhood office building for a short break. A few minutes later you take off and then look behind only to see the roof on fire from the heat of the jet blast! :gaah::gaah:

You did notice, right, that all the flying was above the water. That's so if the jets crapped out the landing would be softer! And the landing pad, literally a pad, was protected by a steel sheet!

I didn't see a life jack on that guy, but I did notice the ice on the water.

This just seems like an engineering exercise... kind of like turning a Lotus Esprit into a submarine...
:shocked: Oh... that was done also! :D
They could just as well have strapped the propulsion unit to a toilet... it would have made "The view from the throne" a whole lot nicer! :roflblack:
