That may be why he is wearing a Bell helmet.

Bob, where do you always find the perfect picture for every post? That looks like a balloon fire. :shocked:

By the way, he did have a guy with a fire extinguisher ready on the ground if that would have been helpful.

Very Cool...

As long as you are over water it seems fine. I see he also lands on a grate and not solid ground. Like Chryslers jet car way back with the problem of what to do with the heat coming off the engine in populated areas...like a traffic jam...:yikes: I'm good....

I hate to be the conspiracy theory type guy, but I have my doubts about this. We didn't really see him take off or land. There was a jump in the video in both cases. Just thinking out loud.

That is not being a conspiracy thearist, that's just critical thinking. Conspiracy would be how it's used. Like flying it into a building and it collapses in free fall speed.

Details are being kept deliberately scant, but Zapata has released the following figures: The Flyboard Air can go as high as 10,000 feet (3,048 m), with 10 minutes of flight possible and a top ground speed around 150 km/h (93 mph).:yikes:
