I thought that all the strong rope would be at least semi-visible.</p>JamarMon, 25 Sep 2006 04:44:32 -0000http://www.ohgizmo.com/2006/09/20/video-of-homemade-air-powered-jet-pack/#comment-1759342<p>It is just a game where this guy thinks that he is going through an experiment, he don't know that he is attached to a string. The funny thing is that he thinks everything was true. Don't try to find the fifth paw to the cat please.</p>OsvaLThu, 21 Sep 2006 14:40:43 -0000http://www.ohgizmo.com/2006/09/20/video-of-homemade-air-powered-jet-pack/#comment-1759341<p>No you are incorrect my friend. You do not need a rudder to change direction. Just changing the direction the nozzles are pointing should be enough to change direction. Ever heard the term "thrust vectoring"? I am guessing you haven't</p>JD52Thu, 21 Sep 2006 10:05:43 -0000http://www.ohgizmo.com/2006/09/20/video-of-homemade-air-powered-jet-pack/#comment-1759340<p>He's airborn way to long but under the right circumstances it might work.<br>Mythbusters (<a href="http://dsc.discovery.com/fansites/mythbusters/mythbusters.html)" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" title="http://dsc.discovery.com/fansites/mythbusters/mythbusters.html)">http://dsc.discovery.com/fa...</a> tested this in an episode. <br>Not able to find the clip now but I'm sure it's out there on the Internet somewhere :)</p>Magnus|SwedenThu, 21 Sep 2006 08:20:32 -0000http://www.ohgizmo.com/2006/09/20/video-of-homemade-air-powered-jet-pack/#comment-1759339<p>So many people say this is a fake, i still dont think so, i to trided the water bottle thingy mah bob, i wired together 5! trust me, i think it would work.</p>AlexThu, 21 Sep 2006 07:55:56 -0000http://www.ohgizmo.com/2006/09/20/video-of-homemade-air-powered-jet-pack/#comment-1759338<p>you would need a rudder or wing of some kind to change direction, duh it IS rocket science! without one you spin out of control. i can see this acually werking, i once made a 2 litre popbottle travel .5 km in the air. just from air pressure.</p>soopergoomanThu, 21 Sep 2006 02:40:11 -0000http://www.ohgizmo.com/2006/09/20/video-of-homemade-air-powered-jet-pack/#comment-1759337<p>Sorry but this is very clearly a fake. He spins around but never changes direction. Still a riot to watch though.</p>JD52Wed, 20 Sep 2006 17:15:21 -0000http://www.ohgizmo.com/2006/09/20/video-of-homemade-air-powered-jet-pack/#comment-1759336<p>Yeah...totally fake.
