It's certainly quite a feat of design and engineering, but I don't know why anyone would want to strap that thing to their back and fly any distance! Having said that it was a pity he didn't make it to Spain. I don’t know whether to admire him or pity him.

You have to start somewhere. It makes you think what things will be like in 10-15 years and if that technology will be perfected. thanks for sharing That’s unbelievable…For a short amount of time he looked like iron man.

It would be one hell of an adrenaline rush flying like that. He's basically living out every child's dream of being able to fly without a plane.

Maybe he should seek help from a therapist. And he named his jetpack ICARUS... come on...really? ICARUS? :) While i do understant Rossy`s need for adrenaline, i still can`t believe one mentally normal human being can strat on what is basically a rocket to his bak and try and cross the strait of gibraltar.
