Jet Pack Flight Over Royal George

For years daredevil Eric Scott has been dreaming of flying, but not by plane, or hot air balloon or even catapult. Eric Scott has dreamed of flying using a thing of sci-fi legend, drum roll please...A Jet Pack!! This weekend he realized his dream by piloting his hydrogen peroxide powered jet pack at a speed of over 75 mph. While not exactly Eric's first flight, it was his longest and definitely the most dangerous, this flight took Eric over the Royal Gorge!! The total flight time was 21 seconds and covered a distance of 1500 feet. Fortunately Jetpack International has offered the T-73 model up for sale for the measly fee of $200,000 but that comes with comprehensive training! The T-73 is their top of line model that can lift a 180lb person and carry them in flight for 9 minutes covering a distance of 11 miles!! How would that be as a way to get around! Yeah I know this breaks from the over all theme of UpaDowna but come on, seriously who hasn't dreamed of owning their very own jet pack??? Maybe one day I will really get to be Boba Fett!!

I don't know Yeti, I expect

I don't know Yeti, I expect your jetpack ambitions will result in something less like Boba Fett and more like Wile E. Coyote. Regardless, I'll show up to watch either way.
