Re: Daredevil Jetpack Inventor Falling 50ft Into Lake After Losing Control
the hight it went probably told him that houston we have a problem.
 Quoting: Wake up men


Yeah, if I were to make a wild guess, I would say he likely intended to hover around at a low altitude in front of the crowd. He probably has a mechanism that controls how quickly fuel is used, and that mechanism is what allows him to go higher and lower. Burn more fuel, and it increases altitude. Burn less fuel, and it slowly loses altitude at a safe pace.

If that mechanism malfunctioned and was locked on its highest setting, it would explain why he shot up so quickly. It would also explain why he plummeted from that height. The jetpack burned through all the fuel rapidly and then dropped.

All billionaires, banksters, and people in high-ranking positions of power (both public and private) who have not openly and strongly come out against woke ideology and globalism are our enemies - as are their minions. They are the NWO.

This kind of activity (I would not call it a job) can make these daredevils heaps of money but they can also lose their lives instantaneously or wreck themselves for the rest of their lives.

They are ready and willing to accept the risk or they would choose something else.

That was not a fall.. that was a partially controlled descent
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 83318003


Because he was vaccinated, it would have been a deadly free fall if he wasn't.

I sense a definite lack of confidence in choosing to do his demonstration over a lake. rockon A good decision in this case.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 80290837


Thats a pretty dumb statement

Here let me design something that if it fails i could die and i make sure to only test it over an area full of saw blades pitchforks and rattelsnakes.

What first concerned me was the spiralling.

He was doing 360's the entire time like something had malfunctioned and he had lost directional control
