jet-propelled skydiving
Oh, man- how I would have loved to get in the air with this guy back when I was still an active skydiver/videographer. Swiss skydiver/inventor/lunatic Yves Rossy takes a twin-jet wing on his back during a skydive, reaching horizontal speeds of 120-300 km/h and 1000 ft/min vertical climbs. Dude.
I used to be proud of my horizontal tracking, but yeegads - that's scary cool.
