And unlike a real jet pack, it doesn't require a lot of skill and training to be able to do.

Here's a link to an FAQ about it:

This is something I'm definitely interested in trying.

We are booked to do this. I talk smack, but wonder if I will have the balls to do it.

I could probably deal with the zip wire, (It's just basically the same thing as an amusement park ride and even though I have serious issues with unenclosed heights, I've learned to handle those...and it probably doesn't last all that long...)

What I'd have real problems with would be walking across that Indiana Jones And The Temple Of Doom-type bridge they show in the video....

That's not happening...

The only way I'm going across a bridge like that is if I'm being chased by cannibals...

Bunch of hosers. I'll wait on the beach with a pitcher of margaritas.

Yes, well as a Welshman, I'm sure you have many relatives you could contact in that regard... :P

Pah. Nothing can hold a candle to the original:



(Remarkable how the boys could make such a din when their electric guitars aren't actually plugged into anything! On the plus side, they manage to sound just like the studio version on the record!)
