How does he land?

Here's an article about it: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/live/articles/news/worldnews.html?in_article_id=566434&in_page_id=1811

Here's a longer vid that shows him landing: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8zrG3B2_Juw

He lands with a chute that's part of the jetpack. Also, in an emergency, he has an emergency cord that will drop the whole pack, and deploy a secondary chute system.

meet george jetson!!

I saw that on TV as well. I'll be the first to say if that were me testing out some prototype I would shat my pants, in the mountains no less.

This v. Clarkson in a ZR1 v. Capt. Slow and Hamster in a Mooney (it'll rape a POS Cesna). First one across Eastern Europe. My money is on the ZR1.

That would be neat to watch. The only thing about those races is that it would not matter if it were a ZR1 or a Dodge Neon. It's not like they utilize the car's racing ability the whole way there. And the fastest they ever go on those public roads is about how fast most any other car could go.

They go as fast as their Land Rover's will go... those are the chase/camera vehicles.

If they have Land Rover HSE's with the S/C motor... they can cover a lot of ground while filming. :D

I want one :(
