If there’s one thing that people will just keep trying to invent, it’s the personal jetpack. That day may be closer than we thought, however, as Rick Herron of Skywalker Jets (warning: flash site with cheesy music) has made a prototype rocket pack that can propel a person around in the air for about five minutes – best of all, there are no unfortunate barbecued-flesh issues with the design, either. So (pending further investment, R&D, FAA approval – and your payment of $200k, of course), you could be Boba Fett-ing around in style any day now.
