You mean I can't tie rockets to my back and fly? There went my plan for dealing with local traffic.

Did you see the mythbusters episode about the rocket chair?

[Darrell KSR]

From the car?

I saw one episode where they show an ejection rocket from a car; is that the one?

They've done a rocket surfboard thing, got that working pretty good on a pure distance basis. Built an ancient Chinese rocket chair that was better at making bbq of whatever you put it in than getting lift. The car ejection seat was compressed air. These others were with real rockets and massive burn damage.

They also did the balloon chair, and it works pretty good. If you go get weather balloons you can definitely get somewhere, but probably not all the way over the Atlantic. Cutter John went all the way to non-existence with it.

I have four episodes of Myth Busters downloaded it to my phone now that I have not watched. Maybe one of them is the rocket chair.

They tried to build an ancient Turkish rocket thing too, he stood up in it, it ended badly for the pilot as you'd expect.
