Default What could be cooler than a Challenger?

Take a look at this:

When I was a kid I actually got to see Colonel Keds use this gadget. This was really cool stuff back then
and still is today.

This reminds me of that movie The Rocketeer. Interesting that they might be able to make such an invention. I'm surprised it didn't cost more than this. This also reminds me of an episode of mythbusters where they tested this story that the Japanese claimed that they were able to lift a man a certain distance using something in the sort of 2 liter plastic bottles, similar to what is used to sell soda in. According to them it was a myth.

Now they need to work on the length of time it can be suspended in air. 43 sec is just a taste of the pie. I want several hours if they can extend the time, I believe they will have a great product.

Hell, I don't know why those lawn mower engine powered parasails sell more. If the engine dies...you just float back down to terra firma safely.

And they'd probably fit in the trunk of Chally! ;-)
